  • 00:01:26.342 --> 00:01:32.849
  • Jeffress: maps can be very, very important.
  • 00:01:32.849 --> 00:01:36.252
  • I learned that lesson the hard way.
  • 00:01:36.252 --> 00:01:39.389
  • A few years ago, a pastor friend of mine in canada had invited me
  • 00:01:39.389 --> 00:01:44.527
  • To come and speak at his church.
  • 00:01:44.527 --> 00:01:46.629
  • And they were gonna have an evening service at 7 o'clock, so
  • 00:01:46.629 --> 00:01:49.098
  • I got up early and i flew to winnipeg, manitoba.
  • 00:01:49.098 --> 00:01:53.636
  • Got there in plenty of time for the service, it was about 4 p.m.
  • 00:01:53.636 --> 00:01:56.472
  • In the afternoon when i arrived, and so i picked up my luggage
  • 00:01:56.472 --> 00:02:00.276
  • And went outside to wait for the pastor to pick me up at
  • 00:02:00.276 --> 00:02:03.046
  • The curbside.
  • 00:02:03.046 --> 00:02:04.514
  • I waited and waited and waited, he didn't show up.
  • 00:02:04.514 --> 00:02:09.519
  • So i pulled out my confirmation letter thinking maybe i got the
  • 00:02:09.519 --> 00:02:12.355
  • Time wrong.
  • 00:02:12.355 --> 00:02:13.723
  • I went back in to call him at the pay phone.
  • 00:02:13.723 --> 00:02:15.225
  • As i looked at the letter, i noticed up in the left high-end
  • 00:02:15.225 --> 00:02:18.228
  • Corner that the return address did not correspond with where
  • 00:02:18.228 --> 00:02:22.065
  • I was.
  • 00:02:22.065 --> 00:02:24.334
  • I mean, i had assumed that he was in the same place he was the
  • 00:02:24.334 --> 00:02:27.337
  • Last time i came to preach for him.
  • 00:02:27.337 --> 00:02:29.539
  • I didn't know he had changed churches.
  • 00:02:29.539 --> 00:02:32.108
  • I was in winnipeg, manitoba, but i noticed the return address was
  • 00:02:32.108 --> 00:02:36.579
  • Vancouver, british columbia.
  • 00:02:36.579 --> 00:02:40.516
  • Now, not knowing anything about canada, i went into the airline
  • 00:02:40.516 --> 00:02:44.954
  • Counter and i said, "look, i've got a problem.
  • 00:02:44.954 --> 00:02:47.090
  • I need to be in vancouver in an hour.
  • 00:02:47.090 --> 00:02:49.892
  • Is there a bus i can take to get me to vancouver?"
  • 00:02:49.892 --> 00:02:53.563
  • They did exactly what you did.
  • 00:02:53.563 --> 00:02:55.131
  • They started laughing.
  • 00:02:55.131 --> 00:02:56.699
  • They said, "a bus?
  • 00:02:56.699 --> 00:02:58.368
  • Vancouver is 1,500 miles west of here."
  • 00:02:58.368 --> 00:03:03.373
  • They said, "but you're in luck, we've got a plane that is
  • 00:03:03.373 --> 00:03:06.409
  • Leaving right now for vancouver, and if you'll run down to the
  • 00:03:06.409 --> 00:03:09.545
  • Gate, you can get on the plane.
  • 00:03:09.545 --> 00:03:10.980
  • It's a three-hour flight, but you'll gain two hours going
  • 00:03:10.980 --> 00:03:14.617
  • West, and you can make it in time."
  • 00:03:14.617 --> 00:03:17.020
  • So i ran as quickly as i could down to the gate.
  • 00:03:17.020 --> 00:03:20.923
  • Apparently, word of my problem preceded me because when i went
  • 00:03:20.923 --> 00:03:25.428
  • To give my ticket to the ticket taker, she handed me a map of
  • 00:03:25.428 --> 00:03:29.299
  • Canada and said, "read this, it might help you the next time you
  • 00:03:29.299 --> 00:03:33.002
  • Come to our country."
  • 00:03:33.002 --> 00:03:38.841
  • Maps can be very important, especially when you're traveling
  • 00:03:38.841 --> 00:03:44.213
  • In an unfamiliar territory.
  • 00:03:44.213 --> 00:03:47.050
  • To many people, bible prophecy is such a territory.
  • 00:03:47.050 --> 00:03:51.654
  • I'm convinced one reason people are so confused about bible
  • 00:03:51.654 --> 00:03:54.924
  • Prophecy is they've never seen the big picture before.
  • 00:03:54.924 --> 00:03:57.860
  • They've never seen the map, and so they're confused about it.
  • 00:03:57.860 --> 00:04:00.963
  • You know, most christians have a vague understanding
  • 00:04:00.963 --> 00:04:03.333
  • About the end-times.
  • 00:04:03.333 --> 00:04:04.667
  • They know things are supposed to get worse and worse, jesus is
  • 00:04:04.667 --> 00:04:07.236
  • Coming back, and we're gonna live happily ever after.
  • 00:04:07.236 --> 00:04:10.306
  • But if you ask most christians to explain the events of bible
  • 00:04:10.306 --> 00:04:13.710
  • Prophecy: "what are those major events?
  • 00:04:13.710 --> 00:04:16.012
  • Put them in order.
