00:00:59.692 --> 00:00:13.774
Pastor matt hagee: when you
00:00:13.841 --> 00:00:14.375
Pastor matt hagee: when you consider the life of daniel,
00:00:14.442 --> 00:00:17.645
Consider the life of daniel, many are familiar
00:00:17.711 --> 00:00:18.446
Many are familiar with it in parts and pieces.
00:00:18.512 --> 00:00:20.548
With it in parts and pieces. some know the story of daniel
00:00:20.614 --> 00:00:22.416
Some know the story of daniel being cast into the lion's den.
00:00:22.483 --> 00:00:24.318
Being cast into the lion's den. that happened in his old age.
00:00:24.385 --> 00:00:26.987
That happened in his old age. some know the story
00:00:27.054 --> 00:00:28.055
Some know the story of daniel's three friends,
00:00:28.122 --> 00:00:29.356
Of daniel's three friends, meshach, shadrach, and abednego
00:00:29.423 --> 00:00:31.025
Meshach, shadrach, and abednego who stood up when the rest
00:00:31.092 --> 00:00:32.726
Who stood up when the rest of the nation bowed
00:00:32.793 --> 00:00:33.894
Of the nation bowed and were thrown into
00:00:33.961 --> 00:00:34.895
And were thrown into nebuchadnezzar's fiery furnace.
00:00:34.962 --> 00:00:37.431
Nebuchadnezzar's fiery furnace. but when you look
00:00:37.498 --> 00:00:38.265
But when you look at the entirety
00:00:38.332 --> 00:00:39.200
At the entirety of daniel's life,
00:00:39.266 --> 00:00:40.234
Of daniel's life, you have to understand
00:00:40.301 --> 00:00:41.735
You have to understand that his life story is a story
00:00:41.802 --> 00:00:44.772
That his life story is a story of generational neglect.
00:00:44.839 --> 00:00:47.875
Of generational neglect. daniel as an individual
00:00:47.942 --> 00:00:49.376
Daniel as an individual should encourage young
00:00:49.443 --> 00:00:50.611
Should encourage young people to live for god,
00:00:50.678 --> 00:00:52.980
People to live for god, but should also serve
00:00:53.047 --> 00:00:53.948
But should also serve as a warning to an older
00:00:54.014 --> 00:00:55.149
As a warning to an older generation not to neglect
00:00:55.216 --> 00:00:57.151
Generation not to neglect the needs of their children
00:00:57.218 --> 00:00:58.419
The needs of their children and their grandchildren
00:00:58.486 --> 00:00:59.620
And their grandchildren by failing to do their duty
00:00:59.687 --> 00:01:01.288
By failing to do their duty in the hour in which we live.
00:01:01.355 --> 00:01:04.458
In the hour in which we live. you see, daniel was a teenager,
00:01:04.525 --> 00:01:06.994
You see, daniel was a teenager, a 17-year-old young man, when
00:01:07.061 --> 00:01:10.064
A 17-year-old young man, when jerusalem was sieged by
00:01:10.131 --> 00:01:12.299
Jerusalem was sieged by nebuchadnezzar and the kingdom
00:01:12.366 --> 00:01:14.235
Nebuchadnezzar and the kingdom of babylon.
00:01:14.301 --> 00:01:16.070
Of babylon. in this siege,
00:01:16.137 --> 00:01:17.071
In this siege, nebuchadnezzar gave an order
00:01:17.138 --> 00:01:18.339
Nebuchadnezzar gave an order to take thousands
00:01:18.405 --> 00:01:19.740
To take thousands of young people captive,
00:01:19.807 --> 00:01:21.308
Of young people captive, and take them back to babylon
00:01:21.375 --> 00:01:23.043
And take them back to babylon to serve before him
00:01:23.110 --> 00:01:24.879
To serve before him in his palace.
00:01:24.945 --> 00:01:26.814
In his palace. daniel is 17 years of age.
00:01:26.881 --> 00:01:28.916
Daniel is 17 years of age. he's full of potential.
00:01:28.983 --> 00:01:31.051
He's full of potential. all of his life is before him,
00:01:31.118 --> 00:01:33.220
All of his life is before him, and he's about
00:01:33.287 --> 00:01:33.921
And he's about to forfeit it all,
00:01:33.988 --> 00:01:35.489
To forfeit it all, not because of anything
00:01:35.556 --> 00:01:36.690
Not because of anything that he did,
00:01:36.757 --> 00:01:38.526
That he did, but because of those who came
00:01:38.592 --> 00:01:39.894
But because of those who came before him and what they
00:01:39.960 --> 00:01:41.896
Before him and what they failed to do.
00:01:41.962 --> 00:01:44.231
Failed to do. this is why it's important that
00:01:44.298 --> 00:01:45.866
This is why it's important that you do not abandon your history
00:01:45.933 --> 00:01:49.236
You do not abandon your history because history is a compass
00:01:49.303 --> 00:01:51.505
Because history is a compass that shows you how you got where
00:01:51.572 --> 00:01:53.274
That shows you how you got where you are and gives you direction
00:01:53.340 --> 00:01:55.242
You are and gives you direction on where you need
00:01:55.309 --> 00:01:56.243
On where you need to go in the future.
00:01:56.310 --> 00:01:58.546
To go in the future. right now, in this nation,
00:01:58.612 --> 00:02:00.080
Right now, in this nation, we are doing everything
00:02:00.147 --> 00:02:01.382
We are doing everything we can to completely
00:02:01.448 --> 00:02:02.950
We can to completely erase history.
00:02:03.017 --> 00:02:05.486
Erase history. good history and bad history.
00:02:05.553 --> 00:02:07.621
Good history and bad history. don't erase any of it,
00:02:07.688 --> 00:02:08.722
Don't erase any of it, learn from all of it.
00:02:08.789 --> 00:02:12.426
Learn from all of it. but in order for us
00:02:12.493 --> 00:02:13.794
But in order for us to understand how daniel
00:02:13.861 --> 00:02:16.964
To understand how daniel got in his circumstance,
00:02:17.031 --> 00:02:18.632
Got in his circumstance, we need to look back in
00:02:18.699 --> 00:02:20.000
We need to look back in the history of israel
00:02:20.067 --> 00:02:21.335
The history of israel in 2 kings 20.
00:02:21.402 --> 00:02:24.438
In 2 kings 20. 2 kings 20,
00:02:24.505 --> 00:02:25.706
2 kings 20, we read the story
00:02:25.773 --> 00:02:26.473
We read the story of king hezekiah.
00:02:26.540 --> 00:02:28.576
Of king hezekiah. king hezekiah is a king
00:02:28.642 --> 00:02:30.377
King hezekiah is a king that god,
00:02:30.444 --> 00:02:31.278
That god, in his sovereignty,
00:02:31.345 --> 00:02:32.246
In his sovereignty, spared from sennacherib
00:02:32.313 --> 00:02:34.148
Spared from sennacherib and the assyrians.
00:02:34.215 --> 00:02:35.583
And the assyrians. sennacherib and assyria were
00:02:35.649 --> 00:02:37.585
Sennacherib and assyria were a mighty army that was marching
00:02:37.651 --> 00:02:39.386
A mighty army that was marching all across the world conquering
00:02:39.453 --> 00:02:41.222
All across the world conquering every kingdom that they
00:02:41.288 --> 00:02:42.122
Every kingdom that they came in contact with,
00:02:42.189 --> 00:02:43.524
Came in contact with, and the city of jerusalem,
00:02:43.591 --> 00:02:45.125
And the city of jerusalem, as small as it was,
00:02:45.192 --> 00:02:46.594
As small as it was, should have been nothing more
00:02:46.660 --> 00:02:47.828
Should have been nothing more than a minor military exercise
00:02:47.895 --> 00:02:50.197
Than a minor military exercise for such a vast army.
00:02:50.264 --> 00:02:52.099
For such a vast army. however, the god who keeps
00:02:52.166 --> 00:02:54.134
However, the god who keeps israel does not slumber
00:02:54.201 --> 00:02:54.935
Israel does not slumber nor sleeps,
00:02:55.002 --> 00:02:56.470
Nor sleeps, and he protected
00:02:56.537 --> 00:02:57.071
And he protected his holy city then
00:02:57.137 --> 00:02:58.672
His holy city then and he's protecting
00:02:58.739 --> 00:02:59.540
And he's protecting his holy city now.
