00:00:01.440 --> 00:00:04.120 line:15%
This program is made
possible by the giving
2
00:00:04.120 --> 00:00:07.380 line:15%
of the God-called partners
of Renner Ministries.
3
00:00:08.260 --> 00:00:11.480 line:15%
Get ready for a teaching
that feeds your spirit
4
00:00:11.480 --> 00:00:14.980 line:15%
and your mind, where the
word is the anchor in
5
00:00:14.980 --> 00:00:16.100 line:15%
uncertain times.
6
00:00:16.980 --> 00:00:19.400 line:15%
And doctrine doesn't bend to culture.
7
00:00:20.280 --> 00:00:21.700 line:15%
We keep it simple,
8
00:00:21.700 --> 00:00:26.100 line:15%
but dive deep, revealing a
truth that strengthens us,
9
00:00:27.140 --> 00:00:28.880 line:15%
a love that emboldens,
10
00:00:30.180 --> 00:00:32.240 line:15%
and a mission that touches the world.
11
00:00:34.660 --> 00:00:35.760 line:15%
Let's join Rick
12
00:00:35.760 --> 00:00:36.760 line:15%
Renner.
13
00:00:38.760 --> 00:00:41.100 line:15%
Welcome to today's
program. It's Wednesday.
14
00:00:41.100 --> 00:00:43.280 line:15%
We're halfway through the week,
15
00:00:43.280 --> 00:00:46.260 line:15%
and today we're here
again with my dear friend,
16
00:00:46.260 --> 00:00:47.560 line:15%
Pastor Bob the Yandian.
17
00:00:47.560 --> 00:00:49.020 line:15%
It's great to be here.
Thank
18
00:00:49.020 --> 00:00:49.853 line:15%
You. I'm so
19
00:00:49.853 --> 00:00:50.660 line:15%
Honored
That you are on my
20
00:00:50.660 --> 00:00:51.660 line:15%
Program.
21
00:00:51.660 --> 00:00:53.600 line:15%
Well, I'm honored to be on your program.
22
00:00:53.600 --> 00:00:56.200 line:15%
You've been such a strong
voice in my life for years
23
00:00:56.200 --> 00:00:58.360 line:15%
and years, and I'm
believing that we're going
24
00:00:58.360 --> 00:01:00.800 line:15%
to be involved in each other's
life for years to come.
25
00:01:00.800 --> 00:01:02.060 line:15%
Absolutely.
I would love
26
00:01:02.060 --> 00:01:03.580 line:15%
to see Jesus come during our lifetime.
27
00:01:03.580 --> 00:01:05.220 line:15%
Wouldn't it be great?
And we might.
28
00:01:05.220 --> 00:01:07.860 line:15%
Yeah. - But you know, Pastor
Bob has written a new book
29
00:01:07.860 --> 00:01:10.260 line:15%
and he asked me to write
the foreword for it,
30
00:01:10.260 --> 00:01:12.420 line:15%
and that was such an honor for me.
31
00:01:12.420 --> 00:01:14.700 line:15%
And the name of the book
is The Day of the Lord.
32
00:01:14.700 --> 00:01:17.700 line:15%
The subtitle says what
the book of Joel reveals
33
00:01:17.700 --> 00:01:21.200 line:15%
about the last days and the
outpouring of the Holy Spirit.
34
00:01:21.200 --> 00:01:22.220 line:15%
And this week, Bob
35
00:01:22.220 --> 00:01:24.580 line:15%
and I are doing a series
about the outpouring
36
00:01:24.580 --> 00:01:26.600 line:15%
of the Holy Spirit in the last days.
37
00:01:26.600 --> 00:01:29.060 line:15%
And you can get these
resources by going online
38
00:01:29.960 --> 00:01:32.100 line:15%
or by just giving us a call.
39
00:01:32.100 --> 00:01:34.200 line:15%
Just give us a call. We'll
tell you all about these
40
00:01:34.200 --> 00:01:36.240 line:15%
resources, how you can get them.
41
00:01:36.240 --> 00:01:38.400 line:15%
And if you need prayer,
we want to pray for you.
42
00:01:38.400 --> 00:01:41.041 line:15%
You don't have to order
anything to ask for prayer.
43
00:01:41.041 --> 00:01:43.101 line:15%
Just call. We're waiting to pray for you.
44
00:01:43.101 --> 00:01:44.901 line:15%
There are many people who call every day
45
00:01:44.901 --> 00:01:46.681 line:15%
who never order a thing,
46
00:01:46.681 --> 00:01:49.561 line:15%
but they need somebody to pray with them.
47
00:01:49.561 --> 00:01:52.641 line:15%
And we believe that is part
of our ministry for you.
48
00:01:52.641 --> 00:01:54.041 line:15%
You can pray by yourself.
49
00:01:54.041 --> 00:01:56.861 line:15%
Of course you can, but sometimes it helps
50
00:01:56.861 --> 00:01:58.321 line:15%
to have somebody pray with you.
51
00:01:58.321 --> 00:02:01.981 line:15%
So call us, we'll pray with
you or send us an email.
52
00:02:01.981 --> 00:02:04.261 line:15%
And when we hear from
you, we're going to pray.
53
00:02:04.261 --> 00:02:07.321 line:15%
Jesus is going to hear and
Jesus is going to answer.
54
00:02:07.321 --> 00:02:08.801 line:15%
Now Pastor Bob, I want
to tell you something.
55
00:02:09.721 --> 00:02:11.021 line:15%
For years and years and years,
56
00:02:11.021 --> 00:02:12.841 line:15%
I never touched end time events
57
00:02:13.741 --> 00:02:15.881 line:15%
because it was such a lightning rod
58
00:02:15.881 --> 00:02:17.921 line:15%
and it seemed to divide people.
59
00:02:17.921 --> 00:02:20.281 line:15%
And I wanted to reach as
many people as possible,
60
00:02:20.281 --> 00:02:23.521 line:15%
so I never wanted to touch a
subject that would cause me
61
00:02:23.521 --> 00:02:25.601 line:15%
to lose people that I could help.
62
00:02:25.601 --> 00:02:28.641 line:15%
But as I got older, I began
to realize, you know what?
63
00:02:28.641 --> 00:02:31.301 line:15%
This subject is really important
64
00:02:31.301 --> 00:02:33.781 line:15%
and we're living in the
conclusion of the age.
65
00:02:33.781 --> 00:02:36.201 line:15%
Rick, you need to begin
teaching about the end
66
00:02:36.201 --> 00:02:38.181 line:15%
of the age in the last days.
67
00:02:38.181 --> 00:02:40.961 line:15%
So now I've written six
books on the subject.
68
00:02:40.961 --> 00:02:42.261 line:15%
This is really important
69
00:02:42.261 --> 00:02:44.621 line:15%
that we understand the end of the age.
70
00:02:44.621 --> 00:02:46.221 line:15%
And I was thinking about the Thessalonians
71
00:02:46.221 --> 00:02:48.861 line:15%
because when Paul was
with the Thessalonians,
72
00:02:48.861 --> 00:02:50.841 line:15%
he was only with them a few months.
73
00:02:50.841 --> 00:02:52.641 line:15%
He wasn't with them very long.
74
00:02:52.641 --> 00:02:54.481 line:15%
But yet when he wrote two Thessalonians
75
00:02:54.481 --> 00:02:56.641 line:15%
and he's talking about all
these in time events, he says,
76
00:02:56.641 --> 00:02:58.941 line:15%
"You know that when I was with you, I
77
00:02:58.941 --> 00:03:00.261 line:15%
told you these things."
78
00:03:00.261 --> 00:03:01.094 line:15%
That's good. Well, he
79
00:03:01.094 --> 00:03:02.661 line:15%
Was just with them a few months.
80
00:03:02.661 --> 00:03:03.941 line:15%
I - Know. They were new Christians,
81
00:03:03.941 --> 00:03:06.261 line:15%
but he believed they needed
to know these things.
82
00:03:06.261 --> 00:03:08.341 line:15%
That's right. And when people don't know
83
00:03:08.341 --> 00:03:10.481 line:15%
what the Bible says
about the end of the age,
84
00:03:10.481 --> 00:03:12.761 line:15%
they make all kinds of miscalculations.
85
00:03:12.761 --> 00:03:15.541 line:15%
They get confused. This
is really important.
86
00:03:15.541 --> 00:03:17.782 line:15%
You know what Jesus told
the disciples in Matthew
87
00:03:17.782 --> 00:03:18.882 line:15%
24 was this.
88
00:03:18.882 --> 00:03:23.882 line:15%
When you see these things
begin to come to pass,
89
00:03:24.302 --> 00:03:27.862 line:15%
look up. We've got so bogged down looking at what's going on
90
00:03:27.862 --> 00:03:31.022 line:15%
around us and walking in fear
when the Bible says these
91
00:03:31.022 --> 00:03:33.522 line:15%
things ought to cause
great rejoicing in you
92
00:03:33.522 --> 00:03:35.082 line:15%
for the coming of the Lord.
