Welcome to the final chapter of the of The Days of Noah. 6 00:00:54,137 --> 00:00:56,223 I'm your host Jeff Reich. 7 00:00:56,223 --> 00:00:58,225 Noah gave his last solemn appeal to the 8 00:00:58,225 --> 00:00:59,977 people as they stood before the ark. 9 00:00:59,977 --> 00:01:03,313 And at that time, their decisions were sealed. 10 00:01:03,313 --> 00:01:05,858 Since 1844, the message of Noah has been 11 00:01:05,858 --> 00:01:08,068 repeated by the three angel's messages 12 00:01:08,068 --> 00:01:10,028 which will continue to grow as they proclaim 13 00:01:10,028 --> 00:01:11,572 their final appeal. 14 00:01:11,572 --> 00:01:13,156 There's not much time left before the 15 00:01:13,156 --> 00:01:15,492 Mark of the Beast crisis will break upon the world 16 00:01:15,492 --> 00:01:17,828 and will bring all to a point of decision. 17 00:01:17,828 --> 00:01:20,831 To accept or reject the invitation into the ark 18 00:01:20,831 --> 00:01:22,249 of the everlasting covenant. 19 00:01:23,458 --> 00:01:26,879 The purpose of this crisis is to try the character of men. 20 00:01:26,879 --> 00:01:30,424 To see whether selfishness or the selfless love of God 21 00:01:30,424 --> 00:01:31,508 reigns in the heart. 22 00:01:32,926 --> 00:01:35,304 The crisis will not develop the faith of any, 23 00:01:35,304 --> 00:01:37,097 but will reveal whether or not there's any 24 00:01:37,097 --> 00:01:39,600 abiding trust in the promises of God. 25 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:40,893 And after the warnings have been given 26 00:01:40,893 --> 00:01:43,020 and the last heartfelt plea to enter into 27 00:01:43,020 --> 00:01:45,814 the Ark of the everlasting covenant is finished, 28 00:01:45,814 --> 00:01:47,316 the door of salvation will close 29 00:01:47,316 --> 00:01:49,484 just as it did in the Days of Noah. 30 00:01:49,484 --> 00:01:51,360 After the Close of Probation, 31 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:53,113 the seven last plagues will be poured out 32 00:01:53,113 --> 00:01:55,365 on the rejecters of Gods mercy. 33 00:01:55,365 --> 00:01:57,451 And when these plagues are finished, 34 00:01:57,451 --> 00:01:59,536 Jesus will come again. 35 00:01:59,536 --> 00:02:01,914 The second coming of Christ is the culmination 36 00:02:01,914 --> 00:02:03,457 of the Christians hope. 37 00:02:03,457 --> 00:02:05,751 But few understand how to be ready. 38 00:02:05,751 --> 00:02:07,669 For Jesus will not return this time 39 00:02:07,669 --> 00:02:09,670 veiled in the weakness of humanity. 40 00:02:09,670 --> 00:02:12,257 He'll come in the power and the glory of God 41 00:02:12,257 --> 00:02:13,759 as a consuming fire. 42 00:02:14,635 --> 00:02:16,178 - [Narrator] "The day of the Lord will come 43 00:02:16,178 --> 00:02:18,388 "as a thief of the night in which the heavens 44 00:02:18,430 --> 00:02:20,641 shall pass away with a great noise." 45 00:02:20,641 --> 00:02:23,185 And the elements shall melt with a fervent heat. 46 00:02:23,185 --> 00:02:26,563 And the heavens being on fire, shall be dissolved. 47 00:02:26,563 --> 00:02:28,440 A fire goeth before Him 48 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,984 and burneth up His enemies round about. 49 00:02:30,984 --> 00:02:32,861 The hills melted like wax at the 50 00:02:32,861 --> 00:02:34,112 presence of the Lord. 51 00:02:34,112 --> 00:02:36,615 At the presence of the Lord of the whole earth, 52 00:02:36,615 --> 00:02:39,451 the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the heaven, 53 00:02:39,451 --> 00:02:40,994 and the beasts of the field, 54 00:02:40,994 --> 00:02:43,664 and all creeping things that creep upon the earth, 55 00:02:43,664 --> 00:02:46,291 and all the men that are upon the face of the earth 56 00:02:46,291 --> 00:02:48,126 shall shake at my presence. 57 00:02:48,126 --> 00:02:50,003 And the mountains shall be thrown down, 58 00:02:50,003 --> 00:02:51,755 and the steep places shall fall, 59 00:02:51,755 --> 00:02:54,341 and every wall shall fall to the ground. 