Joseph Prince | Joseph Prince - Hope Is Missing In The Last Days | March 26, 2026

...
00:00:00.633 --> 00:00:10.887
Joseph prince: 1 thessalonians, he says,
00:00:13.089 --> 00:00:14.290
"your work of faith, your labor of love,
00:00:14.424 --> 00:00:17.360
Your patience of hope," so faith, hope, and love.
00:00:17.494 --> 00:00:21.064
But do you know something?
00:00:21.197 --> 00:00:22.398
By the way, we know what's faith.
00:00:22.532 --> 00:00:23.733
Faith is still being taught today.
00:00:23.867 --> 00:00:24.501
We know what's love.
00:00:25.068 --> 00:00:26.402
Love has been preached, thank god.
00:00:26.402 --> 00:00:27.737
But hope, the blessed hope, is now forgotten.
00:00:27.737 --> 00:00:31.841
Are you listening, people?
00:00:31.841 --> 00:00:33.510
In other words, people are now thinking that,
00:00:33.510 --> 00:00:36.513
Oh, it's not practical to preach the second coming.
00:00:36.513 --> 00:00:38.414
You've got different views, that kind of thing.
00:00:38.414 --> 00:00:39.916
The devil has so deceived people
00:00:39.916 --> 00:00:43.153
That they are no longer preaching
00:00:43.153 --> 00:00:44.487
Something that will give them hope.
00:00:44.487 --> 00:00:46.022
2 thessalonians, the first chapter, in verse 3,
00:00:46.022 --> 00:00:49.692
Paul says, "your faith is growing exceedingly.
00:00:49.692 --> 00:00:52.562
Your love increases," but he never mentioned hope.
00:00:52.562 --> 00:00:55.832
What happened? they lost the hope.
00:00:55.832 --> 00:00:57.167
The people were waiting for the rapture.
00:00:57.167 --> 00:00:58.501
They did not know when it's going to happen.
00:00:58.501 --> 00:01:00.036
And today we see people thinking, "when is it?
00:01:00.036 --> 00:01:03.673
You know, pastor prince,
00:01:03.673 --> 00:01:05.108
We've been waiting for a long time.
00:01:05.108 --> 00:01:06.442
I believe that those who preach second coming and all that,
00:01:06.442 --> 00:01:08.278
It's just confusion and it's not practical."
00:01:08.278 --> 00:01:10.380
Who told you it's not practical?
00:01:10.380 --> 00:01:11.714
The more you see the second coming of christ,
00:01:11.714 --> 00:01:13.049
The more you see the money
00:01:13.049 --> 00:01:14.551
And whatever god has blessed you with as tools.
00:01:14.551 --> 00:01:19.422
You learn to live life in such a way
00:01:19.422 --> 00:01:21.457
That you are focused on his coming, amen.
00:01:21.457 --> 00:01:25.328
You have hope.
00:01:25.328 --> 00:01:27.397
Announcer: how would you spend today
00:01:27.397 --> 00:01:28.731
If you knew tomorrow was the rapture?
00:01:28.731 --> 00:01:31.134
We've seen enough movies to have an idea,
00:01:31.134 --> 00:01:33.002
But what does the bible really say?
00:01:33.002 --> 00:01:35.271
In today's message, joseph prince
00:01:35.271 --> 00:01:36.973
Unpacks this blessed hope
00:01:36.973 --> 00:01:39.008
And reveals powerful truths about the last days.
00:01:39.008 --> 00:01:42.178
When you think about the rapture,
00:01:42.178 --> 00:01:43.546
Have you ever wondered, "will i be left behind,"
00:01:43.546 --> 00:01:46.416
"will the end times be filled with fear"?
00:01:46.416 --> 00:01:49.319
In his book, "ready for the rapture,"
00:01:49.319 --> 00:01:51.221
Joseph reveals why the rapture
00:01:51.221 --> 00:01:52.722
Is not a reason to fear, but a promise of peace,
00:01:52.722 --> 00:01:55.625
Security, hope, and joy in these last days.
00:01:55.625 --> 00:01:59.329
In these pages, discover how to live in hope
00:01:59.329 --> 00:02:01.531
When the world feels hopeless,

Walk in confidence when things feel dark and uncertain,
00:02:03.333 --> 00:02:06.302
And shine with the light of christ
00:02:06.302 --> 00:02:08.004
In a world that seems more complex
00:02:08.004 --> 00:02:10.106

Announcer: and now, here is pastor joseph prince
00:02:40.336 --> 00:02:42.605
With today's program.
00:02:42.605 --> 00:02:44.040
Joseph prince: we are now in the season of the rapture.
00:02:44.040 --> 00:02:46.609
We know we are in the season but no one can give you
00:02:46.609 --> 00:02:48.578
The date nor the day because jesus himself says,
00:02:48.578 --> 00:02:50.546
"no one knows the day nor the hour."
00:02:50.546 --> 00:02:53.316
But we know the season.
00:02:53.316 --> 00:02:54.851
We are not children of the night.
00:02:54.851 --> 00:02:56.386
Can i have a good amen?
00:02:56.386 --> 00:02:57.720
So we're waiting for our bridegroom.
00:02:57.720 --> 00:02:59.355
So when he comes, he can come in the middle of the night
00:02:59.355 --> 00:03:01.891
Like the parable of our lord said.
00:03:01.891 --> 00:03:04.227
And when he shouts, the bride is ready.
00:03:04.227 --> 00:03:07.397
Are you listening, people, amen?
00:03:07.397 --> 00:03:09.632
And then he will take the bride
00:03:09.632 --> 00:03:11.234
To his house that he has prepared
00:03:11.234 --> 00:03:13.336
And she will be there, there will be a celebration
00:03:13.336 --> 00:03:15.405
For one week, seven days, on earth.