93
00:03:35.082 --> 00:03:38.782 line:15%
But we're so down about all
the conditions that we want
94
00:03:38.782 --> 00:03:40.382 line:15%
to kind of fluff it up and change it
95
00:03:40.382 --> 00:03:43.562 line:15%
and make it as it was in the 60s or the 50s or the whenever.
96
00:03:43.562 --> 00:03:45.582 line:15%
And we want to go back to
times that were better,
97
00:03:45.582 --> 00:03:47.502 line:15%
the outpouring of the spirit,
the charismatic movement.
98
00:03:47.502 --> 00:03:49.262 line:15%
We want to try to make those things again.
99
00:03:49.262 --> 00:03:51.562 line:15%
You can't make those things happen.
100
00:03:51.562 --> 00:03:54.262 line:15%
The really results of those
come from just evangelism.
101
00:03:54.262 --> 00:03:55.322 line:15%
Enough people get saved and all
102
00:03:55.322 --> 00:03:57.542 line:15%
of a sudden revival starts to break out.
103
00:03:57.542 --> 00:04:00.582 line:15%
But Jesus said, when you
see these things begin
104
00:04:00.582 --> 00:04:02.102 line:15%
to come to pass, look up.
105
00:04:02.102 --> 00:04:04.042 line:15%
How many people look up? We're all looking
106
00:04:04.042 --> 00:04:05.142 line:15%
out here and we're trying to figure out.
107
00:04:05.142 --> 00:04:07.002 line:15%
So we're going to YouTube.
Oh, what's going to happen?
108
00:04:07.002 --> 00:04:09.942 line:15%
And it's basically fear-based.
Everything's fear-based.
109
00:04:09.942 --> 00:04:11.782 line:15%
There should be no fear
attached to the coming
110
00:04:11.782 --> 00:04:13.902 line:15%
of Jesus Christ because
I'm not going to have
111
00:04:13.902 --> 00:04:16.222 line:15%
to destroy the enemies coming in.
112
00:04:16.222 --> 00:04:17.622 line:15%
I'm not going to change the world.
113
00:04:17.622 --> 00:04:18.842 line:15%
God's going to do all that.
114
00:04:18.842 --> 00:04:20.942 line:15%
I'm not going to do God's
job by changing the world.
115
00:04:20.942 --> 00:04:23.202 line:15%
He's not going to do my job winning souls.
116
00:04:23.202 --> 00:04:26.302 line:15%
If we'll get that across,
then we can work together.
117
00:04:26.302 --> 00:04:28.342 line:15%
And I think enough people
through the past numbers
118
00:04:28.342 --> 00:04:29.662 line:15%
of years have actually took that verse
119
00:04:29.662 --> 00:04:30.882 line:15%
of scripture when you see these things
120
00:04:30.882 --> 00:04:32.542 line:15%
begin to come to pass.
121
00:04:32.542 --> 00:04:35.062 line:15%
I think one of the greatest
beginnings was 1948
122
00:04:35.062 --> 00:04:37.882 line:15%
whenever Israel was again recognized
123
00:04:37.882 --> 00:04:40.062 line:15%
and allowed to have a nation of their own.
124
00:04:40.062 --> 00:04:41.862 line:15%
And to me, that's the root
that's been under the ground
125
00:04:41.862 --> 00:04:43.002 line:15%
and all of a sudden it started to come up
126
00:04:43.002 --> 00:04:44.142 line:15%
because we though it was gone.
127
00:04:44.142 --> 00:04:45.422 line:15%
Rome kicked them out.
128
00:04:45.422 --> 00:04:46.742 line:15%
There's no way they're
ever going to come back
129
00:04:46.742 --> 00:04:49.122 line:15%
and we forgot there was
still a root under the ground
130
00:04:49.122 --> 00:04:51.482 line:15%
and it started coming up in 1948.
131
00:04:51.482 --> 00:04:54.282 line:15%
And God basically has made a
promise in the New Testament
132
00:04:54.282 --> 00:04:56.083 line:15%
that when that happens,
they're not going to ever -
133
00:04:56.083 --> 00:04:57.123 line:15%
And
Look at Israel today.
134
00:04:57.123 --> 00:05:00.043 line:15%
It is blossoming. It
Is. Absolutely.
135
00:05:00.043 --> 00:05:01.163 line:15%
It's a modern day miracle.
136
00:05:01.163 --> 00:05:03.463 line:15%
Yeah. So I would just say
to the people out there,
137
00:05:03.463 --> 00:05:06.403 line:15%
when you hear all these things, don't get filled with fear,
138
00:05:06.403 --> 00:05:08.143 line:15%
get full of faith and rejoicing
139
00:05:08.143 --> 00:05:10.883 line:15%
because the outcome of this
thing is what the Bible...
140
00:05:10.883 --> 00:05:11.963 line:15%
Yes, you can read about the
141
00:05:11.963 --> 00:05:13.103 line:15%
tribulation, but I'll stop there.
142
00:05:13.103 --> 00:05:16.523 line:15%
Keep on reading past that to
the coming of Jesus Christ
143
00:05:16.523 --> 00:05:18.143 line:15%
and the coming of his kingdom
144
00:05:18.143 --> 00:05:19.263 line:15%
because everything ends
145
00:05:19.263 --> 00:05:21.763 line:15%
with God having more
power than the world does.
146
00:05:21.763 --> 00:05:22.923 line:15%
Well, what we're going to get
147
00:05:22.923 --> 00:05:26.123 line:15%
and talk to, we talked about it was the Battle of Armageddon
148
00:05:26.123 --> 00:05:28.283 line:15%
and people keep talking about
all the battle of Armageddon.
149
00:05:28.283 --> 00:05:29.703 line:15%
You're not going to be here first of all.
150
00:05:29.703 --> 00:05:32.183 line:15%
You're going to be in
heaven if you're born again.
151
00:05:32.183 --> 00:05:35.223 line:15%
And next of all is that you're
not going to have to fight.
152
00:05:35.223 --> 00:05:36.943 line:15%
Every battle that comes that Jesus had,
153
00:05:36.943 --> 00:05:38.323 line:15%
angels have helped him fight.
154
00:05:38.323 --> 00:05:39.963 line:15%
In this one, he's going
to come back by himself
155
00:05:39.963 --> 00:05:41.603 line:15%
and just basically say, stop it.
156
00:05:41.603 --> 00:05:43.863 line:15%
This one's mine. He's
going to open up his mouth
157
00:05:43.863 --> 00:05:47.063 line:15%
and destroy all the armies of
the world coming against him.
158
00:05:47.063 --> 00:05:49.303 line:15%
Isn't that amazing? With the word of God.
159
00:05:49.303 --> 00:05:51.123 line:15%
And the Bible says the
blood's going to run
160
00:05:51.123 --> 00:05:55.283 line:15%
to the horse's bridles for 185 miles
161
00:05:55.283 --> 00:05:57.263 line:15%
from the words that come
out of this man's mouth.
162
00:05:57.263 --> 00:05:59.683 line:15%
So you can talk about
all the AI you want to.
163
00:05:59.683 --> 00:06:02.203 line:15%
You can talk about all the new
weapons we've got coming out
164
00:06:02.203 --> 00:06:04.183 line:15%
that are just almost mind-boggling,
165
00:06:04.183 --> 00:06:05.603 line:15%
but the one that's the most mind-boggling
166
00:06:05.603 --> 00:06:07.223 line:15%
of all has been here since the foundation.
167
00:06:07.223 --> 00:06:09.203 line:15%
The word of God. The word of God.
168
00:06:09.203 --> 00:06:12.043 line:15%
Wow. You know, Pastor
Bob, we're both Tulsa boys.
169
00:06:12.043 --> 00:06:14.203 line:15%
Yes, we are.
We both grew up in Tulsa.
170
00:06:14.203 --> 00:06:15.843 line:15%
When I was a boy growing up in Tulsa,
171
00:06:15.843 --> 00:06:17.923 line:15%
we played tag. Did you guys play
172
00:06:17.923 --> 00:06:18.883 line:15%
Tag? Oh yeah.
173
00:06:18.883 --> 00:06:22.003 line:15%
I loved to play tag until I got tagged.
174
00:06:22.883 --> 00:06:24.623 line:15%
I would've wanted somebody
else to be tagged.
175
00:06:24.623 --> 00:06:25.683 line:15%
I know.
But you know what?
176
00:06:25.683 --> 00:06:28.103 line:15%
Eventually, if you play
tag, you get tagged.
177
00:06:29.003 --> 00:06:31.223 line:15%
And I say that God has looked at us
178
00:06:31.223 --> 00:06:33.163 line:15%
and he said, "Tag, you're it.
