The History television channel and the National Geographic
00:03.336 --> 00:06.039
channel offer programs
with theories about
00:06.106 --> 00:07.540
aliens from outer space.
00:07.607 --> 00:11.845
Information regarding the
secret Area 51 military base
00:11.911 --> 00:15.548
in southern Nevada focuses
on numerous reports of UFOs
00:15.615 --> 00:18.718
or unidentified
flying objects.
00:18.785 --> 00:21.388
Many have been explained
by sightings of weather
00:21.454 --> 00:23.890
balloons or other
natural phenomenon.
00:23.957 --> 00:27.560
But there is one undeniable invader from outer space
00:27.627 --> 00:30.964
who will powerfully
transform planet Earth.
00:31.030 --> 00:33.933
False prophecies claim this
will be the Antichrist.
00:34.000 --> 00:38.405
But, in reality, this coming King will conquer all nations
00:38.471 --> 00:42.075
and institute the awesome Kingdom of God on earth.
00:42.142 --> 00:46.045
This will be the greatest
event in all history.
00:46.112 --> 00:49.749
On today's program we'll

There's no cost
or obligation.
01:08.501 --> 01:11.104
The book of Revelation
or the Apocalypse in your
01:11.171 --> 01:14.441
Bible announces this
future historic event.
01:14.507 --> 01:16.409
Revelation 11:15,
01:16.476 --> 01:20.013
"Then the seventh angel sounded: And there were loud voices
01:20.079 --> 01:23.683
in heaven, saying, "The kingdoms of this world have become the
01:23.750 --> 01:27.387
kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ, and He shall reign
01:27.454 --> 01:29.088
forever and ever!"
01:29.155 --> 01:31.925
Yes, the powerful King of
kings and Lord of lords
01:31.991 --> 01:34.661
will institute
world peace.
01:34.727 --> 01:37.564
But the nations and their
military powers will fight
01:37.630 --> 01:39.732
against this invader
from outer space.
01:39.799 --> 01:42.635
It tells us in Revelation 11:18,
01:42.702 --> 01:44.604
"The nations were angry"
01:44.671 --> 01:46.806
when this dramatic
announcement is made.
01:46.873 --> 01:49.342
They will set in motion
what is often called
01:49.409 --> 01:51.177
"the Battle of Armageddon."
01:51.244 --> 01:53.580
Who will win that war?

My friends, you need

02:05.825 --> 02:12.332
♪
02:12.398 --> 02:15.068
Warm greetings to all our
friends around the world.
02:15.134 --> 02:18.338
Regular viewers of Tomorrow's World know that we look forward
02:18.404 --> 02:22.108
to the prophesied time of
world peace for all nations.
02:22.175 --> 02:26.346
But they also know the reality of world history and world wars.
02:26.412 --> 02:30.183
Popular movies reflect the
expectation that we will
02:30.250 --> 02:33.720
soon experience the end of
the world, by nuclear war,
02:33.786 --> 02:36.723
natural disasters,
and other means.
02:36.789 --> 02:38.591
You have probably
seen movies such as
02:38.658 --> 02:42.729
"Armageddon," "Deep Impact,"
and "The Day After Tomorrow."
02:42.795 --> 02:45.398
The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists has set the
02:45.465 --> 02:48.968
Doomsday Clock at
90 seconds before midnight.
02:49.035 --> 02:52.272
They stated on
January 23, 2024,
02:52.338 --> 02:55.408
"Ominous trends continue
to point the world toward
02:55.475 --> 02:57.510
global catastrophe.
02:57.577 --> 03:01.114
The war in Ukraine and the widespread and growing reliance
03:01.180 --> 03:05.184
on nuclear weapons increase the risk of nuclear escalation.
03:05.251 --> 03:07.954
China, Russia, and the
United States are all
03:08.021 --> 03:11.658
spending huge sums to
expand or modernize their
03:11.724 --> 03:14.961
nuclear arsenals, adding
to the ever-present danger
03:15.028 --> 03:19.766
of nuclear war through
mistake or miscalculation."
03:19.832 --> 03:23.169
The Sentinel Newspapers gave this chilling summary:
03:23.236 --> 03:26.940
"The 'Doomsday Clock' of The Bulletin of the Atomic
03:27.006 --> 03:30.977
Scientists was kept at 90 seconds to midnight this week--
03:31.044 --> 03:34.213
the closest to midnight
that the clock has been set
03:34.280 --> 03:37.450
since it was created in 1947.