  • 00:04:16.012 --> 00:04:17.347
  • To find them, what is the key scripture that talks about
  • 00:04:17.347 --> 00:04:20.083
  • Each one?"
  • 00:04:20.083 --> 00:04:21.451
  • Most christians would break out in a cold sweat.
  • 00:04:21.451 --> 00:04:23.586
  • They couldn't do that.
  • 00:04:23.586 --> 00:04:24.987
  • And not only that, they would wax eloquently why it's
  • 00:04:24.987 --> 00:04:27.423
  • Unimportant to know all of that stuff.
  • 00:04:27.423 --> 00:04:30.126
  • They would say, "well, when it comes to the return of christ,
  • 00:04:30.126 --> 00:04:32.662
  • I'm not on the planning committee, i'm on the
  • 00:04:32.662 --> 00:04:34.664
  • Welcoming committee."
  • 00:04:34.664 --> 00:04:36.833
  • Or things like, "well, i don't want to be so heavenly-minded
  • 00:04:36.833 --> 00:04:39.836
  • I'm no earthly good."
  • 00:04:39.836 --> 00:04:41.204
  • Have you heard that before?
  • 00:04:41.204 --> 00:04:42.805
  • And yet, as we saw last time, an understanding of end-time events
  • 00:04:42.805 --> 00:04:47.977
  • Is both possible, but it's also crucial.
  • 00:04:47.977 --> 00:04:51.414
  • That's why the bible devotes so much space to future things.
  • 00:04:51.414 --> 00:04:56.686
  • And today, we're going to try to get the big picture of
  • 00:04:56.686 --> 00:05:01.190
  • Bible prophecy.
  • 00:05:01.190 --> 00:05:02.558
  • And in the weeks ahead, we'll look at each of the events, but
  • 00:05:02.558 --> 00:05:05.061
  • Today, we're gonna look at the map, the overview of
  • 00:05:05.061 --> 00:05:07.463
  • Bible prophecy.
  • 00:05:07.463 --> 00:05:08.831
  • And specifically, i want to do three things.
  • 00:05:08.831 --> 00:05:10.600
  • I want us to, first of all, define each of the seven events
  • 00:05:10.600 --> 00:05:13.903
  • That are still awaiting us that precede and follow the return
  • 00:05:13.903 --> 00:05:17.440
  • Of christ.
  • 00:05:17.440 --> 00:05:18.808
  • Secondly, after we define those things, i'm going to give you
  • 00:05:18.808 --> 00:05:21.544
  • A key scripture for each of those events as we try to make
  • 00:05:21.544 --> 00:05:25.782
  • Sense of it.
  • 00:05:25.782 --> 00:05:27.116
  • And finally, and very briefly, i'm going to conclude with
  • 00:05:27.116 --> 00:05:29.852
  • Matthew 24 and 25 and look at an important question that jesus
  • 00:05:29.852 --> 00:05:34.223
  • Raised in that passage.
  • 00:05:34.223 --> 00:05:36.058
  • And what we're going to do is we're going to look at each of
  • 00:05:36.058 --> 00:05:38.694
  • These seven events and where they fit in god's
  • 00:05:38.694 --> 00:05:42.298
  • Prophetic timetable.
  • 00:05:42.298 --> 00:05:44.767
  • You notice that there is a cross here representing the death, the
  • 00:05:44.767 --> 00:05:48.337
  • Resurrection, the ascension of jesus christ.
  • 00:05:48.337 --> 00:05:51.641
  • And immediately after that cross, you see the first event
  • 00:05:51.641 --> 00:05:55.745
  • Or time period we're going to look at, called the church age.
  • 00:05:55.745 --> 00:06:00.249
  • It is a time when god has extended, expanded the
  • 00:06:00.249 --> 00:06:03.986
  • Invitation list beyond israel to anyone and everyone to become a
  • 00:06:03.986 --> 00:06:08.124
  • Part of the kingdom of god.
  • 00:06:08.124 --> 00:06:10.293
  • I want you to write this down as the definition of the church
  • 00:06:10.293 --> 00:06:12.795
  • Age: the church age is that period of time from pentecost--
  • 00:06:12.795 --> 00:06:17.066
  • In acts 2, when the holy spirit came--until the rapture during
  • 00:06:17.066 --> 00:06:21.737
  • Which gentiles are invited to participate in the blessings of
  • 00:06:21.737 --> 00:06:26.442
  • The abrahamic covenant.
  • 00:06:26.442 --> 00:06:27.777
  • Let me say it again.
  • 00:06:27.777 --> 00:06:29.145
  • The church age is that period of time from pentecost until the
  • 00:06:29.145 --> 00:06:32.648
  • Rapture during which gentiles are invited to participate in
  • 00:06:32.648 --> 00:06:36.853
  • The blessings of the abrahamic covenant.
  • 00:06:36.853 --> 00:06:39.789
  • We saw last time in genesis 12, god made a promise to abraham
  • 00:06:39.789 --> 00:06:43.893
  • And his believing descendants: israel.
  • 00:06:43.893 --> 00:06:48.130
  • And for thousands of years, god has been dealing with israel,
  • 00:06:48.130 --> 00:06:51.734
  • Trying to bring her into a right relationship with himself.