60 00:02:54,341 --> 00:02:56,718 All the cities thereof were broken down 61 00:02:56,718 --> 00:02:58,470 at the presence of the Lord. 62 00:02:58,470 --> 00:03:00,806 The earth is utterly broken down, 63 00:03:00,806 --> 00:03:02,766 the earth is clean dissolved, 64 00:03:02,766 --> 00:03:05,018 the earth is moved exceedingly, 65 00:03:05,018 --> 00:03:07,938 the earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard 66 00:03:07,938 --> 00:03:10,190 and shall be removed like a cottage. 67 00:03:10,190 --> 00:03:13,277 Our God shall come and shall not keep silence. 68 00:03:13,277 --> 00:03:15,654 A fire shall devour before Him 69 00:03:15,654 --> 00:03:18,740 and it shall be very tempestuous round about Him. 70 00:03:18,740 --> 00:03:21,785 The mountains quake at Him and the hills melt, 71 00:03:21,785 --> 00:03:24,079 and the earth is burned at His presence. 72 00:03:24,079 --> 00:03:27,040 Yea the world and all that dwell therein." 73 00:03:28,208 --> 00:03:31,128 (slow paced music) 74 00:03:36,966 --> 00:03:39,136 - The mission of the three angel's messages 75 00:03:39,136 --> 00:03:40,929 is to prepare people to stand in the 76 00:03:40,929 --> 00:03:43,055 presence of Jesus at His coming. 77 00:03:43,055 --> 00:03:45,601 And the third angel's message makes a solemn announcement 78 00:03:45,601 --> 00:03:47,769 regarding those who are not prepared. 79 00:03:48,770 --> 00:03:50,522 - [Narrator] "He shall be tormented with fire 80 00:03:50,522 --> 00:03:53,525 and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, 81 00:03:53,525 --> 00:03:55,527 and in the presence of the Lamb." 82 00:03:55,527 --> 00:03:57,029 [Doug] It's really an invitation. 83 00:03:57,029 --> 00:03:59,364 Not just to escape Babylon, 84 00:03:59,364 --> 00:04:03,702 but it's an invitation to come into God's presence. 85 00:04:03,702 --> 00:04:06,496 It's like not only avoid the flood, 86 00:04:06,496 --> 00:04:08,665 but come into the ark. 87 00:04:08,665 --> 00:04:09,875 - God will have a people 88 00:04:09,875 --> 00:04:11,919 prepared to stand in His presence. 89 00:04:11,919 --> 00:04:15,214 And they will understand the nature of the consuming fire 90 00:04:15,214 --> 00:04:16,714 and so must we. 91 00:04:16,714 --> 00:04:18,966 For when we understand this, we will know how 92 00:04:18,966 --> 00:04:23,972 to be prepared to meet him. (fire crackling) 93 00:04:24,348 --> 00:04:27,434 (light gentle music) 94 00:04:30,979 --> 00:04:34,399 [Ivor] When you look at the kingdom of heaven, 95 00:04:34,399 --> 00:04:36,068 when you look at God's throne, 96 00:04:36,068 --> 00:04:39,154 the Bible says that His throne, in Daniel 7 97 00:04:39,154 --> 00:04:42,616 was like "A fiery flame, and His wheels as burning fire." 98 00:04:42,616 --> 00:04:44,701 - If you go back to the original story 99 00:04:44,701 --> 00:04:46,537 of the fall of Lucifer, 100 00:04:46,537 --> 00:04:50,415 the Bible says, He walked amongst the fiery stones. 101 00:04:50,415 --> 00:04:51,625 - In Hebrews, the Bible says that 102 00:04:51,625 --> 00:04:53,961 His angels are ministering flames. 103 00:04:53,961 --> 00:04:57,464 - Those that will be redeemed will stand one day 104 00:04:57,464 --> 00:05:01,718 on the "sea of glass mingled with fire." 105 00:05:01,718 --> 00:05:06,056 - Jeremiah says, "Was not His word like a fire in my bones." 106 00:05:06,056 --> 00:05:08,809 And then the Bible tells us in Deuteronomy 33, 107 00:05:08,809 --> 00:05:11,520 From Gods hand went forth "a fiery law." 108 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:13,939 [Walter] You look at just purely on what the Bible says, 109 00:05:13,939 --> 00:05:17,234 it says that "God is a consuming fire." 110 00:05:17,234 --> 00:05:19,152 [Ivor] Daniel says, "A fiery stream issued 111 00:05:19,152 --> 00:05:21,154 "and came forth from Him." 112 00:05:21,154 --> 00:05:23,282 So what you have here is this being 113 00:05:24,533 --> 00:05:25,909 of fire. 114 00:05:25,909 --> 00:05:29,162 - So God is fire. 115 00:05:29,162 --> 00:05:31,707 - What you have here is this picture 116 00:05:31,707 --> 00:05:35,794 that Heaven is filled with fire as it were. 117 00:05:35,794 --> 00:05:37,129 Most people think of a place of fire, 118 00:05:37,129 --> 00:05:38,213 they're thinking hell. 119 00:05:39,214 --> 00:05:42,384 Why does God manifest Himself as fire? 120 00:05:42,384 --> 00:05:45,804 Why is He surrounded by so much fire? 121 00:05:45,804 --> 00:05:48,432 The Bible tells us in the book Song of Solomon 122 00:05:48,432 --> 00:05:51,018 that love is like a flame. 