WEBVTT 01:58.400 --> 02:01.280 and turn in your Bibles to Revelation chapter 15. 02:04.500 --> 02:06.500 Revelation chapter 15 02:22.100 --> 02:27.860 Just follow along silently as we read Revelation chapter 15, the Bible reads, 02:27.860 --> 02:31.180 And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvelous, 02:31.180 --> 02:36.020 Seven angels having the seven, having the seven last plagues. 02:38.400 --> 02:41.440 For in them is filled up the wrath of God. 02:41.440 --> 02:44.240 And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire, 02:44.240 --> 02:46.480 and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, 02:46.480 --> 02:48.480 and over his image, and over his mark, 02:48.480 --> 02:50.960 and over the number of his name, 02:50.960 --> 02:55.040 stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God. 02:55.040 --> 02:57.440 And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, 02:57.440 --> 02:58.960 and the song of the Lamb, saying, 02:58.960 --> 03:02.000 Great and marvelous are thy works, Lord God Almighty. 03:02.000 --> 03:05.000 Just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints. 03:05.400 --> 03:09.240 Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? 03:09.240 --> 03:14.680 For thou art only holy, for all the nations shall come and worship before 03:14.680 --> 03:17.800 thee, for thy judgments are made manifest. 03:17.800 --> 03:21.240 And after that I looked, and behold the temple of the tabernacle of the 03:21.240 --> 03:25.800 testimony in heaven was opened. And the seven angels came out of the 03:25.800 --> 03:28.680 temple, having the seven plagues clothed in pure 03:28.680 --> 03:32.700 and white linen, and having their breasts girded with golden girdles. 03:33.100 --> 03:39.420 and one of the four beasts gave unto the seven angels seven golden vials full of the wrath of God 03:39.420 --> 03:44.460 who liveth forever and ever. And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God 03:44.460 --> 03:49.580 and from his power and no man was able to enter into the temple till the seven plagues of the 03:49.580 --> 03:54.060 seven angels were fulfilled." Brother Bill, can you preface this? 03:58.200 --> 03:59.760 sending seeds for planting on soul winning. 03:59.760 --> 04:01.500 Go faster with the Holy Ghost. 04:01.500 --> 04:02.700 I'm gonna preach an edifying sermon, 04:02.700 --> 04:04.000 help us to pay attention. 04:04.000 --> 04:06.140 Be with us the rest of the day here at church. 04:06.140 --> 04:07.140 Peace, love, and peace. 04:24.600 --> 04:30.320 The subject matter here is the seven angels with the seven plagues. 04:30.320 --> 04:36.400 And this is kind of like a segue into the wrath of God for this second half of the telling 04:36.400 --> 04:37.680 of Revelation. 04:37.680 --> 04:38.680 So remember we... 04:38.900 --> 04:50.900 We flipped at chapter 12, it's basically the retelling, and then in chapter 13 it launches us right into the tribulation, and then into the great tribulation. 04:50.900 --> 04:58.900 And in chapter 14, just to recap where we were last time, was the 144,000 are brought back up again. 04:58.900 --> 05:02.600 And that kind of proves really that it does flip. 05:02.700 --> 05:07.540 because chapter 7 is where they're mentioned the first time and we went into that and 05:08.740 --> 05:11.980 they sung the song before the throne the 05:13.660 --> 05:15.400 144,000 and 05:15.400 --> 05:17.400 It's a song that nobody else 05:17.620 --> 05:20.880 Is able to know and they're redeemed from the earth. I went through that 05:22.400 --> 05:26.760 that the 144,000 could not be already living on the earth. 05:26.760 --> 05:30.880 And that's something that dispensationalists always try to say, like, 05:30.880 --> 05:35.880 we don't know who the lost tribes are, but God knows who they are, 05:35.880 --> 05:37.000 and they're living on the earth. 05:37.000 --> 05:44.920 And it's like, there's not 144,000 virgin Israelites living on the planet Earth right now 05:44.920 --> 05:48.440 that are even saved or going to be saved at this point. 05:48.440 --> 05:50.360 So that's just not true. 05:50.400 --> 05:52.600 I'm like, well, they could be. 05:52.600 --> 05:54.000 And it's like, no. 05:54.000 --> 05:58.040 But I went through and I proved that there's just no way 05:58.040 --> 06:00.000 that that's even possible. 06:00.000 --> 06:03.720 So what they're trying to claim, it 06:03.720 --> 06:05.360 says that they're redeemed from the earth 06:05.360 --> 06:07.680 and they're the first fruits unto the Lamb. 06:08.200 --> 06:12.600 So, when it's talking about that, it's talking about the fact that they're resurrected at 06:12.600 --> 06:13.720 this point. 06:13.720 --> 06:18.360 And Jesus Christ is the first fruits, and they're the first fruits of the Lamb, and 06:18.360 --> 06:21.240 then they're sent back to preach. 06:21.240 --> 06:26.080 And then, of course, you have this angel that is sent also to preach the everlasting gospel, 06:26.080 --> 06:28.080 which is what Alex, Brother Alex, preaches. 06:28.080 --> 06:29.080 I'm just joking. 06:29.080 --> 06:32.040 I always say that because sometimes he'll be back late. 06:32.040 --> 06:36.160 And I say he's preaching the everlasting gospel. 06:36.200 --> 06:42.800 I'm kidding, but anyway, I just thought that would throw a little dig in there just to just to be funny there. So anyway 06:43.680 --> 06:48.460 So we got but that guy that person did get saved last week that Alex preached the everlasting gospel, too 06:48.460 --> 06:52.560 So it was their fault. They had a lot of questions. So sometimes people have a lot of questions in it 06:53.260 --> 06:55.260 You got to answer those questions 06:55.440 --> 06:56.880 sometimes so 06:56.880 --> 06:59.420 but anyway, so then you have 07:01.800 --> 07:08.800 So these angels are the thing I didn't mention is the 144,000 they have a mark on their forehead 07:08.800 --> 07:14.800 which is and the devil copies that with the mark you know the beast gives a mark to his followers 07:14.800 --> 07:19.800 and so it's probably one of the ways that he deceives people into saying that he's of God 07:19.800 --> 07:24.800 and so you know the devil is a big copycat with all the things that he does 07:24.800 --> 07:29.800 and God is actually the one that came up with that first and if you go to Ezekiel 07:29.800 --> 07:35.440 You can find a chapter where he has people marked so that God doesn't destroy, have them 07:35.440 --> 07:41.240 destroyed when he goes to have his people slaughter the wicked. 07:41.240 --> 07:45.560 I can't remember what chapter it is off the top of my head in Ezekiel, but it is in the 07:45.560 --> 07:47.320 book of Ezekiel for sure. 07:47.900 --> 07:49.900 Let's see 07:51.200 --> 07:55.880 So yeah, and then you have you have the rapture happening also in chapter 14 07:55.880 --> 07:59.060 so which also parallels chapter 7 because 07:59.580 --> 08:05.600 The rapture happens and the angel comes in or yeah, Jesus comes back. He reaps 08:06.320 --> 08:09.200 with this sickle, of course, it's not an actual 08:10.100 --> 08:11.700 sickle, but 08:11.700 --> 08:16.700 The angels go forth, verse 19 in chapter 14 says, 08:16.700 --> 08:18.700 And the angel thrust in his sickle into the earth, 08:18.700 --> 08:20.700 And gathered the vine of the earth, 08:20.700 --> 08:22.700 And cast it into the great winepress of the wrath of God. 08:22.700 --> 08:26.700 And that's when, you know, so the wrath of God has not happened yet. 08:27.400 --> 08:33.320 in chapter 14, but then we've already had it happen in chapter 8, and chapter 9, and chapter 10, 08:33.320 --> 08:38.600 so it's like, well, how's that? That would be confusing. Yeah, because it is confusing if you 08:38.600 --> 08:46.120 don't chop Revelation in half in chapter 11, and then go back to chapter 12, 13, and 14. So, 08:47.160 --> 08:54.520 again, the plagues have not started in the second half of the retelling of Revelation here. 08:54.520 --> 08:55.400 I was trying to explain this 08:55.400 --> 09:01.400 to somebody yesterday and basically at the end of the conversation it was like, you can't 09:01.400 --> 09:04.800 just get up and tell people that things are going to happen for sure and that you know 09:04.800 --> 09:07.160 what the book of Revelation is saying. 