00:02:59.607 --> 00:03:00.708
[applause]
00:03:01.375 --> 00:03:06.380
In order to know what
00:03:07.114 --> 00:03:07.781
In order to know what god did for hezekiah,
00:03:07.848 --> 00:03:09.116
God did for hezekiah, look at 2 kings 19:35,
00:03:09.183 --> 00:03:11.885
Look at 2 kings 19:35, you'll read there that
00:03:11.952 --> 00:03:12.886
You'll read there that the angel of the lord
00:03:12.953 --> 00:03:14.255
The angel of the lord went out at night,
00:03:14.321 --> 00:03:15.689
Went out at night, and he killed 185,000 assyrians.
00:03:15.756 --> 00:03:23.197
And he killed 185,000 assyrians. that's a pretty good day
00:03:23.264 --> 00:03:24.031
That's a pretty good day of killing if you ask me.
00:03:24.098 --> 00:03:27.901
Of killing if you ask me. in this moment,
00:03:27.968 --> 00:03:28.869
In this moment, hezekiah goes
00:03:28.936 --> 00:03:30.537
Hezekiah goes from a victim to a victor.
00:03:30.604 --> 00:03:33.307
From a victim to a victor. he goes from somebody
00:03:33.374 --> 00:03:34.241
He goes from somebody who is not thought of,
00:03:34.308 --> 00:03:35.643
Who is not thought of, in the international world
00:03:35.709 --> 00:03:37.144
In the international world to being a household name
00:03:37.211 --> 00:03:39.280
To being a household name all over the region
00:03:39.346 --> 00:03:40.681
All over the region because 185,000 dead
00:03:40.748 --> 00:03:43.917
Because 185,000 dead assyrians testify
00:03:43.984 --> 00:03:45.452
Assyrians testify to the fact that there is a god
00:03:45.519 --> 00:03:47.421
To the fact that there is a god in israel who watches
00:03:47.488 --> 00:03:48.822
In israel who watches over that land.
00:03:48.889 --> 00:03:49.556
In the next chapter, 2 kings 20,
00:03:51.358 --> 00:03:53.794
In the next chapter, 2 kings 20, hezekiah gets sick,
00:03:53.861 --> 00:03:55.996
Hezekiah gets sick, and he sends for elisha --
00:03:56.063 --> 00:03:57.698
And he sends for elisha -- or for isaiah the prophet,
00:03:57.765 --> 00:03:59.466
Or for isaiah the prophet, and he tells isaiah,
00:03:59.533 --> 00:04:00.668
And he tells isaiah, "i don't want to die,
00:04:00.734 --> 00:04:01.969
"i don't want to die, i want god to extend my life."
00:04:02.036 --> 00:04:03.837
I want god to extend my life." god hears his prayer
00:04:03.904 --> 00:04:05.205
God hears his prayer and god says,
00:04:05.272 --> 00:04:06.040
And god says, "hezekiah, i'm going to give
00:04:06.106 --> 00:04:07.508
"hezekiah, i'm going to give you 15 more years."
00:04:07.574 --> 00:04:10.577
You 15 more years." now, that's a pretty
00:04:10.644 --> 00:04:11.078
Now, that's a pretty specific number.
00:04:11.145 --> 00:04:12.980
Specific number. i mean, it might cause
00:04:13.047 --> 00:04:13.981
I mean, it might cause you to take out,
00:04:14.048 --> 00:04:14.615
You to take out, like, a 20 year mortgage
00:04:14.682 --> 00:04:15.949
Like, a 20 year mortgage and not tell the bank, but.
00:04:16.016 --> 00:04:17.117
[laughter]
00:04:17.584 --> 00:04:18.719
Don't follow my advice.
00:04:19.253 --> 00:04:23.390
Don't follow my advice. during this time of illness,
00:04:23.457 --> 00:04:26.193
During this time of illness, the babylonians send
00:04:26.260 --> 00:04:27.661
The babylonians send a delegation to come
00:04:27.728 --> 00:04:28.462
A delegation to come see king hezekiah
00:04:28.529 --> 00:04:31.098
See king hezekiah because 185,000
00:04:31.165 --> 00:04:33.634
Because 185,000 dead assyrians mean that you
00:04:33.701 --> 00:04:35.269
Dead assyrians mean that you wanna be on hezekiah's
00:04:35.336 --> 00:04:36.203
Wanna be on hezekiah's good list.
00:04:36.270 --> 00:04:39.306
Good list. verses 12 through 19
00:04:39.373 --> 00:04:40.874
Verses 12 through 19 give the details.
00:04:40.941 --> 00:04:42.810
Give the details. the babylonians send a prince,
00:04:42.876 --> 00:04:44.678
The babylonians send a prince, he's the son of the king,
00:04:44.745 --> 00:04:46.847
He's the son of the king, and they send a delegation
00:04:46.914 --> 00:04:47.981
And they send a delegation with a letter from the king,
00:04:48.048 --> 00:04:49.116
With a letter from the king, it's an old testament
00:04:49.183 --> 00:04:50.084
It's an old testament "get well" card.
00:04:50.150 --> 00:04:52.252
"get well" card. and when this delegation comes,
00:04:52.319 --> 00:04:54.088
And when this delegation comes, hezekiah's, kinda, flattered.
00:04:54.154 --> 00:04:55.923
Hezekiah's, kinda, flattered. "wow, important people
00:04:55.989 --> 00:04:58.125
"wow, important people want to see me.
00:04:58.192 --> 00:05:00.160
Want to see me. world leaders
00:05:00.227 --> 00:05:01.161
World leaders think i'm important.
00:05:01.228 --> 00:05:02.763
Think i'm important. if you like all that you see,
00:05:02.830 --> 00:05:04.865
If you like all that you see, why don't i show you more?"
00:05:04.932 --> 00:05:07.101
Why don't i show you more?" and so, he takes them on a tour,
00:05:07.167 --> 00:05:09.169
And so, he takes them on a tour, and he shows them all
00:05:09.236 --> 00:05:10.237
And he shows them all of the treasures in his house,
00:05:10.304 --> 00:05:11.872
Of the treasures in his house, and he shows them
00:05:11.939 --> 00:05:12.573
And he shows them all of the treasures
00:05:12.639 --> 00:05:13.374
All of the treasures in god's house,
00:05:13.440 --> 00:05:14.708
In god's house, and he shows them all
00:05:14.775 --> 00:05:15.609
And he shows them all of the things that god had
00:05:15.676 --> 00:05:17.644
Of the things that god had supernaturally given to him.
00:05:17.711 --> 00:05:21.148
Supernaturally given to him. he didn't give glory to god,
00:05:21.215 --> 00:05:23.150
He didn't give glory to god, he took glory from god,
00:05:23.217 --> 00:05:24.985
He took glory from god, and god said,
00:05:25.052 --> 00:05:25.786
And god said, "i won't share my glory
00:05:25.853 --> 00:05:27.020
"i won't share my glory with anyone."
00:05:27.087 --> 00:05:29.923
With anyone." so, when they leave,
00:05:29.990 --> 00:05:31.024
So, when they leave, isaiah the prophet shows up,
00:05:31.091 --> 00:05:32.393
Isaiah the prophet shows up, and in verse 15,
00:05:32.459 --> 00:05:33.560
And in verse 15, he asks this question
00:05:33.627 --> 00:05:34.995
He asks this question of king hezekiah.
00:05:35.062 --> 00:05:35.863
Of king hezekiah. he said,
00:05:35.929 --> 00:05:36.263
He said, "what have they seen?"
00:05:36.330 --> 00:05:38.465
"what have they seen?" and hezekiah arrogantly answers,
00:05:38.532 --> 00:05:40.267
And hezekiah arrogantly answers, he said,
00:05:40.334 --> 00:05:40.768
He said, "they've seen everything
00:05:40.834 --> 00:05:41.902
"they've seen everything that's in my house.