123 00:05:51,018 --> 00:05:53,520 [Narrator] "For love is strong as death; 124 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,398 jealousy is cruel as the grave: 125 00:05:56,398 --> 00:05:59,067 the coals thereof are coals of fire, 126 00:05:59,067 --> 00:06:01,361 which hath a most vehement flame. 127 00:06:01,361 --> 00:06:03,989 Many waters cannot quench love, 128 00:06:03,989 --> 00:06:05,741 neither can the floods drown it." 129 00:06:05,741 --> 00:06:08,327 [Ivor] Fire is a symbol of love. 130 00:06:08,327 --> 00:06:10,787 So it's not that God is trying to scare people 131 00:06:10,787 --> 00:06:12,331 or scare us. 132 00:06:12,331 --> 00:06:14,458 It's that He manifests Himself as fire 133 00:06:14,458 --> 00:06:17,669 because fire is heaven's symbol of love. 134 00:06:17,669 --> 00:06:21,131 God wants us to be able to dwell in His presence, 135 00:06:21,131 --> 00:06:23,175 but because we have sinned, 136 00:06:23,175 --> 00:06:26,428 we have become fearful of that fire. 137 00:06:26,428 --> 00:06:28,680 - Sin is a combustible material. 138 00:06:29,765 --> 00:06:32,601 And sin cannot exist in the presence of a holy God. 139 00:06:32,601 --> 00:06:36,396 - In our sinful condition, if we appear before God, 140 00:06:37,356 --> 00:06:39,816 we would be extinguished in an instant. 141 00:06:39,816 --> 00:06:43,153 - So the whole purpose is, how can I get man 142 00:06:43,153 --> 00:06:45,614 to again stand in my presence 143 00:06:45,614 --> 00:06:48,450 without being destroyed, without being consumed? 144 00:06:50,494 --> 00:06:52,496 - Well cover to cover, the Bible tells a story 145 00:06:52,496 --> 00:06:55,165 of a heavenly Father who's been separated from His children 146 00:06:55,165 --> 00:06:58,168 and who longs to be reunited with them. 147 00:06:58,168 --> 00:07:00,295 There's one illustration above all others 148 00:07:00,295 --> 00:07:01,964 that shows us the process by which God 149 00:07:01,964 --> 00:07:04,174 will prepare people to dwell with Him. 150 00:07:04,174 --> 00:07:06,468 And that is the sanctuary. 151 00:07:06,468 --> 00:07:08,554 For this is the very reason it was given. 152 00:07:09,721 --> 00:07:11,765 [Narrator] "And let them make me a sanctuary, 153 00:07:11,765 --> 00:07:13,517 "that I may dwell among them." 154 00:07:14,893 --> 00:07:18,480 [Ivor] The purpose of the sanctuary was 155 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:22,901 to instruct man of what his condition must be 156 00:07:22,901 --> 00:07:27,239 in order for God to dwell with them. 157 00:07:27,239 --> 00:07:29,992 God wants to dwell in His people. 158 00:07:29,992 --> 00:07:32,327 But He cannot dwell in them 159 00:07:32,327 --> 00:07:34,538 while they hold onto sin. 160 00:07:34,538 --> 00:07:36,915 - If you give up your sin. 161 00:07:36,915 --> 00:07:39,877 And you place it on the only one 162 00:07:39,877 --> 00:07:42,462 who is able to remove your sin. 163 00:07:44,047 --> 00:07:46,466 Well then you can continue to live 164 00:07:46,466 --> 00:07:49,261 because He's not a destroyer of humans, 165 00:07:49,261 --> 00:07:51,555 He's a destroyer of sin. 166 00:07:51,555 --> 00:07:53,599 - God ultimately doesn't want to consume us, 167 00:07:53,599 --> 00:07:56,476 He wants to consume sin, but not us. 168 00:07:56,476 --> 00:07:57,603 (fire crackling) 169 00:07:57,603 --> 00:07:58,979 [Dave] In the sanctuary, interestingly enough, 170 00:07:58,979 --> 00:08:01,982 is God's plan and His system 171 00:08:01,982 --> 00:08:03,483 for doing away with sin. 172 00:08:03,483 --> 00:08:08,488 [Ivor] He separates sin from the individual 173 00:08:08,488 --> 00:08:11,783 and He can focus on destroying the sin. 174 00:08:13,035 --> 00:08:14,119 That's a purpose. 175 00:08:15,537 --> 00:08:18,123 When the children of Israel were being 176 00:08:18,123 --> 00:08:21,376 led out of Egyptian captivity, 177 00:08:21,376 --> 00:08:24,296 you find the process of the sanctuary 178 00:08:24,296 --> 00:08:26,882 leading them from captivity, 179 00:08:26,882 --> 00:08:29,051 preparing them to enter into the Promised Land. 180 00:08:29,051 --> 00:08:31,720 Moses commanded the children of Israel 181 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:33,679 to sacrifice a lamb. 182 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:36,099 Which would point us to the altar of sacrifice. 