03:37.517 --> 03:39.953
Midnight is defined
by The Bulletin as
03:40.019 --> 03:43.056
'nuclear annihilation.'"
03:43.122 --> 03:46.259
Bible prophecy also
affirms the prospect of
03:46.326 --> 03:48.027
"global catastrophe."
03:48.094 --> 03:51.064
Matthew 24:21-22,
03:51.130 --> 03:54.601
"For then there will be great
tribulation, such as has not
03:54.667 --> 03:57.670
been since the beginning of
the world until this time,
03:57.737 --> 03:59.672
no, nor ever shall be.
03:59.739 --> 04:03.009
And unless those days were
shortened, no flesh would be
04:03.076 --> 04:07.080
saved; but for the elect's sake those days will be shortened."
04:07.146 --> 04:11.117
Do you understand and accept the reality of potential cosmocide,
04:11.184 --> 04:14.988
including the prospect of "nuclear annihilation"?
04:15.054 --> 04:17.624
Who will save us from
total extinction?
04:17.690 --> 04:22.795
Just look down the page to verse 29 in Matthew the 24th chapter.
04:22.862 --> 04:25.865
Your Bible may have the
heading titled "The Coming
04:25.932 --> 04:27.367
of the Son of Man."
04:27.433 --> 04:31.237
Yes, the Messiah, Jesus Christ, will come to save the world.
04:31.304 --> 04:33.272
Matthew 24:29,
04:33.339 --> 04:36.576
"Immediately after the tribulation of those days the
04:36.643 --> 04:39.646
sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light;
04:39.712 --> 04:42.615
the stars will fall from
heaven, and the powers of
04:42.682 --> 04:44.384
the heavens will be shaken.
04:44.450 --> 04:47.420
Then the sign of the Son of
Man will appear in heaven,
04:47.487 --> 04:50.256
and then all the tribes
of the earth will mourn,
04:50.323 --> 04:53.092
and they will see the Son
of Man coming on the clouds
04:53.159 --> 04:55.662
of heaven with power
and great glory.
04:55.728 --> 04:59.565
And He will send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet,
04:59.632 --> 05:03.036
and they will gather together His elect from the four winds,
05:03.102 --> 05:06.105
from one end of heaven
to the other."
05:06.172 --> 05:09.942
Yes, the Messiah, Jesus Christ will return to this earth with
05:10.009 --> 05:12.745
"power and great glory"
as we just read.
05:12.812 --> 05:16.616
His return is signaled by "a great sound of a trumpet."
05:16.683 --> 05:19.719
That will be the "last
trumpet" also signaling
05:19.786 --> 05:23.322
the resurrection of the saints, genuine Christians, mentioned
05:23.389 --> 05:26.592
in 1 Corinthians 15:52.
05:26.659 --> 05:30.596
So, what sequence of prophetic events do you need to watch for?
05:30.663 --> 05:31.731
Let's understand.
05:31.798 --> 05:34.367
There are three prophetic milestones leading up
05:34.434 --> 05:35.768
to Christ's return.
05:35.835 --> 05:38.337
They are:
1. The Great Tribulation;
05:38.404 --> 05:42.341
2. The Heavenly Signs; and
3. The Day of the Lord.
05:42.408 --> 05:44.977
These three events cover
a period of about three
05:45.044 --> 05:46.379
and one-half years.
05:46.446 --> 05:49.315
There are over thirty
prophecies in your Bible
05:49.382 --> 05:51.317
referring to the
Day of the Lord.
05:51.384 --> 05:56.789
Isaiah 34:8 and Isaiah 63:4
show that the Day of the Lord
05:56.856 --> 06:00.526
in end-time prophecy, the time preceding the Second Coming,
06:00.593 --> 06:02.929
is a period of one year.
06:02.995 --> 06:05.331
You might want to write
down those references:
06:05.398 --> 06:09.669
Isaiah 34:8 and
Isaiah 63:4.
06:09.736 --> 06:12.572
The book of Revelation
describes these events
06:12.638 --> 06:15.641
symbolically in the form
of seals and trumpets.
06:15.708 --> 06:18.277
The first five seals of Revelation, outlined in
06:18.344 --> 06:21.681
chapter six, include the
Great Tribulation Jesus
06:21.748 --> 06:23.750
spoke about in Matthew 24.