00:05:41.969 --> 00:05:42.836
That's in my house. there's nothing among
00:05:42.903 --> 00:05:44.071
There's nothing among my treasures that
00:05:44.138 --> 00:05:45.305
My treasures that i have not shown them."
00:05:45.372 --> 00:05:48.642
I have not shown them." and isaiah tells him
00:05:48.709 --> 00:05:50.077
And isaiah tells him in verses 16-17,
00:05:50.144 --> 00:05:51.745
In verses 16-17, "now hear the word
00:05:51.812 --> 00:05:53.013
"now hear the word of the lord.
00:05:53.080 --> 00:05:54.515
Of the lord. the days are coming,
00:05:54.581 --> 00:05:55.382
The days are coming, when all that is in your house,
00:05:55.449 --> 00:05:57.584
When all that is in your house, and what your fathers
00:05:57.651 --> 00:05:58.585
And what your fathers have accumulated until this day,
00:05:58.652 --> 00:06:01.588
Have accumulated until this day, everything is going
00:06:01.655 --> 00:06:03.157
Everything is going to be carried away to babylon
00:06:03.223 --> 00:06:05.526
To be carried away to babylon and nothing will be left.
00:06:05.592 --> 00:06:08.495
And nothing will be left. they are going to take your
00:06:08.562 --> 00:06:09.329
They are going to take your descendants and your descendants
00:06:09.396 --> 00:06:11.532
Descendants and your descendants will become eunuchs
00:06:11.598 --> 00:06:13.100
Will become eunuchs in the palace of the king
00:06:13.167 --> 00:06:14.802
In the palace of the king of babylon."
00:06:14.868 --> 00:06:17.671
Of babylon." now, what would you
00:06:17.738 --> 00:06:18.405
Now, what would you think hezekiah's response
00:06:18.472 --> 00:06:19.406
Think hezekiah's response to this would be?
00:06:19.473 --> 00:06:20.874
To this would be? i mean, how should a king react?
00:06:20.941 --> 00:06:23.343
I mean, how should a king react? shouldn't he fall on his face
00:06:23.410 --> 00:06:24.678
Shouldn't he fall on his face and beg for mercy?
00:06:24.745 --> 00:06:25.746
And beg for mercy? shouldn't he repent of his pride
00:06:25.813 --> 00:06:27.648
Shouldn't he repent of his pride and ask for god to spare
00:06:27.714 --> 00:06:28.816
And ask for god to spare his children
00:06:28.882 --> 00:06:29.483
His children and his grandchildren?
00:06:29.550 --> 00:06:30.651
And his grandchildren? no.
00:06:30.717 --> 00:06:32.352
No. in cowardly arrogance,
00:06:32.419 --> 00:06:34.021
In cowardly arrogance, hezekiah says to isaiah
00:06:34.087 --> 00:06:36.056
Hezekiah says to isaiah in verse 19,
00:06:36.123 --> 00:06:37.424
In verse 19, "'the word of the lord
00:06:37.491 --> 00:06:38.559
"'the word of the lord that you have spoken is good.'
00:06:38.625 --> 00:06:41.995
That you have spoken is good.' for he said,
00:06:42.062 --> 00:06:42.563
For he said, 'will there not be
00:06:42.629 --> 00:06:43.564
'will there not be peace and truth,
00:06:43.630 --> 00:06:45.666
Peace and truth, at least in my day?'"
00:06:45.732 --> 00:06:49.269
At least in my day?'" he said,
00:06:49.336 --> 00:06:49.837
He said, "i don't really care what
00:06:49.903 --> 00:06:50.704
"i don't really care what god's going to do to my kids
00:06:50.771 --> 00:06:52.105
God's going to do to my kids and my grandkids,
00:06:52.172 --> 00:06:53.373
And my grandkids, at least there will
00:06:53.440 --> 00:06:54.441
At least there will be peace in my day."
00:06:54.508 --> 00:06:56.510
Don't you think that we're doing
00:06:58.679 --> 00:06:59.446
Don't you think that we're doing the same thing in
00:06:59.513 --> 00:07:00.347
The same thing in this generation today?
00:07:00.414 --> 00:07:03.984
This generation today? oh, we talk about the secular
00:07:04.051 --> 00:07:06.286
Oh, we talk about the secular progressive agenda,
00:07:06.353 --> 00:07:07.287
Progressive agenda, but we just, kinda,
00:07:07.354 --> 00:07:07.988
But we just, kinda, flip our hands at it
00:07:08.055 --> 00:07:09.156
Flip our hands at it and say,
00:07:09.223 --> 00:07:09.556
And say, "what's a guy to do?"
00:07:09.623 --> 00:07:13.260
"what's a guy to do?" we ignore how they're
00:07:13.327 --> 00:07:14.528
We ignore how they're indoctrinating and enslaving our
00:07:14.595 --> 00:07:16.630
Indoctrinating and enslaving our children and our grandchildren.
00:07:16.697 --> 00:07:19.833
Children and our grandchildren. we don't wanna rock the boat
00:07:19.900 --> 00:07:20.901
We don't wanna rock the boat because maybe there will
00:07:20.968 --> 00:07:21.735
Because maybe there will be some peace in our time.
00:07:21.802 --> 00:07:24.004
Be some peace in our time. we hope somebody else might come
00:07:24.071 --> 00:07:25.305
We hope somebody else might come along and solve the problem,
00:07:25.372 --> 00:07:27.007
Along and solve the problem, but we're not going
00:07:27.074 --> 00:07:27.608
But we're not going to do anything
00:07:27.674 --> 00:07:28.509
To do anything to solve it ourselves.
00:07:28.575 --> 00:07:31.845
To solve it ourselves. you see, right now, as a nation,
00:07:31.912 --> 00:07:33.547
You see, right now, as a nation, we're at a crossroads.
00:07:33.614 --> 00:07:36.350
We're at a crossroads. this crossroads is between
00:07:36.416 --> 00:07:37.684
This crossroads is between democracy and socialism.
00:07:37.751 --> 00:07:40.387
Democracy and socialism. this crossroad is between
00:07:40.454 --> 00:07:41.622
This crossroad is between liberty and tyranny.
00:07:41.688 --> 00:07:43.690
Liberty and tyranny. this crossroad is between law
00:07:43.757 --> 00:07:45.592
This crossroad is between law and order or lawlessness
00:07:45.659 --> 00:07:47.494
And order or lawlessness and chaos.
00:07:47.561 --> 00:07:49.763
And chaos. and if you don't think
00:07:49.830 --> 00:07:50.464
And if you don't think that the crossroads
00:07:50.531 --> 00:07:51.265
That the crossroads is a strong enough analogy,
00:07:51.331 --> 00:07:52.799
Is a strong enough analogy, then let me tell you,
00:07:52.866 --> 00:07:53.800
Then let me tell you, we are on the edge of the cliff.
00:07:53.867 --> 00:07:57.271
We are on the edge of the cliff. we are standing on the platform
00:07:57.337 --> 00:07:59.473
We are standing on the platform about to bungee jump
00:07:59.540 --> 00:08:00.874
About to bungee jump and we don't have a bungee.
00:08:00.941 --> 00:08:06.713
And we don't have a bungee. why am i saying this
00:08:06.780 --> 00:08:07.614
Why am i saying this as clearly as i can?
00:08:07.681 --> 00:08:08.849
As clearly as i can? because just like isaiah came
00:08:08.916 --> 00:08:10.684
Because just like isaiah came in and warned hezekiah,
00:08:10.751 --> 00:08:12.119
In and warned hezekiah, i feel like a watchman
00:08:12.185 --> 00:08:13.654
I feel like a watchman compelled by god to come
00:08:13.720 --> 00:08:16.290
Compelled by god to come in and warn this generation.
00:08:16.356 --> 00:08:18.392
In and warn this generation. if we do not make
00:08:18.458 --> 00:08:20.360
If we do not make the right decision today,
00:08:20.427 --> 00:08:22.195
The right decision today, we are going to forfeit
00:08:22.262 --> 00:08:23.697
We are going to forfeit our children's life,
00:08:23.764 --> 00:08:25.198
Our children's life, their liberty,
00:08:25.265 --> 00:08:26.033
Their liberty, and their pursuit
00:08:26.099 --> 00:08:26.833
And their pursuit of happiness for tomorrow.