183 00:08:36,099 --> 00:08:38,684 [Doug] After the children of Israel sacrificed the lamb, 184 00:08:38,684 --> 00:08:40,479 then they came to the Red Sea. 185 00:08:40,479 --> 00:08:42,356 Paul tells us in 1st Corinthians 10 186 00:08:42,356 --> 00:08:44,149 that represents baptism. 187 00:08:44,149 --> 00:08:45,734 - Which points us to the laver, 188 00:08:45,734 --> 00:08:47,736 the next article of furniture. 189 00:08:47,736 --> 00:08:49,571 [Narrator] "All passed through the sea, 190 00:08:49,571 --> 00:08:51,990 and were all baptized unto Moses 191 00:08:51,990 --> 00:08:54,326 in the cloud and in the sea." 192 00:08:54,326 --> 00:08:56,286 [Doug] We need to be baptized in His spirit. 193 00:08:56,286 --> 00:08:57,412 We need to be cleansed. 194 00:08:57,412 --> 00:09:00,707 Baptism represents a cleansing, a new birth. 195 00:09:00,707 --> 00:09:02,459 - After they crossed the Red Sea, 196 00:09:02,459 --> 00:09:04,962 God rains Manna down from heaven. 197 00:09:04,962 --> 00:09:07,798 Which is a symbol of the Table of Shrewbread. 198 00:09:07,798 --> 00:09:09,091 The word of God. 199 00:09:10,092 --> 00:09:13,887 God now says to them, "You are my royal priesthood, 200 00:09:13,887 --> 00:09:15,973 my holy nation." 201 00:09:15,973 --> 00:09:18,559 That seven branch candlestick 202 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,854 was a symbol of the people of God. 203 00:09:21,854 --> 00:09:23,230 [Narrator] "I will also give thee 204 00:09:23,230 --> 00:09:25,148 for a light to the Gentiles, 205 00:09:25,148 --> 00:09:27,109 that thou mayest be my salvation 206 00:09:27,109 --> 00:09:29,236 unto the end of the earth." 207 00:09:29,236 --> 00:09:33,031 - In Exodus 19, God instructs Moses to tell the children 208 00:09:33,031 --> 00:09:36,827 of Israel to spend three days in preparation. 209 00:09:36,827 --> 00:09:38,704 They were to be praying, pleading, 210 00:09:38,704 --> 00:09:40,789 preparing their hearts as it were. 211 00:09:40,789 --> 00:09:44,918 Which points us to the altar of incense, prayer. 212 00:09:44,918 --> 00:09:49,173 Because in Exodus 20, God would come down 213 00:09:49,173 --> 00:09:51,258 and speak to them the 10 commandments. 214 00:09:53,719 --> 00:09:56,263 And so you have the law of God being spoken, 215 00:09:56,263 --> 00:09:57,848 you have His presence. 216 00:09:57,848 --> 00:10:00,559 So the children of Israel were basically in essence 217 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,352 looking into the most holy place. 218 00:10:02,352 --> 00:10:04,855 So you see this pattern of the sanctuary 219 00:10:04,855 --> 00:10:08,275 leading from bondage into the presence of God. 220 00:10:08,275 --> 00:10:11,403 Even illustrated in how the children of Israel 221 00:10:11,403 --> 00:10:13,947 went from bondage to the presence of God. 222 00:10:14,948 --> 00:10:17,951 [Narrator] "The earth shook, the heavens also dropped 223 00:10:17,951 --> 00:10:19,494 at the presence of God: 224 00:10:19,494 --> 00:10:23,248 even Sinai itself was moved at the presence of God, 225 00:10:23,248 --> 00:10:25,125 the God of Israel." 226 00:10:25,125 --> 00:10:27,127 [Jeff] Jesus' last request to His Father was to 227 00:10:27,127 --> 00:10:28,670 dwell with those who love Him. 228 00:10:28,670 --> 00:10:31,423 That they might experience the full revelation of His love 229 00:10:31,423 --> 00:10:33,759 without being consumed by it. 230 00:10:33,759 --> 00:10:35,844 The two promises of the everlasting covenant 231 00:10:35,844 --> 00:10:37,095 are for this purpose. 232 00:10:37,095 --> 00:10:39,890 They declare Gods promise to show mercy to man 233 00:10:39,932 --> 00:10:41,308 and sanctify him. 234 00:10:41,308 --> 00:10:43,727 That the prayer of Christ might be answered. 235 00:10:43,769 --> 00:10:45,771 It was amazing, yet not surprising 236 00:10:45,771 --> 00:10:48,190 that we find the symbols of these two promises 237 00:10:48,190 --> 00:10:51,735 manifest by the glory of God in the most holy place. 