09:07.160 --> 09:08.160 And I'm just like... 09:08.800 --> 09:13.280 Well, I mean, there are some things that you can tell for sure. That's why it's called the revelation 09:13.280 --> 09:17.200 because Jesus Christ is trying to tell us these things that are going to shortly come to pass. 09:17.200 --> 09:23.120 And he's telling us, he's giving commentary on the things that are already prophesied in the Old 09:23.120 --> 09:27.760 Testament. And the New Testament gives commentary on what happens in the Old Testament and helps us 09:27.760 --> 09:32.960 to interpret these things. And especially like the book of Daniel, very cryptic book, very hard to 09:32.960 --> 09:36.720 understand if you don't have the key to unlocking Daniel from the book of Revelation, you're not 09:36.800 --> 09:40.440 going to understand the book of Daniel, but there's a lot of things that we do understand 09:40.440 --> 09:42.880 the book of Daniel because of the book of Revelation. 09:42.880 --> 09:45.500 So it's very important that people understand that. 09:45.500 --> 09:49.160 So let's get into chapter 15 tonight. 09:49.160 --> 09:53.800 And so like I said, chapter 15 is kind of like building us up to chapter 16. 09:53.800 --> 09:57.980 In verse number one it says, and I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvelous, seven 09:57.980 --> 10:04.780 angels having the seven last plagues for in them is filled up the wrath of God. 10:04.800 --> 10:13.000 So last plagues, it's talking about as in order of not saying that it's like these are seven 10:13.000 --> 10:16.780 last plagues that are in a row, like one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, as in they're 10:16.780 --> 10:20.080 separate from the trumpet plagues. 10:20.080 --> 10:22.000 Because I've already proved it in another sermon. 10:22.000 --> 10:24.280 I think it was in chapter eight or chapter nine. 10:24.280 --> 10:25.360 I can't remember which one it was. 10:25.360 --> 10:29.360 where I showed that these are sequentially... 10:30.000 --> 10:32.560 going in order as it'll be a trumpet blast. 10:32.560 --> 10:34.040 And that's why I gave you those handouts, 10:34.040 --> 10:37.040 because you can compare those different ones. 10:37.040 --> 10:39.840 And you'll see in some of those, 10:39.840 --> 10:40.920 on the handout that I gave you, 10:40.920 --> 10:44.120 that it'll say like a third of the trees are burned up, 10:44.120 --> 10:47.560 or a third of the sea was, you know, 10:47.560 --> 10:49.160 of all the sea life died. 10:49.160 --> 10:52.720 But then the next, but then when you get the bull, 10:52.720 --> 10:54.840 you know, the bull or the vile poured out, 10:54.840 --> 10:56.680 then all the sea life dies. 10:56.900 --> 11:02.500 So it's like you're kind of getting, the trumpets are kind of like you're getting the third. 11:02.900 --> 11:07.300 part of a plague and then the vile comes out 11:07.300 --> 11:10.580 and then kills everything in the sea, kills everything. 11:10.580 --> 11:13.480 And so it's kind of like that's why it's, 11:13.480 --> 11:15.300 you know it's going sequentially because 11:15.300 --> 11:17.240 if you compare them side by side, 11:17.240 --> 11:19.780 you can see that that's kind of what's happening. 11:19.780 --> 11:23.580 So, and I'll get more into that and explain it more. 11:23.580 --> 11:26.220 So just keep that handout because I'm gonna explain 11:26.220 --> 11:28.860 and re-explain that again next week. 11:28.860 --> 11:30.260 But that's kind of why I gave that to you. 11:30.260 --> 11:30.900 So. 11:30.900 --> 11:32.700 You can kind of look at the things side by side. 11:32.700 --> 11:33.860 I didn't put all the scriptures. 11:33.860 --> 11:35.540 I just put the scripture references in there 11:35.540 --> 11:38.540 and kind of just summarized in there what those were. 11:38.540 --> 11:42.820 So anyway, so it says, I saw another sign in heaven, 11:42.820 --> 11:46.700 great and marvelous, seven angels having the seven last plagues, 11:46.700 --> 11:50.020 for in them is filled up the wrath of God. 11:50.020 --> 11:50.540 So. 11:50.540 --> 11:50.700 you 11:50.800 --> 11:57.600 So what it's saying here is that they're the last ones, I believe, in order sequentially, 11:57.600 --> 12:00.640 as in you have the trumpet, then you have the vial. 12:00.640 --> 12:03.320 Then you have a trumpet, then you have a vial. 12:03.320 --> 12:09.640 And really in order, the very last thing that's done is that last, if you look at the last 12:09.640 --> 12:12.920 plague on there, the last vial, what happens? 12:12.920 --> 12:15.320 You have that big earthquake that happens. 12:15.320 --> 12:18.760 You have the hailstones where people blaspheme. 12:18.800 --> 12:24.440 because those talent sized hailstones are dropping on people and then that gigantic 12:24.440 --> 12:29.040 earthquake that knocks every single building down and destroys every building in the whole 12:29.040 --> 12:30.440 face of the earth. 12:30.440 --> 12:31.440 Which that's crazy. 12:31.440 --> 12:36.620 I mean that's the end all be all of all earthquakes. 12:36.620 --> 12:40.200 That's the big mama jama earthquake. 12:40.200 --> 12:46.640 So anyway, so the last, so what it means by the last plagues is saying I believe that 12:46.800 --> 12:53.360 order in which they fall and really that last final plague which is that great hail and 12:53.360 --> 13:02.120 the earthquake but all those seven last plagues follow a severe plague with a way more severe 13:02.120 --> 13:10.220 plague so anyway verse two it says and I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire 13:10.220 --> 13:13.220 and then that had gotten the victory over the beast. 13:13.300 --> 13:19.300 and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the 13:19.300 --> 13:23.300 sea of glass, having the harps of God." 13:24.100 --> 13:28.840 And basically this is kind of paralleling also to chapter 7 13:28.840 --> 13:34.740 still spilling over because remember the last chapter, chapter 14, the rapture has happened. 13:34.740 --> 13:38.800 And what do you have in chapter 7? Well, you see all those people appear in heaven. 13:38.800 --> 13:42.700 There's a great multitude that no man can number and they just appear there. 13:42.700 --> 13:45.900 And then, you know, the guy up there that's talking, John, he's like, 13:45.900 --> 13:47.500 he's like, sir, where did these come from? 13:47.500 --> 13:50.300 And he's like, you know, you know where they came from. 13:50.300 --> 13:52.060 As far as thou knowest. 13:52.100 --> 13:56.120 It's like, why are you asking me when you already know? 13:56.120 --> 14:00.520 But that's kind of what's going on here is that you're seeing a similar picture. 14:00.520 --> 14:05.320 You're seeing this sea of glass mingle with fire and them that had gotten victory over 14:05.320 --> 14:08.040 the beast, over his image, over his mark. 14:08.040 --> 14:09.440 Well, how does that happen? 14:09.440 --> 14:10.200 Well... 14:10.300 --> 14:15.300 They're saved and they're in heaven. That's how they got victory over and who gave them that victory 14:15.300 --> 14:20.860 Well, of course the Lord Jesus Christ did but you know that because they're saved they get victory over it 14:20.860 --> 14:22.860 And even if he does kill people 14:22.900 --> 14:29.900 They still get victory in them because they you know immediately after someone's martyred and killed they immediately go to heaven 14:29.900 --> 14:34.100 And if they're if they are martyred, then they have a better resurrection 14:34.100 --> 14:38.260 So in reality, that's like a double victory if you're martyred 14:38.300 --> 14:39.980 for your faith in that time. 14:40.400 --> 14:46.180 So, and it says that they have victory over all these things because, you know, if you 14:46.180 --> 14:49.400 have taken the mark of the beast, you're doomed. 14:49.400 --> 14:50.400 There's no salvation. 14:50.400 --> 14:51.840 You can't cut off your head. 14:51.840 --> 14:54.520 You can't cut off your hand to be saved. 14:54.520 --> 14:56.480 I already covered that before. 14:56.480 --> 14:58.280 And you're just doomed if you do that. 14:58.280 --> 15:03.900 And chapter 14 also mentions how that if you take the mark of the beast or worship the 15:03.900 --> 15:08.400 beast or the image of the beast, then you're damned forever. 