00:08:26.900 --> 00:08:28.569
Of happiness for tomorrow. they are going to be enslaved
00:08:28.635 --> 00:08:30.404
They are going to be enslaved by a system that is going
00:08:30.470 --> 00:08:32.005
By a system that is going to dictate every detail
00:08:32.072 --> 00:08:34.241
To dictate every detail of their existence.
00:08:34.308 --> 00:08:35.676
Of their existence. like hezekiah,
00:08:35.742 --> 00:08:37.244
Like hezekiah, we are being warned.
00:08:37.311 --> 00:08:38.645
We are being warned. like hezekiah,
00:08:38.712 --> 00:08:39.947
Like hezekiah, we have an opportunity
00:08:40.013 --> 00:08:41.281
We have an opportunity to make a decision today
00:08:41.348 --> 00:08:43.383
To make a decision today not to throw away our future
00:08:43.450 --> 00:08:45.819
Not to throw away our future for our present comfort.
00:08:45.886 --> 00:08:47.187
For our present comfort. like hezekiah,
00:08:47.254 --> 00:08:48.522
Like hezekiah, we are where we are as a nation,
00:08:48.589 --> 00:08:50.924
We are where we are as a nation, not because we earned it,
00:08:50.991 --> 00:08:52.659
Not because we earned it, but because god blessed us.
00:08:52.726 --> 00:08:54.695
But because god blessed us. not because we deserve it,
00:08:54.761 --> 00:08:56.563
Not because we deserve it, but because god has spared us.
00:08:56.630 --> 00:08:58.599
But because god has spared us. when we stand at this crossroad,
00:08:58.665 --> 00:09:00.867
When we stand at this crossroad, do not see yourself
00:09:00.934 --> 00:09:02.536
Do not see yourself as the individual who would
00:09:02.603 --> 00:09:03.971
As the individual who would live under your decision,
00:09:04.037 --> 00:09:05.372
Live under your decision, but look into the eyes
00:09:05.439 --> 00:09:06.640
But look into the eyes of your children
00:09:06.707 --> 00:09:07.541
Of your children and your grandchildren,
00:09:07.608 --> 00:09:09.209
And your grandchildren, and recognize that if
00:09:09.276 --> 00:09:10.444
And recognize that if we do not have a revival
00:09:10.510 --> 00:09:11.912
We do not have a revival of righteousness in this nation,
00:09:11.979 --> 00:09:13.981
Of righteousness in this nation, this nation will be lost.
00:09:14.047 --> 00:09:15.916
This nation will be lost. we must have a humbling
00:09:15.983 --> 00:09:18.051
We must have a humbling and a repentance,
00:09:18.118 --> 00:09:19.553
And a repentance, not in the white house,
00:09:19.620 --> 00:09:21.021
Not in the white house, but in your house.
00:09:21.088 --> 00:09:22.389
But in your house. not just in your house,
00:09:22.456 --> 00:09:23.991
Not just in your house, but in the church house.
00:09:24.057 --> 00:09:25.592
But in the church house. we must stand against
00:09:25.659 --> 00:09:27.427
We must stand against the godless, immoral,
00:09:27.494 --> 00:09:29.196
The godless, immoral, corrupt evil that has
00:09:29.262 --> 00:09:30.831
Corrupt evil that has saturated our culture.
00:09:30.897 --> 00:09:32.466
Saturated our culture. we must take our churches back
00:09:32.532 --> 00:09:34.501
We must take our churches back to the preaching of the gospel
00:09:34.568 --> 00:09:36.236
To the preaching of the gospel and the word of the lord
00:09:36.303 --> 00:09:37.604
And the word of the lord with holy spirit conviction,
00:09:37.671 --> 00:09:39.573
With holy spirit conviction, and without apology.
00:09:39.640 --> 00:09:41.341
And without apology. if his truth makes you
00:09:41.408 --> 00:09:43.043
If his truth makes you uncomfortable, get over it,
00:09:43.110 --> 00:09:45.312
Uncomfortable, get over it, but don't stop declaring
00:09:45.379 --> 00:09:47.180
But don't stop declaring what god has already
00:09:47.247 --> 00:09:48.548
What god has already decreed to be true.
00:09:48.615 --> 00:09:49.916
Decreed to be true. we must take our cities
00:09:49.983 --> 00:09:51.652
We must take our cities back to law and order,
00:09:51.718 --> 00:09:53.353
Back to law and order, to truth and justice.
00:09:53.420 --> 00:09:54.955
To truth and justice. we must take our schools
00:09:55.022 --> 00:09:56.490
We must take our schools back to training up our children
00:09:56.556 --> 00:09:58.625
Back to training up our children in the way they should go,
00:09:58.692 --> 00:10:00.193
In the way they should go, and teaching them,
00:10:00.260 --> 00:10:01.828
And teaching them, not indoctrinating them.
00:10:01.895 --> 00:10:03.664
Not indoctrinating them. we must take this nation
00:10:03.730 --> 00:10:05.399
We must take this nation back to
00:10:05.465 --> 00:10:05.966
Back to "in god we trust"
00:10:06.033 --> 00:10:07.334
"in god we trust" or we will be a nation
00:10:07.401 --> 00:10:09.002
Or we will be a nation gone under.
00:10:09.069 --> 00:10:10.137
Gone under. let god arise and let his
00:10:10.203 --> 00:10:12.239
Let god arise and let his enemies be scattered.
00:10:12.305 --> 00:10:13.407
[applause]
00:10:13.907 --> 00:10:17.244
In his sermon, jesus spoke
00:10:17.811 --> 00:10:19.780
Seven powerful words
00:10:19.780 --> 00:10:21.114
That resonate through time.
00:10:21.114 --> 00:10:22.849
You are the light of the world.
00:10:22.849 --> 00:10:25.318
As believers,
00:10:25.318 --> 00:10:26.253
We are commissioned to be light
00:10:26.253 --> 00:10:28.221
In a world
00:10:28.221 --> 00:10:29.022
Surrounded in darkness,
00:10:29.022 --> 00:10:30.357
Pain and loss.
00:10:30.357 --> 00:10:32.025
Now is the time to stand up,
00:10:32.025 --> 00:10:33.794
Speak out and shine
00:10:33.794 --> 00:10:35.328
Brightly for jesus.

Matches, to continue

00:11:21.141 --> 00:11:22.008
Because if we don't do this now,
00:11:22.075 --> 00:11:25.645
Do this now, we are going to forfeit
00:11:25.712 --> 00:11:26.747
We are going to forfeit the future of our children.
00:11:26.813 --> 00:11:29.983
The future of our children. if we don't do this now,
00:11:30.050 --> 00:11:31.318
If we don't do this now, i say this so that you
00:11:31.384 --> 00:11:32.853
I say this so that you understand how important
00:11:32.919 --> 00:11:34.588
Understand how important and how crucial this
00:11:34.654 --> 00:11:35.422
And how crucial this decision is, we are going
00:11:35.489 --> 00:11:38.225
Decision is, we are going to neuter their potential.
00:11:38.291 --> 00:11:42.429
To neuter their potential. you say, "what?"
00:11:42.496 --> 00:11:44.698
You say, "what?" that's in the bible.
00:11:44.765 --> 00:11:47.033
That's in the bible. daniel is 17.
00:11:47.100 --> 00:11:49.803
Daniel is 17. a young man full of potential.
00:11:49.870 --> 00:11:52.572
A young man full of potential. a young man who should
00:11:52.639 --> 00:11:53.573
A young man who should be looking for a wife,
00:11:53.640 --> 00:11:54.808
Be looking for a wife, waiting to start a family.
00:11:54.875 --> 00:11:57.344
Waiting to start a family. a young man who has studied
00:11:57.410 --> 00:11:58.612
A young man who has studied to show himself approved.
00:11:58.678 --> 00:11:59.880
To show himself approved. he's excellent in every way.
