00:00:01.170 --> 00:00:03.870
This program is made
possible by the giving
2
00:00:03.870 --> 00:00:07.920
of the God called partners
of Renner Ministries.
3
00:00:07.920 --> 00:00:11.160
Get ready for a teaching
that feeds your spirit
4
00:00:11.160 --> 00:00:14.730
and your mind, where the word is the anchor in
5
00:00:14.730 --> 00:00:16.710
uncertain times
6
00:00:16.710 --> 00:00:20.010
and doctrine doesn't bend to culture.
7
00:00:20.010 --> 00:00:21.420
We keep it simple,
8
00:00:21.420 --> 00:00:26.010
but dive deep revealing a
truth that strengthens us,
9
00:00:26.880 --> 00:00:28.500
a love that emboldens,
10
00:00:29.910 --> 00:00:32.070
and a mission that touches the world.
11
00:00:34.410 --> 00:00:35.940
Let's join Rick Renner.
12
00:00:38.430 --> 00:00:40.170
Welcome to today's program, my friend,
13
00:00:40.170 --> 00:00:43.110
it is already the end of the week.
14
00:00:43.110 --> 00:00:45.180
It seems like this week
just went like that,
15
00:00:45.180 --> 00:00:48.360
but that's what happens
when you're having fun.
16
00:00:48.360 --> 00:00:52.080
And I've been having
such a good time with you
17
00:00:52.080 --> 00:00:53.940
as we've been discussing this subject.
18
00:00:53.940 --> 00:00:57.330
How Close Are We to The End?
19
00:00:57.330 --> 00:00:59.850
People really ask that question.
20
00:00:59.850 --> 00:01:02.250
Maybe you've been asking that question.
21
00:01:02.250 --> 00:01:04.230
How close are we to the end?
22
00:01:04.230 --> 00:01:08.460
This 10 part series is
so rich and so packed,
23
00:01:08.460 --> 00:01:11.250
and it comes with a wonderful study guide
24
00:01:11.250 --> 00:01:13.860
that has all the material
in the study guide
25
00:01:13.860 --> 00:01:15.210
because I really believe,
26
00:01:15.210 --> 00:01:16.710
and it's scientifically proven,
27
00:01:16.710 --> 00:01:19.170
that when you read the
material while you're seeing
28
00:01:19.170 --> 00:01:21.300
or hearing it, it really
gets the material deeper
29
00:01:21.300 --> 00:01:22.710
down inside you.
30
00:01:22.710 --> 00:01:25.200
And of course, I'm really thrilled about my book, Signs
31
00:01:25.200 --> 00:01:26.430
You'll See Just
32
00:01:26.430 --> 00:01:29.550
Before Jesus Comes, where we really go through all the signs
33
00:01:29.550 --> 00:01:33.720
Jesus enumerated, that would be indicative that we've sailed
34
00:01:33.720 --> 00:01:35.400
to the end of the age.
35
00:01:35.400 --> 00:01:39.840
And right now for free, for everyone who calls us
36
00:01:39.840 --> 00:01:44.640
or goes online, we want to give you an End-Times Timeline.
37
00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:46.650
My friends, it is just wonderful
38
00:01:46.650 --> 00:01:49.620
and we designed it especially for you
39
00:01:49.620 --> 00:01:52.770
because we want you to know prophecies
40
00:01:52.770 --> 00:01:55.350
that are already fulfilled, prophecies
41
00:01:55.350 --> 00:01:58.140
that are being fulfilled,
prophecies that are
42
00:01:58.140 --> 00:01:59.640
yet to be fulfilled.
43
00:01:59.640 --> 00:02:02.580
We want you to be able to
see right in front of you
44
00:02:02.580 --> 00:02:06.720
where we are in time, and
this is our gift to you.
45
00:02:06.720 --> 00:02:08.970
And you can get yours by going online
46
00:02:08.970 --> 00:02:10.110
and just downloading it.
47
00:02:10.110 --> 00:02:12.810
Or if you want a hard copy, call us
48
00:02:12.810 --> 00:02:15.690
and we will get one in the mail to you.
49
00:02:15.690 --> 00:02:18.930
And please, when you reach out
to us, would you let us know
50
00:02:18.930 --> 00:02:20.520
how to pray for you.
51
00:02:20.520 --> 00:02:22.980
We believe in prayer.
We are praying people.
52
00:02:22.980 --> 00:02:24.960
And if you've ever called us for prayer,
53
00:02:24.960 --> 00:02:29.250
you know you don't get
away from us without really
54
00:02:29.250 --> 00:02:30.780
being prayed for.
55
00:02:30.780 --> 00:02:33.750
And we believe 1 John 5:14
56
00:02:33.750 --> 00:02:37.680
and 15, it says that if we pray anything according
57
00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:41.820
to God's will, God's will is his word.
58
00:02:41.820 --> 00:02:43.800
That's what his will is.
59
00:02:43.800 --> 00:02:46.950
And when we pray for you,
we will pray scripturally.
60
00:02:46.950 --> 00:02:49.710
And when you pray scripturally, it opens the ears of God.
61
00:02:49.710 --> 00:02:51.480
God says, oh, there's my word.
62
00:02:52.410 --> 00:02:55.170
And the Bible says, we
know that if he hears us,
63
00:02:55.170 --> 00:02:58.500
we have the petitions
that we request of him.