238 00:10:52,819 --> 00:10:54,821 [Narrator] "For the Son of man shall come 239 00:10:54,821 --> 00:10:57,699 in the glory of His Father with His angels." 240 00:10:58,784 --> 00:11:01,078 - The prophets saw the coming of Christ in vision 241 00:11:01,078 --> 00:11:02,371 and were astonished. 242 00:11:02,371 --> 00:11:04,498 Isaiah said, "Who among us shall dwell with 243 00:11:04,498 --> 00:11:05,874 the devouring fire? 244 00:11:05,874 --> 00:11:08,961 Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?" 245 00:11:08,961 --> 00:11:11,755 Then Isaiah answered his own question and says, 246 00:11:11,755 --> 00:11:14,716 "He that walketh righteously." 247 00:11:15,634 --> 00:11:17,261 - We're told that it's the righteous 248 00:11:17,261 --> 00:11:19,638 that will dwell with the everlasting fire. 249 00:11:21,139 --> 00:11:22,850 [Jeff] So how do we enter into the presence 250 00:11:22,850 --> 00:11:24,059 of God at His coming? 251 00:11:24,977 --> 00:11:26,979 There are few better examples than Noah, 252 00:11:26,979 --> 00:11:29,565 who was called a preacher of righteousness. 253 00:11:32,109 --> 00:11:33,443 [Allen] When we take a look at the idea 254 00:11:33,443 --> 00:11:35,571 of coming into God's presence, 255 00:11:35,571 --> 00:11:40,075 this idea is set forth in Noah's time 256 00:11:40,075 --> 00:11:44,705 in that Noah and his family came into God's presence 257 00:11:44,705 --> 00:11:48,667 by faith entering into the ark. 258 00:11:48,667 --> 00:11:50,502 [Narrator] "And the Lord said unto Noah, 259 00:11:50,502 --> 00:11:53,672 Come thou and all thy house in the ark." 260 00:11:53,672 --> 00:11:56,925 When God said come, it was an invitation for Noah 261 00:11:56,925 --> 00:11:59,428 to go to the same place where God was. 262 00:11:59,428 --> 00:12:03,098 And according to this verse, God was in the ark. 263 00:12:03,098 --> 00:12:05,225 - What God was inviting Noah to do 264 00:12:05,225 --> 00:12:06,768 was to come into His presence. 265 00:12:06,768 --> 00:12:09,605 That is ultimately the essence of the covenant. 266 00:12:09,605 --> 00:12:10,731 It's an agreement. 267 00:12:11,607 --> 00:12:13,525 It's like a marriage. 268 00:12:13,525 --> 00:12:16,528 You and I are going to dwell together. 269 00:12:16,528 --> 00:12:20,407 And this is the very same thing 270 00:12:20,407 --> 00:12:22,868 as the covenant in our day. 271 00:12:22,868 --> 00:12:27,706 It is God seeking to bring us into His presence. 272 00:12:27,706 --> 00:12:29,166 [Narrator] And the reason why Noah was 273 00:12:29,166 --> 00:12:31,585 able to enter into the presence of God 274 00:12:31,585 --> 00:12:33,128 is given in the same verse. 275 00:12:33,128 --> 00:12:34,922 "For thee have I seen righteous 276 00:12:34,922 --> 00:12:37,049 before me in this generation." 277 00:12:37,966 --> 00:12:39,551 - Noah was righteous. 278 00:12:39,551 --> 00:12:40,511 He built the ark. 279 00:12:42,179 --> 00:12:43,889 He couldn't see any rain. 280 00:12:43,889 --> 00:12:45,599 He couldn't see any flood. 281 00:12:45,599 --> 00:12:47,434 He had to move forward in faith. 282 00:12:47,434 --> 00:12:51,438 And that's probably the single defining characteristic 283 00:12:51,438 --> 00:12:55,317 that set Noah apart from everyone else. 284 00:12:55,317 --> 00:12:57,986 [Narrator] "By faith Noah, being warned of God 285 00:12:57,986 --> 00:13:00,948 of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, 286 00:13:00,948 --> 00:13:03,617 prepared an ark to the saving of his house; 287 00:13:03,617 --> 00:13:05,953 by the which he condemned the world, 288 00:13:05,953 --> 00:13:08,205 and became heir of the righteousness 289 00:13:08,205 --> 00:13:09,706 which is by faith." 290 00:13:09,706 --> 00:13:12,835 - How did Noah become an heir of righteousness? 291 00:13:12,835 --> 00:13:17,339 We read in this verse it was because he prepared an ark. 292 00:13:20,133 --> 00:13:22,553 Noah's ark was in a sense a sanctuary 293 00:13:22,553 --> 00:13:24,805 and a resting place for God's presence. 294 00:13:24,805 --> 00:13:27,182 And we too have an ark to prepare. 