00:11:59.946 --> 00:12:03.850
He's excellent in every way. and yet, in 2 kings,
00:12:03.917 --> 00:12:04.985
And yet, in 2 kings, isaiah tells hezekiah,
00:12:05.051 --> 00:12:06.953
Isaiah tells hezekiah, "your descendants
00:12:07.020 --> 00:12:08.088
"your descendants will become eunuchs.
00:12:08.155 --> 00:12:12.225
Will become eunuchs. their potential's going
00:12:12.292 --> 00:12:13.059
Their potential's going to be gone.
00:12:13.126 --> 00:12:15.996
To be gone. their vitality is going
00:12:16.062 --> 00:12:17.197
Their vitality is going to be removed."
00:12:17.264 --> 00:12:19.866
To be removed." daniel 1:3-4,
00:12:19.933 --> 00:12:22.102
Daniel 1:3-4, "then the king,"
00:12:22.169 --> 00:12:23.336
"then the king," this is nebuchadnezzar,
00:12:23.403 --> 00:12:24.738
This is nebuchadnezzar, "tells ashpenaz
00:12:24.805 --> 00:12:26.873
"tells ashpenaz the master of his eunuchs,
00:12:26.940 --> 00:12:28.909
The master of his eunuchs, to bring some
00:12:28.975 --> 00:12:29.576
To bring some of the children of israel,
00:12:29.643 --> 00:12:31.545
Of the children of israel, the king's descendants
00:12:31.611 --> 00:12:32.646
The king's descendants who are noble,
00:12:32.712 --> 00:12:33.313
Who are noble, without blemish,
00:12:33.380 --> 00:12:34.047
Without blemish, good looking, gifted in wisdom,
00:12:34.114 --> 00:12:35.482
Good looking, gifted in wisdom, possessing knowledge
00:12:35.549 --> 00:12:36.316
Possessing knowledge and understanding that they may
00:12:36.383 --> 00:12:37.651
And understanding that they may serve in the king's palace."
00:12:37.717 --> 00:12:40.420
Serve in the king's palace." daniel was one of these who was
00:12:40.487 --> 00:12:42.055
Daniel was one of these who was chosen because he was noble,
00:12:42.122 --> 00:12:44.224
Chosen because he was noble, he was without blemish,
00:12:44.291 --> 00:12:45.625
He was without blemish, he was of
00:12:45.692 --> 00:12:46.159
He was of the king's descendants,
00:12:46.226 --> 00:12:47.060
The king's descendants, he was gifted in wisdom,
00:12:47.127 --> 00:12:48.361
He was gifted in wisdom, possessing knowledge,
00:12:48.428 --> 00:12:49.496
Possessing knowledge, and having understanding.
00:12:49.563 --> 00:12:50.730
And having understanding. he was the best
00:12:50.797 --> 00:12:51.698
He was the best and the brightest,
00:12:51.765 --> 00:12:52.599
And the brightest, and now his life is forever
00:12:52.666 --> 00:12:54.034
And now his life is forever forfeited as to what
00:12:54.100 --> 00:12:55.368
Forfeited as to what it could be,
00:12:55.435 --> 00:12:56.303
It could be, not because of what he did,
00:12:56.369 --> 00:12:57.838
Not because of what he did, but because of what
00:12:57.904 --> 00:12:58.538
But because of what hezekiah did.
00:12:58.605 --> 00:12:59.506
Daniel's serving in
00:13:01.274 --> 00:13:01.942
Daniel's serving in nebuchadnezzar's court,
00:13:02.008 --> 00:13:04.377
Nebuchadnezzar's court, and the first test that
00:13:04.444 --> 00:13:05.545
And the first test that he has is that he's going
00:13:05.612 --> 00:13:06.813
He has is that he's going to eat food that is
00:13:06.880 --> 00:13:08.181
To eat food that is offered to idols.
00:13:08.248 --> 00:13:11.751
Offered to idols. in daniel 1:20,
00:13:11.818 --> 00:13:13.086
In daniel 1:20, it says that after
00:13:13.153 --> 00:13:13.887
It says that after this time of testing,
00:13:13.954 --> 00:13:15.255
This time of testing, the bible says,
00:13:15.322 --> 00:13:16.156
The bible says, "in all matters,
00:13:16.223 --> 00:13:17.390
"in all matters, the king," nebuchadnezzar,
00:13:17.457 --> 00:13:19.426
The king," nebuchadnezzar, "he found daniel
00:13:19.492 --> 00:13:20.427
"he found daniel and his friends ten times,"
00:13:20.493 --> 00:13:22.829
And his friends ten times," somebody say,
00:13:22.896 --> 00:13:23.396
Somebody say, "ten times."
00:13:23.463 --> 00:13:24.364
"ten times." >> congregation: ten times.
00:13:24.431 --> 00:13:26.066
>> congregation: ten times. pastor matt: that's not
00:13:26.132 --> 00:13:26.733
Pastor matt: that's not a little better,
00:13:26.800 --> 00:13:27.133
A little better, that's a lot better.
00:13:27.200 --> 00:13:29.202
That's a lot better. "he found his friends ten times
00:13:29.269 --> 00:13:31.238
"he found his friends ten times better than all the magicians
00:13:31.304 --> 00:13:33.640
Better than all the magicians and all the astrologers
00:13:33.707 --> 00:13:35.175
And all the astrologers in all of the realm."
00:13:35.242 --> 00:13:37.277
In all of the realm." the point is god still
00:13:37.344 --> 00:13:38.445
The point is god still blesses the obedient,
00:13:38.511 --> 00:13:39.880
Blesses the obedient, even in a godless world.
00:13:39.946 --> 00:13:42.949
Even in a godless world. if your allegiance is
00:13:43.016 --> 00:13:44.017
If your allegiance is to the king of kings,
00:13:44.084 --> 00:13:45.285
To the king of kings, god's allegiance is with you.
00:13:45.352 --> 00:13:48.688
God's allegiance is with you. so, in daniel 2.
00:13:48.755 --> 00:13:50.190
So, in daniel 2. nebuchadnezzar has
00:13:50.257 --> 00:13:51.424
Nebuchadnezzar has a troubling dream.
00:13:51.491 --> 00:13:53.660
A troubling dream. he cannot sleep.
00:13:53.727 --> 00:13:55.528
He cannot sleep. and he calls all
00:13:55.595 --> 00:13:57.230
And he calls all of these wise men,
00:13:57.297 --> 00:13:58.865
Of these wise men, and magicians,
00:13:58.932 --> 00:13:59.799
And magicians, and astrologers of whom daniel
00:13:59.866 --> 00:14:01.768
And astrologers of whom daniel is numbered,
00:14:01.835 --> 00:14:03.470
Is numbered, and he tells them,
00:14:03.536 --> 00:14:04.337
And he tells them, "i've had a dream,
00:14:04.404 --> 00:14:06.206
"i've had a dream, and i can't sleep.
00:14:06.273 --> 00:14:08.408
And i can't sleep. and i want you to interpret this
00:14:08.475 --> 00:14:09.776
And i want you to interpret this dream and tell me what it means.
00:14:09.843 --> 00:14:12.445
Dream and tell me what it means. but in order for me
00:14:12.512 --> 00:14:13.280
But in order for me to trust your interpretation,
00:14:13.346 --> 00:14:15.148
To trust your interpretation, in order for me
00:14:15.215 --> 00:14:16.016
In order for me to know that the results
00:14:16.082 --> 00:14:17.651
To know that the results are "too big to rig."
00:14:17.717 --> 00:14:19.686
[laughter]
00:14:20.120 --> 00:14:21.988
I'm not gonna tell you
00:14:22.389 --> 00:14:23.056
I'm not gonna tell you what the dream was.