  • 00:06:51.734 --> 00:06:55.171
  • But when israel rejected jesus christ, god temporarily
  • 00:06:55.171 --> 00:07:01.511
  • Set aside israel, and he's opened up his invitation list to
  • 00:07:01.511 --> 00:07:05.314
  • Include anyone, non-jews like you and i, who would like to
  • 00:07:05.314 --> 00:07:08.784
  • Become a part of the kingdom of god.
  • 00:07:08.784 --> 00:07:10.987
  • That's the period of time we're living in right now.
  • 00:07:10.987 --> 00:07:13.556
  • The end of the church age, the end of this time of gentile
  • 00:07:13.556 --> 00:07:17.326
  • Blessing is gonna be the second event that is on your chart
  • 00:07:17.326 --> 00:07:20.730
  • Called the rapture of the church.
  • 00:07:20.730 --> 00:07:23.165
  • This is how the church age ends: it ends with the
  • 00:07:23.165 --> 00:07:27.470
  • Rapture of the church.
  • 00:07:27.470 --> 00:07:28.838
  • The word "rapture" comes from a latin word, rapturo,
  • 00:07:28.838 --> 00:07:32.675
  • That in turn comes from a greek word, harpazo,
  • 00:07:32.675 --> 00:07:36.012
  • Which means to snatch away.
  • 00:07:36.012 --> 00:07:38.481
  • And here's the definition of the rapture, write it down.
  • 00:07:38.481 --> 00:07:41.417
  • The rapture is the snatching away to heaven of all christians
  • 00:07:41.417 --> 00:07:46.389
  • Before the beginning of the tribulation.
  • 00:07:46.389 --> 00:07:48.591
  • It is the snatching away to heaven of all christians before
  • 00:07:48.591 --> 00:07:52.461
  • The beginning of the tribulation.
  • 00:07:52.461 --> 00:07:54.997
  • And the key passage in the bible about the rapture is
  • 00:07:54.997 --> 00:07:58.067
  • 1 thessalonians 4.
  • 00:07:58.067 --> 00:07:59.635
  • Turn over there if you would, to 1 thessalonians 4.
  • 00:07:59.635 --> 00:08:02.805
  • By the way, the way you find 1 thessalonians, all the t's are
  • 00:08:02.805 --> 00:08:06.175
  • Together in the new testament: thessalonians, timothy, titus.
  • 00:08:06.175 --> 00:08:09.779
  • Turn over to 1 thessalonians chapter 4.
  • 00:08:09.779 --> 00:08:12.715
  • We're gonna look at the context of this chapter next week.
  • 00:08:12.715 --> 00:08:16.252
  • But here's the description of the rapture.
  • 00:08:16.252 --> 00:08:18.754
  • Some people say, "the rapture is nowhere in scripture, the word's
  • 00:08:18.754 --> 00:08:21.524
  • Never used."
  • 00:08:21.524 --> 00:08:22.892
  • Oh, yes, it is, and here it is.
  • 00:08:22.892 --> 00:08:24.226
  • Verse 16, "for the lord himself will descend from heaven with a
  • 00:08:24.226 --> 00:08:28.264
  • Shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet
  • 00:08:28.264 --> 00:08:31.567
  • Of god, and the dead in christ shall rise first.
  • 00:08:31.567 --> 00:08:35.938
  • And then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up,"
  • 00:08:35.938 --> 00:08:40.343
  • Harpazo, raptured.
  • 00:08:40.343 --> 00:08:42.979
  • There's the word.
  • 00:08:42.979 --> 00:08:44.313
  • "we shall be raptured together with them in the clouds to meet
  • 00:08:44.313 --> 00:08:48.718
  • The lord in the air, and thus we shall always be with the lord.
  • 00:08:48.718 --> 00:08:54.957
  • Therefore comfort one another with these words."
  • 00:08:54.957 --> 00:08:58.995
  • This is the rapture of the church.
  • 00:08:58.995 --> 00:09:01.697
  • And following the rapture comes the third event on your chart
  • 00:09:01.697 --> 00:09:06.235
  • There, the tribulation.
  • 00:09:06.235 --> 00:09:08.070
  • The time we call the tribulation.
  • 00:09:08.070 --> 00:09:09.839
  • Now, here's the definition of the tribulation.
  • 00:09:09.839 --> 00:09:11.741
  • This isn't just a time of persecution.
  • 00:09:11.741 --> 00:09:14.477
  • It's not hard times.
  • 00:09:14.477 --> 00:09:16.012
  • There is a very specific seven-year period of time that
  • 00:09:16.012 --> 00:09:20.082
  • Are the final seven years of earth's history.
  • 00:09:20.082 --> 00:09:22.685
  • And here's the definition of the tribulation: the tribulation is
  • 00:09:22.685 --> 00:09:26.689
  • That seven-year period that begins when the antichrist signs
  • 00:09:26.689 --> 00:09:32.128
  • A peace covenant with israel and it ends with armageddon and the
  • 00:09:32.128 --> 00:09:36.966
  • Second coming of jesus christ.
  • 00:09:36.966 --> 00:09:38.334
  • Let me say it again.
  • 00:09:38.334 --> 00:09:39.669
  • The tribulation is that seven-year period of time that
  • 00:09:39.669 --> 00:09:42.271
  • Begins when the antichrist signs a peace treaty with israel and
  • 00:09:42.271 --> 00:09:46.442
  • Ends with armageddon and the second coming of jesus christ.