00:03:15.405 --> 00:03:18.541
We'll be in heaven celebrating
00:03:18.541 --> 00:03:20.777
The marriage supper of the lamb, amen.
00:03:20.777 --> 00:03:23.046
We are the bride.
00:03:23.046 --> 00:03:24.380
And on earth, there will be seven years of tribulation.
00:03:24.380 --> 00:03:28.318
And then at the end of the seven years,
00:03:28.318 --> 00:03:29.652
Christ will come back with all of us
00:03:29.652 --> 00:03:31.688
And judge the earth
00:03:31.688 --> 00:03:33.022
And establish a new heaven and a new earth
00:03:33.022 --> 00:03:35.391
Wherein dwelleth righteousness, amen.
00:03:35.391 --> 00:03:37.960
And there will be peace, hallelujah.
00:03:37.960 --> 00:03:40.463
There will be blessings.
00:03:40.463 --> 00:03:41.964
There will be complete harmony. there will be no disease.
00:03:41.964 --> 00:03:45.468
There will be no sicknesses, amen.
00:03:45.468 --> 00:03:47.537
Praise the name of jesus
00:03:47.537 --> 00:03:48.871
And all the people said amen, all right?
00:03:48.871 --> 00:03:52.608
Now, that 1000-year rule, people will still die
00:03:52.608 --> 00:03:54.777
But they are not people who are saved and have a new body.
00:03:54.777 --> 00:03:57.347
They are people who are on earth.
00:03:57.347 --> 00:03:58.681
That's another message altogether, all right?
00:03:58.681 --> 00:04:00.550
But here i'm telling you, church,
00:04:00.550 --> 00:04:01.884
This is the part that's not preached much,
00:04:01.884 --> 00:04:04.354
The third dimension.
00:04:04.354 --> 00:04:06.089
Do you know that in your bible, in the old testament,
00:04:06.089 --> 00:04:10.093
17 books, 1-7, of the old testament
00:04:10.093 --> 00:04:15.531
Teaches on the second coming of the lord?
00:04:15.531 --> 00:04:18.234
Do you know that your new testament,
00:04:18.234 --> 00:04:19.802
You have how many books?
00:04:19.802 --> 00:04:21.537
Sixty-six-- sorry, twenty-seven books
00:04:21.537 --> 00:04:23.473
In the new chapter, entire-- in the new testament.
00:04:23.473 --> 00:04:25.908
In the entire bible, 66 books, right?
00:04:25.908 --> 00:04:28.244
New testament alone, you have 27 books.
00:04:28.244 --> 00:04:31.180
Out of 27 books, 23 books talks about the second coming.
00:04:31.180 --> 00:04:36.786
Do you think there's a lot of emphasis there?
00:04:36.786 --> 00:04:39.389
Do you know that you have 260 chapters
00:04:39.389 --> 00:04:46.162
In the entire new testament?
00:04:46.162 --> 00:04:48.798
And 321 times
00:04:48.798 --> 00:04:52.568
In the 260 chapters in the new testament,
00:04:52.568 --> 00:04:54.971
The second coming is mentioned.
00:04:54.971 --> 00:04:57.573
Is that a lot of emphasis?
00:04:57.573 --> 00:04:59.275
One out of every thirty verses, 3-0,
00:04:59.275 --> 00:05:03.579
Talks about the second coming of christ.
00:05:03.579 --> 00:05:06.215
Hmm?
00:05:06.215 --> 00:05:07.550
Do you think it's a lot of emphasis?
00:05:07.550 --> 00:05:08.985
And do you know what the rapture is all about?
00:05:08.985 --> 00:05:11.087
The rapture is actually us receiving our final gift
00:05:11.087 --> 00:05:17.226
That was purchased for us by jesus's blood.
00:05:17.226 --> 00:05:20.096
Do you know that there's one final gift
00:05:20.096 --> 00:05:21.431
That you and i don't have right now?
00:05:21.431 --> 00:05:23.099
You know what is it? a brand-new body.
00:05:23.099 --> 00:05:26.669
Let's read this in philippians.
00:05:26.669 --> 00:05:28.504
It says: "for our citizenship is in heaven,
00:05:28.504 --> 00:05:30.373
From which we also eagerly wait for the savior,
00:05:30.373 --> 00:05:33.476
The lord jesus christ."
00:05:33.476 --> 00:05:34.811
If you're not eagerly waiting for the lord jesus christ,
00:05:34.811 --> 00:05:37.280
I believe by the end of this message, you will be.
00:05:37.280 --> 00:05:41.117
We are eagerly waiting.
00:05:41.117 --> 00:05:42.452
And who wrote this?
00:05:42.452 --> 00:05:43.786
The apostle of grace, paul himself.
00:05:43.786 --> 00:05:45.321
He says, "we are eagerly waiting for the savior,
00:05:45.321 --> 00:05:47.323
The lord jesus christ,
00:05:47.323 --> 00:05:48.658
Who will transform our lowly body
00:05:48.658 --> 00:05:52.061
That it may be conformed to his glorious body,
00:05:52.061 --> 00:05:55.298
According to the working by which he is able
00:05:55.298 --> 00:05:57.567
Even to subdue all things to himself."
00:05:57.567 --> 00:05:59.802
So when jesus comes again in the rapture,
00:05:59.802 --> 00:06:02.071
The first thing that will happen
00:06:02.071 --> 00:06:03.773
Is that our bodies will be transformed
00:06:03.773 --> 00:06:05.975
And he calls it our lowly bodies
00:06:05.975 --> 00:06:07.777
Will be transformed like his glorious body.
00:06:07.777 --> 00:06:11.080
God never designed for you to have sickness
00:06:11.080 --> 00:06:14.517
Or even feel bored.
00:06:14.517 --> 00:06:16.185
It's not part of god's plan.