64
00:02:58.500 --> 00:03:01.810
So we will pray for you,
scripturally, biblically,
65
00:03:01.810 --> 00:03:03.880
and Jesus will do what needs to be done.
66
00:03:03.880 --> 00:03:05.440
But just call the number on the screen
67
00:03:05.440 --> 00:03:08.560
and please would you write
that number down and save it.
68
00:03:08.560 --> 00:03:11.020
And that way the next
time you're in a fix,
69
00:03:11.020 --> 00:03:12.850
if you need somebody to pray with you,
70
00:03:12.850 --> 00:03:14.560
you have a number that you can call.
71
00:03:14.560 --> 00:03:17.680
And friend, I promise
you we're confidential
72
00:03:17.680 --> 00:03:21.640
and we will really pray sincerely for you.
73
00:03:21.640 --> 00:03:24.790
But hey, I want you to
reach for your Bible
74
00:03:24.790 --> 00:03:27.550
and we're going to continue
to our subject about
75
00:03:27.550 --> 00:03:31.030
how close are we to the end of the age.
76
00:03:31.030 --> 00:03:34.990
And we're gonna go back to Matthew 24:3,
77
00:03:34.990 --> 00:03:38.530
which really is the foundational verse for this series.
78
00:03:38.530 --> 00:03:41.770
And in Matthew 24:3,
79
00:03:41.770 --> 00:03:45.190
Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, which is
80
00:03:45.190 --> 00:03:48.010
so beautiful, and from the Mount of Olives,
81
00:03:48.010 --> 00:03:50.290
you can look across the Kidron Valley.
82
00:03:50.290 --> 00:03:54.040
And there in the distance is
the beautiful temple mount.
83
00:03:54.040 --> 00:03:58.840
It is such a panoramic, prophetic view. It is just amazing.
84
00:03:58.840 --> 00:04:01.510
And Jesus and his disciples were sitting
85
00:04:01.510 --> 00:04:03.220
with that behind them.
86
00:04:03.220 --> 00:04:05.290
And the Bible tells us in verse 3:
87
00:04:05.290 --> 00:04:07.540
And as he sat upon the Mount of Olives,
88
00:04:07.540 --> 00:04:11.560
the disciples came unto him privately saying - Tell
89
00:04:12.700 --> 00:04:16.690
us when shall these things be?
90
00:04:16.690 --> 00:04:19.690
What shall be the sign of thy coming
91
00:04:19.690 --> 00:04:22.780
and of the end of the age?
92
00:04:22.780 --> 00:04:23.830
And we've seen over
93
00:04:23.830 --> 00:04:25.960
and over that in these verses,
94
00:04:25.960 --> 00:04:28.660
the disciples were speaking
about things which were very
95
00:04:28.660 --> 00:04:32.080
indicative of that time. At that particular moment,
96
00:04:32.080 --> 00:04:35.020
there was a lot of talk about the end of the age
97
00:04:35.020 --> 00:04:37.630
and things having to do with eschatology.
98
00:04:37.630 --> 00:04:40.780
The people of God in
Israel were really fixated
99
00:04:40.780 --> 00:04:42.760
and really focused on the end
100
00:04:42.760 --> 00:04:45.970
of the age just like people are today.
101
00:04:45.970 --> 00:04:48.610
And once again, we're getting
ready for the coming of Jesus
102
00:04:48.610 --> 00:04:50.590
and God's people are asking, Lord,
103
00:04:50.590 --> 00:04:52.660
when are these things going to be?
104
00:04:52.660 --> 00:04:55.480
What is the sign of thy coming at the end of the age?
105
00:04:55.480 --> 00:05:00.480
People are nearly asking the
same identical questions.
106
00:05:00.820 --> 00:05:02.200
And we've already seen
107
00:05:02.200 --> 00:05:04.990
that Jesus gave them a list of answers.
108
00:05:04.990 --> 00:05:07.810
They asked for a one sign, but
109
00:05:07.810 --> 00:05:09.550
because they came to Jesus privately
110
00:05:09.550 --> 00:05:13.750
and nobody else was there,
Jesus gave them the one sign,
111
00:05:13.750 --> 00:05:17.590
the foremost sign, which
was worldwide deception.
112
00:05:17.590 --> 00:05:20.950
Jesus said, Hey, when you
see this, you have come
113
00:05:20.950 --> 00:05:22.720
to the very close of the age,
114
00:05:22.720 --> 00:05:25.480
but then, he gave them more.
115
00:05:25.480 --> 00:05:27.430
And in fact, Jesus gave them more than 20
116
00:05:27.430 --> 00:05:29.230
signs: in this series,
117
00:05:29.230 --> 00:05:30.820
we're looking at 19 of them
118
00:05:30.820 --> 00:05:33.280
because that's all we have time to cover.
119
00:05:33.280 --> 00:05:36.550
But the 1st sign Jesus gave was
120
00:05:36.550 --> 00:05:38.740
worldwide deception.
121
00:05:38.740 --> 00:05:42.400
The 2nd sign Jesus gave was wars.
122
00:05:42.400 --> 00:05:46.510
The 3rd sign Jesus gave was rumors of wars.
123
00:05:46.510 --> 00:05:48.610
The next sign was commotions.