  • 00:09:46.442 --> 00:09:50.913
  • After the rapture, maybe because of the rapture itself, there is
  • 00:09:50.913 --> 00:09:55.551
  • Gonna be worldwide chaos.
  • 00:09:55.551 --> 00:09:57.953
  • And that chaos is going to center just as it centers right
  • 00:09:57.953 --> 00:10:01.657
  • Now in the middle east, and specifically with israel.
  • 00:10:01.657 --> 00:10:05.494
  • All of the tension in the middle east, when you boil it down to
  • 00:10:05.494 --> 00:10:08.898
  • Its essence, it has to do with israel.
  • 00:10:08.898 --> 00:10:11.434
  • And it has to do specifically with that piece of real estate
  • 00:10:11.434 --> 00:10:14.003
  • Over there.
  • 00:10:14.003 --> 00:10:15.604
  • And at the end-times there is going to be a cataclysmic event
  • 00:10:15.604 --> 00:10:20.576
  • That is going to bring the world, i believe, to the brink
  • 00:10:20.576 --> 00:10:23.212
  • Of nuclear disaster.
  • 00:10:23.212 --> 00:10:25.681
  • And this antichrist will rise to power, and he will be hailed and
  • 00:10:25.681 --> 00:10:31.387
  • Followed by all because he is finally able to solve the middle
  • 00:10:31.387 --> 00:10:36.358
  • East dilemma like no other leader has.
  • 00:10:36.358 --> 00:10:38.828
  • He will sign a peace covenant with israel, and because of
  • 00:10:38.828 --> 00:10:42.965
  • That, people will naturally follow after him.
  • 00:10:42.965 --> 00:10:45.935
  • That is the beginning, daniel says, of the seven-year period
  • 00:10:45.935 --> 00:10:49.438
  • Known as the great tribulation that will end with armageddon
  • 00:10:49.438 --> 00:10:53.042
  • And the return of jesus christ.
  • 00:10:53.042 --> 00:10:54.877
  • Now, the climax of the seven-year tribulation will be
  • 00:10:54.877 --> 00:10:58.080
  • The second coming of jesus christ.
  • 00:10:58.080 --> 00:11:00.216
  • Turn over to revelation chapter 19.
  • 00:11:00.216 --> 00:11:03.085
  • Let me give you this definition, while you're turning there, of
  • 00:11:03.085 --> 00:11:06.589
  • The second coming.
  • 00:11:06.589 --> 00:11:07.923
  • The second coming of christ is the visible return of
  • 00:11:07.923 --> 00:11:12.528
  • Jesus christ to establish his kingdom on the earth.
  • 00:11:12.528 --> 00:11:16.365
  • The second coming of christ is the visible return of
  • 00:11:16.365 --> 00:11:19.668
  • Jesus christ to establish his kingdom on the earth.
  • 00:11:19.668 --> 00:11:23.305
  • At the end of the seven-year tribulation, all the world
  • 00:11:23.305 --> 00:11:27.109
  • Forces are going to gather together to try to
  • 00:11:27.109 --> 00:11:30.613
  • Defeat antichrist.
  • 00:11:30.613 --> 00:11:31.947
  • Tired of his tyrannical rule, the world forces are going to
  • 00:11:31.947 --> 00:11:35.384
  • Decide, "we're going to overtake this dictator."
  • 00:11:35.384 --> 00:11:38.754
  • And they are going to assemble, the bible says, on the plain
  • 00:11:38.754 --> 00:11:41.991
  • Of megiddo.
  • 00:11:41.991 --> 00:11:43.359
  • We call it armageddon.
  • 00:11:43.359 --> 00:11:44.693
  • The plain of megiddo.
  • 00:11:44.693 --> 00:11:46.162
  • And all the world forces are going to be assembled there to
  • 00:11:46.162 --> 00:11:49.198
  • Make war against the antichrist.
  • 00:11:49.198 --> 00:11:51.367
  • But as they do so, suddenly the clouds are going to part, and
  • 00:11:51.367 --> 00:11:55.237
  • Notice what everyone is going to see.
  • 00:11:55.237 --> 00:11:57.173
  • Verse 11, john says, "i saw heaven opened, and behold, a
  • 00:11:57.173 --> 00:12:01.243
  • White horse, and he who sat upon it is called faithful and true,
  • 00:12:01.243 --> 00:12:05.648
  • And in righteousness he judges and wages war.
  • 00:12:05.648 --> 00:12:08.951
  • And the armies which are in heaven," that's you and i.
  • 00:12:08.951 --> 00:12:12.721
  • "the armies which are in heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and
  • 00:12:12.721 --> 00:12:15.891
  • Clean, were following him," jesus, "on the white horses.
  • 00:12:15.891 --> 00:12:19.361
  • And from his mouth comes a sharp sword, so that with it he may
  • 00:12:19.361 --> 00:12:22.832
  • Smite the nations, and he will rule them with a rod of iron;
  • 00:12:22.832 --> 00:12:26.702
  • And he treads the wine press of the fierce wrath of god,
  • 00:12:26.702 --> 00:12:29.772
  • The almighty.
  • 00:12:29.772 --> 00:12:31.140
  • And on his robe and on his thigh he has a name written, 'king of
  • 00:12:31.140 --> 00:12:35.344
  • Kings, and lord of lords.'"