06:23.816 --> 06:26.686
The sixth seal is
the heavenly signs.
06:26.753 --> 06:30.923
The whole world will be put on notice when this event occurs.
06:30.990 --> 06:35.228
Let's read that in
Revelation 6:12...
06:35.294 --> 06:38.331
"I looked when He opened
the sixth seal, and behold,
06:38.397 --> 06:41.267
there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as
06:41.334 --> 06:44.537
sackcloth of hair, and the
moon became like blood.
06:44.604 --> 06:47.740
And the stars of heaven fell
to the earth, as a fig tree
06:47.807 --> 06:51.144
drops its late figs when it
is shaken by a mighty wind.
06:51.210 --> 06:55.014
Then the sky receded as a
scroll when it is rolled up,
06:55.081 --> 06:58.951
[Listen to this] and every mountain and island was
06:59.018 --> 07:00.686
moved out of its place."
07:00.753 --> 07:04.390
The March 2024 Astronomy magazine features this
07:04.457 --> 07:07.693
cover headline:
"Cosmic Catastrophes:
07:07.760 --> 07:12.431
How the Universe threatens
life on earth," page 18,
07:12.498 --> 07:16.235
"The Universe is a terrifying place, filled with existential
07:16.302 --> 07:19.505
threats... Earth may seem
quite solid beneath our feet,
07:19.572 --> 07:23.676
but the continued existence of
the thin layers of rock, water,
07:23.743 --> 07:27.513
and air that sustain us
is in no way guaranteed.
07:27.580 --> 07:30.950
Errant asteroids, soaring
superflares, and exploding
07:31.017 --> 07:34.487
supernovae are just a few of the calamities that might
07:34.554 --> 07:36.556
befall our fragile world.
07:36.622 --> 07:39.158
In the short term, we
may be able to manage
07:39.225 --> 07:42.028
or mitigate some of
these threats.
07:42.094 --> 07:45.031
Asteroids can be diverted
and power grids hardened.
07:45.097 --> 07:49.068
But other apocalypses are
inevitable as the solar
07:49.135 --> 07:52.772
system ages: a runaway
Moon, Earth's collapsing
07:52.839 --> 07:55.875
magnetosphere, the
Sun's flagging heart.
07:55.942 --> 07:58.878
Each one represents a
countdown to a different
07:58.945 --> 08:02.748
apocalypse, with some more
imminent than others."
08:02.815 --> 08:06.652
Such heavenly signs, or cosmic disturbances as they are called,
08:06.719 --> 08:09.155
will introduce the
Day of the Lord.
08:09.222 --> 08:12.425
The Day of the Lord is the coming time of God's wrath and
08:12.491 --> 08:15.695
judgment on an unthankful, rebellious world.
08:15.761 --> 08:20.132
Jesus Christ, the Lamb
of God, will be wrathful.
08:20.199 --> 08:22.501
He'll execute God's
righteous judgments.
08:22.568 --> 08:26.072
The Day of the Lord, here
in Revelation 6:17,
08:26.138 --> 08:28.908
is called "the great
Day of His wrath."
08:28.975 --> 08:33.012
The Day of the Lord will bring God's judgments on the nations.
08:33.079 --> 08:35.414
The Day of the Lord
climaxes with the 7th
08:35.481 --> 08:38.951
Trumpet announcement
in Revelation 11:15,
08:39.018 --> 08:42.021
"Then the seventh angel
sounded: And there were
08:42.088 --> 08:44.924
loud voices in heaven,
saying, "The kingdoms of
08:44.991 --> 08:47.560
this world have become the
kingdoms of our Lord and
08:47.627 --> 08:51.297
of His Christ, and He shall reign forever and ever!"
08:51.364 --> 08:54.934
That announcement, my friends, introduces the greatest event
08:55.001 --> 08:56.502
in all history.
08:56.569 --> 08:58.838

dangers the world faces, including nuclear war and
11:01.994 --> 11:03.996
destruction from asteroids.

11:51.377 --> 11:55.314
"Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit
11:55.381 --> 11:59.318
the kingdom of God; nor does corruption inherit incorruption.
11:59.385 --> 12:02.721
Behold, I tell you a mystery:
We shall not all sleep,
12:02.788 --> 12:05.925
but we shall all be changed--
in a moment, in the twinkling
12:05.991 --> 12:09.862
of an eye, [when?]
at the last trumpet.