00:06:16.185 --> 00:06:17.520
God's love plan when god made man
00:06:17.520 --> 00:06:19.489
Is for man to live forever strong,
00:06:19.489 --> 00:06:21.557
Forever healthy, forever young.
00:06:21.557 --> 00:06:24.327
God never meant for man even to grow old and to die.
00:06:24.327 --> 00:06:27.930
"then pastor prince, what's this we see all around us
00:06:27.930 --> 00:06:29.665
And death is total and all that."
00:06:29.665 --> 00:06:31.868
Well, friend, it all happened because of sin.
00:06:31.868 --> 00:06:35.104
It all happened because of sin.
00:06:35.104 --> 00:06:36.439
"why didn't god stop
00:06:36.439 --> 00:06:37.773
The first man from sinning then?"
00:06:37.773 --> 00:06:39.108
Let me go back to the thing--
00:06:39.108 --> 00:06:40.710
You should have been around here last week.
00:06:40.710 --> 00:06:43.012
We go back to how god made man.
00:06:43.012 --> 00:06:44.981
God made man with a free choice.
00:06:44.981 --> 00:06:46.849
And god did not make a robot, c-3po or r2-d2, all right?
00:06:46.849 --> 00:06:50.887
God made man with a free choice, amen.
00:06:50.887 --> 00:06:53.890
If god uses his power, you know, to manipulate man's free choice,
00:06:53.890 --> 00:06:59.595
Then god is playing around with men,
00:06:59.595 --> 00:07:02.031
Giving men free choice.
00:07:02.031 --> 00:07:03.833
Another thing is this, people ask the question,
00:07:03.833 --> 00:07:05.434
"why did god plant that tree
00:07:05.434 --> 00:07:06.769
When that tree caused all the problem and all that?"
00:07:06.769 --> 00:07:08.771
Well, if god surrounds your first dad and mom
00:07:08.771 --> 00:07:13.643
With everything that is good and god says,
00:07:13.643 --> 00:07:15.444
"i give you free choice," but anything you choose is good.
00:07:15.444 --> 00:07:19.482
It's like, you know,
00:07:19.482 --> 00:07:20.816
You don't want your child to go out at all.
00:07:20.816 --> 00:07:23.486
But you bring all the toys
00:07:23.486 --> 00:07:24.820
And everything your child chooses is all good.
00:07:24.820 --> 00:07:27.290
Everything is organic.
00:07:27.290 --> 00:07:29.058
Everything is sanitized.
00:07:29.058 --> 00:07:31.227
But the child will grow up, what?
00:07:31.227 --> 00:07:32.562
Because the child is not able to grow
00:07:32.562 --> 00:07:35.097
Because there's no exercise of free choice.
00:07:35.097 --> 00:07:38.367
In order for free choice to be free, you've got to give
00:07:38.367 --> 00:07:41.203
At least one choice that's not good for man.
00:07:41.203 --> 00:07:45.174
Now, get that message.
00:07:45.174 --> 00:07:46.943
I'm not repeating myself, okay?
00:07:46.943 --> 00:07:48.377
So god cannot change--one thing he cannot change is
00:07:48.377 --> 00:07:51.781
You can choose whatever you want, yes,
00:07:51.781 --> 00:07:53.916
But you cannot choose the result of your choice.
00:07:53.916 --> 00:07:57.420
You cannot choose to change the result.
00:07:57.420 --> 00:07:59.655
If you choose fire, like i said before, fire burns.
00:07:59.655 --> 00:08:03.593
You cannot choose not to be burned.
00:08:03.593 --> 00:08:07.630
You choose finger in fire, you choose burn.
00:08:07.630 --> 00:08:12.635
You cannot say, i choose finger in fire,
00:08:12.635 --> 00:08:14.503
But i choose not burn.
00:08:14.503 --> 00:08:15.838
You cannot choose the result of your choice.
00:08:15.838 --> 00:08:20.042
Even god cannot change the result of man's choice.
00:08:20.042 --> 00:08:23.679
If he could, he would not send his son
00:08:23.679 --> 00:08:25.781
To die for our sins, amen.
00:08:25.781 --> 00:08:28.084
In order to save us,
00:08:28.084 --> 00:08:30.052
Jesus christ had to shed his blood.
00:08:30.052 --> 00:08:33.889
So that shows that god himself cannot change
00:08:33.889 --> 00:08:36.626
The consequence of sin except for a price, amen.
00:08:36.626 --> 00:08:41.097
And god sent his son to die for our sins.
00:08:41.097 --> 00:08:42.898
Are you listening, people?
00:08:42.898 --> 00:08:44.800
Amen, for god to create, god only had to speak.
00:08:44.800 --> 00:08:48.471
But for god to save and to redeem,
00:08:48.471 --> 00:08:51.407
He had to bleed.
00:08:51.407 --> 00:08:56.646
Are you all with me so far?
00:08:56.646 --> 00:09:00.316
That's the love story.
00:09:00.316 --> 00:09:02.918
And yet, the very breath god gives man,
00:09:02.918 --> 00:09:06.522
He uses that to speak against god,
00:09:06.522 --> 00:09:10.526
To blaspheme the name of the lord.
00:09:10.526 --> 00:09:13.129
It's the very breath he gives you.
00:09:13.129 --> 00:09:16.232
The bible says, god told, or rather daniel told
00:09:16.232 --> 00:09:20.536
The greatest king that ever lived during that time,
00:09:20.536 --> 00:09:25.174
The king of babylon, that god holds your nostrils
00:09:25.174 --> 00:09:29.612
And the breath of it in his hands.
00:09:29.612 --> 00:09:35.818
And yet, people use that breath that he gave to blaspheme him.
00:09:35.818 --> 00:09:40.423
Yet god still loves man.
00:09:40.423 --> 00:09:42.558
So friend, there are consequences to our action,
00:09:42.558 --> 00:09:48.164
Amen?