124
00:05:48.610 --> 00:05:51.040
We covered that in the last episode.
125
00:05:51.040 --> 00:05:54.460
The next sign was nations
Rising against Nations.
126
00:05:54.460 --> 00:05:59.000
The next sign was kingdoms rising against kingdoms.
127
00:05:59.000 --> 00:06:01.370
My friend, if you missed
that in the previous episode,
128
00:06:01.370 --> 00:06:03.950
either order the series
or go back to the archives
129
00:06:03.950 --> 00:06:05.210
because you need to know
130
00:06:05.210 --> 00:06:08.630
what the Bible's talking about
when it speaks of commotions
131
00:06:08.630 --> 00:06:11.000
and nations rising against nations
132
00:06:11.000 --> 00:06:13.190
and kingdoms rising against kingdoms.
133
00:06:13.190 --> 00:06:16.220
We're seeing all of that in our time.
134
00:06:16.220 --> 00:06:19.280
But today we're going to
look at the next signs,
135
00:06:19.280 --> 00:06:23.210
sign number 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11.
136
00:06:23.210 --> 00:06:27.890
And they are - famines, scarcities,
137
00:06:27.890 --> 00:06:30.590
economic woes, pestilence
138
00:06:31.430 --> 00:06:33.740
and diseases.
139
00:06:33.740 --> 00:06:36.650
Jesus said these would be indicative
140
00:06:36.650 --> 00:06:38.060
that you've come to the end of the age.
141
00:06:38.060 --> 00:06:42.290
Now there have always been these things in the human race,
142
00:06:42.290 --> 00:06:43.730
but when we come to the end of the age,
143
00:06:43.730 --> 00:06:47.360
these things are going to
be amplified and magnified.
144
00:06:47.360 --> 00:06:50.540
So let's begin in Matthew 24:7,
145
00:06:50.540 --> 00:06:52.400
where Jesus continued to say,
146
00:06:53.750 --> 00:06:55.670
For nation shall rise against nation.
147
00:06:55.670 --> 00:06:57.740
We saw that in the previous program -
148
00:06:57.740 --> 00:06:59.390
and kingdom against kingdom.
149
00:06:59.390 --> 00:07:01.550
We saw that also in the previous program.
150
00:07:01.550 --> 00:07:06.350
But then Jesus adds and there shall be famines -
151
00:07:06.350 --> 00:07:09.860
famines. Well, what do we mean by famines?
152
00:07:09.860 --> 00:07:11.750
Well, I'm gonna come to the board
153
00:07:11.750 --> 00:07:13.670
because I want you to see this.
154
00:07:13.670 --> 00:07:16.790
The words famine, let's look at it here,
155
00:07:16.790 --> 00:07:18.710
in Greek is very important
156
00:07:18.710 --> 00:07:21.110
and it means much more than what you think.
157
00:07:21.110 --> 00:07:22.940
Usually when you hear the word famine,
158
00:07:22.940 --> 00:07:24.080
you think of a lack of food.
159
00:07:24.080 --> 00:07:26.210
And certainly that is true,
but it's much more than that.
160
00:07:26.210 --> 00:07:30.680
It Greek, it is the word limos: limos.
161
00:07:30.680 --> 00:07:34.400
However, in Greek it is plural, so it's actually limoi.
162
00:07:34.400 --> 00:07:38.510
So it's not just a famine, but at a time of famines.
163
00:07:38.510 --> 00:07:40.250
If you wanna spell this in English,
164
00:07:40.250 --> 00:07:42.290
it would be spelled like this.
165
00:07:42.290 --> 00:07:46.730
Or in plural it would be spelled like this - limoi.
166
00:07:46.730 --> 00:07:47.960
Now what does it mean?
167
00:07:47.960 --> 00:07:50.570
Well, let me read to you
directly from my notes.
168
00:07:50.570 --> 00:07:54.860
This word limos, here translated famines is
169
00:07:54.860 --> 00:07:59.630
plural and it describes multiple famines.
170
00:07:59.630 --> 00:08:02.360
It is a scarcity of grain
171
00:08:02.360 --> 00:08:06.410
or it depicts deficits of all types in including - listen
172
00:08:06.410 --> 00:08:10.940
to this - financial deficits and shortages.
173
00:08:10.940 --> 00:08:12.950
But let's just stop for a moment
174
00:08:12.950 --> 00:08:16.520
and think about famines in the
typical sense, which is a lack
175
00:08:16.520 --> 00:08:19.850
of food resulting in starvation.
176
00:08:19.850 --> 00:08:24.020
And I wanna read to you from pages 72
177
00:08:24.020 --> 00:08:27.830
to 73 of Signs - Just Before Jesus Comes.
178
00:08:27.830 --> 00:08:31.790
Listen to this. According to a report from World Hunger
179
00:08:31.790 --> 00:08:32.900
and Poverty Facts
180
00:08:32.900 --> 00:08:34.430
and Statistics,
181
00:08:34.430 --> 00:08:39.110
more than 250,000 people die every year
182
00:08:39.110 --> 00:08:43.580
around the world from hunger
and hunger related causes.
183
00:08:43.580 --> 00:08:48.440
Another shocking report
is that between 250,000
184
00:08:48.440 --> 00:08:52.820
to 500,000 children, children
185
00:08:52.820 --> 00:08:57.660
become blind each year due to
vitamin deficiencies caused
186
00:08:57.660 --> 00:09:00.120
by extreme undernourishment.