00:14:23.123 --> 00:14:25.025
What the dream was. you're gonna tell me
00:14:25.091 --> 00:14:26.693
You're gonna tell me what i dreamed,
00:14:26.760 --> 00:14:27.527
What i dreamed, and then when you tell
00:14:27.594 --> 00:14:28.762
And then when you tell me what i dreamed,
00:14:28.828 --> 00:14:29.963
Me what i dreamed, i'll tell you whether
00:14:30.030 --> 00:14:31.031
I'll tell you whether you're right or you're wrong,
00:14:31.097 --> 00:14:32.465
You're right or you're wrong, and then if you're right,
00:14:32.532 --> 00:14:33.767
And then if you're right, you can give me
00:14:33.833 --> 00:14:34.401
You can give me the interpretation,
00:14:34.467 --> 00:14:35.368
The interpretation, and if you're wrong,
00:14:35.435 --> 00:14:36.169
And if you're wrong, you're gonna lose your job."
00:14:36.236 --> 00:14:38.939
You're gonna lose your job." that's a milder version
00:14:39.005 --> 00:14:39.806
That's a milder version of how he put it.
00:14:39.873 --> 00:14:42.175
Of how he put it. but if you look at a modern
00:14:42.242 --> 00:14:43.076
But if you look at a modern context for just a moment,
00:14:43.143 --> 00:14:44.711
Context for just a moment, consider all these magicians
00:14:44.778 --> 00:14:46.079
Consider all these magicians and astrologers and wise men to,
00:14:46.146 --> 00:14:48.548
And astrologers and wise men to, kinda, be like the bureaucrats
00:14:48.615 --> 00:14:49.849
Kinda, be like the bureaucrats in a government.
00:14:49.916 --> 00:14:51.584
In a government. they were not elected,
00:14:51.651 --> 00:14:52.619
They were not elected, they were appointed,
00:14:52.686 --> 00:14:54.621
They were appointed, and they were appointed
00:14:54.688 --> 00:14:55.322
And they were appointed for a purpose.
00:14:55.388 --> 00:14:57.223
For a purpose. and rather than
00:14:57.290 --> 00:14:57.924
And rather than do their purpose,
00:14:57.991 --> 00:14:58.692
Do their purpose, they complain that they
00:14:58.758 --> 00:14:59.626
They complain that they don't have enough resources
00:14:59.693 --> 00:15:00.727
Don't have enough resources to do their job.
00:15:00.794 --> 00:15:04.164
To do their job. i mean literally,
00:15:04.230 --> 00:15:04.898
I mean literally, that's what it says
00:15:04.965 --> 00:15:05.699
That's what it says here in the bible,
00:15:05.765 --> 00:15:06.499
Here in the bible, daniel 2:10,
00:15:06.566 --> 00:15:07.801
Daniel 2:10, the wise men say,
00:15:07.867 --> 00:15:08.969
The wise men say, "there's not a man on earth
00:15:09.035 --> 00:15:10.437
"there's not a man on earth that can tell
00:15:10.503 --> 00:15:11.037
That can tell the king in this matter,"
00:15:11.104 --> 00:15:12.572
The king in this matter," i mean, isn't that just
00:15:12.639 --> 00:15:13.306
I mean, isn't that just like a government agent
00:15:13.373 --> 00:15:14.574
Like a government agent that just when you want them
00:15:14.641 --> 00:15:15.575
That just when you want them to do what they're
00:15:15.642 --> 00:15:16.242
To do what they're supposed to do,
00:15:16.309 --> 00:15:16.977
Supposed to do, they come up with a reason
00:15:17.043 --> 00:15:17.711
They come up with a reason why they can't do it
00:15:17.777 --> 00:15:18.778
Why they can't do it and they're "monitoring
00:15:18.845 --> 00:15:19.612
And they're "monitoring the situation,"
00:15:19.679 --> 00:15:20.347
The situation," and maybe they'll
00:15:20.413 --> 00:15:20.947
And maybe they'll give you an update,
00:15:21.014 --> 00:15:21.881
Give you an update, and details.
00:15:21.948 --> 00:15:22.482
And details. "well, we'll get back
00:15:22.549 --> 00:15:23.483
"well, we'll get back to you with that."
00:15:23.550 --> 00:15:27.087
To you with that." so, nebuchadnezzar's response?
00:15:27.153 --> 00:15:29.556
So, nebuchadnezzar's response? he says,
00:15:29.622 --> 00:15:29.923
He says, "i'm gonna drain the swamp.
00:15:29.990 --> 00:15:31.257
[applause]
00:15:32.359 --> 00:15:39.833
Here's how he said it,
00:15:40.233 --> 00:15:41.701
Here's how he said it, daniel 2:5, he says,
00:15:41.768 --> 00:15:43.937
Daniel 2:5, he says, "if you don't make this
00:15:44.004 --> 00:15:45.739
"if you don't make this dream known to me
00:15:45.805 --> 00:15:46.439
Dream known to me and its interpretation,
00:15:46.506 --> 00:15:48.341
And its interpretation, you shall be cut into pieces
00:15:48.408 --> 00:15:51.244
You shall be cut into pieces and your house shall
00:15:51.311 --> 00:15:52.379
And your house shall be turned into an ash heap."
00:15:52.445 --> 00:15:54.814
Be turned into an ash heap." i mean,
00:15:54.881 --> 00:15:55.348
I mean, it's not bad enough
00:15:55.415 --> 00:15:56.049
It's not bad enough that i'm gonna chop you up,
00:15:56.116 --> 00:15:58.385
That i'm gonna chop you up, after i'm done with that,
00:15:58.451 --> 00:15:59.285
After i'm done with that, i'm gonna burn
00:15:59.352 --> 00:15:59.853
I'm gonna burn your house down.
00:15:59.919 --> 00:16:03.323
Your house down. now, i know that some of us
00:16:03.390 --> 00:16:04.357
Now, i know that some of us think we're in a hostile
00:16:04.424 --> 00:16:05.358
Think we're in a hostile work environment,
00:16:05.425 --> 00:16:05.925
Work environment, but trust me,
00:16:05.992 --> 00:16:06.559
But trust me, your hr department
00:16:06.626 --> 00:16:07.927
Your hr department doesn't roll like that.
00:16:07.994 --> 00:16:09.329
[laughter]
00:16:09.896 --> 00:16:11.131
So, a decree is sent out,
00:16:13.833 --> 00:16:15.235
So, a decree is sent out, start killing all the wise men.
00:16:15.301 --> 00:16:17.604
Start killing all the wise men. and since daniel,
00:16:17.670 --> 00:16:18.371
And since daniel, meshach, shadrach,
00:16:18.438 --> 00:16:19.139
Meshach, shadrach, and abednego are numbered
00:16:19.205 --> 00:16:20.140
And abednego are numbered amongst them, soon,
00:16:20.206 --> 00:16:22.208
Amongst them, soon, nebuchadnezzar's human
00:16:22.275 --> 00:16:23.209
Nebuchadnezzar's human resource officer knocks
00:16:23.276 --> 00:16:24.377
Resource officer knocks on the door and says,
00:16:24.444 --> 00:16:25.311
On the door and says, "guys, we're downsizing
00:16:25.378 --> 00:16:27.514
"guys, we're downsizing your department one piece
00:16:27.580 --> 00:16:29.649
Your department one piece at a time.
00:16:29.716 --> 00:16:32.318
At a time. sorry.
00:16:32.385 --> 00:16:34.087
Sorry. here's a gift card."
00:16:34.154 --> 00:16:35.088
Here's a gift card." no.
00:16:35.155 --> 00:16:35.722
[laughter]
00:16:36.089 --> 00:16:38.358
When daniel hears the decree,
00:16:39.059 --> 00:16:41.161
When daniel hears the decree, he goes and he asks the king
00:16:41.227 --> 00:16:42.262
He goes and he asks the king for some more time because
00:16:42.328 --> 00:16:43.863
For some more time because he wants to pray to the god
00:16:43.930 --> 00:16:45.098
He wants to pray to the god of heaven and ask
00:16:45.165 --> 00:16:46.232
Of heaven and ask the god of heaven
00:16:46.299 --> 00:16:47.367
The god of heaven to give him,
00:16:47.434 --> 00:16:48.168
To give him, daniel, the interpretation
00:16:48.234 --> 00:16:49.235
Daniel, the interpretation of the dream.