295 00:13:27,182 --> 00:13:28,934 We are to be living sanctuaries 296 00:13:28,934 --> 00:13:30,602 that God may dwell in us. 297 00:13:30,602 --> 00:13:33,105 As Paul said, "Know ye not that your body is 298 00:13:33,105 --> 00:13:35,649 the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, 299 00:13:35,649 --> 00:13:38,735 which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?" 300 00:13:38,735 --> 00:13:40,737 Through the process of the sanctuary, 301 00:13:40,737 --> 00:13:44,324 as man draws nearer to God, it is he himself 302 00:13:44,324 --> 00:13:46,994 that is being changed and made into a living 303 00:13:46,994 --> 00:13:49,079 sanctuary for the presence of God. 304 00:13:50,122 --> 00:13:54,126 - So the sanctuary is like the changing booth if you will. 305 00:13:54,126 --> 00:13:55,878 This is where we enter in 306 00:13:55,878 --> 00:13:58,630 and a transformation happens. 307 00:13:58,630 --> 00:14:02,176 It's the actual change from unrighteousness 308 00:14:03,260 --> 00:14:06,847 to righteousness that allows us 309 00:14:06,847 --> 00:14:11,768 to ultimately be able to stand and see God face to face. 310 00:14:11,768 --> 00:14:13,604 [Narrator] God gave Noah the blueprint 311 00:14:13,604 --> 00:14:15,731 for His plan to save Noah. 312 00:14:15,731 --> 00:14:18,025 And Noah cooperated with God's plan 313 00:14:18,025 --> 00:14:19,818 by preparing the ark. 314 00:14:19,818 --> 00:14:22,613 In the same way, God has given us the blueprint 315 00:14:22,613 --> 00:14:25,490 for the sanctuary and we are to cooperate 316 00:14:25,490 --> 00:14:27,451 with God's plan for our salvation. 317 00:14:27,451 --> 00:14:30,162 By preparing to dwell in His presence 318 00:14:30,162 --> 00:14:32,998 as we walk through the sanctuary process. 319 00:14:32,998 --> 00:14:35,834 (water splashing) 320 00:14:37,294 --> 00:14:40,130 "For ye are the temple of the living God; 321 00:14:40,130 --> 00:14:43,175 as God hath said, I will dwell in them, 322 00:14:43,175 --> 00:14:46,470 and walk in them; and I will be their God, 323 00:14:46,470 --> 00:14:49,056 and they shall be my people." 324 00:14:49,056 --> 00:14:51,266 - If you look at the Old Testament sanctuary, 325 00:14:52,351 --> 00:14:55,896 the moment that all the articles of furniture 326 00:14:55,896 --> 00:14:59,233 were set in place, that's when the presence 327 00:14:59,233 --> 00:15:03,612 of God filled the tabernacle and sanctified it. 328 00:15:03,612 --> 00:15:05,697 Ultimately, what God is trying to do, 329 00:15:05,697 --> 00:15:07,157 is He's trying to get those articles 330 00:15:07,157 --> 00:15:10,494 of furniture in place in us. 331 00:15:10,494 --> 00:15:12,287 That means the altar of sacrifice. 332 00:15:12,287 --> 00:15:14,248 We're living a life of sacrifice. 333 00:15:14,248 --> 00:15:16,583 We're living a life of purity, laver. 334 00:15:16,583 --> 00:15:18,627 We're living a life based upon the word of God. 335 00:15:18,627 --> 00:15:19,878 We're letting our light shine 336 00:15:19,878 --> 00:15:21,505 on the seven branch candlestick. 337 00:15:21,505 --> 00:15:23,590 We are interceding, we're praying, 338 00:15:23,590 --> 00:15:26,260 we're communing with God and we're keeping His law. 339 00:15:26,260 --> 00:15:29,304 Ultimately, when God has a people 340 00:15:29,304 --> 00:15:32,850 in which those articles of furniture are set in place 341 00:15:32,850 --> 00:15:37,271 and functioning, Jesus will come again 342 00:15:37,271 --> 00:15:40,190 to tabernacle within those sanctuaries. 343 00:15:40,190 --> 00:15:41,483 Both in a spiritual sense 344 00:15:41,483 --> 00:15:43,694 and a very literal sense. 345 00:15:43,694 --> 00:15:47,197 His presence will sanctify us 346 00:15:47,197 --> 00:15:51,326 when we follow His blueprint for sanctification. 347 00:15:51,326 --> 00:15:54,246 (determined music) 348 00:16:00,419 --> 00:16:03,380 - Many Christians wonder why Jesus hasn't come yet. 349 00:16:03,380 --> 00:16:05,048 What is He waiting for? 350 00:16:05,048 --> 00:16:06,800 Well Jesus Himself told us that 351 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:09,720 "As the days of Noe were, so shall also 352 00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:11,972 the coming of the Son of man be." 353 00:16:11,972 --> 00:16:13,932 So then we may ask ourselves, 354 00:16:13,932 --> 00:16:16,518 what was God waiting for in the days of Noah, 355 00:16:16,518 --> 00:16:18,353 before He sent the flood? 