12:09.929 --> 12:12.164
For the trumpet will
sound, and the dead will
12:12.231 --> 12:15.935
be raised incorruptible,
and we shall be changed.
12:16.001 --> 12:18.571
For this corruptible must
put on incorruption,
12:18.637 --> 12:21.607
and this mortal must
put on immortality.
12:21.674 --> 12:24.543
So when this corruptible
has put on incorruption,
12:24.610 --> 12:26.812
and this mortal has
put on immortality,
12:26.879 --> 12:29.748
then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written:
12:29.815 --> 12:32.184
'Death is swallowed
up in victory.'"
12:32.251 --> 12:35.588
Genuine Christians who are alive at that time will have been
12:35.654 --> 12:38.424
protected through three and
one-half years here on earth
12:38.491 --> 12:42.795
in the "wilderness" as it tells us in Revelation 12:14.
12:42.862 --> 12:45.865
Those faithful Christians who are alive will join the
12:45.931 --> 12:49.301
faithful saints who died, starting with faithful Abel
12:49.368 --> 12:53.572
mentioned in Hebrews 11:4,
as well as the patriarchs,
12:53.639 --> 12:55.941
apostles, and prophets.
12:56.008 --> 12:58.010
The resurrected saints
will join Christ on the
12:58.077 --> 13:00.846
sea of glass in heaven for
the marriage of the Lamb.
13:00.913 --> 13:03.916
The Apostle John sees them
in vision as you read in
13:03.983 --> 13:05.918
Revelation 15:2.
13:05.985 --> 13:08.721
Christians are admonished
to prepare for that awesome
13:08.787 --> 13:12.391
wedding in the Parable of the Ten Virgins in Matthew 25.
13:12.458 --> 13:16.896
We read the inspiring
announcement in Revelation 19:6,
13:16.962 --> 13:19.331
"And I heard, as it were,
the voice of a great
13:19.398 --> 13:22.768
multitude, as the sound
of many waters and as
13:22.835 --> 13:24.703
the sound of mighty
thunderings, saying,
13:24.770 --> 13:28.574
'Alleluia! For the Lord God
Omnipotent reigns!
13:28.641 --> 13:32.178
Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory, for the marriage
13:32.244 --> 13:36.448
of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready.'
13:36.515 --> 13:39.451
And to her it was granted to
be arrayed in fine linen,
13:39.518 --> 13:42.755
clean and bright, for the fine linen is the righteous acts
13:42.821 --> 13:44.223
of the saints."
13:44.290 --> 13:46.792
The glorified saints will
dwell with Christ and
13:46.859 --> 13:49.094
God the Father for the
nine-day period between
13:49.161 --> 13:51.764
the Feast of Trumpets and
the Day of Atonement, then
13:51.830 --> 13:55.367
return to earth with the
King of Kings to conquer
13:55.434 --> 13:58.704
the nations and establish
the Kingdom of God on earth.
13:58.771 --> 14:02.174
Revelation the 19th chapter describes Christ's powerful
14:02.241 --> 14:04.677
return to earth with the saints.
14:04.743 --> 14:08.881
The Apostle John writes
in Revelation 19:11,
14:08.948 --> 14:13.118
"Now I saw heaven opened,
and behold, a white horse.
14:13.185 --> 14:16.355
And He who sat on him was
called Faithful and True,
14:16.422 --> 14:19.124
and in righteousness He
judges and makes war."
14:19.191 --> 14:23.028
Yes, the conquering King will vanquish the combined military
14:23.095 --> 14:26.098
power of all the nations that have turned from fighting
14:26.165 --> 14:29.902
themselves, to fighting this invader from outer space.
14:29.969 --> 14:31.103
Verse 14,
14:31.170 --> 14:34.073
"And the armies in heaven, clothed in fine linen,
14:34.139 --> 14:36.875
white and clean, followed
Him on white horses.
14:36.942 --> 14:40.446
Now out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it
14:40.512 --> 14:42.214
He should strike the nations.
14:42.281 --> 14:45.417
And He Himself will rule
them with a rod of iron.
14:45.484 --> 14:47.519
He Himself treads
the winepress of the
14:47.586 --> 14:50.322
fierceness and wrath
of Almighty God."