  • 00:12:35.344 --> 00:12:38.214
  • This is the second coming of jesus christ, and we return with
  • 00:12:38.214 --> 00:12:43.052
  • Him at that time.
  • 00:12:43.052 --> 00:12:44.520
  • That's the climax of the great tribulation.
  • 00:12:44.520 --> 00:12:48.023
  • Why does christ return visibly, literally to this planet?
  • 00:12:48.023 --> 00:12:52.494
  • That's the fifth item on your chart.
  • 00:12:52.494 --> 00:12:54.430
  • To establish his kingdom on earth, which we call
  • 00:12:54.430 --> 00:12:57.499
  • The millennium.
  • 00:12:57.499 --> 00:12:58.868
  • That word "milli-" means a thousand; "annum," year.
  • 00:12:58.868 --> 00:13:01.637
  • It is the thousand-year period of time during which christ will
  • 00:13:01.637 --> 00:13:06.909
  • Reign on the earth, fulfilling god's promises to abraham and
  • 00:13:06.909 --> 00:13:10.813
  • His believing descendants.
  • 00:13:10.813 --> 00:13:12.147
  • Let me say it again.
  • 00:13:12.147 --> 00:13:13.515
  • The millennium is that thousand-year period of time
  • 00:13:13.515 --> 00:13:16.018
  • When christ will reign on the earth, fulfilling god's promises
  • 00:13:16.018 --> 00:13:20.356
  • To abraham and his believing descendants.
  • 00:13:20.356 --> 00:13:22.858
  • Remember, we saw last time god made an unconditional promise to
  • 00:13:22.858 --> 00:13:27.730
  • Abraham and his believing descendants of a land, of
  • 00:13:27.730 --> 00:13:31.267
  • A seed, and a blessing.
  • 00:13:31.267 --> 00:13:33.068
  • God has to fulfill that promise to believing israel.
  • 00:13:33.068 --> 00:13:37.072
  • And the millennium is the time when all of believing israel
  • 00:13:37.072 --> 00:13:41.143
  • Will inhabit all of that real estate god has planned for them.
  • 00:13:41.143 --> 00:13:45.014
  • Now, at the end of the millennium, revelation 20 tells
  • 00:13:45.014 --> 00:13:49.018
  • Us, satan, who has been bound for a thousand years, will be
  • 00:13:49.018 --> 00:13:52.288
  • Loosed for a little while.
  • 00:13:52.288 --> 00:13:53.956
  • He will lead one final rebellion, and at the end of
  • 00:13:53.956 --> 00:13:57.026
  • That rebellion, god will judge all unbelievers at the sixth
  • 00:13:57.026 --> 00:14:01.497
  • Event on your outline called the great white throne judgment.
  • 00:14:01.497 --> 00:14:06.201
  • The great white throne judgment.
  • 00:14:06.201 --> 00:14:08.270
  • This is a time when god will judge all unbelievers who have
  • 00:14:08.270 --> 00:14:13.309
  • Ever lived.
  • 00:14:13.309 --> 00:14:14.643
  • The specific definition is this: the great white throne judgment
  • 00:14:14.643 --> 00:14:17.746
  • Is god's final judgment against all unbelievers who have
  • 00:14:17.746 --> 00:14:22.017
  • Ever lived.
  • 00:14:22.017 --> 00:14:23.352
  • Now, so you don't think i'm making any of this up, i want
  • 00:14:23.352 --> 00:14:26.288
  • You to turn over to revelation 20, where you can see this
  • 00:14:26.288 --> 00:14:29.058
  • For yourself.
  • 00:14:29.058 --> 00:14:30.392
  • This judgment, god's final judgment against all unbelievers
  • 00:14:30.392 --> 00:14:34.229
  • Who ever lived.
  • 00:14:34.229 --> 00:14:35.564
  • Look at revelation 20, beginning with verse 11.
  • 00:14:35.564 --> 00:14:38.634
  • John says, "then i saw a great white throne and him who sat
  • 00:14:38.634 --> 00:14:42.604
  • Upon it, from whose presence earth and heaven fled away, and
  • 00:14:42.604 --> 00:14:47.710
  • No place was found for them.
  • 00:14:47.710 --> 00:14:49.778
  • And i saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before
  • 00:14:49.778 --> 00:14:53.515
  • The throne, and the books were opened; and another book was
  • 00:14:53.515 --> 00:14:57.386
  • Opened, which is the book of life; and the dead were judged
  • 00:14:57.386 --> 00:15:01.323
  • From the things which were written in the books, according
  • 00:15:01.323 --> 00:15:04.293
  • To their deeds.
  • 00:15:04.293 --> 00:15:05.661
  • And the sea gave up the dead which were in it, and death in
  • 00:15:05.661 --> 00:15:09.565
  • Hades gave up the dead which were in them; and they were
  • 00:15:09.565 --> 00:15:12.735
  • Judged, every one of them according to their deeds.
  • 00:15:12.735 --> 00:15:16.939
  • And if anyone's name was not found written in the book of
  • 00:15:16.939 --> 00:15:19.808
  • Life, he was thrown into the lake of fire."
  • 00:15:19.808 --> 00:15:23.212
  • After that event, the final event that awaits everyone is
  • 00:15:23.212 --> 00:15:28.083
  • Eternity future.
  • 00:15:28.083 --> 00:15:29.952
  • What is eternity future?