356 00:16:18,353 --> 00:16:20,772 Peter says, "The longsuffering of God waited 357 00:16:20,772 --> 00:16:24,401 in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing." 358 00:16:24,401 --> 00:16:27,613 God waited to send a flood while the ark was being prepared. 359 00:16:27,613 --> 00:16:30,324 And Jesus is waiting today for the same reason. 360 00:16:30,324 --> 00:16:32,409 He's not waiting for the multitudes of earth 361 00:16:32,409 --> 00:16:34,203 to sink further into sin. 362 00:16:34,203 --> 00:16:37,456 He's waiting for the few who will fully surrender to Him. 363 00:16:37,456 --> 00:16:40,042 That they might be prepared to be living vessels 364 00:16:40,042 --> 00:16:42,294 fit for the presence of God. 365 00:16:42,294 --> 00:16:45,714 (light determined music) 366 00:16:50,969 --> 00:16:52,596 - Need to be cleansed and purified. 367 00:16:52,596 --> 00:16:54,223 [Narrator] To prepare a people for the 368 00:16:54,223 --> 00:16:56,225 presence of Christ, is the purpose 369 00:16:56,225 --> 00:16:58,393 of the third angel's message. 370 00:16:58,393 --> 00:17:00,687 This is a warning about worshiping the beast 371 00:17:00,687 --> 00:17:03,023 and his image and receiving his mark. 372 00:17:04,107 --> 00:17:06,818 But this final conflict is ultimately to prepare 373 00:17:06,818 --> 00:17:09,738 a people to stand in the presence of the holy angels 374 00:17:09,738 --> 00:17:11,406 and in the presence of the Lamb. 375 00:17:14,284 --> 00:17:18,747 - So this message guides us into the most holy place 376 00:17:18,747 --> 00:17:21,458 into the presence of the Lamb. 377 00:17:21,458 --> 00:17:23,544 [Narrator] For this reason, the third angel's message 378 00:17:23,544 --> 00:17:25,838 and the sanctuary are linked together. 379 00:17:27,422 --> 00:17:30,342 [Stephen] The presence of God dwelt in the 380 00:17:30,342 --> 00:17:34,304 Old Testament sanctuary in the most holy place. 381 00:17:34,304 --> 00:17:36,974 And the high priest could only enter 382 00:17:36,974 --> 00:17:39,017 the most holy place once a year. 383 00:17:39,017 --> 00:17:42,646 However, the people were to follow 384 00:17:42,646 --> 00:17:46,775 the high priest into the most holy place by faith. 385 00:17:46,775 --> 00:17:48,527 [Narrator] "Having therefore, brethren, 386 00:17:48,527 --> 00:17:52,990 boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus." 387 00:17:52,990 --> 00:17:55,409 - Hebrews 10:19 talks about this idea 388 00:17:55,409 --> 00:17:58,579 of entering into the most holy place by faith. 389 00:17:59,454 --> 00:18:01,707 And really, this has been a very difficult 390 00:18:01,707 --> 00:18:04,626 concept for Christians to grasp. 391 00:18:04,626 --> 00:18:06,211 Because many of them, number one, 392 00:18:06,211 --> 00:18:09,423 don't understand that there is a sanctuary in heaven. 393 00:18:09,423 --> 00:18:13,135 But when they do get this concept, 394 00:18:13,135 --> 00:18:15,971 oftentimes they don't really know what that means. 395 00:18:15,971 --> 00:18:18,515 - The most holy place of the heavenly sanctuary 396 00:18:19,349 --> 00:18:22,561 contained the 10 commandments. 397 00:18:22,561 --> 00:18:25,731 And in the center of the 10 commandments 398 00:18:25,731 --> 00:18:28,108 was found the Sabbath. 399 00:18:28,108 --> 00:18:31,445 Which is the seal in the center of the commandments. 400 00:18:31,445 --> 00:18:33,614 This is a very important detail. 401 00:18:33,614 --> 00:18:36,450 Because the third angels message speaks 402 00:18:36,450 --> 00:18:39,786 about those who receive the Mark of the Beast. 403 00:18:39,786 --> 00:18:44,208 So the Sabbath commandment clearly connects 404 00:18:44,208 --> 00:18:48,295 the third angel's message with the sanctuary. 405 00:18:48,295 --> 00:18:50,130 Because the third angels message deals 406 00:18:50,130 --> 00:18:52,633 with the issue of Sabbath or Sunday, 407 00:18:52,633 --> 00:18:55,719 and the most holy place of course, has the law, 408 00:18:55,719 --> 00:18:59,097 and then the center of the law is contained the Sabbath. 