187
00:09:00.120 --> 00:09:05.070
And half of those die within
a year of their blindness.
188
00:09:05.070 --> 00:09:08.220
Think of the famines that have purged millions
189
00:09:08.220 --> 00:09:12.120
of people from the planet in
various parts of the world.
190
00:09:12.120 --> 00:09:15.990
In our lifetimes, the
images of starving children
191
00:09:15.990 --> 00:09:19.680
and adults have been paraded
before us on television
192
00:09:19.680 --> 00:09:22.950
and other media to bring the stark reality of this suffering
193
00:09:22.950 --> 00:09:25.260
to the forefront of our minds.
194
00:09:25.260 --> 00:09:26.550
Let's pause just for a moment.
195
00:09:26.550 --> 00:09:30.180
I want you to remember all
the wonderful ministries
196
00:09:30.180 --> 00:09:33.390
and charitable organizations
that are providing food
197
00:09:33.390 --> 00:09:35.280
to the hungry all over the world
198
00:09:35.280 --> 00:09:39.030
and many parts of the world,
they have no access to water.
199
00:09:39.030 --> 00:09:43.140
Several of my friends have
major television ministries
200
00:09:43.140 --> 00:09:45.840
that are geared to helping
people that are starving
201
00:09:45.840 --> 00:09:47.880
or who have no access to water.
202
00:09:47.880 --> 00:09:50.130
My friends, you have access to water,
203
00:09:50.130 --> 00:09:52.170
you have access to food.
204
00:09:52.170 --> 00:09:54.540
You may not have access
to everything you want,
205
00:09:54.540 --> 00:09:56.580
but you've got water to drink.
206
00:09:56.580 --> 00:09:58.860
You've got food at least
in some measure to eat.
207
00:09:58.860 --> 00:10:00.690
But there are people in
other parts of the world
208
00:10:00.690 --> 00:10:04.410
who have no water and
they have no food at all.
209
00:10:04.410 --> 00:10:06.720
And we need to remember
that there are people
210
00:10:06.720 --> 00:10:08.790
that are suffering from malnutrition
211
00:10:08.790 --> 00:10:11.490
and starvation in other
parts of the world.
212
00:10:11.490 --> 00:10:12.810
And as a whole,
213
00:10:12.810 --> 00:10:16.110
there are more corporately
right now suffering than
214
00:10:16.110 --> 00:10:17.490
ever before.
215
00:10:17.490 --> 00:10:21.720
It is off the charts. So
let's go back to my notes.
216
00:10:21.720 --> 00:10:23.610
Think of the famines
that have purged millions
217
00:10:23.610 --> 00:10:25.920
of people from the planet in
various parts of the world
218
00:10:25.920 --> 00:10:30.180
in our lifetimes. The images of starving children
219
00:10:30.180 --> 00:10:33.630
and adults have been paraded
before us on television
220
00:10:33.630 --> 00:10:36.450
and other media to bring the
stark reality of the suffering
221
00:10:36.450 --> 00:10:38.640
to the forefront of our minds.
222
00:10:38.640 --> 00:10:42.030
And in many parts of the
world, the lack of food
223
00:10:42.030 --> 00:10:43.500
and clean water
224
00:10:43.500 --> 00:10:46.920
or the lack of any water at all is an
225
00:10:46.920 --> 00:10:49.290
unimaginable crisis.
226
00:10:49.290 --> 00:10:51.180
Despite the wonderful efforts
227
00:10:51.180 --> 00:10:55.290
by many charitable organizations, the problems associated
228
00:10:55.290 --> 00:10:57.330
with hunger, malnutrition
229
00:10:57.330 --> 00:11:00.180
and disease as a result of no water
230
00:11:00.180 --> 00:11:03.600
or dirty water has grown
worse in recent years.
231
00:11:03.600 --> 00:11:07.050
And currently our planet has a population
232
00:11:07.050 --> 00:11:09.090
of over 8 billion people.
233
00:11:09.090 --> 00:11:10.710
And according to the food
234
00:11:10.710 --> 00:11:14.190
and agricultural organization of the United Nations - listen
235
00:11:14.190 --> 00:11:18.480
to this - approximately 1 in 9 suffer from
236
00:11:18.480 --> 00:11:21.330
chronic undernourishment.
237
00:11:21.330 --> 00:11:25.290
That means all these people
lack the food necessary
238
00:11:25.290 --> 00:11:27.420
to maintain normal health.
239
00:11:27.420 --> 00:11:31.830
To help you understand the approximate size of that number,
240
00:11:31.830 --> 00:11:36.720
think of the populations of
the entire European continent.
241
00:11:36.720 --> 00:11:37.920
But that's not enough.
242
00:11:37.920 --> 00:11:41.880
You gotta add to that number
the populations of California
243
00:11:41.880 --> 00:11:44.310
and Texas combined.
244
00:11:44.310 --> 00:11:48.690
That is how many people are suffering from undernourishment,
245
00:11:48.690 --> 00:11:52.710
starvation and a lack of water: that is just unthinkable.