14:50.389 --> 14:53.359
Remember we read earlier
that the year-long Day
14:53.425 --> 14:56.128
of the Lord will be the
time of God's judgment
14:56.195 --> 14:57.896
on our rebellious nations.
14:57.963 --> 15:01.400
As it states in
Revelation 6:17,
15:01.467 --> 15:03.535
"For the great day of
is wrath has come,
15:03.602 --> 15:05.938
and who is able to stand?"
15:06.005 --> 15:10.209
Continuing in Revelation 19,
we see confirmed the glorious
15:10.276 --> 15:13.846
ruling authority of the coming ruler of planet Earth:
15:13.912 --> 15:17.249
"And He has on His robe and
on His thigh a name written:
15:17.316 --> 15:19.451
KING OF KINGS AND
LORD OF LORDS".
15:19.518 --> 15:20.886
That's verse 16.
15:20.953 --> 15:23.322
He is the conquering King.
15:23.389 --> 15:26.258
Yes, "Who is able to stand?"
15:26.325 --> 15:29.061
Who will fight against
Christ at His coming?
15:29.128 --> 15:32.331
Revelation 17 gives
us more details.
15:32.398 --> 15:36.235
The revived Roman Empire with its ten kings or kingdoms will
15:36.302 --> 15:39.972
use all its military strength
to resist the conquering King.
15:40.039 --> 15:42.074
Revelation 17:12,
15:42.141 --> 15:45.377
"The ten horns which you
saw are ten kings who have
15:45.444 --> 15:48.247
received no kingdom as
yet, but they receive
15:48.314 --> 15:51.016
authority for one hour
as kings with the beast.
15:51.083 --> 15:54.086
These are of one mind, and
they will give their power
15:54.153 --> 15:55.754
and authority to the beast.
15:55.821 --> 15:59.892
These will make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb will overcome
15:59.958 --> 16:03.629
them, for He is Lord of lords and King of kings; and those
16:03.696 --> 16:08.334
who are with Him are called, chosen, and faithful."
16:08.400 --> 16:11.637
Yes, the Lamb, Jesus Christ
will overcome them,
16:11.704 --> 16:12.971
He will conquer them.
16:13.038 --> 16:15.307
And who will be
with our Savior?
16:15.374 --> 16:18.444
"The armies in heaven"
we just read about
16:18.510 --> 16:21.513
in Revelation 19:14
will be with Him.
16:21.580 --> 16:25.684
Those who are called,
chosen, and faithful.
16:25.751 --> 16:28.654
That may include you, my friends, if you become
16:28.721 --> 16:31.590

these dramatic events,
16:34.259 --> 16:37.363
some of which are building

18:04.817 --> 18:06.985
We've seen that the
conquering King will
18:07.052 --> 18:09.421
come for the saints
at the last trumpet.
18:09.488 --> 18:12.758
The saints, resurrected
to immortality, will
18:12.825 --> 18:14.793
join Christ in the
heavenly wedding.
18:14.860 --> 18:18.063
And we've seen that they will come back to earth with Him
18:18.130 --> 18:21.266
to defeat His enemies at
the battle of Armageddon.
18:21.333 --> 18:23.902
The resurrected saints
will rule in the Kingdom
18:23.969 --> 18:27.139
as kings and priests here
on the earth, as we read in
18:27.206 --> 18:30.442
"The song of the saints": Revelation 5:10,
18:30.509 --> 18:33.078
"And have made us kings
and priests to our God;
18:33.145 --> 18:35.714
And we shall reign
on the earth."
18:35.781 --> 18:38.650
Will you be one of those
resurrected Christians?
18:38.717 --> 18:43.055
My friends, we need to urgently prepare for the coming Kingdom.
18:43.121 --> 18:44.890
How should we prepare?
18:44.957 --> 18:48.994
First, we need to fervently
pray for the Kingdom to come.
18:49.061 --> 18:51.897
Jesus gave us the model
prayer in Matthew 6.
18:51.964 --> 18:53.131
He taught us to pray:
18:53.198 --> 18:56.235
"Our Father in heaven,
Hallowed be Your name.
18:56.301 --> 18:58.770
Your kingdom come."
18:58.837 --> 19:01.740
That's Matthew 6:9-10.
19:01.807 --> 19:04.376
My friends, if God's
Kingdom does not come,
19:04.443 --> 19:07.446
there will be no
life left on earth.