179
00:06:34.043 --> 00:06:35.864 line:15%
Somebody has to live
at the end of the age."
180
00:06:35.864 --> 00:06:36.864 line:15%
That's right.
181
00:06:36.864 --> 00:06:38.644 line:15%
And God has tagged us.
That's right.
182
00:06:38.644 --> 00:06:40.424 line:15%
And it's our time to play the game.
183
00:06:40.424 --> 00:06:42.584 line:15%
I think it's an honor.
It is an honor that we get
184
00:06:42.584 --> 00:06:45.244 line:15%
to see what prophets prophesied about.
185
00:06:45.244 --> 00:06:48.884 line:15%
And Pastor Bob, honestly,
it thrills my heart.
186
00:06:48.884 --> 00:06:50.884 line:15%
And even when you talk
about the rapture, when you
187
00:06:50.884 --> 00:06:52.884 line:15%
and I were growing up,
there were some movies
188
00:06:52.884 --> 00:06:54.564 line:15%
that came out about the rapture.
189
00:06:54.564 --> 00:06:56.644 line:15%
Yeah. They scared the living daylights out
190
00:06:56.644 --> 00:06:58.104 line:15%
of me, a thief in the night.
191
00:06:58.104 --> 00:07:00.644 line:15%
Oh my gosh, that movie scared me.
192
00:07:00.644 --> 00:07:03.344 line:15%
But you know the Bible tells us in 1 Thessalonians
193
00:07:03.344 --> 00:07:05.404 line:15%
4, that all this talk about the end of the age
194
00:07:05.404 --> 00:07:06.864 line:15%
and the rapture, we're supposed
195
00:07:06.864 --> 00:07:09.424 line:15%
to comfort one another with these words.
196
00:07:09.424 --> 00:07:10.864 line:15%
Well, to be comforted, you have
197
00:07:10.864 --> 00:07:12.404 line:15%
to know what the Bible teaches.
198
00:07:12.404 --> 00:07:14.624 line:15%
If you get a bunch of confusing teaching,
199
00:07:14.624 --> 00:07:16.144 line:15%
it discomforts you.
200
00:07:16.144 --> 00:07:18.624 line:15%
But when you really know
what the Bible teaches,
201
00:07:18.624 --> 00:07:21.804 line:15%
you can know where you
are in time, you can know
202
00:07:21.804 --> 00:07:23.664 line:15%
what's going to come next,
what's going to happen
203
00:07:23.664 --> 00:07:24.744 line:15%
after that, so
204
00:07:24.744 --> 00:07:26.824 line:15%
that you're not taken off
guard by these things.
205
00:07:26.824 --> 00:07:29.404 line:15%
So I want to ask you,
what's going to happen
206
00:07:29.404 --> 00:07:31.724 line:15%
between now and the end of the age?
207
00:07:32.584 --> 00:07:34.084 line:15%
Are you talking about the rapture
208
00:07:34.084 --> 00:07:35.184 line:15%
being the end of the age?
209
00:07:35.184 --> 00:07:36.144 line:15%
And what's going to happen after
210
00:07:36.144 --> 00:07:37.664 line:15%
the rapture and after that?
211
00:07:37.664 --> 00:07:40.244 line:15%
What's in front of us? What
is the sequence of events?
212
00:07:40.244 --> 00:07:42.104 line:15%
Well, I think you're
seeing the beginning
213
00:07:42.104 --> 00:07:44.544 line:15%
and the sequence of events
that God is looking at
214
00:07:44.544 --> 00:07:47.124 line:15%
and we should be looking at is evangelism,
215
00:07:47.124 --> 00:07:48.784 line:15%
and that's our call.
216
00:07:48.784 --> 00:07:52.504 line:15%
And the word of God indicates
strongly that evangelism,
217
00:07:52.504 --> 00:07:55.504 line:15%
it'll reach its peak
during the tribulation.
218
00:07:55.504 --> 00:07:56.604 line:15%
More people will be one
219
00:07:56.604 --> 00:07:59.264 line:15%
to the Lord naturally and supernaturally.
220
00:07:59.264 --> 00:08:00.744 line:15%
He's going to bring in supernatural
221
00:08:00.744 --> 00:08:02.344 line:15%
ways of spreading the gospel.
222
00:08:02.344 --> 00:08:04.144 line:15%
And the natural ways will be that people
223
00:08:04.144 --> 00:08:05.124 line:15%
that are born again are going to
224
00:08:05.124 --> 00:08:06.364 line:15%
start spreading the gospel. Okay,
225
00:08:06.364 --> 00:08:08.164 line:15%
That raises the whole question
226
00:08:08.164 --> 00:08:10.624 line:15%
because some people wrongly teach
227
00:08:10.624 --> 00:08:13.085 line:15%
that the restrainer is the Holy Spirit
228
00:08:13.085 --> 00:08:13.964 line:15%
and that the Holy Spirit's
229
00:08:13.964 --> 00:08:15.165 line:15%
going to be removed from the world.
230
00:08:15.165 --> 00:08:17.125 line:15%
No. He's never going to be removed. No.
231
00:08:17.125 --> 00:08:18.945 line:15%
And on top that we are the restrainer. We are
232
00:08:18.945 --> 00:08:19.945 line:15%
The restrainer.
233
00:08:19.945 --> 00:08:21.025 line:15%
Christians are the restrainer.
234
00:08:21.025 --> 00:08:22.785 line:15%
People are going to get
saved during the tribulation.
235
00:08:22.785 --> 00:08:24.645 line:15%
You can't get saved unless
the Holy Spirit is there.
236
00:08:24.645 --> 00:08:26.665 line:15%
Listen, there's four
spreads of evangelism
237
00:08:26.665 --> 00:08:28.545 line:15%
during the tribulation.
238
00:08:28.545 --> 00:08:32.065 line:15%
No.1 - is the 144,000 immediately, as soon
239
00:08:32.065 --> 00:08:34.440 line:15%
as the church is gone, give
their lives to Jesus Christ,
240
00:08:34.440 --> 00:08:36.665 line:15%
12,000 out of each 12 tribes.
241
00:08:36.665 --> 00:08:38.365 line:15%
Angels are going to come
and preach the gospel
242
00:08:38.365 --> 00:08:41.065 line:15%
and they have never
preached the gospel before.
243
00:08:41.065 --> 00:08:42.985 line:15%
That's how close the end times are.
244
00:08:42.985 --> 00:08:44.605 line:15%
The two witnesses are going to come back
245
00:08:44.605 --> 00:08:46.785 line:15%
and preach the gospel during that time.
246
00:08:46.785 --> 00:08:49.425 line:15%
And so that's three, right?
That's three. Three of them.
247
00:08:49.425 --> 00:08:51.405 line:15%
Okay. And the last one's going to be...
248
00:08:51.405 --> 00:08:53.525 line:15%
Well, I just lost it. So
anyway. That's okay. Old age.
249
00:08:54.525 --> 00:08:57.505 line:15%
So anyway, four of them and
the spread of the gospel.
250
00:08:57.505 --> 00:09:00.585 line:15%
In fact, the ones that Jesus had appeared
251
00:09:00.585 --> 00:09:02.925 line:15%
with him on the mountain
was Moses and Elijah,
252
00:09:02.925 --> 00:09:04.685 line:15%
and it was introducing the coming kingdom.
253
00:09:04.685 --> 00:09:06.045 line:15%
He said, "This is what is going
254
00:09:06.045 --> 00:09:09.165 line:15%
to be happening." So again,
those are going to happen.
255
00:09:09.165 --> 00:09:11.585 line:15%
Yeah, the two witnesses that come.
256
00:09:11.585 --> 00:09:14.705 line:15%
So between now and the millennial reign,
257
00:09:14.705 --> 00:09:16.225 line:15%
so the next major event is going
258
00:09:16.225 --> 00:09:17.785 line:15%
to be the rapture of the church.
259
00:09:17.785 --> 00:09:20.185 line:15%
Now the rebuilding of the
temple could start today.
260
00:09:20.185 --> 00:09:21.365 line:15%
We don't have to wait for the rapture
261
00:09:21.365 --> 00:09:22.665 line:15%
of the church or the tribulation.
262
00:09:22.665 --> 00:09:26.625 line:15%
It could start before the rapture. Then the rapture happens.
263
00:09:26.625 --> 00:09:28.385 line:15%
Then there is the tribulation, three
264
00:09:28.385 --> 00:09:31.065 line:15%
and a half first years, the second three
265
00:09:31.065 --> 00:09:34.425 line:15%
and a half bad years,
the great tribulation.
266
00:09:34.425 --> 00:09:36.125 line:15%
And what's going to be
happening on the earth
267
00:09:36.125 --> 00:09:37.225 line:15%
during those seven years?
268
00:09:39.225 --> 00:09:41.525 line:15%
As far as what? Which...