00:16:49.302 --> 00:16:51.271
Of the dream. when daniel goes before
00:16:51.337 --> 00:16:52.138
When daniel goes before the god of heaven,
00:16:52.205 --> 00:16:53.039
The god of heaven, god not only gives him
00:16:53.106 --> 00:16:53.973
God not only gives him the details of the dream,
00:16:54.040 --> 00:16:55.141
The details of the dream, but he gives him an accurate
00:16:55.208 --> 00:16:56.176
But he gives him an accurate interpretation in such vivid
00:16:56.242 --> 00:16:58.111
Interpretation in such vivid detail that 2,600 years later,
00:16:58.178 --> 00:17:01.047
Detail that 2,600 years later, not even atheist or agnostics
00:17:01.114 --> 00:17:02.982
Not even atheist or agnostics who deny the bible will deny
00:17:03.049 --> 00:17:04.984
Who deny the bible will deny the accuracy of this 17-year-old
00:17:05.051 --> 00:17:07.220
The accuracy of this 17-year-old boy's dream.
00:17:07.287 --> 00:17:08.088
He goes to see nebuchadnezzar.
00:17:10.323 --> 00:17:13.426
He goes to see nebuchadnezzar. he goes to see him
00:17:13.493 --> 00:17:14.594
He goes to see him in the sixth century.
00:17:14.661 --> 00:17:16.963
In the sixth century. six hundred years before
00:17:17.030 --> 00:17:19.265
Six hundred years before jesus christ is born.
00:17:19.332 --> 00:17:22.035
Jesus christ is born. he says,
00:17:22.102 --> 00:17:22.602
He says, "king you had a dream,
00:17:22.669 --> 00:17:23.903
"king you had a dream, and in this dream,
00:17:23.970 --> 00:17:24.871
And in this dream, there was a head of gold,
00:17:24.938 --> 00:17:26.206
There was a head of gold, and then there
00:17:26.272 --> 00:17:26.840
And then there was a breastplate,
00:17:26.906 --> 00:17:27.841
Was a breastplate, and an area of arms of silver,
00:17:27.907 --> 00:17:30.110
And an area of arms of silver, and then there were loins
00:17:30.176 --> 00:17:31.377
And then there were loins that were gird in brass,
00:17:31.444 --> 00:17:32.946
That were gird in brass, and then there were legs
00:17:33.012 --> 00:17:33.980
And then there were legs of iron, and then there
00:17:34.047 --> 00:17:35.048
Of iron, and then there were ankles
00:17:35.115 --> 00:17:35.882
Were ankles and feet of iron and clay."
00:17:35.949 --> 00:17:39.452
And feet of iron and clay." daniel tells it
00:17:39.519 --> 00:17:40.153
Daniel tells it to nebuchadnezzar
00:17:40.220 --> 00:17:40.954
To nebuchadnezzar and nebuchadnezzar says,
00:17:41.020 --> 00:17:41.588
And nebuchadnezzar says, "that's it.
00:17:41.654 --> 00:17:43.823
"that's it. what does it mean?"
00:17:43.890 --> 00:17:46.359
What does it mean?" daniel says,
00:17:46.426 --> 00:17:46.860
Daniel says, "i'll tell you what it means.
00:17:46.926 --> 00:17:50.063
"i'll tell you what it means. king, you are the head of gold.
00:17:50.130 --> 00:17:52.465
King, you are the head of gold. you are the first empire
00:17:52.532 --> 00:17:54.901
You are the first empire to rule the world.
00:17:54.968 --> 00:17:56.269
To rule the world. you, at this moment in history,
00:17:56.336 --> 00:17:58.738
You, at this moment in history, are the king that is higher
00:17:58.805 --> 00:17:59.973
Are the king that is higher than all kings
00:18:00.039 --> 00:18:00.840
Than all kings here on the earth,
00:18:00.907 --> 00:18:01.774
Here on the earth, but you're not higher
00:18:01.841 --> 00:18:02.675
But you're not higher than the king of heaven."
00:18:02.742 --> 00:18:05.912
Than the king of heaven." now historically,
00:18:05.979 --> 00:18:07.013
Now historically, babylon came into power
00:18:07.080 --> 00:18:09.249
Babylon came into power in 586 before christ,
00:18:09.315 --> 00:18:11.518
In 586 before christ, and they ruled until 539.
00:18:11.584 --> 00:18:16.623
And they ruled until 539. daniel served nebuchadnezzar
00:18:16.689 --> 00:18:18.091
Daniel served nebuchadnezzar and his descendants in
00:18:18.158 --> 00:18:18.992
And his descendants in this time period,
00:18:19.058 --> 00:18:20.160
This time period, but he tells nebuchadnezzar
00:18:20.226 --> 00:18:22.028
But he tells nebuchadnezzar that there's a kingdom
00:18:22.095 --> 00:18:22.896
That there's a kingdom that's going to come
00:18:22.962 --> 00:18:23.696
That's going to come after his and overtake his,
00:18:23.763 --> 00:18:26.266
After his and overtake his, and this is represented
00:18:26.332 --> 00:18:28.234
And this is represented by the arms and the chest
00:18:28.301 --> 00:18:29.302
By the arms and the chest of silver.
00:18:29.369 --> 00:18:30.904
Of silver. this is the medo-persian empire,
00:18:30.970 --> 00:18:33.573
This is the medo-persian empire, which in history,
00:18:33.640 --> 00:18:34.607
Which in history, came into power in 539
00:18:34.674 --> 00:18:36.609
Came into power in 539 after the babylonians.
00:18:36.676 --> 00:18:38.211
After the babylonians. this is the story in the book
00:18:38.278 --> 00:18:39.579
This is the story in the book of daniel when they
00:18:39.646 --> 00:18:40.613
Of daniel when they see the writing on the wall,
00:18:40.680 --> 00:18:42.148
See the writing on the wall, and daniel tells
00:18:42.215 --> 00:18:43.516
And daniel tells nebuchadnezzar's grandson.
00:18:43.583 --> 00:18:45.218
Nebuchadnezzar's grandson. he says,
00:18:45.285 --> 00:18:45.652
He says, "you've been weighed,
00:18:45.718 --> 00:18:46.586
"you've been weighed, and tonight you're
00:18:46.653 --> 00:18:47.287
And tonight you're going to die."
00:18:47.353 --> 00:18:49.322
Going to die." trust me, when you go see
00:18:49.389 --> 00:18:50.990
Trust me, when you go see the king and you tell him your
00:18:51.057 --> 00:18:52.325
The king and you tell him your ticket's punched,
00:18:52.392 --> 00:18:54.661
Ticket's punched, you got some courage.
00:18:54.727 --> 00:18:57.297
You got some courage. but the medo-persian empire
00:18:57.363 --> 00:18:58.598
But the medo-persian empire takes over against
00:18:58.665 --> 00:19:00.567
Takes over against the babylonians
00:19:00.633 --> 00:19:01.534
The babylonians and rules until 332.
00:19:01.601 --> 00:19:03.369
And rules until 332. daniel served in
00:19:03.436 --> 00:19:05.371
Daniel served in the medo-persian empire
00:19:05.438 --> 00:19:06.839
The medo-persian empire under king darius.
00:19:06.906 --> 00:19:08.408
Under king darius. darius is the king that threw
00:19:08.474 --> 00:19:10.310
Darius is the king that threw him into the lion's den.
00:19:10.376 --> 00:19:13.279
Him into the lion's den. so, maybe you could say,
00:19:13.346 --> 00:19:14.380
So, maybe you could say, well daniel knew about
00:19:14.447 --> 00:19:15.481
Well daniel knew about the babylonians and daniel knew
00:19:15.548 --> 00:19:16.916
The babylonians and daniel knew about the persians."
00:19:16.983 --> 00:19:18.017
About the persians." well then how did
00:19:18.084 --> 00:19:18.885
Well then how did he know about the greeks?
00:19:18.952 --> 00:19:22.255
He know about the greeks? the greeks came to power
00:19:22.322 --> 00:19:23.423
The greeks came to power in 332 bc,
00:19:23.489 --> 00:19:25.124
In 332 bc, hundreds of years
00:19:25.191 --> 00:19:26.059
Hundreds of years after daniel is dead.