19:07.513 --> 19:10.649
As Jesus said in
Matthew 24:22,
19:10.716 --> 19:13.585
"And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be
19:13.652 --> 19:17.656
saved; but for the elect's sake those days will be shortened."
19:17.723 --> 19:20.259
And we also sigh and cry
for the abominations
19:20.325 --> 19:22.461
flooding our cities
and the world.
19:22.528 --> 19:25.998
The prophet Ezekiel reveals
just who will be spared from
19:26.064 --> 19:27.533
the Great Tribulation.
19:27.599 --> 19:32.404
God will spare those who will not join our wicked world.
19:32.471 --> 19:35.140
God will protect those
who cry and sigh for
19:35.207 --> 19:37.609
the evils and wickedness
in our countries.
19:37.676 --> 19:42.047
He tells an angelic being to put a mark on them for protection.
19:42.114 --> 19:44.116
Ezekiel 9:4,
19:44.182 --> 19:46.985
"Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of
19:47.052 --> 19:49.821
Jerusalem, and put a mark on
the foreheads of the men who
19:49.888 --> 19:52.324
sigh and cry over all the abominations that are
19:52.391 --> 19:54.326
done within it."
19:54.393 --> 19:57.029
All the wicked and their
families are destroyed,
19:57.095 --> 19:58.964
but God tells His servant:
19:59.031 --> 20:02.801
"[D]o not come near anyone
on whom is the mark;
20:02.868 --> 20:04.536
and begin at My sanctuary."
20:04.603 --> 20:05.904
That's verse 6.
20:05.971 --> 20:10.475
Do you cry and sigh for all the abominations in your country?
20:10.542 --> 20:13.512
Tomorrow's World is striving to fulfill God's instructions
20:13.579 --> 20:16.014
of Isaiah 58:1,
20:16.081 --> 20:19.751
"Cry aloud, spare not; Lift up your voice like a trumpet;
20:19.818 --> 20:21.753
Tell My people their transgression, and the
20:21.820 --> 20:23.655
house of Jacob their sins."

We all need to seek God's
Kingdom and God's way of
20:41.073 --> 20:43.775
life and do what is
good and righteous.
20:43.842 --> 20:45.811
Jesus told us to:
20:45.877 --> 20:49.014
"[S]eek first the kingdom of
God and His righteousness,
20:49.081 --> 20:51.416
and all these things shall
be added to you."
20:51.483 --> 20:53.852
That's Matthew 6:33.
20:53.919 --> 20:56.021
What else must you do to
prepare for the coming
20:56.088 --> 20:59.524
Kingdom of God and the coming
of the conquering King?
20:59.591 --> 21:03.462
What did Jesus tell us servants
to do, several times?
21:03.528 --> 21:05.864
He concluded the parable
of the ten virgins with
21:05.931 --> 21:07.199
this admonition:
21:07.265 --> 21:09.935
"Watch therefore, for you
know neither the day nor
21:10.002 --> 21:11.970
the hour in which the
Son of Man is coming."
21:12.037 --> 21:14.473
Matthew 25:13.
21:14.539 --> 21:20.345
Luke 21:34 also emphasizes
"The Importance of Watching:"
21:20.412 --> 21:23.548
"But take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be weighed
21:23.615 --> 21:26.284
down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares
21:26.351 --> 21:29.921
of this life, and that Day
come on you unexpectedly.
21:29.988 --> 21:32.090
For it will come as a
snare on all those who
21:32.157 --> 21:34.292
dwell on the face
of the whole earth.
21:34.359 --> 21:38.363
Watch therefore, and pray
always that you may be
21:38.430 --> 21:40.866
counted worthy to escape
all these things that will
21:40.932 --> 21:44.503
come to pass, and to stand
before the Son of Man."
21:44.569 --> 21:46.405
What should you watch for?
21:46.471 --> 21:49.808
We've already mentioned
key prophetic milestones.
21:49.875 --> 21:53.545
Our free study guide gives
fourteen signs to watch for.
21:53.612 --> 21:58.917
Be sure to request your free copy at TWTV.ORG/SIGNS.
21:58.984 --> 22:01.953
What specific signs should
you be watching for?
22:02.020 --> 22:05.524
In AD 70, the Jerusalem church escaped the Roman capture
22:05.590 --> 22:08.060
and desolation of the city.