15:08.400 --> 15:12.960 smoke of your torment ascendeth up forever and ever and anybody that 15:12.960 --> 15:18.300 worships the beast or the mark or takes the mark they're doomed. So there's no 15:18.300 --> 15:23.100 salvation coming to those people for there's no way to escape it at that 15:23.100 --> 15:27.000 point. So once you've crossed that line you can't cross back over it. 15:27.400 --> 15:35.120 So, now when it says the sea of glass mingled with fire, so of course the fire is representative 15:35.120 --> 15:39.840 of God's judgment, but the sea, what is the sea representative of? 15:39.840 --> 15:42.800 Well, let's, I'm glad you asked. 15:42.800 --> 15:44.640 Turn to Revelation chapter 13 verse 1. 15:45.500 --> 15:51.260 So the C does have some symbolic meaning when it talks about the C in the book of Daniel, 15:51.260 --> 15:57.260 when it talks about the C in the book of Revelation, it does have a symbolic meaning for us. 15:57.400 --> 16:00.320 Now, Revelation chapter 13 verse number 1, the Bible says, 16:00.320 --> 16:03.000 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, 16:03.000 --> 16:05.960 and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, 16:05.960 --> 16:09.240 having seven heads and ten horns. 16:09.240 --> 16:13.660 And upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads 16:13.660 --> 16:14.680 the name of blasphemy. 16:14.680 --> 16:18.320 But were it to rise up upon the sand of the sea, 16:18.320 --> 16:20.200 it stood upon the sand of the sea. 16:20.200 --> 16:24.360 So it came out of that sea, obviously. 16:24.360 --> 16:25.360 Now, how do I know that? 16:25.400 --> 16:34.200 look back at Daniel chapter 7, and this is where you first kind of get this picture of 16:34.200 --> 16:37.160 what the sea is and the interpretation of it. 16:38.300 --> 16:42.780 Now remember Daniel wasn't really getting 100% of all the interpretation. 16:42.780 --> 16:45.340 He didn't fully understand what he was seeing. 16:45.340 --> 16:50.100 And even in the end, God just tells him, well, seal those things up, Daniel. 16:50.100 --> 16:52.660 You don't need to know these things, kiddo. 16:52.660 --> 16:54.540 They're sealed up until the time of the end. 16:54.540 --> 16:58.780 After the 1,335 days, you're gonna inherit in your lot. 16:58.780 --> 17:05.660 And that's gonna be after the tribulation, after the martyrs, and so on and so forth. 17:05.660 --> 17:06.300 So. 17:06.700 --> 17:09.580 But when you bring that up to dispensationalists, 17:09.580 --> 17:11.100 they don't really like that one. 17:11.100 --> 17:13.980 Because the person I was talking to about that yesterday, 17:13.980 --> 17:15.820 I was like, yeah, the 1,335 days, 17:15.820 --> 17:18.820 if you measure that from the beginning of the seven years, 17:18.820 --> 17:22.860 that lands you about 75 days after the Great Tribulation, 17:22.860 --> 17:24.620 after the midpoint, I said. 17:24.620 --> 17:25.940 And that's what? 17:25.940 --> 17:29.180 When he's resurrected, when we're resurrected from the dead. 17:29.180 --> 17:33.020 Anyway, so that's when he told me, well, 17:33.020 --> 17:34.700 you can't just say these things for sure. 17:34.700 --> 17:46.180 In the first year of Belshazzar, king of Babylon, Daniel had a dream and visions of 17:46.180 --> 17:47.860 his head upon his bed. 17:47.860 --> 17:50.820 Then he wrote the dream and told the sum of the matters. 17:51.200 --> 17:58.720 Daniel spake and said I saw my vision by night and behold the four winds of the heavens strove upon the great sea and 17:59.840 --> 18:07.040 Four great beasts came up from the sea diverse one from another so where they come from they came from the sea 18:07.360 --> 18:14.660 Now skip down to verse 15 so basically in between these verses is telling you about the different beasts and what they represent, right? 18:15.300 --> 18:20.160 So, and then it's going to give us the interpretation of it here. 18:20.160 --> 18:23.920 It says in verse 15, I Daniel was grieved in my spirit in the midst of my body and the 18:23.920 --> 18:26.280 visions of my head troubled me. 18:26.280 --> 18:31.400 I came near unto one of them that stood by and asked him the truth of all this. 18:31.400 --> 18:35.180 So he told me, and maybe to know the interpretation of these things. 18:35.180 --> 18:37.440 So he's being told the interpretation, right? 18:37.440 --> 18:43.300 It says, these great beasts which are four, are four kings which shall, what does it say? 18:43.300 --> 18:52.620 arise out of the earth. So that's the interpretation. The sea is talking about the earth. And so 18:52.620 --> 18:57.920 that seems confusing though. But what it's talking about though is these, what kind of 18:57.920 --> 19:02.660 kings are they though? Are these kings, are these Jewish kings? Are these the nation of 19:02.660 --> 19:09.620 Israel kings? Are these saved countries that they're rising up out of? No, they're countries 19:09.620 --> 19:11.220 that are gent- they're gentile. 19:11.300 --> 19:11.940 Kings. 19:12.800 --> 19:18.460 So, the kingdom has been given over to the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles become 19:18.460 --> 19:21.620 in, and then we'll take the kingdom. 19:21.620 --> 19:23.740 So what is the interpretation? 19:23.740 --> 19:27.700 Well, when it's talking about them rising out of the sea, these beasts rising out of 19:27.700 --> 19:30.900 the sea, it's talking about the Gentile nations. 19:30.900 --> 19:32.740 That's where they're rising from. 19:32.740 --> 19:34.300 Do you see that there? 19:34.300 --> 19:36.540 Okay, I just want to make sure. 19:36.540 --> 19:40.180 Now let's go to Revelation chapter 17 verse 1. 19:40.900 --> 19:44.420 Let's see if it's still logic-ing here. 19:44.420 --> 19:48.500 Revelation chapter 17 verse number one. 19:48.500 --> 19:50.000 And then we'll head back to Revelation 15. 19:50.000 --> 19:52.320 Revelation chapter 17 verse number one. 19:52.320 --> 19:56.000 The Bible says, and there came one of the seven angels, 19:56.000 --> 19:58.720 which had the seven vials, and talked with me, 19:58.720 --> 20:02.840 saying unto me, come hither, I will show unto thee 20:02.840 --> 20:06.920 the judgment of the great whore that siteth upon, 20:06.920 --> 20:07.900 what does it say there? 20:08.000 --> 20:15.120 many waters, with whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants 20:15.120 --> 20:16.680 of the earth have been made. 20:17.000 --> 20:22.360 Drunk with the wine of her fornication so the whore siteth upon many waters 20:22.360 --> 20:28.080 So what is that saying well the whore is sitting on these many different nations in which? 20:28.560 --> 20:34.680 So the water I'm just trying to show you the waters that it's talking about is talking about all these different Gentile nations 20:35.120 --> 20:38.300 Alright, so now let's go back to revolution revelation chapter 15 20:39.520 --> 20:40.600 verse 20:40.700 --> 20:44.980 Number two is this the water that you brought up here earlier gave did anybody take a drink of this 20:45.780 --> 20:47.780 Does anybody poison this I want to know? 20:51.900 --> 20:56.620 All right revelation chapter 15 verse 2 it says and I saw as it were a 20:57.380 --> 20:58.860 sea of glass 20:58.860 --> 21:00.860 mingled with fire and 21:01.180 --> 21:03.180 Them that had gotten the victory 21:03.700 --> 21:08.700 over the beast and over his image and over his mark and over the number of his name 21:09.460 --> 21:13.560 Stand on the sea of glass having the harps of God 21:14.060 --> 21:20.260 So it's interesting that is telling us saying that there's that worse. They're standing on the sea of glass 21:21.000 --> 21:26.800 Now, in the Bible there's a prophecy about Jesus Christ crushing the serpent's head, 21:26.800 --> 21:31.840 or that he's going to bruise the serpent's head. 21:31.840 --> 21:35.320 Go ahead and turn to Genesis chapter 3 verse 15. 21:35.320 --> 21:43.480 Now that fire that it's talking about mingled with the sea has turned that sea into a sea 21:43.480 --> 21:48.400 of glass that the saints are standing on top of it. 21:49.000 --> 21:55.800 Well, thank you. I'll switch a roux. Some cold stuff, alright. This is the real poison. 21:58.100 --> 22:00.100 Who has the antidote? 22:00.100 --> 22:01.100 Okay. 22:01.100 --> 22:04.100 I'll drink poison things and it will not kill me. 22:04.100 --> 22:05.100 No. 22:05.100 --> 22:06.100 Let's see. 22:06.100 --> 22:08.420 Yeah, so I mean the molten glass there. 22:09.000 --> 22:13.800 that we'll be on top of, I believe it's talking about. 