00:09:48.164 --> 00:09:49.699
We cannot change the consequence.
00:09:49.699 --> 00:09:51.167
Even god himself cannot change.
00:09:51.167 --> 00:09:52.702
God had to send his son to die for our consequence,
00:09:52.702 --> 00:09:55.971
To die for our sins, so that we can be free from that liability,
00:09:55.971 --> 00:10:01.210
So that we can be forgiven.
00:10:01.210 --> 00:10:02.545
That's grace.
00:10:02.545 --> 00:10:03.979
Can i have a good amen?
00:10:03.979 --> 00:10:05.381
Are you with me so far?
00:10:05.381 --> 00:10:06.716
All right, the bible says: "we shall not all sleep."
00:10:06.716 --> 00:10:10.419
We shall not all sleep means
00:10:10.419 --> 00:10:12.421
Not all of us are going to die when he comes.
00:10:12.421 --> 00:10:14.423
Some of us are still alive when he comes.
00:10:14.423 --> 00:10:16.625
"but we shall all be changed."
00:10:16.625 --> 00:10:19.762
We shall all.
00:10:19.762 --> 00:10:23.032
You know what's all?
00:10:23.032 --> 00:10:25.067
So sit down. keep quiet.
00:10:25.067 --> 00:10:27.703
The bible didn't say, only those who are obedient are going up.
00:10:27.703 --> 00:10:31.006
All shall be changed.
00:10:31.006 --> 00:10:32.708
Writing to believers.
00:10:32.708 --> 00:10:34.543
All believers are going up. we shall be changed.
00:10:34.543 --> 00:10:37.913
You see, you must understand one thing.
00:10:37.913 --> 00:10:39.248
The salvation of your spirit
00:10:39.248 --> 00:10:40.583
Does not depend on your obedience.
00:10:40.583 --> 00:10:42.084
It does not depend on your faithfulness, all right?
00:10:42.084 --> 00:10:44.720
What makes you think the salvation of your body
00:10:44.720 --> 00:10:46.288
Depends on your obedience?
00:10:46.288 --> 00:10:47.623
It's all part of the package jesus gave us
00:10:47.623 --> 00:10:49.525
When he died on the cross.
00:10:49.525 --> 00:10:50.960
We're just receiving our final inheritance, our body.
00:10:50.960 --> 00:10:55.531
Are you with me so far?
00:10:55.531 --> 00:10:57.266
All right, and the bible says: "the trumpet will sound,
00:10:57.266 --> 00:10:59.435
The dead will be raised incorruptible," all right?
00:10:59.435 --> 00:11:02.238
Rejoice if your loved one has gone on ahead.
00:11:02.238 --> 00:11:04.807
Don't see your loved one in the grave
00:11:04.807 --> 00:11:06.509
Or cremated or whatever somewhere.
00:11:06.509 --> 00:11:08.644
Let me tell you this, god is able to get all the power
00:11:08.644 --> 00:11:12.181
By which he subdue all things.
00:11:12.181 --> 00:11:13.516
He can get even the cells over in the ocean.
00:11:13.516 --> 00:11:17.319
He's able to get them. all atoms are not lost to god.
00:11:17.319 --> 00:11:20.189
He created atoms.
00:11:20.189 --> 00:11:21.590
He'll bring them all together in the glorious body.
00:11:21.590 --> 00:11:23.826
This is the victory over death
00:11:23.826 --> 00:11:26.762
That jesus gotten for us at the cross, amen?
00:11:26.762 --> 00:11:30.633
And the bible says we shall be changed.
00:11:30.699 --> 00:11:34.136
See, "the dead will be raised-- and we shall be changed.
00:11:34.136 --> 00:11:37.640
For this corruptible must put on incorruption,
00:11:37.640 --> 00:11:39.942
And this mortal must put on immortality."
00:11:39.942 --> 00:11:42.411
You're going to put on immortality.
00:11:42.411 --> 00:11:45.681
You know what's immortality? you'll never die again.
00:11:45.681 --> 00:11:47.349
Next verse: "so when this corruptible
00:11:47.349 --> 00:11:49.485
Has put on incorruption,
00:11:49.485 --> 00:11:51.420
And this mortal has put on immortality,
00:11:51.420 --> 00:11:54.089
Then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written:
00:11:54.089 --> 00:11:56.826
'death is swallowed up in victory,' hallelujah.
00:11:56.826 --> 00:12:00.095
That's why jesus rose from the dead bodily,
00:12:00.095 --> 00:12:03.933
To show us the victory over death, amen?
00:12:03.933 --> 00:12:06.969
And then this is what the taunting will do
00:12:06.969 --> 00:12:10.573
When we go up, amen.
00:12:10.573 --> 00:12:12.708
Those who are alive, when they go up,
00:12:12.708 --> 00:12:14.844
They'll say, "hey, death!
00:12:14.844 --> 00:12:17.012
Where is your sting?
00:12:17.012 --> 00:12:18.480
Where is your sting?"
00:12:18.480 --> 00:12:21.584
And those who are dead, they will say, "o hades."
00:12:21.584 --> 00:12:24.820
Hades is the greek word for death--sorry, hell.
00:12:24.820 --> 00:12:29.625
They will say, "o hell, what the--o hades,
00:12:29.625 --> 00:12:37.199
O hell, where is your victory?"
00:12:37.199 --> 00:12:41.103
As we are going up, amen?
00:12:41.103 --> 00:12:44.473
Now, to the world, it will happen in an atomic second.
00:12:44.473 --> 00:12:47.576
We will just disappear.
00:12:47.576 --> 00:12:48.911
But for us, it's almost like we go up in slow motion.
00:12:48.911 --> 00:12:52.548
Now, we know we are going up, not in slow motion,
00:12:52.548 --> 00:12:54.016
But we know we are going up.