246
00:11:52.710 --> 00:11:56.110
Now when living where you live
and you go to work every day
247
00:11:56.110 --> 00:11:58.840
and you go out to restaurants
and then you run by the store
248
00:11:58.840 --> 00:12:00.280
and get some food to take home,
249
00:12:00.280 --> 00:12:02.290
you don't really think
every day about people
250
00:12:02.290 --> 00:12:05.590
that have nothing to eat
and no water to drink.
251
00:12:05.590 --> 00:12:07.360
But Jesus said at the very end of the age,
252
00:12:07.360 --> 00:12:08.560
this would be amplified.
253
00:12:08.560 --> 00:12:12.730
And my friends, it really
is being amplified.
254
00:12:12.730 --> 00:12:17.560
And it brings to my mind
the words of Proverbs 19:17,
255
00:12:17.560 --> 00:12:21.910
which says He that has pity upon the poor lendeth
256
00:12:21.910 --> 00:12:23.470
to the Lord and
257
00:12:23.470 --> 00:12:26.200
that which he has given
will he repay him again.
258
00:12:26.200 --> 00:12:29.440
Which means when you give
to those that are destitute,
259
00:12:29.440 --> 00:12:31.330
your lending to the Lord
260
00:12:31.330 --> 00:12:33.580
and the Lord will repay you for that.
261
00:12:33.580 --> 00:12:36.100
We're also told in Proverbs 21:13,
262
00:12:36.100 --> 00:12:40.420
Whosoever stops his ear at the cry of the poor,
263
00:12:40.420 --> 00:12:45.130
he shall also cry himself but shall not be heard.
264
00:12:45.130 --> 00:12:47.200
Which means when we don't pay attention to the poor
265
00:12:47.200 --> 00:12:48.910
and to those that are suffering,
266
00:12:48.910 --> 00:12:52.300
it gets us in trouble later when we need help.
267
00:12:52.300 --> 00:12:54.160
And listen, I wanna read a verse to you
268
00:12:54.160 --> 00:12:55.240
that really means a lot to me,
269
00:12:55.240 --> 00:12:57.430
and I live my life by this verse.
270
00:12:57.430 --> 00:13:01.390
And it is Proverbs 11:24.
271
00:13:01.390 --> 00:13:04.930
There is he that scatters
and yet increases
272
00:13:04.930 --> 00:13:08.110
and there he that withholds more than is meet
273
00:13:08.110 --> 00:13:09.310
and attends the poverty.
274
00:13:09.310 --> 00:13:12.100
But the liberal soul shall be made fat
275
00:13:12.100 --> 00:13:15.070
and heath that waters shall
be watered also himself.
276
00:13:15.070 --> 00:13:18.550
And I have really taken these
verses very seriously in my
277
00:13:18.550 --> 00:13:21.520
life and financially I'm going
to scatter everywhere I go:
278
00:13:21.520 --> 00:13:24.100
whether it's giving a really good tip to a waiter
279
00:13:24.100 --> 00:13:26.860
or a waitress or whether it's
giving to another ministry
280
00:13:26.860 --> 00:13:29.230
or giving to those that
are in financial need.
281
00:13:29.230 --> 00:13:32.110
I want to be one that is
constantly scattering.
282
00:13:32.110 --> 00:13:34.600
And the Bible says, if I'll
do that, God will see to it
283
00:13:34.600 --> 00:13:35.980
that I increase.
284
00:13:35.980 --> 00:13:39.400
And the Bible says, the liberal soul shall be made fat,
285
00:13:39.400 --> 00:13:41.830
which means when you take care of others, God's gonna see
286
00:13:41.830 --> 00:13:44.350
to it that you're taking care of.
287
00:13:44.350 --> 00:13:48.520
And particularly in this time
when starvation and hunger
288
00:13:48.520 --> 00:13:51.340
and famine is so intense
around the world, we
289
00:13:51.340 --> 00:13:54.250
as Christians need to be mindful of others
290
00:13:54.250 --> 00:13:55.780
and do what we can to help.
291
00:13:55.780 --> 00:13:58.420
This is an opportunity. Wow!
292
00:13:58.420 --> 00:14:03.070
But this word famine, the Greek word limos, that's singular.
293
00:14:03.070 --> 00:14:05.350
But here we find limoi, which is plural.
294
00:14:05.350 --> 00:14:07.750
It describes multiple famines,
295
00:14:07.750 --> 00:14:11.170
it also carries another important idea.
296
00:14:11.170 --> 00:14:14.680
The Greek word by itself actually describes a scarcity
297
00:14:14.680 --> 00:14:16.840
or a lack of grain -
298
00:14:16.840 --> 00:14:17.950
grain. Well,
299
00:14:17.950 --> 00:14:22.090
in the 1st Century when Jesus was speaking, guess what?
300
00:14:22.090 --> 00:14:25.570
Economies were based on grain.
301
00:14:25.570 --> 00:14:27.670
If you had a lot of grain,
302
00:14:27.670 --> 00:14:29.500
then you were gonna have
a good financial year.
303
00:14:29.500 --> 00:14:31.810
If you had a shortage of grain, then
304
00:14:31.810 --> 00:14:34.660
as a whole you were gonna have
a really bad financial year.
305
00:14:34.660 --> 00:14:37.060
And when there was a deficit of grain,
306
00:14:37.060 --> 00:14:40.960
it caused real scarcity on every level.