22:13.800 --> 22:16.040 So basically what I think it's representing, 22:16.040 --> 22:17.920 and this is my opinion, 22:17.920 --> 22:19.820 I can't be super dogmatic about it, 22:19.820 --> 22:21.280 but I think it's just representing the fact 22:21.280 --> 22:22.720 that the sea has been judged, 22:22.720 --> 22:27.280 because look, God's judging the earth after we're gone. 22:27.280 --> 22:29.120 He's judging the earth. 22:29.120 --> 22:31.160 And that fire that's mingled with 22:31.160 --> 22:34.560 is representing the fires and everything. 22:34.560 --> 22:37.000 Because I mean, God's gonna destroy the earth by fire. 22:37.000 --> 22:43.080 most of the stuff that he does, there's fire involved and destruction through fire and 22:43.080 --> 22:46.640 burning things falling into the ocean and all this stuff. 22:46.640 --> 22:51.000 And then it's, you know, after it's destroyed, it's turning, you know, people always say 22:51.000 --> 22:56.200 that, you know, what we need to do, these Muslim nations is turned into a sea of glass. 22:56.200 --> 23:00.100 Well God is actually going to turn the nations into a sea of glass, but it's not just the 23:00.100 --> 23:01.100 Muslim nations. 23:01.100 --> 23:05.000 be any nation that's wicked that takes the Mark of the Beast and 23:05.000 --> 23:09.320 And so it's basically all the wicked people on the earth are going to be turned into a 23:09.320 --> 23:10.320 sea of glass basically. 23:10.320 --> 23:11.920 They're all going to be destroyed. 23:12.300 --> 23:18.960 So, and then I believe that this representative of us standing on this is that we get the 23:18.960 --> 23:23.560 victory over the beast, we get the victory over all these people that hate us and that 23:23.560 --> 23:25.340 hate God. 23:25.340 --> 23:32.160 And Genesis 3.15 says, and I will put enmity between thee and the woman and between thy 23:32.160 --> 23:34.160 seed and her seed. 23:34.160 --> 23:38.360 So thy seed and her seed is not, it is Jesus, of course. 23:38.360 --> 23:40.280 Jesus is the seed. 23:40.300 --> 23:47.300 But it's also us who are saved because when Satan comes down having great wrath because 23:47.300 --> 23:53.980 he knows he has but a short time, he comes to make war with the remnant of her seed. 23:53.980 --> 23:57.300 So we're also part of that. 23:57.300 --> 24:01.780 We are the remnant of her seed, which is the seed of Christ. 24:01.780 --> 24:02.400 So. 24:02.700 --> 24:09.780 He's gonna come and make war with us and overcome us and kill a bunch of Christians and save people 24:09.980 --> 24:16.640 But it says it shall bruise thy head thou shalt bruise his heel so Satan is gonna bruise the heel 24:16.960 --> 24:20.220 Now I would say that that represents of course Jesus 24:20.540 --> 24:26.480 But it also represents us too because he's gonna he's gonna be bruising our heel also 24:26.940 --> 24:30.620 So he already you know when he killed when Jesus 24:30.700 --> 24:36.580 was killed on the cross, he thought he won the victory, but really Jesus crushed him 24:36.580 --> 24:38.500 and bruised his head. 24:38.500 --> 24:43.160 Now all these things haven't taken place yet where the final destruction, we're still waiting 24:43.160 --> 24:46.700 for these things to happen, but it's as if it's already happened. 24:46.700 --> 24:53.480 And the victory that we get is that we can be saved and Jesus won the victory by of course 24:53.480 --> 24:58.700 purchasing us and purchasing the atonement and all those things. 24:58.700 --> 25:05.740 turn to Romans chapter 16 because we we are part and parcel we inherit with 25:05.740 --> 25:10.740 Christ and we also inherit the blessings that Christ inherits and Paul says 25:10.740 --> 25:17.180 something really interesting in chapter Romans chapter 16 and he's specifically 25:17.180 --> 25:21.800 speaking about those that would cause divisions those that we should mark and 25:21.800 --> 25:25.500 avoid those that we would be our enemies 25:25.500 --> 25:32.420 In, you know, people that are just constantly trying to fight us and antagonize us and cause 25:32.420 --> 25:37.940 problems it says, Romans chapter 16 verse 17, now have a seat you brother and mark them 25:37.940 --> 25:43.820 which cause divisions and offenses contrary to the doctrine which you have learned and 25:43.820 --> 25:48.460 avoid them for they are they that are. 25:49.100 --> 25:54.380 Excuse me, for they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly, 25:54.380 --> 25:59.140 and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple. 25:59.140 --> 26:00.620 Do you sound like good people or bad people? 26:01.000 --> 26:04.520 These are wicked people. These are like false prophets type people, right? 26:04.520 --> 26:10.840 It says, for your obedience has come abroad unto all men. I'm glad therefore on your behalf, 26:10.840 --> 26:17.720 but yet I would have you wise unto that which is good and simple concerning evil. He doesn't want 26:17.720 --> 26:22.680 us to just delve into all this stuff to have to learn all these evil things so that we can, 26:22.680 --> 26:26.520 you know, people have these apologetics ministries where you have to learn every 26:26.520 --> 26:28.880 single wicked thing that these wicked people do. 26:29.000 --> 26:31.200 And I don't think that we necessarily do. 26:31.200 --> 26:34.040 There are some things that we need to understand that people believe if we want to convert 26:34.040 --> 26:37.680 people sometimes, but I don't think we need to know the ins and outs of every single wicked 26:37.680 --> 26:39.600 device that people know. 26:39.600 --> 26:44.360 The gospel is what the power of salvation is, not learning every false prophet's dirty 26:44.360 --> 26:45.400 little trick or whatever. 26:45.400 --> 26:53.040 So Romans 16 verse 20, and the God of peace shall, what does it say there, bruise Satan 26:53.040 --> 26:55.200 under your feet shortly. 26:56.100 --> 26:59.220 the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you amen. 26:59.220 --> 27:06.500 So it's not just Jesus Christ who bruises the head of Satan, but it says 27:06.500 --> 27:09.780 that he'll bruise Satan under our feet shortly. 27:10.000 --> 27:15.080 Now, of course, that's a future event that's going to happen, but I think that it does 27:15.080 --> 27:17.240 kind of tie into what this is talking about. 27:17.240 --> 27:21.460 It's representative of what this is talking about, because who is the beast? 27:21.460 --> 27:25.560 The beast is somebody that's energized by the devil himself. 27:25.560 --> 27:33.120 I preach about the evil trinity, where it's the beast, and it's the image that he makes 27:33.120 --> 27:36.600 come to life, and it's Satan himself. 27:36.600 --> 27:37.880 Of course you have the false, 27:38.000 --> 27:39.000 profit. 27:39.100 --> 27:45.900 which I mean I would say he's the fourth member of that wicked, but I think that the, I really, 27:45.900 --> 27:51.260 I mean I've always used to preach that it was the beast, the false prophet, and Satan, but I think 27:51.260 --> 27:57.020 that the false prophet is separated from that evil trinity because it's the, it's the, it always 27:57.020 --> 28:01.180 mentioned, it doesn't mention the false prophet all the time when it's speaking of what we get 28:01.180 --> 28:06.940 victory over, it's talking about the image that he makes that comes to life. And 28:07.100 --> 28:12.300 And it says what you're damned for is worshipping that image. 28:12.300 --> 28:15.060 And what you're damned for is worshipping the beast. 28:15.060 --> 28:19.660 And what you're damned for is worshipping the dragon that gives power to the beast. 28:19.660 --> 28:21.760 Now of course, you're fooled by it. 28:21.760 --> 28:26.060 People can get fooled by the false prophet and he points you to the direction of the 28:26.060 --> 28:27.420 beast. 28:27.420 --> 28:27.800 But... 28:27.900 --> 28:32.140 you know John the Baptist just like he so the false prophets like the John the Baptist for 28:32.780 --> 28:39.800 the beast and the image and Satan so anyway let's go to 28:41.100 --> 28:48.060 Let's go to verse 3. Yeah, so the fire represents the destruction of the world received by the hand of God, 28:48.780 --> 28:52.620 and we will stand on it and shortly bruise him under our feet. 28:53.260 --> 28:57.360 And those that came out of great tribulation have gotten victory over the beast. 28:57.800 --> 29:01.560 by salvation and Jesus rescuing those that are alive and remain. 29:01.560 --> 29:04.200 And this is the picture that we're seeing in this chapter. 