  • 00:15:29.952 --> 00:15:31.387
  • It is that permanent state of both believers inhabiting the
  • 00:15:31.387 --> 00:15:34.990
  • New heaven and earth and unbelievers inhabiting the lake
  • 00:15:34.990 --> 00:15:39.261
  • Of fire.
  • 00:15:39.261 --> 00:15:40.863
  • After this great white throne judgment, the present heaven and
  • 00:15:40.863 --> 00:15:44.933
  • Earth that have been renovated for the millennium, they're
  • 00:15:44.933 --> 00:15:47.936
  • Ultimately going to be destroyed by fire.
  • 00:15:47.936 --> 00:15:50.005
  • Did you realize everything in this earth is eventually going
  • 00:15:50.005 --> 00:15:53.642
  • To melt away one day?
  • 00:15:53.642 --> 00:15:55.778
  • This entire planet, this entire universe is going to
  • 00:15:55.778 --> 00:16:00.516
  • Be destroyed.
  • 00:16:00.516 --> 00:16:01.850
  • Peter talks about that in 2 peter 3, verses 7 and 10.
  • 00:16:01.850 --> 00:16:05.654
  • He says, "but the present heavens and earth by his word
  • 00:16:05.654 --> 00:16:08.757
  • Are being reserved for fire, kept for the day of judgment and
  • 00:16:08.757 --> 00:16:13.095
  • Destruction of ungodly men.
  • 00:16:13.095 --> 00:16:15.230
  • But the day of the lord will come like a thief, in which the
  • 00:16:15.230 --> 00:16:18.233
  • Heavens will pass away with a roar and the elements will be
  • 00:16:18.233 --> 00:16:22.137
  • Destroyed with intense heat, and the earth and its works will be
  • 00:16:22.137 --> 00:16:26.475
  • Burned up."
  • 00:16:26.475 --> 00:16:28.043
  • And once this present heaven and earth have been completely
  • 00:16:28.043 --> 00:16:31.213
  • Destroyed, then god is ready for the new heaven
  • 00:16:31.213 --> 00:16:34.783
  • And the new earth.
  • 00:16:34.783 --> 00:16:36.118
  • Turn over to revelation chapter 21.
  • 00:16:36.118 --> 00:16:38.821
  • Look at it with me in verses 1 to 4.
  • 00:16:38.821 --> 00:16:41.690
  • After the present heaven and earth are destroyed,
  • 00:16:41.690 --> 00:16:43.525
  • Notice what john says.
  • 00:16:43.525 --> 00:16:44.927
  • He says, "then i saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the
  • 00:16:44.927 --> 00:16:49.198
  • First heaven and the first earth passed away, and there is
  • 00:16:49.198 --> 00:16:52.267
  • No longer any sea.
  • 00:16:52.267 --> 00:16:53.769
  • And i saw the holy city, new jerusalem, coming down out of
  • 00:16:53.769 --> 00:16:57.706
  • Heaven from god, made ready as a bride adorned for her husband.
  • 00:16:57.706 --> 00:17:02.644
  • And i heard a loud voice from the throne, saying, 'behold, the
  • 00:17:02.644 --> 00:17:06.448
  • Tabernacle of god is among men, and he shall dwell among them,
  • 00:17:06.448 --> 00:17:13.589
  • And they shall be his people, and god himself shall be among
  • 00:17:13.589 --> 00:17:17.359
  • Them, and he shall wipe away every tear from their eyes; and
  • 00:17:17.359 --> 00:17:22.231
  • There shall no longer be any death; there shall no longer be
  • 00:17:22.231 --> 00:17:25.434
  • Any mourning, or crying, or pain; for the first things have
  • 00:17:25.434 --> 00:17:29.071
  • Passed away.'"
  • 00:17:29.071 --> 00:17:31.006
  • John said, "i saw a new heaven, but i also saw a new earth.
  • 00:17:31.006 --> 00:17:38.046
  • And i saw this heavenly city coming down out of heaven
  • 00:17:38.046 --> 00:17:41.517
  • To earth."
  • 00:17:41.517 --> 00:17:44.520
  • As we'll describe in detail in the weeks ahead, the greatest
  • 00:17:44.520 --> 00:17:47.456
  • Misconception about eternity future for christians is that
  • 00:17:47.456 --> 00:17:52.127
  • We're gonna spend all eternity up there, someplace.
  • 00:17:52.127 --> 00:17:55.230
  • Floating around on a cloud, plucking a harp.
  • 00:17:55.230 --> 00:17:59.501
  • No wonder so few people are interested in going to heaven.
  • 00:17:59.501 --> 00:18:03.739
  • No, we're not gonna be up there.
  • 00:18:03.739 --> 00:18:05.941
  • That's not where we are.
  • 00:18:05.941 --> 00:18:08.343
  • John said, "i saw the new heaven and the new earth.
  • 00:18:08.343 --> 00:18:12.948
  • The new jerusalem was coming down here.
  • 00:18:12.948 --> 00:18:15.517
  • I didn't see people going up to dwell with god, i saw god coming
  • 00:18:15.517 --> 00:18:19.821
  • Down to dwell with man."
  • 00:18:19.821 --> 00:18:23.058
  • This earth is gonna be our eternal home.
  • 00:18:23.058 --> 00:18:27.129
  • This newly recreated earth just like god planned for it
  • 00:18:27.129 --> 00:18:31.266
  • Originally, but even better.