00:12:54.016 --> 00:12:55.351
The challenge will come as we go up.
00:12:55.351 --> 00:12:57.319
"death, where is your victory?
00:12:57.319 --> 00:12:58.888
Hell--or death, where is your sting?
00:12:58.888 --> 00:13:00.923
Hell, where is your victory," amen?
00:13:00.923 --> 00:13:03.158
"the sting of death is sin."
00:13:03.158 --> 00:13:05.361
The reason why there's death is because of sin.
00:13:05.361 --> 00:13:08.130
"and the strength of sin is the law."
00:13:08.130 --> 00:13:11.033
And that's why i'm strong in preaching grace.
00:13:11.033 --> 00:13:14.770
Because the strength of sin is the law.
00:13:14.770 --> 00:13:16.605
This verse is hardly preached.
00:13:16.605 --> 00:13:20.509
Do you know something?
00:13:20.509 --> 00:13:21.844
I'll tell you something right now,
00:13:21.844 --> 00:13:23.412
Very interesting, is this.
00:13:23.412 --> 00:13:28.851
Do you know that in the 1 thessalonians
00:13:28.851 --> 00:13:31.086
We read just now, 1 thessalonians,
00:13:31.086 --> 00:13:32.922
This is from 1 thessalonians, right?
00:13:32.922 --> 00:13:35.324
There's a 2 thessalonians, second letter.
00:13:35.324 --> 00:13:37.559
You know the 1 thessalonians, paul talks about
00:13:37.559 --> 00:13:40.696
Faith, hope, and love.
00:13:40.696 --> 00:13:45.134
In verse 3 of chapter 1, 1 thessalonians,
00:13:45.134 --> 00:13:47.002
He says, "your work of faith, your labor of love,
00:13:47.002 --> 00:13:50.706
Your patience of hope," so faith, hope, and love.
00:13:50.706 --> 00:13:53.642
But do you know something?
00:13:53.642 --> 00:13:54.977
By the way, we know what's faith.
00:13:54.977 --> 00:13:56.312
Faith is still being taught today.
00:13:56.312 --> 00:13:57.646
We know what's love.
00:13:57.646 --> 00:13:58.981
Love has been preached, thank god.
00:13:58.981 --> 00:14:00.416
But hope, the blessed hope, is now forgotten.
00:14:00.416 --> 00:14:05.187
Are you listening, people?
00:14:05.187 --> 00:14:06.922
In other words, people are now thinking that,
00:14:06.922 --> 00:14:09.959
Oh, it's not practical to preach the second coming.
00:14:09.959 --> 00:14:11.794
You've got different views, that kind of thing.
00:14:11.794 --> 00:14:13.429
The devil has so deceived people
00:14:13.429 --> 00:14:16.498
That they are no longer preaching
00:14:16.498 --> 00:14:17.833
Something that will give them hope.
00:14:17.833 --> 00:14:20.002
Even christians, when they look forward,
00:14:20.002 --> 00:14:21.971
They don't see the blessed hope.
00:14:21.971 --> 00:14:23.305
It's called blessed hope.
00:14:23.305 --> 00:14:24.740
In the greek, happy hope.
00:14:24.740 --> 00:14:27.042
Hope is always future. faith is present.
00:14:27.042 --> 00:14:31.447
You know what happened to 2 thessalonians?
00:14:31.447 --> 00:14:33.482
2 thessalonians, the first chapter, in verse 3,
00:14:33.482 --> 00:14:37.086
Paul says, "your faith is growing exceedingly.
00:14:37.086 --> 00:14:39.955
Your love increases," but he never mentioned hope.
00:14:39.955 --> 00:14:44.326
What happened is they lost the hope.
00:14:44.326 --> 00:14:46.295
And i'll tell you what happened.
00:14:46.295 --> 00:14:47.629
The people were waiting for the rapture.
00:14:47.629 --> 00:14:49.064
They did not know when it's going to happen.
00:14:49.064 --> 00:14:50.632
And today we see people thinking, "when is it?
00:14:50.632 --> 00:14:54.136
You know, pastor prince,
00:14:54.136 --> 00:14:55.671
We've been waiting for a long time.
00:14:55.671 --> 00:14:57.006
We have been hearing about this since the longest time."
00:14:57.006 --> 00:14:58.774
One of the arguments they have today,
00:14:58.774 --> 00:15:00.275
"well, i mean, since the longest time
00:15:00.275 --> 00:15:01.610
We've been hearing the rapture,
00:15:01.610 --> 00:15:02.945
It's still not-- never happened, why?"
00:15:02.945 --> 00:15:04.279
I'll tell you why.
00:15:04.279 --> 00:15:05.614
Peter said this in the last days.
00:15:05.614 --> 00:15:08.183
2 peter: "knowing this first:
00:15:08.183 --> 00:15:09.518
That scoffers will come in the last days."
00:15:09.518 --> 00:15:11.353
Scoffers, and they will say what?
00:15:11.353 --> 00:15:13.389
"where is the promise of his coming?"
00:15:13.389 --> 00:15:15.958
Isn't that what we're hearing today?
00:15:15.958 --> 00:15:17.993
Come on, "where's the promise that's coming?
00:15:17.993 --> 00:15:19.762
Huh? another coming again preaching.
00:15:19.762 --> 00:15:22.498
What's this?"
00:15:22.498 --> 00:15:23.832
So these are scoffers.
00:15:23.832 --> 00:15:25.167
And the bible says: "so since the fathers fell asleep,
00:15:25.167 --> 00:15:27.369
All things continue as they were from the beginning of creation."
00:15:27.369 --> 00:15:30.039
That's what they say. everything is normal.
00:15:30.039 --> 00:15:32.107
You know, there's no second coming.
00:15:32.107 --> 00:15:34.043
And the bible says, drop down.