307
00:14:40.960 --> 00:14:44.590
And this is the reason why Rome always wanted
308
00:14:44.590 --> 00:14:46.660
to have a good relationship with Egypt,
309
00:14:46.660 --> 00:14:49.600
because Egypt was the breadbasket of the Roman Empire.
310
00:14:49.600 --> 00:14:52.850
And as long as Rome had access to the grain of Egypt,
311
00:14:52.850 --> 00:14:54.200
Rome was in good shape.
312
00:14:54.200 --> 00:14:57.590
But if Egypt had a plague
or if Egypt had a famine
313
00:14:57.590 --> 00:15:00.440
and there was no grain,
it shook the finances
314
00:15:00.440 --> 00:15:02.660
of the whole Roman Empire.
315
00:15:02.660 --> 00:15:05.300
So this word famine has hidden within it
316
00:15:05.300 --> 00:15:09.110
also, the idea of financial deficits
317
00:15:09.110 --> 00:15:10.640
and shortages.
318
00:15:10.640 --> 00:15:14.450
And here Jesus used this word, famine
319
00:15:14.450 --> 00:15:17.060
to forecast a scarcity of grain
320
00:15:17.060 --> 00:15:21.470
or widespread hunger in the
last days, but also shortfalls
321
00:15:21.470 --> 00:15:25.040
or financial deficits in world markets
322
00:15:25.040 --> 00:15:27.620
that would affect the whole globe.
323
00:15:27.620 --> 00:15:28.730
It was a prediction
324
00:15:28.730 --> 00:15:33.730
of financial instability
at the very end of the age.
325
00:15:33.770 --> 00:15:37.220
But this word, this word limos,
326
00:15:37.220 --> 00:15:41.420
can also describe financial woes - financial woes: such
327
00:15:41.420 --> 00:15:43.400
as financial shakings
328
00:15:43.400 --> 00:15:45.410
that would be repeated
again and again and again.
329
00:15:45.410 --> 00:15:47.210
And the reason I say again
and again and again is
330
00:15:47.210 --> 00:15:49.460
because in Greek it's limoi, it is plural.
331
00:15:49.460 --> 00:15:51.320
It describes an event that happens again
332
00:15:51.320 --> 00:15:52.550
and again and again.
333
00:15:52.550 --> 00:15:57.320
And here Jesus was forecasting
financial instability
334
00:15:57.320 --> 00:16:01.280
that would become more and more
pronounced as we come closer
335
00:16:01.280 --> 00:16:03.890
to the end of the age.
336
00:16:03.890 --> 00:16:06.800
But then Jesus continues,
337
00:16:06.800 --> 00:16:11.480
and in Luke 21:11 he says, And there shall be pestilences,
338
00:16:12.380 --> 00:16:16.280
pestilences. What do we mean by pestilences?
339
00:16:16.280 --> 00:16:17.570
Well, let's look at that.
340
00:16:17.570 --> 00:16:20.450
And if you're taking notes, I
want you to write this down.
341
00:16:20.450 --> 00:16:24.590
The word pestilences in Greek, it is plural.
342
00:16:24.590 --> 00:16:27.097
It is the word, loimos.
343
00:16:27.097 --> 00:16:32.097
looks very similar to
this but is not the same.
344
00:16:32.210 --> 00:16:34.790
But except here it is plural.
345
00:16:35.990 --> 00:16:37.400
Now if you wanna spell this in English,
346
00:16:37.400 --> 00:16:39.710
the first spelling would be loimos.
347
00:16:41.540 --> 00:16:45.830
The 2nd would be loumoi. It's plural.
348
00:16:45.830 --> 00:16:49.280
And here it doesn't just mean one pestilence,
349
00:16:49.280 --> 00:16:51.590
but multiple pestilences:
350
00:16:51.590 --> 00:16:54.650
multiple. Well, what do I mean by pestilence?
351
00:16:54.650 --> 00:16:56.510
Well, let me read to you from my notes.
352
00:16:56.510 --> 00:17:00.320
In Greek, it is plural and it describes pestilences.
353
00:17:00.320 --> 00:17:04.640
And the Greek word literally
depicts old diseases being
354
00:17:04.640 --> 00:17:09.620
reactivated or newly emerging diseases never
355
00:17:09.620 --> 00:17:11.480
before seen.
356
00:17:11.480 --> 00:17:14.330
And I wanna read to you from pages 83
357
00:17:14.330 --> 00:17:18.650
and 84 to 85 in my book, Signs
358
00:17:18.650 --> 00:17:19.700
You'll See Just
359
00:17:19.700 --> 00:17:23.330
Before Jesus Comes. The planet is being hard hit
360
00:17:23.330 --> 00:17:25.160
with multiple diseases
361
00:17:25.160 --> 00:17:28.010
that are decimating populations all over the world.
362
00:17:28.010 --> 00:17:31.130
Even if cures exist, medicines
363
00:17:31.130 --> 00:17:33.290
and supplies to deal with the avalanche
364
00:17:33.290 --> 00:17:36.380
of disease spreading throughout the human race are often
365
00:17:36.380 --> 00:17:38.030
in short supply.