269
00:09:41.525 --> 00:09:43.945 line:15%
What are the people of the
earth going to experience
270
00:09:43.945 --> 00:09:46.465 line:15%
during the tribulation when
the antichrist is here?
271
00:09:48.405 --> 00:09:49.825 line:15%
They will actually see more in front
272
00:09:49.825 --> 00:09:51.986 line:15%
of their face causing
fear that they're going
273
00:09:51.986 --> 00:09:54.186 line:15%
to start looking for more ways
274
00:09:54.186 --> 00:09:56.626 line:15%
and they'll start looking toward the gospel of Jesus Christ.
275
00:09:56.626 --> 00:09:58.726 line:15%
Although many will not receive his Lord
276
00:09:58.726 --> 00:10:01.086 line:15%
and savior, the tribulation
will be the greatest time
277
00:10:01.086 --> 00:10:02.986 line:15%
of evangelism the world has ever seen.
278
00:10:02.986 --> 00:10:04.046 line:15%
And wrath is going
279
00:10:04.046 --> 00:10:06.286 line:15%
to be poured out upon the
earth during that time.
280
00:10:06.286 --> 00:10:08.766 line:15%
During that seven years,
where are we going
281
00:10:08.766 --> 00:10:10.286 line:15%
to be if we've been raptured?
282
00:10:10.286 --> 00:10:12.046 line:15%
We'll be taken to heaven.
And what are we going
283
00:10:12.046 --> 00:10:13.126 line:15%
to do during that seven years?
284
00:10:13.126 --> 00:10:15.826 line:15%
Seven years is going
to be us getting rewarded
285
00:10:15.826 --> 00:10:17.766 line:15%
for the good deeds we did in the flesh.
286
00:10:17.766 --> 00:10:19.666 line:15%
First Corinthians talks about it
287
00:10:19.666 --> 00:10:22.306 line:15%
that we'll be up there called
the judgment seat of Christ.
288
00:10:22.306 --> 00:10:24.226 line:15%
And in that seven-year process,
289
00:10:24.226 --> 00:10:26.766 line:15%
we will be transformed from
the church into the bride.
290
00:10:26.766 --> 00:10:28.946 line:15%
Now, that is a point you
make that is really important
291
00:10:28.946 --> 00:10:31.026 line:15%
because many people today
call the church the bride
292
00:10:31.026 --> 00:10:32.206 line:15%
of Christ, but we are not.
293
00:10:32.206 --> 00:10:35.186 line:15%
No.
We get married when we go
294
00:10:35.186 --> 00:10:36.686 line:15%
to heaven. That's when we become
295
00:10:36.686 --> 00:10:37.686 line:15%
The bride of
Christ.
296
00:10:37.686 --> 00:10:39.426 line:15%
And he'll return with his bride.
297
00:10:39.426 --> 00:10:41.206 line:15%
And in fact, the interesting
thing is we think we're going
298
00:10:41.206 --> 00:10:42.446 line:15%
to come back and fight with Jesus.
299
00:10:42.446 --> 00:10:44.606 line:15%
No, he's going to tell
his bride to stand still.
300
00:10:44.606 --> 00:10:45.866 line:15%
He's going to do this all by himself.
301
00:10:46.766 --> 00:10:48.106 line:15%
And during those
seven years, we're going
302
00:10:48.106 --> 00:10:49.646 line:15%
to have the marriage feast of the lamb.
303
00:10:49.646 --> 00:10:52.286 line:15%
It's going to be quite a
time of fellowship for seven
304
00:10:52.286 --> 00:10:53.646 line:15%
Years. Seven-year honeymoon.
305
00:10:53.646 --> 00:10:56.446 line:15%
And one by one, Jesus is
going to call us by name.
306
00:10:57.526 --> 00:10:59.506 line:15%
We're going to excuse
ourself from the table.
307
00:10:59.506 --> 00:11:02.346 line:15%
We're going to stand before
the judgment seat of Christ.
308
00:11:02.346 --> 00:11:03.946 line:15%
It's really the word bema.
309
00:11:03.946 --> 00:11:05.346 line:15%
The word bema, it's not a place really
310
00:11:05.346 --> 00:11:06.786 line:15%
where we're going to be judged.
311
00:11:06.786 --> 00:11:09.006 line:15%
It's a place where we're going to
312
00:11:09.006 --> 00:11:10.006 line:15%
Be
Rewarded.
313
00:11:12.086 --> 00:11:13.186 line:15%
We're already under the blood.
314
00:11:13.186 --> 00:11:14.726 line:15%
We're not going to answer for sin.
315
00:11:14.726 --> 00:11:16.706 line:15%
If you're in heaven, your sin is covered,
316
00:11:16.706 --> 00:11:17.806 line:15%
that's already dealt with.
317
00:11:18.726 --> 00:11:20.906 line:15%
You're going to be
rewarded for what you did
318
00:11:20.906 --> 00:11:25.146 line:15%
with your levels of obedience
and your future usefulness
319
00:11:25.146 --> 00:11:27.486 line:15%
and eternity will be
determined at the beam
320
00:11:27.486 --> 00:11:29.106 line:15%
or the judgment seat of Christ.
321
00:11:29.106 --> 00:11:31.067 line:15%
That's going to be quite
an amazing seven years.
322
00:11:32.007 --> 00:11:34.607 line:15%
And then at the end of those
seven years, what happens?
323
00:11:34.607 --> 00:11:36.527 line:15%
We'll come back with Jesus as the bride.
324
00:11:36.527 --> 00:11:37.727 line:15%
And that's the day of the Lord.
325
00:11:37.727 --> 00:11:40.427 line:15%
That's the day of the Lord.
Tell us about that.
326
00:11:40.427 --> 00:11:42.007 line:15%
He comes back. It's an amazing day.
327
00:11:42.007 --> 00:11:43.707 line:15%
On that day, he will come back
328
00:11:43.707 --> 00:11:46.507 line:15%
and behind him will be people coming
329
00:11:46.507 --> 00:11:48.367 line:15%
with him and dressed in white.
330
00:11:48.367 --> 00:11:50.607 line:15%
And that will be the
thousands that have been saved
331
00:11:50.607 --> 00:11:52.087 line:15%
during the church age, and we'll be coming
332
00:11:52.087 --> 00:11:53.627 line:15%
back with him as a bride.
333
00:11:53.627 --> 00:11:55.907 line:15%
But where Jesus has usually
let others fight the
334
00:11:55.907 --> 00:11:57.007 line:15%
battle, angels fight the battle.
335
00:11:57.007 --> 00:11:59.047 line:15%
Again, it's going to be one
of those things. Just stop
336
00:11:59.047 --> 00:12:01.407 line:15%
and he's going to do this all himself.
337
00:12:01.407 --> 00:12:05.127 line:15%
So that's actually the day
of darkness that occurs.
338
00:12:05.127 --> 00:12:06.447 line:15%
It's brought out in chapter two.
339
00:12:06.447 --> 00:12:08.527 line:15%
There's two days that
the Lord talks about.
340
00:12:08.527 --> 00:12:11.547 line:15%
In two days, Satan has a
plan on how to take Israel,
341
00:12:11.547 --> 00:12:13.747 line:15%
and the first day he takes half the city
342
00:12:14.767 --> 00:12:16.007 line:15%
and they go back to go
343
00:12:16.007 --> 00:12:17.387 line:15%
to bed and come back the next morning.
344
00:12:17.387 --> 00:12:18.787 line:15%
They think if we covered half the city
345
00:12:18.787 --> 00:12:20.647 line:15%
and we took it, we're going
to take the second half.
346
00:12:20.647 --> 00:12:24.507 line:15%
And that's at the end of the
seven years, the exact day
347
00:12:24.507 --> 00:12:27.947 line:15%
that the seven years end, he
thinks he's going to have it.
348
00:12:27.947 --> 00:12:32.067 line:15%
But the night before that last day,
349
00:12:32.067 --> 00:12:33.427 line:15%
and they go to bed that
night, they're going
350
00:12:33.427 --> 00:12:34.807 line:15%
to wake up the next morning
and the world's going
351
00:12:34.807 --> 00:12:36.387 line:15%
to be covered in perpetual darkness.
352
00:12:37.227 --> 00:12:40.167 line:15%
One thing you say that
I just love, I mean,
353
00:12:40.167 --> 00:12:42.827 line:15%
I could see it, is all the
lights are going to go out.
354
00:12:42.827 --> 00:12:45.187 line:15%
Yes. - And just like in the theater,
355
00:12:45.187 --> 00:12:47.407 line:15%
the spotlight comes on,
you only see one thing
356
00:12:47.407 --> 00:12:48.847 line:15%
because all the lights are out.
357
00:12:48.847 --> 00:12:50.107 line:15%
Yes.
God's going to put out
358
00:12:50.107 --> 00:12:51.267 line:15%
all the lights in the universe.