00:15:34.043 --> 00:15:36.011
"this they willfully forget:
00:15:36.011 --> 00:15:37.679
That by the word of god the heavens were of old,
00:15:37.679 --> 00:15:39.815
And the earth standing of water and in the water,
00:15:39.815 --> 00:15:41.817
By which the world then existed perished,
00:15:41.817 --> 00:15:44.386
Being flooded with water.
00:15:44.386 --> 00:15:46.021
But the heavens and the earth
00:15:46.021 --> 00:15:47.356
Which are now preserved by the same word,
00:15:47.356 --> 00:15:49.191
Are reserved for fire to the day of judgment
00:15:49.191 --> 00:15:51.326
And perdition of ungodly men."
00:15:51.326 --> 00:15:52.661
Next verse, "but, beloved," now he's writing to believers.
00:15:52.661 --> 00:15:55.964
"do not forget this one thing,
00:15:55.964 --> 00:15:57.533
That with the lord one day is a thousand years,
00:15:57.533 --> 00:16:00.269
And a thousand years as one day."
00:16:00.269 --> 00:16:03.172
To god, god doesn't live in time.
00:16:03.172 --> 00:16:04.907
God created time. we live in time, all right?
00:16:04.907 --> 00:16:08.010
God created time.
00:16:08.010 --> 00:16:09.545
Jesus died 2000 years ago.
00:16:09.545 --> 00:16:10.913
God says two days ago.
00:16:10.913 --> 00:16:12.247
So, why does it seem that god is delaying his son's coming?
00:16:12.247 --> 00:16:17.186
Okay, why?
00:16:17.186 --> 00:16:18.520
"the lord is not slack concerning his promise,
00:16:18.520 --> 00:16:20.355
As some count slackness, but is longsuffering towards us,
00:16:20.355 --> 00:16:26.028
Not willing," oh, i love this,
00:16:26.028 --> 00:16:28.230
"not willing that any should perish
00:16:28.230 --> 00:16:32.334
But that all should come to repentance."
00:16:32.334 --> 00:16:35.003
God is not willing that any should perish
00:16:35.003 --> 00:16:37.106
But that all should come to repentance.
00:16:37.106 --> 00:16:40.776
You know why he's delaying?
00:16:40.776 --> 00:16:42.377
He wants as many saved as possible.
00:16:42.377 --> 00:16:46.014
And we turn his delay into something like,
00:16:46.014 --> 00:16:48.951
"you see, you see," you know?
00:16:48.951 --> 00:16:50.619
No, all the more it confirms the love of god.
00:16:50.619 --> 00:16:53.722
You know, something happens, pastors and leaders, listen.
00:16:53.722 --> 00:16:57.693
In typology, moses can be a contrast with jesus
00:16:57.693 --> 00:17:01.730
Like law and grace, or compare.
00:17:01.730 --> 00:17:05.334
Jesus says god will raise a prophet like moses, right?
00:17:05.334 --> 00:17:09.438
In the book of acts,
00:17:09.438 --> 00:17:10.772
The apostles say that, that's jesus.
00:17:10.772 --> 00:17:12.107
So it can be also compare.
00:17:12.107 --> 00:17:13.709
Moses went up the mountain and he delayed coming down.
00:17:13.709 --> 00:17:16.445
You know what people said?
00:17:16.445 --> 00:17:17.779
Look at this, exodus 32: "when the people saw
00:17:17.779 --> 00:17:19.882
That moses delayed coming down from the mountain,
00:17:19.882 --> 00:17:23.719
The people says, 'come, let us make gods.'"
00:17:23.719 --> 00:17:26.188
You know what they made? they made a golden calf.
00:17:26.188 --> 00:17:27.723
Pastors and leaders, you know why
00:17:27.723 --> 00:17:29.057
There's no holiness and all that?
00:17:29.057 --> 00:17:30.392
It's because we're not preaching the second coming of christ.
00:17:30.392 --> 00:17:32.728
People have this attitude: "no, he's not coming back,
00:17:32.728 --> 00:17:34.997
Not in our day and age.
00:17:34.997 --> 00:17:36.331
I believe that those who preach second coming and all that,
00:17:36.331 --> 00:17:38.167
It's just confusion and it's not practical."
00:17:38.167 --> 00:17:40.202
Who told you it's not practical?
00:17:40.202 --> 00:17:42.204
In fact, jesus said about a servant
00:17:42.204 --> 00:17:43.739
That says in his heart, "my lord delays his coming."
00:17:43.739 --> 00:17:46.175
He ends up beating up menservants.
00:17:46.175 --> 00:17:47.976
Instead of walking in love, the new commandment,
00:17:47.976 --> 00:17:49.745
He's beating up his fellow men, why?
00:17:49.745 --> 00:17:52.080
Using words, using social media today
00:17:52.080 --> 00:17:54.416
To whack one another and all that, why?
00:17:54.416 --> 00:17:56.218
We have lost hope of the second coming of christ.
00:17:56.218 --> 00:17:58.353
The more you see the second coming of christ,
00:17:58.353 --> 00:17:59.821
The more you see the money
00:17:59.821 --> 00:18:01.356
And whatever god has blessed you with as tools.
00:18:01.356 --> 00:18:06.028
You learn to live life in such a way
00:18:06.028 --> 00:18:08.430
That you are focused on his coming, amen?
00:18:08.430 --> 00:18:12.134
You have hope.
00:18:12.134 --> 00:18:14.036
There's such a stability about you
00:18:14.036 --> 00:18:15.437
In a world that's going berserk, amen?
00:18:15.437 --> 00:18:19.675
Are you listening, people?
00:18:19.675 --> 00:18:21.009
Now we go to the 2 thessalonians.
00:18:21.009 --> 00:18:22.578
We'll close one passage, and this is the passage.
00:18:22.578 --> 00:18:25.480
2 thessalonians, second letter.