29:04.200 --> 29:09.880 Verse 3, and they sing the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, 29:10.760 --> 29:14.520 Great and marvelous are thy works, Lord God Almighty. 29:15.080 --> 29:19.080 Just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints. 29:19.880 --> 29:20.040 So 29:21.100 --> 29:25.500 They're singing a song. They're singing a song of Moses now 29:26.100 --> 29:30.720 Moses has three specific possibly four specific songs that he sings in 29:31.340 --> 29:34.100 scripture or two that we know that he served three that 29:34.600 --> 29:41.840 There's some lyrics of his song that he sang here in Revelation, just a couple verses here. 29:41.840 --> 29:46.160 And then of course we have the one that he sang and taught the people in Exodus chapter 29:46.160 --> 29:48.700 15 after they crossed the Red Sea. 29:48.700 --> 29:49.840 And that one's a little bit shorter. 29:49.840 --> 29:51.500 but the one on Deuteronomy. 29:51.600 --> 29:59.080 Chapter 32 is 43 verses long and he just he talks about how you know Israel if they'll 29:59.520 --> 30:01.560 Do well then they're gonna be blessed 30:01.560 --> 30:08.220 But then he talks about in the in the latter times that they're gonna turn against God and that he's gonna destroy them 30:08.220 --> 30:10.220 And he talks about a lot of judgment 30:10.700 --> 30:20.200 which ties with this passage because what's about to happen here is gearing us up for the great destruction that's going to happen in chapter 16. 30:20.200 --> 30:29.900 And of course Babylon is the system that Satan uses to deceive the world, that spirit that Satan uses to deceive the world. 30:29.900 --> 30:31.900 but 30:32.600 --> 30:39.200 Anyway, I didn't have a handout for the songs of Moses, but the other what's the other song that he is attributed to it's 30:39.720 --> 30:45.760 Psalm 90 it specifically says that it's a song it's a song that Moses sings and then of course you have 30:46.480 --> 30:48.480 just a little snippet here in 30:49.560 --> 30:51.560 Revelation chapter 15 30:51.840 --> 30:55.180 But the Saints are singing this song the servant of Moses 30:56.000 --> 30:58.800 Moses the servant of God and the song of the Lamb 30:59.600 --> 31:03.760 Now, it's interesting that it says that they are saying it. 31:04.300 --> 31:08.700 And one thing I noticed, I used to say that you never see the angels actually singing 31:08.700 --> 31:09.700 in the Bible. 31:09.700 --> 31:14.780 That they're always, they're always, because there's so many hymns that we sing and it 31:14.780 --> 31:20.660 says the angels, about the angels singing and the old redemption story. 31:20.660 --> 31:24.180 You know, it always, there's a lot of hymns that talk about the angels singing, but you 31:24.180 --> 31:27.780 never see that in the Bible where they actually are singing. 31:28.600 --> 31:37.600 But I realized this when I was studying this passage that it's not saying that they're singing here, 31:37.600 --> 31:40.300 it's saying that they're saying. 31:40.300 --> 31:45.900 But I think that that is what they're doing, that they are actually, you know, it says saying, 31:45.900 --> 31:53.180 but they are actually saying it. And I don't have time to just go and look at every instance of when 31:53.180 --> 31:59.660 it says this, but like when the angels come and appear to the shepherds in the field, it does say 31:59.660 --> 32:05.180 that they're saying what they said. So, and like the hymns that you hear on Christmas, 32:05.180 --> 32:08.180 that will say that they're singing those things. 32:08.300 --> 32:11.580 I mean, so I guess the angels probably do sing. 32:11.580 --> 32:15.020 You know, it does say that they sing with us in heaven. 32:15.020 --> 32:17.020 There is a specific passage that does say that. 32:17.020 --> 32:21.860 So I guess I eat crow about that a little bit. 32:21.860 --> 32:26.860 So because it says they sing the song of Moses, the servant of God, 32:26.860 --> 32:28.140 and the song of the Lamb, saying. 32:28.140 --> 32:32.580 So saying and singing it is actually both things, you know. 32:32.580 --> 32:33.740 And it's scripture. 32:34.100 --> 32:38.600 So, what they're, you know, we would read it and we're not putting it to a tune in our 32:38.600 --> 32:42.940 mind necessarily unless there's some musical gifted genius savant or something. 32:42.940 --> 32:46.580 And you like, I've already put it to a tune already. 32:46.580 --> 32:50.940 I'm sure people have put these things to tunes over the years, over the last several hundred 32:50.940 --> 32:55.960 years, even thousands of years, 3500 years ago when Moses wrote this. 32:55.960 --> 33:01.260 But the Song of Moses, let's go ahead and turn over to Deuteronomy. 33:02.000 --> 33:04.240 and look at some of these passages. 33:09.400 --> 33:16.840 But even like in Exodus chapter 15, we don't have time to look at all of everything, but 33:18.360 --> 33:25.480 obviously Pharaoh getting smoked by God is definitely... 33:25.700 --> 33:30.960 Well, I mean the Exodus is a picture of the Great Tribulation of the wrath of God 33:30.960 --> 33:35.140 I mean God pours out those ten plagues upon Pharaoh and 33:35.740 --> 33:39.740 It's definitely a picture of God's wrath being poured upon the world 33:40.400 --> 33:42.400 Egypt is a picture of the world 33:43.380 --> 33:47.980 Pharaoh is a picture of the Antichrist. And so I I mean I would say that it probably 33:49.500 --> 33:52.940 It probably converts very nicely over to that and 33:53.700 --> 33:58.700 that God dashes to pieces his enemies, so on and so forth. 34:00.660 --> 34:04.900 But let's look at Deuteronomy chapter number, 34:04.900 --> 34:09.900 actually let's start in Deuteronomy chapter 31, verse 22. 34:10.020 --> 34:12.420 Deuteronomy chapter 31, verse 22. 34:13.860 --> 34:15.900 And I'll read this fast, okay? 34:15.900 --> 34:17.540 I'll stop for commentary, but. 34:18.900 --> 34:22.700 But anyway, so yeah, they're there in Revelation 15 three 34:22.700 --> 34:26.140 It says and they sing the song of Moses the servant of God and the song of the Lamb saying 34:26.500 --> 34:32.900 Great and marvelous are the are thy works Lord God Almighty just and true are thy ways thou King of Saints 34:33.660 --> 34:35.200 so 34:35.700 --> 34:51.940 This is what they're saying and verse 22 this Moses therefore wrote the song this this song the self same day and taught it to the children of Israel so and Moses teaches the children of Israel this song right before he dies. 34:52.500 --> 34:57.300 So, then he pulls the Yoda and just dies right after this, right? 34:57.300 --> 34:59.040 No more questions, children of Israel. 34:59.040 --> 35:00.920 He just goes and dies after this. 35:00.920 --> 35:06.240 And he gave Joshua, the son of Nun, a charge and said, be strong and have a good courage, 35:06.240 --> 35:10.760 for thou shalt bring the children of Israel into the land which I swear unto them, and 35:10.760 --> 35:11.760 I will be with thee. 35:11.760 --> 35:20.080 And it shall come to pass when Moses had made an end of writing the words of this law in 35:20.080 --> 35:20.500 a book. 35:20.500 --> 35:25.120 until they were finished, that Moses commanded the Levites which bear the ark of the covenant 35:25.120 --> 35:29.040 of the Lord, saying, Take this book of the law and put it in the side of the ark of the 35:29.040 --> 35:34.260 covenant of the Lord your God, that it may be therefore a witness against thee. 35:34.260 --> 35:36.720 For I know thy rebellion, and thy stiff neck. 35:36.720 --> 35:42.340 Behold, while I am yet alive with you this day, ye have been rebellious against the Lord, 35:42.340 --> 35:45.280 and how much more after my death. 35:45.280 --> 35:48.480 unto me all the elders of your tribes and your officer. 35:48.500 --> 35:53.300 that I may speak these words in your ears and call heaven and earth to record against them. 35:53.300 --> 35:57.460 For I know that after my death you will utterly corrupt yourselves and turn aside from the way 35:58.020 --> 36:03.860 which I have commanded you, and evil will befall you in the latter days, because you will do evil 36:03.860 --> 36:06.660 on the side of the Lord and provoke him to anger through the works of your hands." 36:07.860 --> 36:12.740 And Moses spake in the ears of all the congregation of Israel the words of this song. 36:13.600 --> 36:15.840 until they were ended. So it says He spake them. Right? 36:16.400 --> 36:18.640 Give ear, O ye heavens, and I will speak. 