00:19:26.125 --> 00:19:28.695
After daniel is dead. the greeks came to power when
00:19:28.761 --> 00:19:30.396
The greeks came to power when alexander the great
00:19:30.463 --> 00:19:32.465
Alexander the great and his swift army
00:19:32.532 --> 00:19:35.368
And his swift army began conquering all
00:19:35.435 --> 00:19:36.903
Began conquering all of the known world.
00:19:36.970 --> 00:19:38.304
Of the known world. not only did they have military
00:19:38.371 --> 00:19:39.639
Not only did they have military success but their culture,
00:19:39.706 --> 00:19:41.774
Success but their culture, and their knowledge,
00:19:41.841 --> 00:19:42.709
And their knowledge, and their intellect spread
00:19:42.775 --> 00:19:44.310
And their intellect spread and is even impacting
00:19:44.377 --> 00:19:45.345
And is even impacting the world to this day.
00:19:45.411 --> 00:19:47.413
The world to this day. after this,
00:19:47.480 --> 00:19:48.248
After this, daniel goes on to describe
00:19:48.314 --> 00:19:49.916
Daniel goes on to describe the legs of iron,
00:19:49.983 --> 00:19:51.384
The legs of iron, which represent
00:19:51.451 --> 00:19:52.118
Which represent the roman empire.
00:19:52.185 --> 00:19:54.053
The roman empire. these legs of iron reflect
00:19:54.120 --> 00:19:56.956
These legs of iron reflect rome's strength,
00:19:57.023 --> 00:19:58.258
Rome's strength, their power,
00:19:58.324 --> 00:19:59.225
Their power, and their might,
00:19:59.292 --> 00:20:00.260
And their might, and their division.
00:20:00.326 --> 00:20:04.063
And their division. how could daniel know
00:20:04.130 --> 00:20:04.931
How could daniel know about the greeks,
00:20:04.998 --> 00:20:05.898
About the greeks, and how could daniel
00:20:05.965 --> 00:20:06.766
And how could daniel know about the romans?
00:20:06.833 --> 00:20:09.068
Know about the romans? the romans came to power
00:20:09.135 --> 00:20:10.270
The romans came to power in 63 bc,
00:20:10.336 --> 00:20:12.839
In 63 bc, and they ruled for almost
00:20:12.905 --> 00:20:14.440
And they ruled for almost 500 years after the death
00:20:14.507 --> 00:20:15.975
500 years after the death of christ.
00:20:16.042 --> 00:20:18.244
Of christ. how is it possible that daniel
00:20:18.311 --> 00:20:20.013
How is it possible that daniel knew that the romans were going
00:20:20.079 --> 00:20:21.381
Knew that the romans were going to be so powerful that they
00:20:21.447 --> 00:20:22.448
To be so powerful that they would pulverize every enemy
00:20:22.515 --> 00:20:24.684
Would pulverize every enemy that they faced,
00:20:24.751 --> 00:20:26.486
That they faced, but that they would
00:20:26.552 --> 00:20:27.086
But that they would have a civil war,
00:20:27.153 --> 00:20:28.154
Have a civil war, and there would be an
00:20:28.221 --> 00:20:28.788
And there would be an eastern and a western division
00:20:28.855 --> 00:20:30.857
Eastern and a western division of the roman empire until
00:20:30.923 --> 00:20:32.558
Of the roman empire until the fourth century when
00:20:32.625 --> 00:20:33.726
The fourth century when constantine would reunite rome.
00:20:33.793 --> 00:20:37.597
Constantine would reunite rome. not only does he describe
00:20:37.664 --> 00:20:38.531
Not only does he describe the roman empire,
00:20:38.598 --> 00:20:39.732
The roman empire, but he goes all the way
00:20:39.799 --> 00:20:40.967
But he goes all the way into the world today.
00:20:41.034 --> 00:20:44.837
Into the world today. and he says,
00:20:44.904 --> 00:20:45.305
And he says, "the ankles and the feet
00:20:45.371 --> 00:20:46.739
"the ankles and the feet of this statue are made
00:20:46.806 --> 00:20:48.308
Of this statue are made up of iron and of clay."
00:20:48.374 --> 00:20:51.611
Up of iron and of clay." the reason that this represents
00:20:51.678 --> 00:20:52.779
The reason that this represents the world today is because
00:20:52.845 --> 00:20:54.580
The world today is because this represents a world
00:20:54.647 --> 00:20:55.615
This represents a world where things just don't mix.
00:20:55.682 --> 00:21:00.486
Where things just don't mix. and that's where
00:21:00.553 --> 00:21:00.987
And that's where we are right now.
00:21:01.054 --> 00:21:03.289
We are right now. we live in a world where
00:21:03.356 --> 00:21:04.524
We live in a world where things just don't mix.
00:21:04.590 --> 00:21:06.492
Things just don't mix. we're all stuck together
00:21:06.559 --> 00:21:07.994
We're all stuck together but we don't get
00:21:08.061 --> 00:21:08.728
But we don't get along very well.
00:21:08.795 --> 00:21:09.529
Nations of iron economically
00:21:11.030 --> 00:21:13.232
Nations of iron economically are strong financially.
00:21:13.299 --> 00:21:14.867
Are strong financially. why?
00:21:14.934 --> 00:21:15.601
Why? because they have free
00:21:15.668 --> 00:21:16.836
Because they have free market enterprise.
00:21:16.903 --> 00:21:18.938
Market enterprise. because they have capitalism.
00:21:19.005 --> 00:21:20.506
Because they have capitalism. because they have low
00:21:20.573 --> 00:21:21.774
Because they have low government regulation.
00:21:21.841 --> 00:21:23.876
Government regulation. but those kinds of nations
00:21:23.943 --> 00:21:25.745
But those kinds of nations that have free capital markets,
00:21:25.812 --> 00:21:27.680
That have free capital markets, they don't mix
00:21:27.747 --> 00:21:28.314
They don't mix with communist countries
00:21:28.381 --> 00:21:29.782
With communist countries and socialist countries
00:21:29.849 --> 00:21:30.983
And socialist countries and dictatorships.
00:21:31.050 --> 00:21:33.653
And dictatorships. militarily, we have nations
00:21:33.720 --> 00:21:35.621
Militarily, we have nations that don't mix.
00:21:35.688 --> 00:21:36.489
That don't mix. you have nations that
00:21:36.556 --> 00:21:37.323
You have nations that are militarily strong,
00:21:37.390 --> 00:21:38.691
Are militarily strong, they have a massive
00:21:38.758 --> 00:21:39.325
They have a massive amount of weapons,
00:21:39.392 --> 00:21:40.460
Amount of weapons, and you have nations
00:21:40.526 --> 00:21:41.527
And you have nations that are militarily weak.
00:21:41.594 --> 00:21:42.895
That are militarily weak. and those who are strong
00:21:42.962 --> 00:21:44.297
And those who are strong are giving money and guns
00:21:44.364 --> 00:21:45.531
Are giving money and guns to those who are weak,
00:21:45.598 --> 00:21:46.632
To those who are weak, and those who are weak
00:21:46.699 --> 00:21:47.567

The bible says, you don't mix
00:21:59.645 --> 00:22:00.480
You don't mix with a woke culture.
00:22:00.546 --> 00:22:03.149
With a woke culture. people ask the question,
00:22:03.216 --> 00:22:04.050

We cannot. why?
00:22:10.390 --> 00:22:10.723
Why? because if you believe
00:22:10.790 --> 00:22:11.758
Because if you believe what the bible says,
00:22:11.824 --> 00:22:12.825
What the bible says, that god made them
00:22:12.892 --> 00:22:13.926
That god made them male and female,
00:22:13.993 --> 00:22:15.194
Male and female, that doesn't mix
00:22:15.261 --> 00:22:16.362
That doesn't mix with 39 pronouns
00:22:16.429 --> 00:22:17.897

The bible says that, "all life is in the blood,"
00:22:34.614 --> 00:22:36.315
"all life is in the blood," that doesn't mix with having
00:22:36.382 --> 00:22:37.850
That doesn't mix with having an abortion on a demand
00:22:37.917 --> 00:22:39.519
An abortion on a demand and calling
00:22:39.585 --> 00:22:40.119