  • 00:18:31.266 --> 00:18:33.235
  • That's where we're gonna spend eternity.
  • 00:18:33.235 --> 00:18:35.370
  • Now, we can buzz around other places if we want to, but our
  • 00:18:35.370 --> 00:18:39.074
  • Primary home is going to be right here, just as god
  • 00:18:39.074 --> 00:18:43.412
  • Created us.
  • 00:18:43.412 --> 00:18:44.846
  • Doesn't that make you excited to think about what this world's
  • 00:18:44.846 --> 00:18:47.416
  • Gonna look like once the curse has been removed, once the tears
  • 00:18:47.416 --> 00:18:50.953
  • And the heartache is gone, and we're gonna experience life as
  • 00:18:50.953 --> 00:18:54.389
  • God as intended it?
  • 00:18:54.389 --> 00:18:55.857
  • That's what john says he saw.
  • 00:18:55.857 --> 00:18:58.327
  • Eternity future is the eternal future, not only for believers,
  • 00:18:58.327 --> 00:19:02.397
  • But for unbelievers as well.
  • 00:19:02.397 --> 00:19:04.266
  • Revelation 20:15, "if anyone's name was not found written in
  • 00:19:04.266 --> 00:19:08.470
  • The book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire."
  • 00:19:08.470 --> 00:19:12.107
  • His eternity is just as long as the eternity of believers.
  • 00:19:12.107 --> 00:19:16.545
  • I had somebody call me last week on a radio call-in show and
  • 00:19:16.545 --> 00:19:20.682
  • Said, "pastor, why is it god would torment unbelievers
  • 00:19:20.682 --> 00:19:25.988
  • Forever and ever?
  • 00:19:25.988 --> 00:19:27.389
  • That seems so cruel."
  • 00:19:27.389 --> 00:19:31.159
  • It only seems cruel to us because we are so unlike god.
  • 00:19:31.159 --> 00:19:36.465
  • We don't have the same righteousness and holiness that
  • 00:19:36.465 --> 00:19:39.901
  • God has.
  • 00:19:39.901 --> 00:19:41.236
  • God's holiness demands punishment.
  • 00:19:41.236 --> 00:19:46.041
  • But i said, "the truth is, god's word does say unbelievers will
  • 00:19:46.041 --> 00:19:51.146
  • Be tormented forever and ever," and that word "forever,"
  • 00:19:51.146 --> 00:19:54.816
  • Aionios, is the same word that is used to describe the
  • 00:19:54.816 --> 00:19:58.687
  • Eternality of heaven.
  • 00:19:58.687 --> 00:20:00.789
  • If out of false compassion we try to change the bible and we
  • 00:20:00.789 --> 00:20:06.295
  • Try to shorten the amount of time unbelievers will spend in
  • 00:20:06.295 --> 00:20:09.765
  • Hell, then to be intellectually honest, we have to shorten our
  • 00:20:09.765 --> 00:20:13.802
  • Time in heaven by that same amount, because it's the
  • 00:20:13.802 --> 00:20:16.038
  • Same word.
  • 00:20:16.038 --> 00:20:17.406
  • If unbelievers spend one second less in hell, then that means
  • 00:20:17.406 --> 00:20:21.510
  • You and i are gonna spend one second less in heaven.
  • 00:20:21.510 --> 00:20:24.646
  • It's the same word: eternal.
  • 00:20:24.646 --> 00:20:27.883
  • We're gonna be in heaven with christ forever and ever,
  • 00:20:27.883 --> 00:20:31.553
  • Unbelievers separated from god forever and ever.
  • 00:20:31.553 --> 00:20:35.257
  • And the reason they are separated is because of their
  • 00:20:35.257 --> 00:20:38.360
  • Own choice not to trust in christ, not to have their name
  • 00:20:38.360 --> 00:20:42.464
  • In that lamb's book of life.
  • 00:20:42.464 --> 00:20:44.366
  • "if anyone's name was not found written in the book of life, he
  • 00:20:44.366 --> 00:20:47.803
  • Was thrown into the lake of fire."
  • 00:20:47.803 --> 00:20:51.540
  • Now, i know we've covered a lot of ground.
  • 00:20:51.540 --> 00:20:53.508
  • You may be thinking, "pastor, do we really need to know all of
  • 00:20:53.508 --> 00:20:57.045
  • This stuff?
  • 00:20:57.045 --> 00:20:58.413
  • Is it really even our business about what's going to happen in
  • 00:20:58.413 --> 00:21:01.783
  • The future?"
  • 00:21:01.783 --> 00:21:03.485
  • The last time i stood on the mount of olives, i read matthew
  • 00:21:03.485 --> 00:21:07.122
  • 24 and 25, when jesus and his disciples were there at that
  • 00:21:07.122 --> 00:21:10.492
  • Very same spot and the disciples said, remember, "lord,
  • 00:21:10.492 --> 00:21:14.363
  • When will these things be, and what will be the sign of
  • 00:21:14.363 --> 00:21:17.699
  • Your coming in the end of the age?"
  • 00:21:17.699 --> 00:21:20.302
  • Jesus didn't rebuke his disciples for asking
  • 00:21:20.302 --> 00:21:22.571
  • That question.
  • 00:21:22.571 --> 00:21:23.905
  • Instead, he went into a detailed explanation covering 2 chapters
  • 00:21:23.905 --> 00:21:27.442
  • Of matthew of exactly what was gonna happen.