36:19.200 --> 36:25.760 And hear, O earth, the words of my mouth. My doctrine shall drop as rain, my speech shall distill as the dew, 36:25.760 --> 36:30.240 and a small rain upon the tender herb, and as the showers upon the grass. 36:30.240 --> 36:33.920 Because I will publish the name of the Lord, ascribe ye greatness unto our God. 36:33.920 --> 36:37.680 He is the Rock, his work is perfect for all his ways or judgment. 36:37.680 --> 36:41.120 A God of truth and without iniquity, just and right as he. 36:41.120 --> 36:47.040 They have corrupted themselves. Their spot is not the spot of his children. They are a perverse and 36:47.200 --> 36:48.200 a generation. 36:48.800 --> 36:53.280 Do ye thus requite the Lord, O foolish people and unwise? 36:53.280 --> 36:57.120 Is not he thy father that hath brought thee, bought thee, 36:57.120 --> 36:59.160 hath he not made thee, and established thee? 36:59.160 --> 37:00.240 Remember the days of old. 37:00.240 --> 37:02.640 Consider the years of many generations. 37:02.640 --> 37:05.160 Ask thy father, and he will show thee thy elders, 37:05.160 --> 37:06.360 and they will tell thee. 37:06.360 --> 37:09.520 When the Most High divided to the nations their inheritance, 37:09.520 --> 37:11.060 when he separated the sons of Adam, 37:11.060 --> 37:12.600 he set the bounds of the people according 37:12.600 --> 37:14.400 to the number of the children of Israel. 37:14.400 --> 37:16.440 For the Lord's portion is his people. 37:16.440 --> 37:16.800 Jacob. 37:16.800 --> 37:22.900 his lot of his inheritance. He found him in a desert land and in a waste howling wilderness. 37:22.900 --> 37:27.960 He led him about, he instructed him, he kept him as the apple of his eye. As an eagle stirreth 37:27.960 --> 37:33.360 up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them 37:33.360 --> 37:37.880 on her wings. So the Lord alone did lead him, and there was no strange God with him. 37:38.500 --> 37:43.220 He made him ride on the high places of the earth that he might eat the increase of the fields, 37:43.780 --> 37:49.300 and he made him to suck honey out of the rock and oil out of the flinty rock, butter of kine, 37:49.300 --> 37:55.860 and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs, and rams of bread of beshen, and goats with the fat of 37:55.860 --> 38:02.260 kidney, kidneys of wheat. And thou didst drink the pure blood of the grape. But Jesheron waxed fat, 38:02.260 --> 38:06.500 and kicked. Thou art waxed and fat, thou art grown thick, thou art covered with 38:06.500 --> 38:12.220 fatness, then he forsook God which made him and lightly esteemed the rock of his salvation. 38:12.220 --> 38:16.340 They provoked him to jealousy with strange gods, with abominations provoked they him 38:16.340 --> 38:17.480 to anger. 38:17.480 --> 38:23.100 They sacrificed unto devils, not to gods whom they knew not, to new gods that came newly 38:23.100 --> 38:25.860 up whom your fathers feared not. 38:26.400 --> 38:33.680 of the rock that begat thee, thou art unmindful, and hast forgotten God that formed thee. 38:33.680 --> 38:38.320 And when the Lord saw it, he abhorred them because the provoking of his sons and of his daughters. 38:38.320 --> 38:42.000 And he said, I will hide my face from them, I will see that their what their end shall be, 38:42.000 --> 38:47.440 for they are a foward generation, children of whom is no faith. They have moved me to 38:47.440 --> 38:51.520 jealousy with that which is not God, they have provoked me to anger with their vanities, 38:51.520 --> 38:54.320 and I will move them to jealousy with those which are not a people. 38:54.400 --> 38:57.560 I will provoke them to anger with the foolish nation. That's us 38:58.080 --> 39:02.240 For a fire is kindled to mine anger and shall burn unto the lowest hells 39:02.240 --> 39:06.220 The first time hell is ever mentioned in the Bible by the way and shall consume the earth 39:06.520 --> 39:10.500 With her increase and set on fire the foundations of the mountains 39:11.300 --> 39:17.460 I will heap mischiefs upon them. I will spend mine arrows upon them. They shall be burnt with hunger 39:17.460 --> 39:21.940 and devour with burning heat and with bitter destruction. I will also send the teeth of beasts 39:21.940 --> 39:27.780 upon them and with the poison of serpents and of the dust." So I mean, look, he's talking here about 39:27.780 --> 39:32.020 things that he's going to do, but doesn't he do this stuff in Revelation too? Doesn't he send the 39:32.020 --> 39:37.140 locusts upon them? Doesn't he send beasts of the earth upon them? This is exactly what he says. 39:37.140 --> 39:39.140 Doesn't he set doesn't he? 39:39.300 --> 39:45.140 burn them with fire? Yes, he does. With hunger? Yes, he does. He destroys their supply of food 39:45.140 --> 39:50.500 and burns all the trees up and everything. The sword without and terror within shall destroy 39:50.500 --> 39:55.300 both the young man and the virgin, the suckling, also with the man of gray hairs. I said I would 39:55.300 --> 39:59.380 scatter them into corners. I would make the remembrance of them to cease from among men. 39:59.380 --> 40:02.900 Were it not that I feared the wrath of the enemy, lest their adversaries should behave themselves 40:02.900 --> 40:07.220 strangely, and lest they should say, Our hand is high, and the Lord hath not... 40:07.300 --> 40:11.500 done all this for they are a nation void of counsel neither is there any 40:11.500 --> 40:16.020 understanding in them oh that they were wise oh that they understood this that 40:16.020 --> 40:20.500 they would consider their latter end isn't God smoking the children of 40:20.500 --> 40:24.300 Israel at the same time in the end times yes he is 40:24.700 --> 40:32.700 How should one chase a thousand and two put ten thousand to flight, except their rock had sold them and the Lord had shut them up? 40:32.700 --> 40:37.420 For their rock is not as our rock, even our enemies themselves being judges. 40:37.420 --> 40:45.180 For their vine is the vine of Sodom, and of the fields of Gomorrah their grapes are grapes of gall, and their clusters are bitter. 40:45.180 --> 40:49.820 I mean, they are the homo capital of the world over there in Tel Aviv right now. 40:49.820 --> 40:52.620 Their wine is as the poison of dragons and the- 40:52.700 --> 40:54.300 cruel venom of asps. 40:54.600 --> 40:59.440 is not this laid up in store with me, and sealed up among my treasures. 40:59.440 --> 41:03.920 To me belong with vengeance and recompense, their foot shall slide in due time, 41:03.920 --> 41:07.320 for the day of their calamity is at hand, and the things that shall come 41:07.320 --> 41:10.560 upon them shall make haste. 41:10.560 --> 41:13.920 For the Lord shall judge his people, and repent himself 41:13.920 --> 41:17.040 for his servants, when he seeth that their power is gone, 41:17.040 --> 41:20.680 and there is none shut up or left. And he shall say, 41:20.680 --> 41:21.680 Where are their gods? 41:21.680 --> 41:22.600 Their rock and 41:22.600 --> 41:28.120 whom they trusted, which did eat the fat of their sacrifices and drink the wine of their 41:28.120 --> 41:29.120 drink offerings. 41:29.120 --> 41:32.000 Let them rise up and help you and be your protection. 41:32.000 --> 41:36.760 See now that I, even I am he, and there is no God with me, I kill and I make alive, I 41:36.760 --> 41:41.760 wound and I heal, neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand. 41:41.760 --> 41:44.940 For I lift up my hand to heaven and I say I live forever. 41:44.940 --> 41:50.400 If I wet my glittering sword and mine hand take hold on judgment, I will render vengeance 41:50.600 --> 41:54.040 mine enemies and will reward them that hate me." 41:54.040 --> 41:56.880 Isn't that what he's doing here in the book of Revelation? 41:56.880 --> 41:57.880 Yes he is. 41:57.880 --> 42:03.520 I will take, excuse me, I will make mine arrows drunk with blood and my sword shall devour 42:03.520 --> 42:09.480 flesh and that with the blood of the slain of the captives from the beginning of revenge 42:09.480 --> 42:10.480 upon the enemy. 42:10.480 --> 42:16.120 Rejoice, O you nations, with his people, for he will avenge the blood of his servants and 42:16.120 --> 42:18.600 and will render vengeance to his adversary. 