366
00:17:38.030 --> 00:17:40.160
In addition to normal strains of disease
367
00:17:40.160 --> 00:17:43.220
that medical science regularly combats,
368
00:17:43.220 --> 00:17:46.310
today, science is struggling to fight the onslaught
369
00:17:46.310 --> 00:17:49.410
of newly emerging infectious diseases.
370
00:17:49.410 --> 00:17:52.830
These are often actually old diseases
371
00:17:52.830 --> 00:17:55.260
that have had life breathed into them again.
372
00:17:55.260 --> 00:17:58.380
And such emerging diseases have the potential
373
00:17:58.380 --> 00:18:01.980
to affect massive populations across the earth.
374
00:18:01.980 --> 00:18:05.610
Cures for these are frequently more difficult to find
375
00:18:05.610 --> 00:18:08.940
as new strains of the disease become more powerful.
376
00:18:08.940 --> 00:18:13.320
And as a result, larger numbers of people are put at risk.
377
00:18:13.320 --> 00:18:16.260
The World Health Organization states
378
00:18:16.260 --> 00:18:18.450
that many potential epidemic
379
00:18:18.450 --> 00:18:23.450
and pandemic pestilence already exist in latent states.
380
00:18:23.460 --> 00:18:27.690
This means many life-threatening diseases are lying dormant
381
00:18:27.690 --> 00:18:31.860
and could be awakened at any
moment To swiftly invade the
382
00:18:31.860 --> 00:18:33.810
Human Race. If one
383
00:18:33.810 --> 00:18:36.480
or two of these epidemics become activated
384
00:18:36.480 --> 00:18:38.880
and find a way into the world's population,
385
00:18:38.880 --> 00:18:41.340
what would happen in a very brief period
386
00:18:41.340 --> 00:18:43.560
of time is unthinkable.
387
00:18:43.560 --> 00:18:46.860
The mere thought of this
possibility has scientists
388
00:18:46.860 --> 00:18:50.670
and the medical world in a
constant state of urgency.
389
00:18:50.670 --> 00:18:52.740
Professionals predict that
390
00:18:52.740 --> 00:18:57.480
before us will be the reemergence of new infectious diseases
391
00:18:57.480 --> 00:18:58.800
and that the reemergence
392
00:18:58.800 --> 00:19:03.480
of old diseases will have a significant impact on health.
393
00:19:03.480 --> 00:19:07.230
A number of factors will influence this development: travel
394
00:19:07.230 --> 00:19:11.790
and trade, microbiological resistance, human behavior,
395
00:19:11.790 --> 00:19:13.800
break down in health systems,
396
00:19:15.030 --> 00:19:18.630
increased pressure on the environment, social-political
397
00:19:18.630 --> 00:19:21.180
and economic factors that cause the movement
398
00:19:21.180 --> 00:19:23.130
of people will also increase contact
399
00:19:23.130 --> 00:19:24.630
between people and microbes
400
00:19:24.630 --> 00:19:26.640
and environmental changes caused
401
00:19:26.640 --> 00:19:29.730
by human activity, will all contribute
402
00:19:29.730 --> 00:19:31.770
to the spread of disease.
403
00:19:31.770 --> 00:19:33.480
The overuse of antibiotics
404
00:19:33.480 --> 00:19:36.090
and insecticides combined with inadequate
405
00:19:36.090 --> 00:19:39.810
or deteriorating public health
infrastructures will hamper
406
00:19:39.810 --> 00:19:44.370
daily responses to increasing disease threats.
407
00:19:44.370 --> 00:19:49.260
Ay..yi..now that my friend is
not the word of a theologian,
408
00:19:49.260 --> 00:19:52.830
that is the word of medical
professionals and scientists.
409
00:19:52.830 --> 00:19:54.810
And it agrees with what Jesus said.
410
00:19:54.810 --> 00:19:58.920
He said In the very end of the
age, there will be loumoi,
411
00:19:59.760 --> 00:20:02.370
the plural form of loimos,
412
00:20:02.370 --> 00:20:05.760
which means pestilences, old diseases
413
00:20:05.760 --> 00:20:10.530
and new diseases, old diseases
that are being reactivated.
414
00:20:10.530 --> 00:20:13.410
And Jesus said it will happen more and more
415
00:20:13.410 --> 00:20:17.280
and more - plural - toward the end of the age.
416
00:20:17.280 --> 00:20:21.960
It's a good reason for us to live in the 91st Psalm.
417
00:20:21.960 --> 00:20:24.690
And in the 91st Psalm verse 1, it says - He
418
00:20:24.690 --> 00:20:27.210
that dwells in the secret place
419
00:20:27.210 --> 00:20:30.090
of the most high shall
abide under the shadow
420
00:20:30.090 --> 00:20:31.920
of the Almighty.
421
00:20:31.920 --> 00:20:34.950
And when you get down to verse 6, it says
422
00:20:34.950 --> 00:20:37.590
that we do not need to fear for the pestilence
423
00:20:37.590 --> 00:20:39.300
that walketh in darkness,
424
00:20:39.300 --> 00:20:42.660
nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
425
00:20:42.660 --> 00:20:46.900
And verse 10 says, There shall no evil befall thee,
426
00:20:46.900 --> 00:20:51.040
neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
427
00:20:51.040 --> 00:20:54.970
Verse 16: With long life will I satisfy him
428
00:20:54.970 --> 00:20:58.750
and show him my salvation - my friends, we need
429
00:20:58.750 --> 00:21:01.270
to live under the shadow of the Almighty
430
00:21:01.270 --> 00:21:06.190
where we have protection: protection both from famine
431
00:21:06.190 --> 00:21:10.270
and from financial hardship
and also from disease.