22:08.126 --> 22:12.330
They followed Christ's
instructions in Matthew 24:15,
22:12.397 --> 22:15.167
"Therefore when you see the 'abomination of desolation,'
22:15.233 --> 22:18.503
spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place"
22:18.570 --> 22:21.339
(whoever reads, let him understand), then let
22:21.406 --> 22:24.576
those who are in Judea
flee to the mountains."
22:24.643 --> 22:28.213
We need to watch for an end- time Abomination of Desolation.
22:28.280 --> 22:31.216
The Apostle Paul warns of
a great false prophet
22:31.283 --> 22:33.085
who will stand in
the holy place.
22:33.151 --> 22:36.088
Let's read that in
2 Thessalonians 2.
22:36.154 --> 22:39.891
In 2 Thessalonians 2:3,
the Apostle Paul writes,
22:39.958 --> 22:43.729
"Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not
22:43.795 --> 22:46.932
come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin
22:46.998 --> 22:50.035
is revealed, the son of perdition, who opposes and
22:50.102 --> 22:53.739
exalts himself above all that
is called God or that is
22:53.805 --> 22:57.709
worshiped, so that he sits
as God in the temple of God,
22:57.776 --> 23:00.479
showing himself that he is God."
23:00.545 --> 23:03.115
This end-time false
prophet will cause
23:03.181 --> 23:06.418
the future animal
sacrifices to cease.
23:06.485 --> 23:09.621
Let's realize that the
Jews have not offered
23:09.688 --> 23:13.058
animal sacrifices since
AD 70 when the Romans
23:13.125 --> 23:15.961
destroyed the Second
Temple in Jerusalem.
23:16.027 --> 23:18.730
And for the end-time
sacrifices to be
23:18.797 --> 23:22.200
stopped eventually,
they need to begin.
23:22.267 --> 23:24.870
My friends, you need to
know the signs announcing
23:24.936 --> 23:26.605
Christ's return.

25:20.785 --> 25:24.556
On today's program, we've seen the awesome power that Jesus
25:24.623 --> 25:27.959
Christ will pour out upon
the rebellious nations that
25:28.026 --> 25:29.628
fight Him at His coming.
25:29.694 --> 25:33.865
As we read in Matthew 24:30, Jesus Christ will return
25:33.932 --> 25:36.635
to this earth with
"power and great glory."
25:36.701 --> 25:39.404
You need to prepare
for that great event.
25:39.471 --> 25:43.341
We cited one major sign to
watch for: the end-time
25:43.408 --> 25:46.111
Abomination of Desolation
Jesus warned us about
25:46.177 --> 25:48.580
in Matthew 24:15.
25:48.647 --> 25:51.650
The prophet Daniel also tells
us this sign will occur
25:51.716 --> 25:55.887
just 1,290 days before
Christ's Second Coming.
25:55.954 --> 25:57.722
Daniel 12:11,
25:57.789 --> 26:01.192
"And from the time that the daily sacrifice is taken away,
26:01.259 --> 26:03.495
and the abomination of desolation is set up,
26:03.561 --> 26:07.599
there shall be one thousand
two hundred and ninety days."
26:07.666 --> 26:12.270
Watch for animal sacrifices offered once again in Jerusalem.
26:12.337 --> 26:15.573
When that happens, you
will know we are entering
26:15.640 --> 26:19.277
the last phase leading up
to the return of Christ.
26:19.344 --> 26:22.447
To summarize, watch
for Sign Number One:
26:22.514 --> 26:25.417
Watch for the offering of
animal sacrifices once
26:25.483 --> 26:27.018
again in Jerusalem.
26:27.085 --> 26:28.386
And Number Two:
26:28.453 --> 26:32.557
The Abomination of Desolation
to be set up in the holy place.
26:32.624 --> 26:35.226
The greatest event
in world history is
26:35.293 --> 26:37.228
prophesied to come soon.
26:37.295 --> 26:39.497
Jesus Christ will come
to save our world
26:39.564 --> 26:42.100
from cosmocide and
total oblivion.
26:42.167 --> 26:46.004
He's called us to prepare for the Kingdom, to pray for
26:46.071 --> 26:49.975
the Kingdom, and watch the prophetic signs of the times.
26:50.041 --> 26:52.410
You need to know those
prophetic signs your