42:18.600 --> 42:24.440 adversaries and will be merciful unto his land and to his people." So again, this is what he's 42:25.080 --> 42:29.840 didn't the people that were slain and at the altar didn't they say how long Lord 42:30.120 --> 42:36.600 will be till you take avenge us? I mean, this is what he's talking about here, right? That he's gonna avenge them. 42:37.400 --> 42:41.000 And Moses came and spake all the words of this song to the ears of the people, 42:41.000 --> 42:46.680 he and Hoshea the son of Nun. And Moses made an end of speaking all these words to all Israel. 42:47.240 --> 42:51.240 And this is when, you know, then he dies basically right after this. So. 42:51.600 --> 42:57.840 His farewell address, this man who everybody in Israel still worships today, and if they knew 42:57.840 --> 43:03.040 where his body was buried, they would be definitely kissing the bones of Moses every chance they got. 43:03.040 --> 43:08.320 There'd be lines, it'd be like the Mecca of the Jews basically. They'd be in Moab circling around 43:08.320 --> 43:13.520 it like there'd probably be a GameCube there too that they would walk around every day. So 43:14.480 --> 43:18.720 look, there's no doubt that's why God hid the body of Moses in my opinion. 43:19.600 --> 43:24.740 be worshipping him. They worship the brazen pole to where they had to have it destroyed 43:24.740 --> 43:29.240 and ground into powder because the children of Israel were worshipping it. They no doubt 43:29.240 --> 43:34.100 would worship Moses. So I'm not going to go through the other songs of Moses, but I mean, 43:34.100 --> 43:38.840 I feel like that that one is definitely hitting the nail on the head. The children of Israel 43:38.840 --> 43:46.260 betrayed God. And even at the beginning of that, it talks about how that they're a feroard 43:46.260 --> 43:47.100 generation. 43:47.500 --> 43:51.500 And Jesus said that there are a wicked generation also. 43:51.500 --> 43:55.500 He said they're a wicked and adulterous generation. 43:55.500 --> 44:01.500 And so God, it's fitting that the song of Moses is going to be sang by them 44:01.500 --> 44:06.500 because God is about ready in this chapter, like I said, it's a segue into chapter 16 44:06.500 --> 44:12.500 where the fullness of God's judgment is going to be poured out upon the earth. 44:12.500 --> 44:14.500 And guess what? We're not going to be there. 44:14.500 --> 44:15.500 You know, the pre-tribbers... 44:15.500 --> 44:20.780 like to say, and we're not going to be here for any of this, well we are going to be here 44:20.780 --> 44:25.540 for the wrath of the devil, the wrath of mankind, we will be here for that stuff. 44:26.000 --> 44:29.760 But we will not be here for when God pours his wrath out. 44:29.760 --> 44:32.040 The stuff that he's talking about doing to people here, 44:32.040 --> 44:33.640 we won't be here for that stuff. 44:33.640 --> 44:35.600 We're not gonna be here for the great fires 44:35.600 --> 44:40.600 and all the stuff that God has stored up in reserves. 44:40.960 --> 44:42.200 He's got reserves. 44:42.200 --> 44:45.240 He talks about all these treasure reserves that he has, 44:45.240 --> 44:47.700 but those are treasure reserves that we don't want. 44:47.800 --> 44:53.640 Those are reserves of fire and brimstone, giant hailstones, thunders and lightnings. 44:53.640 --> 44:58.840 We don't want that. We don't want that smoke. We don't want that heat. That's reserved for 44:58.840 --> 45:03.240 our enemies. That's reserved for the people that kill God's people all the day long. 45:03.240 --> 45:08.520 That's reserved for the vilest among the vile. And they're going to get what's coming to them. 45:08.520 --> 45:10.440 And look, they deserve it. 45:10.900 --> 45:13.900 You know, and obviously we don't want people to go to hell. 45:13.900 --> 45:15.600 We don't want people to die and go to hell. 45:15.600 --> 45:17.700 We don't want people to take the mark of the beast. 45:17.700 --> 45:21.900 And that's why we try to get people saved and pulled them out of the fire 45:21.900 --> 45:23.500 before they have to go to the fire. 45:23.500 --> 45:26.900 Before they have to experience the fire before they go to the fire. 45:26.900 --> 45:30.300 Because those people are alive during that generation, 45:30.300 --> 45:31.900 they're going to experience... 45:32.300 --> 45:37.780 Hell on earth basically before they go to hell forever after that and look, you know 45:37.780 --> 45:39.740 We don't want people to go there 45:39.740 --> 45:46.060 But you know God is right and just to do what he does and they deserve everything that they're gonna get so 45:46.300 --> 45:50.860 People just like oh, I don't want to worship a God that would send someone to hell. Well 45:51.940 --> 45:57.500 You're gonna go there too then dummy get saved because you're gonna bow down 45:58.300 --> 46:04.300 just like everybody else does. It's better to bow a servant and a loved son or daughter of God than 46:04.300 --> 46:09.340 it is to bow down right before he casts you into hell. Because either way you're bowing. 46:10.140 --> 46:14.060 People are like, oh no. I love telling people they're going to bow because they're like, oh no, 46:14.060 --> 46:18.940 no I'm not. Oh yeah you are. That's what the Bible says. The Bible is true friend. 46:18.940 --> 46:23.900 The Bible says that every knee shall bow. Every tongue shall confess. 46:24.900 --> 46:27.340 You're all going to call him Lord too. 46:27.340 --> 46:28.840 And then you're going to go to hell. 46:28.840 --> 46:35.080 So I'd rather bow the knee and call him Lord and be going to heaven than bow the knee and 46:35.080 --> 46:38.080 call him Lord and be cast into hell for all eternity. 46:38.080 --> 46:40.420 I mean what a dumb choice to make. 46:40.420 --> 46:41.940 It's like you're that proud. 46:41.940 --> 46:42.940 You're that stupid. 46:42.940 --> 46:45.580 I mean that's why God calls them fools. 46:45.580 --> 46:47.440 Because you have to be a fool to want to go to hell. 46:48.000 --> 46:54.460 And people just buy this false truth, this false hood that you're going to be playing 46:54.460 --> 46:58.880 poker with your, you're going to be playing Texas Hold'em with the dogs at the poker table 46:58.880 --> 47:03.160 and all your friends and you're going to be listening to Hank Williams or something and 47:03.160 --> 47:06.320 drinking Budweiser with your friends in hell. 47:06.320 --> 47:08.800 That's not happening. 47:08.800 --> 47:10.840 You're going to be in outer darkness. 47:11.300 --> 47:13.900 There'll be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 47:13.900 --> 47:15.800 That's what it actually is. 47:15.800 --> 47:18.600 You're not going to be able to talk to your friends. 47:18.600 --> 47:20.200 You might hear your friends screaming, 47:20.200 --> 47:22.400 oh, I recognize that scream. 47:22.400 --> 47:24.400 But it's not going to be a scream 47:24.400 --> 47:27.100 that you're going to have some kind of conversation with. 47:27.100 --> 47:31.400 You might say, I'm sorry for talking you into going to hell. 47:31.400 --> 47:32.900 When you give some stupid speech 47:32.900 --> 47:34.600 that turns someone away from God, 47:34.600 --> 47:36.500 maybe they'll be sorry about that. 47:37.100 --> 47:40.700 because they're down a level of hell because they turn people away from the faith. 47:42.860 --> 47:48.060 But everything that God does, these people are going to deserve. When he says here, 47:48.060 --> 47:52.300 here's blood to drink because you're worthy. I mean, that's pretty gross, right? 47:53.260 --> 47:57.420 If you've accidentally drank any blood or ate blood ever before, it's disgusting, 47:58.060 --> 48:02.620 you know? And that's not something that is a very good, that's not something I would want to do, 48:02.620 --> 48:04.220 but they're so thirsty. 48:04.800 --> 48:09.440 that they're going to drink blood because the water is going to be turned into blood, actual blood. 48:09.440 --> 48:09.940 Gross. 48:12.400 --> 48:15.440 I mean, you must be pretty thirsty if you're going to grab some blood and try to drink that. 48:16.240 --> 48:23.440 Anyway, so let's go back to our text here, verse number four, Revelation chapter 15. 