  • 00:21:27.442 --> 00:21:30.445
  • He started talking about the great tribulation, and then he
  • 00:21:30.445 --> 00:21:34.116
  • Talked about the coming of the son of man visibly for all
  • 00:21:34.116 --> 00:21:37.052
  • To see.
  • 00:21:37.052 --> 00:21:38.387
  • And then he talked about the judgments that would occur at
  • 00:21:38.387 --> 00:21:40.021
  • His second coming.
  • 00:21:40.021 --> 00:21:41.390
  • And then he talked about the kingdom that believers would be
  • 00:21:41.390 --> 00:21:44.459
  • Welcomed into.
  • 00:21:44.459 --> 00:21:46.795
  • But curiously, jesus never said anything about the rapture.
  • 00:21:46.795 --> 00:21:53.902
  • Didn't speak about it.
  • 00:21:53.902 --> 00:21:55.637
  • Now, you would think if the disciples wanted to know, "lord,
  • 00:21:55.637 --> 00:21:58.907
  • Tell us what things are going to happen," you would think jesus
  • 00:21:58.907 --> 00:22:03.311
  • Would talk about the rapture.
  • 00:22:03.311 --> 00:22:05.680
  • Why didn't he mention the rapture?
  • 00:22:05.680 --> 00:22:08.583
  • Is it because the rapture is simply a figment of our
  • 00:22:08.583 --> 00:22:10.819
  • Imagination and it's really not gonna happen and we are gonna go
  • 00:22:10.819 --> 00:22:14.022
  • Through the great tribulation?
  • 00:22:14.022 --> 00:22:17.058
  • Before you go out and build your bomb shelter in the backyard and
  • 00:22:17.058 --> 00:22:20.729
  • Start loading up on peanut butter and tuna fish, i
  • 00:22:20.729 --> 00:22:24.299
  • Encourage you to come back next week, because next week we're
  • 00:22:24.299 --> 00:22:28.403
  • Going to talk about the rapture of the church and why i am
  • 00:22:28.403 --> 00:22:32.274
  • Absolutely convinced that no christian is gonna be left
  • 00:22:32.274 --> 00:22:36.678
  • Behind for the great tribulation.
  • 00:22:36.678 --> 00:22:40.081
  • Jeffress: i've been studying the bible for many decades, and i've
  • 00:22:44.319 --> 00:22:47.889
  • Been teaching about biblical prophecy most of my life.
  • 00:22:47.889 --> 00:22:51.393
  • As a result of the countless hours invested in this topic,
  • 00:22:51.393 --> 00:22:55.163
  • I'm convinced that christians will not remain on earth for the
  • 00:22:55.163 --> 00:22:58.400
  • Great tribulation, and i urge you to listen again next time
  • 00:22:58.400 --> 00:23:02.437
  • Because i'm going to explain how i've come to that conclusion.
  • 00:23:02.437 --> 00:23:06.308
  • As we venture further into this study of bible prophecy, my
  • 00:23:06.308 --> 00:23:10.378
  • Prayer is that you'll begin to see god's plan for the future
  • 00:23:10.378 --> 00:23:13.915
  • And for you personally.
  • 00:23:13.915 --> 00:23:15.517
  • Not as an alarming mystery, but as a source of comfort and hope.
  • 00:23:15.517 --> 00:23:20.455
  • That's one of the many reasons we provide "pathway to victory"
  • 00:23:20.455 --> 00:23:23.825

  • Very frightening.

  • It's going to consist of economic turmoil.
  • 00:24:46.141 --> 00:24:48.143

  • 00:24:48.143 --> 00:24:52.113

  • 00:24:52.113 --> 00:24:55.150

  • Around the world.
  • 00:25:06.261 --> 00:25:07.596
  • Together we're piercing the darkness with the light of
  • 00:25:07.596 --> 00:25:10.465
  • God's word.
  • 00:25:10.465 --> 00:25:11.833
  • Jeffress: together, both the old and new testaments contain over
  • 00:25:14.936 --> 00:25:18.073
  • 2,000 prophecies.
  • 00:25:18.073 --> 00:25:20.141
  • While the majority of these prophecies have already come to
  • 00:25:20.141 --> 00:25:22.877
  • Pass, others are yet to be fulfilled.
  • 00:25:22.877 --> 00:25:26.181
  • And i hope this initial study in our new series is giving you
  • 00:25:26.181 --> 00:25:29.918
  • Helpful context for the subject of the end-times.
  • 00:25:29.918 --> 00:25:33.855
  • Well, many people have tried to set concrete dates to predict
  • 00:25:33.855 --> 00:25:37.792
  • The end-times, but so far no one's been accurate.
  • 00:25:37.792 --> 00:25:41.262
  • We can't know god's timing, but we can know what the end-times
  • 00:25:41.262 --> 00:25:45.400
  • Will look like.
  • 00:25:45.400 --> 00:25:46.735

  • Very frightening.
  • 00:26:01.750 --> 00:26:03.084
  • It's gonna consist of economic turmoil, there'll be wars,
  • 00:26:03.084 --> 00:26:06.187
  • There'll be unprecedented persecution, but fortunately,
  • 00:26:06.187 --> 00:26:10.158
  • Christians don't have to fear that period of time because of