432
00:21:10.270 --> 00:21:15.130
Living in the shadow of the
Most High is the safest place
433
00:21:15.130 --> 00:21:17.020
for us to live.
434
00:21:17.020 --> 00:21:18.520
Amen.
435
00:21:18.520 --> 00:21:20.500
Hey, but when we come
back in the next episode,
436
00:21:20.500 --> 00:21:21.700
we're gonna pick up here
437
00:21:21.700 --> 00:21:24.790
and see the next signs that Jesus gave us
438
00:21:24.790 --> 00:21:27.370
that would be indicative that we've come
439
00:21:27.370 --> 00:21:29.380
to the close of the age.
440
00:21:29.380 --> 00:21:33.735
I'll be back in just a moment
and I'm going to pray for you.
441
00:21:40.330 --> 00:21:43.750
Someone has asked the question - Brother Rick, I'm believing
442
00:21:43.750 --> 00:21:44.860
for victory in my life,
443
00:21:44.860 --> 00:21:46.300
but when I look at everything around me,
444
00:21:46.300 --> 00:21:48.190
all I see is defeat.
445
00:21:48.190 --> 00:21:50.440
So what should I do?
446
00:21:50.440 --> 00:21:54.010
Well, James tells us in James1:3
447
00:21:54.010 --> 00:21:56.950
& 4, that you need to let patience have its
448
00:21:56.950 --> 00:21:58.720
perfect work.
449
00:21:58.720 --> 00:22:00.580
One man has translated this, you need
450
00:22:00.580 --> 00:22:03.100
to let patients run full course.
451
00:22:03.100 --> 00:22:05.110
It's like a woman that is pregnant,
452
00:22:05.110 --> 00:22:07.630
she's not gonna have a baby in 24 hours.
453
00:22:07.630 --> 00:22:09.070
She's gotta go full term
454
00:22:09.070 --> 00:22:11.110
before she gives birth to that child.
455
00:22:11.110 --> 00:22:14.500
And it may be that you're
right on track for the victory
456
00:22:14.500 --> 00:22:16.120
that you are waiting for,
457
00:22:16.120 --> 00:22:19.330
but the moment of its
delivery has not come yet.
458
00:22:19.330 --> 00:22:22.300
And also remember that 1 John 5:4 says,
459
00:22:22.300 --> 00:22:25.180
Whoever's born of God overcomes the world.
460
00:22:25.180 --> 00:22:27.580
You are a world overcomer.
461
00:22:27.580 --> 00:22:30.280
So don't throw in the towel
or give into what you see
462
00:22:30.280 --> 00:22:31.840
or to what you feel.
463
00:22:31.840 --> 00:22:33.550
You stay in a place of faith
464
00:22:33.550 --> 00:22:36.280
and let your faith run full course
465
00:22:36.280 --> 00:22:39.160
until you finally
receive the manifestation
466
00:22:39.160 --> 00:22:42.520
and the victory that you're waiting for.
467
00:22:42.520 --> 00:22:44.710
How close are we to the end?
468
00:22:44.710 --> 00:22:48.430
It's a question people have
been asking for 2000 years,
469
00:22:48.430 --> 00:22:51.910
but as Christians, we have access to the answer.
470
00:22:51.910 --> 00:22:53.260
In his new series -
471
00:22:53.260 --> 00:22:55.090
How Close Are We to The End? -
472
00:22:55.090 --> 00:22:57.940
Rick Renner dives into Jesus' prophetic teachings
473
00:22:57.940 --> 00:23:00.850
of the End-Times to breakdown the signs that we need
474
00:23:00.850 --> 00:23:02.560
to be looking out for.
475
00:23:02.560 --> 00:23:05.560

481
00:23:23.320 --> 00:23:25.630
and equip you to determine for yourself
482
00:23:25.630 --> 00:23:27.640
where we stand today.
483
00:23:27.640 --> 00:23:29.860

That book really helped me when I was writing it
504
00:24:24.050 --> 00:24:25.820
because it let me see exactly
505
00:24:25.820 --> 00:24:28.520
where we are prophetically in time.
506
00:24:28.520 --> 00:24:31.700

those that are being fulfilled, those that are
510
00:24:41.570 --> 00:24:43.280
yet to be fulfilled.
511
00:24:43.280 --> 00:24:44.960

00:24:59.420 --> 00:25:00.860
how to pray for you.
519
00:25:00.860 --> 00:25:02.630
Now today we talked about pestilence,
520
00:25:02.630 --> 00:25:03.650
we talked about famine,
521
00:25:03.650 --> 00:25:07.430
and we talked about living in
the shadow of the Almighty.
522
00:25:07.430 --> 00:25:09.290
And I wanna pray for you.
523
00:25:09.290 --> 00:25:11.750
Father, we thank you that we
do not have to live in fear
524
00:25:11.750 --> 00:25:14.210
and you don't do anything to scare us,
525
00:25:14.210 --> 00:25:16.340
but you do prepare us.
526
00:25:16.340 --> 00:25:17.570
And thank you that you've
527