359
00:12:51.267 --> 00:12:55.427 line:15%
Right. It's called
the valley of decision.
360
00:12:55.427 --> 00:12:57.647 line:15%
And in that valley of
decision, God's going
361
00:12:57.647 --> 00:12:59.747 line:15%
to give the whole earth 24 more hours
362
00:12:59.747 --> 00:13:01.647 line:15%
to receive Jesus as Lord and Savior.
363
00:13:01.647 --> 00:13:04.347 line:15%
It's going to be the place
where they have to decide.
364
00:13:04.347 --> 00:13:06.547 line:15%
And when you're surrounded
by perpetual darkness
365
00:13:06.547 --> 00:13:07.907 line:15%
where you can't see a flashlight,
366
00:13:07.907 --> 00:13:11.028 line:15%
you can't see a search light,
you can't see any light
367
00:13:11.028 --> 00:13:14.268 line:15%
because this is a supernatural
darkness like the day Jesus
368
00:13:14.268 --> 00:13:17.328 line:15%
died on the cross and that
supernatural darkness came
369
00:13:17.328 --> 00:13:19.708 line:15%
where you couldn't see your
hand in front of your face,
370
00:13:19.708 --> 00:13:23.088 line:15%
the entire world's going
to have to sit and think.
371
00:13:23.088 --> 00:13:24.488 line:15%
If you do nothing but think, you're going
372
00:13:24.488 --> 00:13:25.948 line:15%
to have to make a decision.
373
00:13:25.948 --> 00:13:27.508 line:15%
And that's why it's called
the Valley of Decision,
374
00:13:27.508 --> 00:13:29.188 line:15%
the Valley of Jehoshaphat. Wow.
375
00:13:29.188 --> 00:13:30.448 line:15%
That is so much mercy.
376
00:13:30.448 --> 00:13:33.788 line:15%
Yes. And at the end of
that period, all of a sudden,
377
00:13:33.788 --> 00:13:36.648 line:15%
the only thing that'll penetrate supernatural darkness is
378
00:13:36.648 --> 00:13:38.928 line:15%
supernatural light, and
Jesus is going to come back
379
00:13:38.928 --> 00:13:41.248 line:15%
as lightning from the east to the west.
380
00:13:41.248 --> 00:13:42.828 line:15%
And that's brought out in Matthew 24. And
381
00:13:42.828 --> 00:13:43.828 line:15%
The whole world
Will see.
382
00:13:43.828 --> 00:13:46.088 line:15%
The whole world will see
him. All will hit their knees
383
00:13:46.088 --> 00:13:48.588 line:15%
and everyone's going to
confess Jesus is Lord,
384
00:13:48.588 --> 00:13:50.268 line:15%
but for most of them,
it's going to be too late.
385
00:13:50.268 --> 00:13:51.348 line:15%
Well, I have a question that I
386
00:13:51.348 --> 00:13:52.488 line:15%
think viewers are going to ask.
387
00:13:53.468 --> 00:13:56.508 line:15%
What happens to people who get
saved during the tribulation?
388
00:13:56.508 --> 00:13:57.908 line:15%
They get to go on into the millennium,
389
00:13:58.968 --> 00:14:01.568 line:15%
and they're on the earth.
390
00:14:01.568 --> 00:14:03.368 line:15%
And so the millennium
is going to be made up
391
00:14:03.368 --> 00:14:05.368 line:15%
of people in resurrection bodies
392
00:14:05.368 --> 00:14:07.148 line:15%
and people in natural bodies.
393
00:14:07.148 --> 00:14:08.708 line:15%
And the people in resurrection bodies came
394
00:14:08.708 --> 00:14:10.348 line:15%
back as the bride of Christ. That would
395
00:14:10.348 --> 00:14:11.848 line:15%
Be those that were in heaven.
396
00:14:11.848 --> 00:14:15.048 line:15%
And the ones that had been
saved during the tribulation
397
00:14:15.048 --> 00:14:18.968 line:15%
and did not die will go
on into the millennium.
398
00:14:20.528 --> 00:14:23.648 line:15%
But there is a division point the day
399
00:14:23.648 --> 00:14:25.588 line:15%
that Jesus Christ comes back.
400
00:14:25.588 --> 00:14:28.788 line:15%
Wait, wait, wait. So
during the millennial reign,
401
00:14:28.788 --> 00:14:30.928 line:15%
they're going to be the
church who came back
402
00:14:30.928 --> 00:14:33.208 line:15%
with Jesus in resurrection bodies.
403
00:14:33.208 --> 00:14:35.408 line:15%
They're going to be here,
and actually they'll be part
404
00:14:35.408 --> 00:14:36.748 line:15%
of Jesus' administration.
405
00:14:36.748 --> 00:14:38.148 line:15%
And there'll be saved people.
406
00:14:38.148 --> 00:14:40.328 line:15%
And then there'll be
regular people also.
407
00:14:40.328 --> 00:14:42.368 line:15%
They got saved during the tribulation.
408
00:14:42.368 --> 00:14:44.408 line:15%
Okay.
But those people who came
409
00:14:44.408 --> 00:14:46.748 line:15%
through the tribulation
are going to have children,
410
00:14:48.128 --> 00:14:50.748 line:15%
and those children are going
to have to give their lives
411
00:14:50.748 --> 00:14:54.269 line:15%
to Jesus during the
millennium, and many will not.
412
00:14:54.269 --> 00:14:56.129 line:15%
Pastor Bob, how is that possible?
413
00:14:57.049 --> 00:14:59.889 line:15%
I brought it out. Perfect environment is not man's answer,
414
00:14:59.889 --> 00:15:01.589 line:15%
and we're always trying to
make perfect environment.
415
00:15:01.589 --> 00:15:03.829 line:15%
Every Republican, Democrat, we're going
416
00:15:03.829 --> 00:15:05.109 line:15%
to make a perfect environment,
417
00:15:05.109 --> 00:15:06.889 line:15%
and then people be kind to each other.
418
00:15:06.889 --> 00:15:08.989 line:15%
No, it has to start
from the inside. Let me
419
00:15:08.989 --> 00:15:09.989 line:15%
Think about it.
420
00:15:09.989 --> 00:15:12.489 line:15%
Jesus is ruling from Jerusalem, correct?
421
00:15:12.489 --> 00:15:15.789 line:15%
The perfect government that the world has always longed for,
422
00:15:15.789 --> 00:15:19.629 line:15%
and people with Jesus right
there may not receive him.
423
00:15:19.629 --> 00:15:20.789 line:15%
I know. I
Mean,
424
00:15:20.789 --> 00:15:21.789 line:15%
That's
Just amazing.
425
00:15:21.789 --> 00:15:23.349 line:15%
It happened during his lifetime. How many people walked
426
00:15:23.349 --> 00:15:25.649 line:15%
away from him healing multitudes and didn't accept him?
427
00:15:25.649 --> 00:15:28.149 line:15%
How many people lost him
on the cross and yelled
428
00:15:28.149 --> 00:15:30.109 line:15%
and all that, and had seen his meetings?
429
00:15:30.969 --> 00:15:32.469 line:15%
Again, they saw it.
430
00:15:32.469 --> 00:15:35.329 line:15%
But during that time period,
during the millennium,
431
00:15:35.329 --> 00:15:36.609 line:15%
there's going to be people, and at the end
432
00:15:36.609 --> 00:15:39.349 line:15%
of the millennium, Satan will
be released for just a season.
433
00:15:40.249 --> 00:15:42.409 line:15%
Before we get there,
what's the world going
434
00:15:42.409 --> 00:15:44.029 line:15%
to be like during the millennium?
435
00:15:44.029 --> 00:15:46.209 line:15%
It's going to be perfect with problems,
436
00:15:46.209 --> 00:15:48.569 line:15%
and the perfectness
comes from Jesus' reign
437
00:15:48.569 --> 00:15:50.249 line:15%
and the Holy Spirit's rule.
438
00:15:50.249 --> 00:15:51.769 line:15%
The problems are going to come from people
439
00:15:51.769 --> 00:15:54.929 line:15%
who came from the tribulation, the children
440
00:15:54.929 --> 00:15:57.989 line:15%
that were born from people of the tribulation,
441
00:15:57.989 --> 00:15:59.949 line:15%
that were born during the millennium
442
00:15:59.949 --> 00:16:02.349 line:15%
and do not receive Jesus as savior. I
443
00:16:02.349 --> 00:16:05.809 line:15%
Have never heard anybody
say perfect with problems.
444
00:16:05.809 --> 00:16:08.069 line:15%
I love that. Is there
going to be sickness?
445
00:16:09.409 --> 00:16:11.249 line:15%
No, I don't believe there
can be any sickness at all.