00:18:25.480 --> 00:18:26.882
When paul wrote to them, he talks about faith that grows,
00:18:26.882 --> 00:18:30.319
Love that's abounding, but they have lost their hope.
00:18:30.319 --> 00:18:34.890
And that's where the church is today.
00:18:34.890 --> 00:18:36.258
There's faith teaching, there's love,
00:18:36.258 --> 00:18:38.627
But we have lost the hope.
00:18:38.627 --> 00:18:40.095
And hope here is not the positive expectation
00:18:40.095 --> 00:18:42.664
Of good in your future that i preach also.
00:18:42.664 --> 00:18:44.466
I'm talking about the blessed hope of the lord.
00:18:44.466 --> 00:18:46.401
Many a times the word "hope" in the new testament
00:18:46.401 --> 00:18:48.437
Is used of the coming of the lord, all right?
00:18:48.437 --> 00:18:51.607
And he says to them, "now, brethren,
00:18:51.607 --> 00:18:52.975
Concerning the coming of our lord jesus christ
00:18:52.975 --> 00:18:55.010
And our gathering together to him, we ask you,
00:18:55.010 --> 00:18:57.646
Not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled,
00:18:57.646 --> 00:19:00.282
Either by spirit or by word or by letter,
00:19:00.282 --> 00:19:03.418
As if from us, as though the day of christ had come."
00:19:03.418 --> 00:19:06.054
What happened between the first letter
00:19:06.054 --> 00:19:07.789
And the second letter is that the people were waiting
00:19:07.789 --> 00:19:10.225
And they thought it would happen almost like the next day.
00:19:10.225 --> 00:19:12.995
It didn't happen. the next two days.
00:19:12.995 --> 00:19:14.496
But the truth, the rapture will happen.
00:19:14.496 --> 00:19:16.398
But they thought it's the next day.
00:19:16.398 --> 00:19:17.733
But jesus himself says, "no man knows the day nor the hour,"
00:19:17.733 --> 00:19:20.269
But we believe it's our generation
00:19:20.269 --> 00:19:21.603
Because we're coming really close to it.
00:19:21.603 --> 00:19:23.071
"let no one deceive you by any means;
00:19:23.071 --> 00:19:24.973
For that day will not come," the day of christ will not come.
00:19:24.973 --> 00:19:27.876
"that day" is referring to when he comes to judge the earth.
00:19:27.876 --> 00:19:31.313
It must happen after the rapture, right?
00:19:31.313 --> 00:19:34.783
So they thought it happened already
00:19:34.783 --> 00:19:36.918
And they are left behind.
00:19:36.918 --> 00:19:38.420
So he's telling them, "let no one deceive you.
00:19:38.420 --> 00:19:40.422
That day will not come
00:19:40.422 --> 00:19:41.757
Unless the falling away comes first,
00:19:41.757 --> 00:19:44.826
And the man of sin is revealed,"
00:19:44.826 --> 00:19:46.762
The antichrist, "the son of perdition,
00:19:46.762 --> 00:19:49.264
Who opposes and exalts himself
00:19:49.264 --> 00:19:50.866
Above all that is called god or that is worshiped."
00:19:50.866 --> 00:19:53.068
Now, "let no one deceive you," look at verse 3 again,
00:19:53.068 --> 00:19:55.470
"by any means; for that day will not come
00:19:55.470 --> 00:19:56.972
Unless the falling away comes first,
00:19:56.972 --> 00:19:58.540
And the man of sin is revealed."
00:19:58.540 --> 00:20:00.042
Actually, he's not very encouraging
00:20:00.042 --> 00:20:01.410
Because if you read it,
00:20:01.410 --> 00:20:02.744
He's trying to tell them not to be shaken in mind,
00:20:02.744 --> 00:20:05.213
Not to be troubled in spirit,
00:20:05.213 --> 00:20:06.815
Whether someone talks to them or send them a letter.
00:20:06.815 --> 00:20:09.651
And then he tells them, "i'll tell you this,
00:20:09.651 --> 00:20:11.286
That day of christ, when he comes to judge,
00:20:11.286 --> 00:20:12.988
Will not happen until the falling away happens first."
00:20:12.988 --> 00:20:17.326
What an ending to the church.
00:20:17.326 --> 00:20:18.860
Many of them will fall away.
00:20:18.860 --> 00:20:20.495
So some preachers love this verse
00:20:20.495 --> 00:20:21.830
Because the falling away will happen.
00:20:21.830 --> 00:20:23.465
They prophesy it. the falling away will happen.
00:20:23.465 --> 00:20:25.500
The falling--i always read this and i felt something is out.
00:20:25.500 --> 00:20:30.439
Let me show you, okay?
00:20:30.439 --> 00:20:31.907
That falling away is one word in greek, "apostasia."
00:20:31.907 --> 00:20:35.644
Apostasia in greek.
00:20:35.644 --> 00:20:37.346
Do you know the word "apostasia"
00:20:37.346 --> 00:20:38.914
Where we can get our english word?
00:20:38.914 --> 00:20:40.315
If somebody comes to church regularly
00:20:40.315 --> 00:20:42.384
And one day he doesn't come anymore,
00:20:42.384 --> 00:20:43.785
People call him an apostate.
00:20:43.785 --> 00:20:45.454
Apostate means someone who departs,
00:20:45.454 --> 00:20:47.489
Someone who left the faith.
00:20:47.489 --> 00:20:49.791
Apostasy.
00:20:49.791 --> 00:20:51.426
And here, apostasia is a greek noun.
00:20:51.426 --> 00:20:54.296
And the greek noun "apostasia"
00:20:54.296 --> 00:20:56.164
Is only used twice in the new testament.
00:20:56.164 --> 00:20:58.700
One of them is used here in acts 21.