48:24.640 --> 48:25.140 So, 48:26.700 --> 48:31.420 Maybe there's other parts of Moses's songs that are put into it, but I mean I tend to think that 48:32.060 --> 48:36.220 you might maybe you'll get some of the other one. Maybe it's just like Moses's greatest hits or 48:36.220 --> 48:39.900 something and you're gonna sing some of all of it or something. I don't know. 48:40.700 --> 48:45.500 Maybe Moses is leading the music. I'm not sure. But verse four, 48:46.140 --> 48:53.180 Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? For thou only art holy. For all nations 48:53.180 --> 48:58.460 shall come and worship before thee, for thy judgments are made manifest. Those remnants 48:58.460 --> 49:03.580 of the people that don't take the mark of the beast, that don't worship the beast and take the 49:03.580 --> 49:06.380 mark and all that, they're going to come and worship before him. 49:07.100 --> 49:10.660 You know, there is going to be a millennial reign of Christ and he's going to be reigning 49:10.660 --> 49:11.660 and ruling over those. 49:11.660 --> 49:13.860 The nations are not going to be done. 49:13.860 --> 49:14.860 There's still going to be nations. 49:14.860 --> 49:16.100 There's still going to be Egypt. 49:16.100 --> 49:19.940 There's still going to be other places, maybe not America. 49:19.940 --> 49:21.660 They're not in the Bible anymore. 49:21.660 --> 49:27.740 I mean, besides Babylon, the New Times Babylon, verse 5, and after that I looked and behold 49:27.740 --> 49:32.100 the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was open. 49:32.800 --> 49:35.320 Now, so what does that tell you? 49:35.320 --> 49:38.000 That, well, that there's a temple up there. 49:38.000 --> 49:42.380 There is a tabernacle up there, and it's opened, okay? 49:42.380 --> 49:46.080 And so that proves that these things do exist up in heaven. 49:46.080 --> 49:47.880 And I think it's weird when people just think 49:47.880 --> 49:49.180 that that's not the case. 49:49.600 --> 49:55.740 And, you know, the Bible talks about how when Jesus' sacrifice, it says, it's like even 49:55.740 --> 49:58.580 talking about heaven, that it's cleansed of better things than these. 49:58.580 --> 50:04.160 You know, talking about the blood of Christ, how it cleanses, you know, because like, when 50:04.160 --> 50:08.360 they had to do these blood animal sacrifices to cleanse the temple, to cleanse the priest, 50:08.360 --> 50:12.500 and they had to do all these different washings and carnal ordinances, but Jesus' sacrifice 50:12.500 --> 50:15.640 did that for the things on earth. 50:15.640 --> 50:17.600 But like as soon as he died in the veil ramp- 50:17.600 --> 50:24.640 and Twain, there was nothing for that temple that was down here, it ceased to be important 50:24.640 --> 50:29.200 at all for any reason except for maybe just telling us where the location of things are. 50:29.500 --> 50:33.500 where the holiest place is, where the Temple Mount is, Tom Mcmurtry, 50:35.420 --> 50:40.220 where all these things are located at that we need to know. But as far as it being important 50:40.220 --> 50:45.100 for us anymore, it's not important as far as we have to go there for any reasons. 50:45.100 --> 50:52.140 Those animal sacrifices meant nothing anymore after that. But people act like 50:53.820 --> 50:56.780 heaven didn't have to be cleansed for any reason either or something. 50:57.700 --> 51:06.180 But didn't Satan fall from heaven? Didn't he sin? I mean, where was he at when he sinned? 51:07.940 --> 51:14.980 Was he in heaven? Where were the angels at when they sinned? Were they in heaven? So, I mean... 51:17.200 --> 51:19.200 Did Jesus have to cleanse the things of heaven too? 51:19.480 --> 51:23.920 That his blood does his blood cleanse those things too? Of course it does. That's what the Bible says. 51:24.380 --> 51:28.280 You know, I'm not gonna get super into it because there's not a lot said about it 51:28.280 --> 51:32.340 but it does say that those things were cleansed by better things than these. 51:33.200 --> 51:36.860 Yeah, and exactly the tabernacle is a pattern. 51:38.100 --> 51:42.400 Moses was given a pattern of the things that were in heaven and he was told to build those things 51:42.920 --> 51:49.440 Based upon the pattern, you know the the blueprints that God gave him basically in his mind or is what he built 51:49.900 --> 51:53.580 So, I mean, do with that what you want. 51:53.580 --> 51:56.080 And so I do think there was a literal mercy seat. 51:56.080 --> 52:00.700 I do think there was a literal place where God, Jesus and God met, where he places blood 52:00.700 --> 52:06.160 there, which people, for some reason, that part's symbolic in people's minds, but nothing 52:06.160 --> 52:07.420 else was. 52:07.420 --> 52:08.420 Just that part was symbolic. 52:08.420 --> 52:12.700 The blood was symbolic, except for he actually did shed it, but it didn't have to go with 52:12.700 --> 52:14.940 him to heaven and all that stuff. 52:14.940 --> 52:17.180 People just get stupid about things like that. 52:17.180 --> 52:17.900 I think 52:17.900 --> 52:23.580 that those he literally had to die at even on the Passover day because it had to literally be 52:23.580 --> 52:31.180 fulfilled like to the T. That's why he had his Passover with his disciples the night before 52:32.540 --> 52:37.180 because it's kind of hard to eat the Passover with your disciples when you're dying at the same time. 52:38.700 --> 52:42.620 He did he had his Passover by himself. He was the Passover. 52:43.600 --> 52:48.800 I mean, he literally died at the time that the Passover is supposed to die. 52:48.800 --> 52:53.840 And he's like, I desire to have this Passover with you because, you know, he's going to 52:53.840 --> 52:57.240 eat, but he's not going to be able to eat, you know, to do those things with the disciples 52:57.240 --> 53:01.200 until they're in heaven with him someday and with us. 53:01.200 --> 53:02.200 So verse six. 53:02.200 --> 53:02.600 Thanks for watching! 53:02.900 --> 53:08.660 And the seven angels came out of the temple, having the seven plagues, clothed in pure and 53:08.660 --> 53:14.820 white linen, and having their breasts girded with golden girdles." So those are belts basically. 53:15.460 --> 53:23.940 And one of the four beasts gave the seven angels seven golden vials full of the wrath of God, 53:23.940 --> 53:28.100 who liveth forever and ever. 53:28.800 --> 53:30.760 It looks like I'm missing another verse. 53:30.760 --> 53:36.520 Okay, and the temple was filled with the smoke of the glory of God and from his power, and 53:36.520 --> 53:42.520 no man was able to enter into the temple till the seven plagues of the seven angels were 53:42.520 --> 53:43.520 fulfilled. 53:43.520 --> 53:47.560 So, it's kind of giving us the cliffhanger here until next week. 53:47.560 --> 53:51.960 So, basically we're done with this chapter, but it's kind of a buildup of what's going 53:51.960 --> 53:53.320 to happen next. 53:53.320 --> 53:53.700 Good. 53:53.900 --> 53:59.660 Notice that these angels come out of the temple. So is there a temple in heaven? Yes, there is and 54:00.580 --> 54:05.320 So basically these golden vials are the final 54:06.180 --> 54:14.200 Plagues and again, they're telling this is telling us about the vials only but the angel again. This is 54:15.100 --> 54:21.380 The trumpets hit and then it goes trumpet, vial, trumpet, vial, trumpet, vial in sequential order like that. 54:21.380 --> 54:24.760 So just as your paper says like this and then I'll... 54:25.200 --> 54:28.720 I already proved it in another sermon, but I mean we'll probably go over it a little bit more 54:29.440 --> 54:34.400 next week. So let's pray. Lord, we thank you so much for the book of Revelation and we pray that 54:34.400 --> 54:39.600 you just help us to open the eyes of our understanding through your Holy Spirit, 54:39.600 --> 54:45.360 through the scriptures. Lord, help us to believe what the Bible says. Help us not add things that 54:45.360 --> 54:50.800 in our mind that aren't really there. Help us to see what the Bible says and believe it. Help us to 54:51.700 --> 55:00.100 take the things that maybe we had earlier preconceived thoughts about and just when 55:00.100 --> 55:05.300 the Bible teaches us something that we believed wrong, that we would just change our minds 55:05.300 --> 55:10.780 about that and not be too proud to change on the things that we believed before and 55:10.780 --> 55:11.380 that we believe. 55:12.000 --> 55:15.600 Exactly what your word says Lord and help us to be pliable in these things 55:16.040 --> 55:20.960 Help us to be teachable and we thank you for a great day in church and a beautiful day outside 55:20.960 --> 55:26.600 We thank you for all these people that were here on Sunday night to hear your word preached in Jesus name. We pray amen