446
00:16:11.249 --> 00:16:13.249 line:15%
I think everything that
was covered under sin,
447
00:16:13.249 --> 00:16:16.549 line:15%
when Jesus comes back as the
conqueror of sin, the only sin
448
00:16:16.549 --> 00:16:18.489 line:15%
that's going to be present
will be internally with
449
00:16:18.489 --> 00:16:21.449 line:15%
inside the people who come
through that time period
450
00:16:21.449 --> 00:16:23.889 line:15%
and during the millennium,
have an opportunity
451
00:16:23.889 --> 00:16:25.469 line:15%
to receive him but don't.
452
00:16:25.469 --> 00:16:28.310 line:15%
When Satan is removed at
the end of the tribulation,
453
00:16:28.310 --> 00:16:30.070 line:15%
and people often say, why would God release - Are
454
00:16:30.070 --> 00:16:31.370 line:15%
People going to die
during the millennium?
455
00:16:34.690 --> 00:16:36.650 line:15%
Probably those that came...
456
00:16:36.650 --> 00:16:38.330 line:15%
No, because death will be removed.
457
00:16:38.330 --> 00:16:39.590 line:15%
So I don't think there's going to be
458
00:16:39.590 --> 00:16:40.690 line:15%
any death during - So people are
459
00:16:40.690 --> 00:16:41.690 line:15%
Going to live a long time.
460
00:16:41.690 --> 00:16:43.990 line:15%
Oh, yeah. - And then at the
end of the millennial reign
461
00:16:44.950 --> 00:16:46.250 line:15%
is when the devil's released.
462
00:16:46.250 --> 00:16:49.910 line:15%
For a season. And it's interesting too,
463
00:16:49.910 --> 00:16:52.670 line:15%
because during the millennium, or pardon me,
464
00:16:52.670 --> 00:16:56.230 line:15%
before that time even, fallen angels
465
00:16:56.230 --> 00:16:58.730 line:15%
during the tribulation will be released.
466
00:16:58.730 --> 00:16:59.610 line:15%
People have often asked me
467
00:16:59.610 --> 00:17:00.770 line:15%
this. Well, if they're - During the
468
00:17:00.770 --> 00:17:01.603 line:15%
Tribulation. During
469
00:17:01.603 --> 00:17:02.830 line:15%
The tribulation.
470
00:17:02.830 --> 00:17:06.150 line:15%
But Satan himself will be
removed allowed to be free
471
00:17:07.050 --> 00:17:08.810 line:15%
at the very end of the millennium,
472
00:17:08.810 --> 00:17:12.170 line:15%
and he'll round up all
these people that are rebels
473
00:17:12.170 --> 00:17:13.130 line:15%
and all that, and they're going to come
474
00:17:13.130 --> 00:17:14.710 line:15%
against him at one last time.
475
00:17:14.710 --> 00:17:15.970 line:15%
And this time, there's
not going to be a day
476
00:17:15.970 --> 00:17:17.390 line:15%
of darkness or anything.
477
00:17:17.390 --> 00:17:19.910 line:15%
God's just going to come
and that's it. It's over.
478
00:17:19.910 --> 00:17:21.710 line:15%
And the Bible says
it's for a short season.
479
00:17:21.710 --> 00:17:22.710 line:15%
Yes, for a short
Season.
480
00:17:22.710 --> 00:17:23.543 line:15%
But we don't know
How long that
481
00:17:23.543 --> 00:17:24.330 line:15%
Is.
482
00:17:24.330 --> 00:17:28.590 line:15%
Right. People have often
asked, "Why does God release
483
00:17:28.590 --> 00:17:31.270 line:15%
fallen angels during the tribulation
484
00:17:31.270 --> 00:17:34.510 line:15%
who caused terrible problems?"
They're released from tartar
485
00:17:34.510 --> 00:17:35.570 line:15%
is where they are, and they
486
00:17:35.570 --> 00:17:36.990 line:15%
come and they release during that time.
487
00:17:36.990 --> 00:17:40.190 line:15%
And why does God release
Satan toward the end
488
00:17:40.190 --> 00:17:43.230 line:15%
of the millennium to prove
he never will change?
489
00:17:44.110 --> 00:17:45.630 line:15%
To prove that the
devil will never change?
490
00:17:45.630 --> 00:17:47.730 line:15%
He'll never change. Ever.
God is just.
491
00:17:47.730 --> 00:17:51.010 line:15%
I know, very just.
I just had George
492
00:17:51.010 --> 00:17:54.330 line:15%
and Terri Pearsons on my program with me,
493
00:17:54.330 --> 00:17:56.390 line:15%
and Terry said, "You have
to remember God is a judge
494
00:17:57.530 --> 00:17:58.730 line:15%
and things that operate by law,
495
00:17:59.570 --> 00:18:01.210 line:15%
and God is always going to use law.
496
00:18:01.210 --> 00:18:05.051 line:15%
He's going to always give
a verdict based on facts.
497
00:18:05.051 --> 00:18:07.611 line:15%
And the ultimate judgment of
the devil is going to be...
498
00:18:07.611 --> 00:18:11.311 line:15%
God's going to prove, Hey,
devil, you are a criminal.
499
00:18:11.311 --> 00:18:15.291 line:15%
There's - Going to be so much evidence. Wow, Pastor Bob.
500
00:18:16.651 --> 00:18:18.151 line:15%
There's some amazing times ahead.
501
00:18:18.151 --> 00:18:19.751 line:15%
And then at the end of the millennium
502
00:18:20.691 --> 00:18:23.851 line:15%
is when the great white throne
judgment takes place at all
503
00:18:23.851 --> 00:18:28.851 line:15%
sinners, all demons, all fallen angels.
504
00:18:29.071 --> 00:18:31.491 line:15%
Satan himself will stand there,
505
00:18:31.491 --> 00:18:32.931 line:15%
and they're all going to
fall back on their works.
506
00:18:32.931 --> 00:18:34.071 line:15%
Even after all that time,
507
00:18:34.071 --> 00:18:35.391 line:15%
they're still going to
fall back on their works.
508
00:18:35.391 --> 00:18:37.111 line:15%
The book of works will be opened up,
509
00:18:37.111 --> 00:18:38.531 line:15%
and God's going to say,
"Yeah, your name's here
510
00:18:38.531 --> 00:18:40.071 line:15%
and all those wonderful words,
511
00:18:40.071 --> 00:18:41.791 line:15%
but your name isn't found
in the book of life."
512
00:18:42.631 --> 00:18:43.771 line:15%
And they'll try to fall back on all
513
00:18:43.771 --> 00:18:44.891 line:15%
the good things they did in life.
514
00:18:44.891 --> 00:18:46.791 line:15%
There's a book of works in heaven
515
00:18:46.791 --> 00:18:48.411 line:15%
where all these things are recorded,
516
00:18:48.411 --> 00:18:50.151 line:15%
and you can argue all you want
to, and God'll probably say
517
00:18:50.151 --> 00:18:52.031 line:15%
yes, but you still didn't...
518
00:18:52.031 --> 00:18:53.351 line:15%
That's not what's going
to get you in here.
519
00:18:53.351 --> 00:18:55.031 line:15%
Your name has to be
found written in the book
520
00:18:55.031 --> 00:18:56.031 line:15%
Of life.
521
00:18:56.031 --> 00:18:57.211 line:15%
And so for people that are watching,
522
00:18:57.211 --> 00:18:59.191 line:15%
how do you get your name
in the book of life?
523
00:18:59.191 --> 00:19:01.491 line:15%
You accept Jesus Christ
as Lord and Savior.
524
00:19:01.491 --> 00:19:03.691 line:15%
And how do you do that? - Well, you open up your heart.
525
00:19:03.691 --> 00:19:05.691 line:15%
Jesus talked about it.
Paul talked about it.
526
00:19:05.691 --> 00:19:08.491 line:15%
Others talked about it.
As many as received him,
527
00:19:08.491 --> 00:19:10.691 line:15%
did them he gave power to
become the sons of God.
528
00:19:10.691 --> 00:19:12.651 line:15%
It's the simple thing
of opening up your heart
529
00:19:12.651 --> 00:19:14.871 line:15%
and saying, Father, I received Jesus
530
00:19:14.871 --> 00:19:16.411 line:15%
as the Lord and Savior of my life.
531
00:19:16.411 --> 00:19:17.951 line:15%
I don't understand squat,
532
00:19:17.951 --> 00:19:20.931 line:15%
but I do understand I
need to start right here.
533
00:19:20.931 --> 00:19:23.231 line:15%
Does a baby understand being born? No.
534
00:19:23.231 --> 00:19:25.071 line:15%
And probably a brand new
Christian doesn't understand
535
00:19:25.071 --> 00:19:26.931 line:15%
anything happening to him,
but the older he gets,
536
00:19:26.931 --> 00:19:29.911 line:15%
he looks back on it and can
begin to see righteousness.
537
00:19:30.811 --> 00:19:33.651 line:15%
The Holy Spirit moved into me.