00:20:58.700 --> 00:21:02.204
They are talking to paul saying,
00:21:02.204 --> 00:21:03.538
"they have been informed about you
00:21:03.538 --> 00:21:06.341
That you teach all the jews who are among the gentiles."
00:21:06.341 --> 00:21:08.910
James is talking to paul and saying,
00:21:08.910 --> 00:21:10.245
"you teach the jews among the gentiles to forsake moses,
00:21:10.245 --> 00:21:14.449
Saying that they ought not to circumcise your children--"
00:21:14.449 --> 00:21:16.885
And the word "forsake moses" is the word "apostasia."
00:21:16.885 --> 00:21:20.589
It's made of two greek words.
00:21:20.589 --> 00:21:21.957
Look up here. apo, a-p-o, means from.
00:21:21.957 --> 00:21:25.927
Histamine, histamine, your antihistamines.
00:21:25.927 --> 00:21:28.930
Histamine is a greek word means stand.
00:21:28.930 --> 00:21:32.334
So antihistamine to anti the stand of that infection
00:21:32.334 --> 00:21:35.437
Or whatever it is.
00:21:35.437 --> 00:21:36.772
Now the thing is that, apo means--histamine means stand,
00:21:36.772 --> 00:21:40.642
That means depart, all right, depart from.
00:21:40.642 --> 00:21:44.212
So many of us, we think that falling away from the faith
00:21:44.212 --> 00:21:46.948
Will happen first, but let's look
00:21:46.948 --> 00:21:48.650
At the word "departure."
00:21:48.650 --> 00:21:50.685
Greek scholars says the word "apostate"
00:21:50.685 --> 00:21:52.320
Can also be departure, departing.
00:21:52.320 --> 00:21:55.257
What is that? the rapture.
00:21:55.257 --> 00:21:57.793
Now, let's put the rapture here.
00:21:57.793 --> 00:21:59.127
Go back to the verse:
00:21:59.127 --> 00:22:00.462
"let no one deceive you by any means."
00:22:00.462 --> 00:22:01.830
Don't forget, paul is trying to encourage them
00:22:01.830 --> 00:22:03.732
Not to be shaken in their mind,
00:22:03.732 --> 00:22:05.066
Their spirit, their hearts, right, right?
00:22:05.066 --> 00:22:07.869
He's not going to crush them further.
00:22:07.869 --> 00:22:09.771
So let's say, he says, "let no one deceive you;
00:22:09.771 --> 00:22:11.706
For that day," of christ when he comes to judge,
00:22:11.706 --> 00:22:13.775
"will not come unless the departure happens first,"
00:22:13.775 --> 00:22:17.879
The departing happens first,
00:22:17.879 --> 00:22:19.981
"then the antichrist is revealed."
00:22:19.981 --> 00:22:21.850
We won't see the antichrist.
00:22:21.850 --> 00:22:24.119
He won't show his head until we are out of here.
00:22:24.119 --> 00:22:26.888
He cannot because we have the authority in heaven
00:22:26.888 --> 00:22:28.824
To do some things.
00:22:28.824 --> 00:22:30.158
Let me close with this, people.
00:22:30.158 --> 00:22:32.160
In the last upper room, jesus said--told his disciples this:
00:22:32.160 --> 00:22:35.197
"let not your heart be troubled;
00:22:36.164 --> 00:22:38.366
You believe in god, believe also in me."
00:22:38.366 --> 00:22:40.769
You may have loved ones that have gone on and all that.
00:22:40.769 --> 00:22:42.804
Listen, jesus said this: "let not your heart be troubled.
00:22:42.804 --> 00:22:46.274
In my father's house are many mansions."
00:22:46.274 --> 00:22:48.944
I'm glad he mentioned mansion, not huts.
00:22:48.944 --> 00:22:54.049
"if it were not so, i would have told you.
00:22:54.049 --> 00:22:55.684
I go to prepare a place for you.
00:22:55.684 --> 00:22:58.320
And if i go and prepare a place for you,"
00:22:58.320 --> 00:22:59.955
What did he say?
00:22:59.955 --> 00:23:01.289
"i will come again and receive you to myself."
00:23:01.289 --> 00:23:04.960
Now, this is not the coming to judge the earth.
00:23:04.960 --> 00:23:07.662
This is the rapture.
00:23:07.662 --> 00:23:09.064
"i'll come again and receive you to myself that where i am,
00:23:09.064 --> 00:23:15.437
There you may be also."
00:23:15.437 --> 00:23:17.739
Give him praise. praise the lord.
00:23:17.739 --> 00:23:20.275

00:23:47.869 --> 00:23:49.371
From pastor joseph prince.
00:23:49.371 --> 00:23:51.306
Joseph prince: let's all stand to our feet.
00:23:51.306 --> 00:23:53.642
I'm going to pray for this week that you will experience
00:23:53.642 --> 00:23:56.144
God's goodness, favor, and protection.
00:23:56.144 --> 00:23:59.414
Don't take these things for granted.
00:23:59.414 --> 00:24:00.782
Lift your hands.
00:24:00.782 --> 00:24:02.117
Everywhere that's watching this right now,
00:24:02.117 --> 00:24:03.451
This coming week, the lord bless you
00:24:03.451 --> 00:24:05.353
With the blessings of abraham, the blessings of deuteronomy 28.
00:24:05.353 --> 00:24:10.892
The lord make his face shine on you,
00:24:10.892 --> 00:24:13.862
Grant you favor.
00:24:13.862 --> 00:24:15.564
The lord himself keep you and your loved ones
00:24:15.564 --> 00:24:18.233
Throughout this week from every danger,
00:24:18.233 --> 00:24:20.936
From every harm, from every disease,
00:24:20.936 --> 00:24:24.339
From accident, from tragedy.
00:24:24.339 --> 00:24:27.008
The lord himself guard you from all evil.