I became the temple of God.
538
00:19:33.651 --> 00:19:36.691 line:15%
I mean, all these things we
take for granted took us years
539
00:19:36.691 --> 00:19:38.671 line:15%
to come around and find out about it.
540
00:19:38.671 --> 00:19:41.892 line:15%
But when Bobby got saved
at five years old at Beams
541
00:19:41.892 --> 00:19:44.091 line:15%
of Light Tabernacle here at Tulsa
542
00:19:44.091 --> 00:19:45.451 line:15%
at Vacation Bible School - You're
543
00:19:45.451 --> 00:19:46.451 line:15%
Talking about yourself?
544
00:19:46.451 --> 00:19:48.612 line:15%
Yeah. - You got saved at Vacation Bible School?
545
00:19:48.612 --> 00:19:51.572 line:15%
Yes. At five years
old, my sister was four,
546
00:19:51.572 --> 00:19:52.952 line:15%
and David Shibley was three.
547
00:19:52.952 --> 00:19:54.492 line:15%
We were all there at the same time.
548
00:19:54.492 --> 00:19:55.992 line:15%
And he says, "Don't tell
me a three-year-old can't
549
00:19:55.992 --> 00:19:57.492 line:15%
get born again." I did.
550
00:19:57.492 --> 00:19:59.032 line:15%
And I mean, he's got a
missions organization,
551
00:19:59.032 --> 00:20:00.352 line:15%
so it's incredible right now.
552
00:20:00.352 --> 00:20:02.332 line:15%
Well, I was five and I was really saved.
553
00:20:02.332 --> 00:20:06.312 line:15%
Yeah, I was too, but I
didn't know what happened.
554
00:20:06.312 --> 00:20:07.772 line:15%
You asked me to explain righteousness.
555
00:20:07.772 --> 00:20:09.832 line:15%
I couldn't explain anything. I just knew.
556
00:20:09.832 --> 00:20:11.792 line:15%
I came home and told my mom
and dad, and they hugged me
557
00:20:11.792 --> 00:20:14.312 line:15%
and talked about the good things.
558
00:20:14.312 --> 00:20:16.012 line:15%
And from that time on, I just had a desire
559
00:20:16.012 --> 00:20:17.532 line:15%
to serve God stronger than ever.
560
00:20:19.192 --> 00:20:20.512 line:15%
Well, you have done it very well.
561
00:20:20.512 --> 00:20:22.972 line:15%
Well, you have too.
Thank you. Let's keep it up.
562
00:20:22.972 --> 00:20:25.932 line:15%
Yeah.
This is just amazing.
563
00:20:25.932 --> 00:20:27.992 line:15%
And of course, we're really
talking about a lot of
564
00:20:27.992 --> 00:20:29.752 line:15%
what is in your book
called The Day of the Lord.
565
00:20:29.752 --> 00:20:32.092 line:15%
Now, this book is amazing.
566
00:20:32.092 --> 00:20:34.252 line:15%
My friends, you need to understand the day of the Lord.
567
00:20:34.252 --> 00:20:38.512 line:15%
That is a Old Testament and
New Testament expression.
568
00:20:38.512 --> 00:20:40.372 line:15%
It's not the rapture. The Day
569
00:20:40.372 --> 00:20:43.892 line:15%
of the Lord is really the
very end at the end of the
570
00:20:43.892 --> 00:20:44.892 line:15%
Treatment.
571
00:20:44.892 --> 00:20:46.392 line:15%
He comes back to be the king of the world.
572
00:20:46.392 --> 00:20:48.392 line:15%
And when he comes, the Book
573
00:20:48.392 --> 00:20:51.352 line:15%
of Thessalonians says he is going to destroy the antichrist
574
00:20:51.352 --> 00:20:53.072 line:15%
with a word of his mouth.
575
00:20:53.072 --> 00:20:56.412 line:15%
I mean, with one word, he's
going to burn the antichrist
576
00:20:56.412 --> 00:20:59.292 line:15%
to a crisp, just he's gone.
577
00:20:59.292 --> 00:21:00.992 line:15%
I think the most interesting
thing that came out
578
00:21:00.992 --> 00:21:05.312 line:15%
of this is that at the end of
the tribulation, he does that,
579
00:21:05.312 --> 00:21:08.232 line:15%
but he gives them a day with
darkness to come around.
580
00:21:08.232 --> 00:21:10.152 line:15%
At the end of the millennium,
God just comes back
581
00:21:10.152 --> 00:21:14.692 line:15%
and stops at no chance, no
second chance, whatever.
582
00:21:14.692 --> 00:21:17.492 line:15%
He just comes back in a
split second, destroys all
583
00:21:17.492 --> 00:21:19.012 line:15%
of the unbelievers on the earth.
584
00:21:19.012 --> 00:21:20.192 line:15%
And then they go from straight there
585
00:21:20.192 --> 00:21:21.572 line:15%
to the great white throne judgment.
586
00:21:21.572 --> 00:21:23.452 line:15%
Now, in this series, so far,
587
00:21:23.452 --> 00:21:25.193 line:15%
we haven't talked much
about the antichrist.
588
00:21:25.193 --> 00:21:26.792 line:15%
I think when we come back tomorrow,
589
00:21:26.792 --> 00:21:28.993 line:15%
we should dive a little
deeper into the tribulation,
590
00:21:28.993 --> 00:21:30.513 line:15%
and I want to talk a little
bit about the antichrist.
591
00:21:30.513 --> 00:21:33.373 line:15%
Sure. - Wow, this has really been good.
592
00:21:33.373 --> 00:21:34.796 line:15%
We'll be back in just a moment,
593
00:21:34.796 --> 00:21:36.703 line:15%
and I'm going to pray with you.
594
00:21:44.193 --> 00:21:46.533 line:15%
This is Rick Renner,
and somebody has asked,
595
00:21:46.533 --> 00:21:48.113 line:15%
"What do we do about anxiety
596
00:21:48.113 --> 00:21:52.033 line:15%
and overthinking?" Well,
when I was a younger man, I
597
00:21:52.033 --> 00:21:55.853 line:15%
had a lot of anxiety, and
I worried about everything.
598
00:21:55.853 --> 00:21:59.853 line:15%
I'm a thinker, and I
overthought everything.
599
00:21:59.853 --> 00:22:04.453 line:15%
But one day, I came to Philippians 4:6,
600
00:22:04.453 --> 00:22:06.073 line:15%
which says, "Be careful
601
00:22:06.073 --> 00:22:08.913 line:15%
for nothing." It literally
means don't worry
602
00:22:08.913 --> 00:22:11.333 line:15%
and don't worry about anything at all,
603
00:22:11.333 --> 00:22:14.113 line:15%
but instead, in everything.
604
00:22:14.113 --> 00:22:17.093 line:15%
By prayer and supplication
with thanksgiving,
605
00:22:17.093 --> 00:22:19.593 line:15%
let your request be made known unto God.
606
00:22:19.593 --> 00:22:23.013 line:15%
And here's the promise in verse 7, "And the peace of God
607
00:22:23.013 --> 00:22:26.593 line:15%
that passes all understanding
will keep your hearts
608
00:22:26.593 --> 00:22:30.973 line:15%
and minds through Christ Jesus." So rather than thinking
609
00:22:30.973 --> 00:22:33.233 line:15%
and thinking and
overthinking every problem,
610
00:22:33.233 --> 00:22:35.593 line:15%
which is not going to change anything,
611
00:22:35.593 --> 00:22:39.193 line:15%
once you've thought about it,
then you need to stop worrying
612
00:22:39.193 --> 00:22:42.353 line:15%
and you need to begin to pray
and thank God for the answer.
613
00:22:42.353 --> 00:22:46.733 line:15%
And these verses promise that
God's peace will flood you
614
00:22:46.733 --> 00:22:49.373 line:15%
and will protect your
mind and your emotions.
615
00:22:50.893 --> 00:22:53.553 line:15%
Fear of future events
often comes from biblical
616
00:22:53.553 --> 00:22:56.973 line:15%
illiteracy, but you don't
have to stay trapped there.
617
00:22:56.973 --> 00:22:59.813 line:15%
In the outpouring of the
Holy Spirit in the last days,
618
00:22:59.813 --> 00:23:02.713 line:15%
Rick Renner and guest Bob
Yandian turned to scripture
619
00:23:02.713 --> 00:23:05.774 line:15%
to explain key end time
events like the rapture,
620
00:23:05.774 --> 00:23:09.454 line:15%
the marriage feast of the
lamb, the tribulation,
621
00:23:09.454 --> 00:23:11.214 line:15%

antichrist's identity,

This is Rick Renner,
and my friend, I want
643
00:24:08.094 --> 00:24:10.474 line:15%
to say thank you for everything you do
644
00:24:10.474 --> 00:24:13.574 line:15%
to help us fulfill the
call of God on our lives.
645
00:24:13.574 --> 00:24:16.214 line:15%
In Proverbs 10:21, it says, "The lips
646
00:24:16.214 --> 00:24:19.654 line:15%
of the righteous feed
many." And that's my verse.
647
00:24:19.654 --> 00:24:22.634 line:15%
"I know that God has
called me to feed as many
648
00:24:22.634 --> 00:24:27.234 line:15%
as possible the wonderful
trusted teaching of the Bible.
649
00:24:27.234 --> 00:24:29.374 line:15%
And if you're a partner,
I want to tell you
650
00:24:30.214 --> 00:24:32.594 line:15%
that we have given away hundreds
651
00:24:32.594 --> 00:24:36.595 line:15%
and thousands of digital free downloads.
652
00:24:36.595 --> 00:24:39.914 line:15%
People write to us from
all over the planet,
653
00:24:39.914 --> 00:24:42.355 line:15%
and when they request
something that is digital,
654
00:24:42.355 --> 00:24:43.995 line:15%
we can get it to them right away.
655
00:24:44.915 --> 00:24:46.635 line:15%
And because of you, and
656
00:24:46.635 --> 00:24:48.455 line:15%
because of the gifts that you give,
657
00:24:48.455 --> 00:24:52.295 line:15%
we're taking the life transforming power of God's word
658
00:24:52.295 --> 00:24:55.055 line:15%
to people all over the planet.
659
00:24:55.055 --> 00:24:57.235 line:15%
I'm talking about people
that are really crying out
660
00:24:57.235 --> 00:24:59.135 line:15%
and asking for answers,
661
00:24:59.135 --> 00:25:01.215 line:15%
and digitally, we are sending them lots
662
00:25:01.215 --> 00:25:04.835 line:15%
and lots of free materials,
hundreds and thousands,
663
00:25:04.835 --> 00:25:05.975 line:15%
and you're a part of that.
664
00:25:06.835 --> 00:25:08.955 line:15%
So I just wanted to say thank you.
665
00:25:08.955 --> 00:25:11.015 line:15%
And if you're not a partner
with our ministry yet,
666
00:25:11.015 --> 00:25:13.755 line:15%
we need you because the job is so big,
667
00:25:13.755 --> 00:25:16.355 line:15%
and if you're blessed by
our ministry, we ask you
668
00:25:16.355 --> 00:25:18.155 line:15%
to join our partner family
669
00:25:18.155 --> 00:25:21.215 line:15%
and help us take the trusted
teaching of the Bible
670
00:25:21.215 --> 00:25:22.315 line:15%
to the ends of the earth.
671
00:25:26.355 --> 00:25:29.095 line:15%
Well, this has really been good today, me
672
00:25:29.095 --> 00:25:31.455 line:15%
and Pastor Bob Yandian. I'm so glad you're with me.
673
00:25:31.455 --> 00:25:33.855 line:15%
I'm so glad to be here.
42 years of friendship.
674
00:25:33.855 --> 00:25:35.635 line:15%
That's true.
We really know each other.
675
00:25:35.635 --> 00:25:37.595 line:15%
We have loved each other
and prayed for each other
676
00:25:37.595 --> 00:25:40.175 line:15%
and supported each other for 42 years.
677
00:25:40.175 --> 00:25:42.315 line:15%
Yeah. And I'm so glad
that you're with me today
678
00:25:42.315 --> 00:25:45.515 line:15%
and that we're talking about your book, The Day of the Lord.
679
00:25:45.515 --> 00:25:49.035 line:15%
And the subtitle says, "What
the Book of Joel reveals,
680
00:25:49.035 --> 00:25:51.595 line:15%
and it really does, about the last days
681
00:25:51.595 --> 00:25:53.515 line:15%
and the outpouring of the Spirit.
682
00:25:53.515 --> 00:25:56.475 line:15%
And we're doing a series this
week about the outpouring
683
00:25:56.475 --> 00:25:59.295 line:15%
of the Holy Spirit in the last days.
684
00:25:59.295 --> 00:26:01.295 line:15%
And if you'd like to order
any of these resources,
685
00:26:01.295 --> 00:26:03.615 line:15%
just go online or give us a call
686
00:26:03.615 --> 00:26:06.015 line:15%
and always let us know
how to pray for you.
687
00:26:06.015 --> 00:26:08.335 line:15%
I always end every program telling you
688
00:26:08.335 --> 00:26:09.535 line:15%
that because I mean it.
689
00:26:09.535 --> 00:26:11.255 line:15%
We want to pray for you.
690
00:26:12.175 --> 00:26:13.295 line:15%
So if you'll call that number
691
00:26:13.295 --> 00:26:16.595 line:15%
or send us an email, the
moment we hear from you,
692
00:26:16.595 --> 00:26:17.836 line:15%
we're going to release our faith.
693
00:26:17.836 --> 00:26:19.556 line:15%
Jesus is going to hear us.
694
00:26:19.556 --> 00:26:22.035 line:15%
That's what Jeremiah 33:3 says.
695
00:26:22.035 --> 00:26:23.935 line:15%
He's going to act and he's going
696
00:26:23.935 --> 00:26:26.156 line:15%
to do something great and mighty for you.
697
00:26:26.156 --> 00:26:27.376 line:15%
I say there's a miracle
698
00:26:27.376 --> 00:26:30.476 line:15%
with your name on it
waiting for you right now.
699
00:26:30.476 --> 00:26:32.536 line:15%
So let us know how to pray for you,
700
00:26:32.536 --> 00:26:33.716 line:15%
and I want to pray for you right
701
00:26:33.716 --> 00:26:35.036 line:15%
now. Pastor Bob, let's pray.
702
00:26:35.036 --> 00:26:37.796 line:15%
Okay. - Father, we thank you
that we can be together, me
703
00:26:37.796 --> 00:26:38.876 line:15%
and Pastor Bob, today.
704
00:26:38.876 --> 00:26:41.696 line:15%
What a privilege. We
thank you for every person
705
00:26:41.696 --> 00:26:45.416 line:15%
that has pulled up a seat
to join us at this table
706
00:26:45.416 --> 00:26:46.436 line:15%
as we discover
707
00:26:47.476 --> 00:26:49.896 line:15%
and discuss what's going to
happen at the end of the age
708
00:26:49.896 --> 00:26:52.016 line:15%
and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit.
709
00:26:52.016 --> 00:26:54.796 line:15%
Lord, you do not want
us to be in darkness.
710
00:26:54.796 --> 00:26:56.956 line:15%
You want us to know what is coming.
711
00:26:56.956 --> 00:26:59.856 line:15%
We thank you that you so clearly told us
712
00:26:59.856 --> 00:27:01.056 line:15%
we don't have to live in fear.
713
00:27:01.056 --> 00:27:05.436 line:15%
We can have unshakeable hope
even in these last days.
714
00:27:05.436 --> 00:27:09.656 line:15%
And we thank you for this
in the name of Jesus. Amen.
715
00:27:09.656 --> 00:27:12.956 line:15%
Amen. - Well, tomorrow when
we come back, I think we need
716
00:27:12.956 --> 00:27:15.656 line:15%
to talk a little bit about the antichrist.
717
00:27:15.656 --> 00:27:18.876 line:15%
Who is he? Will we know who
he is? What is he going to do?
718
00:27:19.996 --> 00:27:22.456 line:15%
It's going to really be good.
That's tomorrow's episode.
719
00:27:22.456 --> 00:27:25.956 line:15%
But until then, remember that Ecclesiastes 8:4 says
720
00:27:25.956 --> 00:27:28.836 line:15%
"Where the word of a king is, there is power."
721
00:27:29.736 --> 00:27:31.936 line:15%
If you've never received
Jesus as your savior
722
00:27:31.936 --> 00:27:34.196 line:15%
and Lord, now is the time for you
723
00:27:34.196 --> 00:27:38.496 line:15%
to experience a new life
Jesus has to give you.
724
00:27:38.496 --> 00:27:41.696 line:15%
Pray this prayer with me right now.
725
00:27:41.696 --> 00:27:44.276 line:15%
Lord, I repent of my sin
726
00:27:44.276 --> 00:27:47.896 line:15%
and receive you as my savior and Lord.
727
00:27:47.896 --> 00:27:52.696 line:15%
Wash away my sin and
make me completely new.
728
00:27:52.696 --> 00:27:56.396 line:15%
I thank you that my sin is removed
729
00:27:56.396 --> 00:28:00.917 line:15%
and Satan no longer has any
right to lay claim on me.
730
00:28:02.037 --> 00:28:05.917 line:15%
I faithfully promise that
I will serve you as my Lord
731
00:28:05.917 --> 00:28:07.417 line:15%
for the rest of my life.
732
00:28:08.537 --> 00:28:09.537 line:15%
Amen.
733
00:28:11.197 --> 00:28:13.377 line:15%