409 00:18:59,097 --> 00:19:01,225 - When we take a look at the relationship 410 00:19:01,225 --> 00:19:03,477 of the third angels message of Revelation 14 411 00:19:03,477 --> 00:19:06,855 and how it relates to the most holy place, 412 00:19:06,855 --> 00:19:08,982 we get a really good understanding 413 00:19:08,982 --> 00:19:11,818 of what's going to happen to the righteous, 414 00:19:11,818 --> 00:19:13,820 and what's going to happen to the wicked. 415 00:19:13,820 --> 00:19:16,615 - Those who reject the three angels messages, 416 00:19:17,616 --> 00:19:21,453 particularly those who worship the beast and his image, 417 00:19:21,453 --> 00:19:24,623 and receive the mark, they will suffer 418 00:19:26,083 --> 00:19:27,793 the punishment of fire. 419 00:19:27,793 --> 00:19:29,711 It says in the third angel's message. 420 00:19:29,711 --> 00:19:31,922 They will not be able to abide 421 00:19:31,922 --> 00:19:33,423 in the presence of the fire. 422 00:19:33,423 --> 00:19:36,260 But they will be consumed by the fire. 423 00:19:36,260 --> 00:19:38,345 [Narrator] "And he shall be tormented with fire 424 00:19:38,345 --> 00:19:41,306 and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, 425 00:19:41,306 --> 00:19:43,809 and in the presence of the lamb." 426 00:19:43,809 --> 00:19:45,561 - Paul also gives the warning 427 00:19:45,561 --> 00:19:49,022 of the third angel's message in 2nd Thessalonians. 428 00:19:50,399 --> 00:19:53,360 - [Narrator] "And to you who are troubled rest with us, 429 00:19:53,360 --> 00:19:56,071 when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven 430 00:19:56,071 --> 00:19:58,740 with His mighty angels in flaming fire 431 00:19:58,740 --> 00:20:01,410 taking vengeance on them that know not God, 432 00:20:01,410 --> 00:20:04,830 and that obey not the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: 433 00:20:04,830 --> 00:20:07,457 who shall be punished with everlasting destruction 434 00:20:07,457 --> 00:20:09,209 from the presence of the Lord, 435 00:20:09,209 --> 00:20:11,295 and from the glory of His power." 436 00:20:12,713 --> 00:20:15,257 [Jeff] In this verse, the one affirmative statement 437 00:20:15,257 --> 00:20:17,593 that shows us how to prepare for that time 438 00:20:17,593 --> 00:20:19,928 when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed 439 00:20:19,928 --> 00:20:22,806 is given in the command, "Rest with us." 440 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:33,692 - Only those that have entered into the rest of Christ 441 00:20:33,692 --> 00:20:36,195 will be able to stand in the presence of Jesus. 442 00:20:36,195 --> 00:20:38,655 The third angel's message also warns us about those 443 00:20:38,655 --> 00:20:41,950 who reject entering into the Sabbath rest. 444 00:20:41,950 --> 00:20:44,745 [Narrator] "They have no rest day nor night, 445 00:20:44,745 --> 00:20:46,788 who worship the beast and his image, 446 00:20:46,788 --> 00:20:50,167 and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name." 447 00:20:50,167 --> 00:20:52,336 [Stephen] The third angel's message is actually 448 00:20:52,336 --> 00:20:56,131 warning people to not receive the Mark of the Beast, 449 00:20:56,131 --> 00:20:59,635 to not observe the counterfeit day of worship, 450 00:20:59,635 --> 00:21:03,764 but to keep the Sabbath which is the seal of God 451 00:21:03,764 --> 00:21:05,599 in honor of the great creator 452 00:21:05,599 --> 00:21:07,351 and in honor of the redeemer. 453 00:21:07,351 --> 00:21:09,811 - As that angel is flying it's pointing 454 00:21:10,854 --> 00:21:13,398 to the heavenly sanctuary, in particular, 455 00:21:13,398 --> 00:21:14,483 to the most holy place. 456 00:21:14,483 --> 00:21:15,400 Why? 457 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,111 Because how do we avoid the Mark of the Beast? 458 00:21:18,111 --> 00:21:21,990 By entering in by faith into the most holy place. 459 00:21:21,990 --> 00:21:25,035 [Jeff] In Psalms 91, David writes about those 460 00:21:25,035 --> 00:21:27,246 who have entered into the most holy place 461 00:21:27,246 --> 00:21:28,872 and says this. 462 00:21:28,872 --> 00:21:31,458 [Narrator] "There shall no evil befall thee, 463 00:21:31,458 --> 00:21:34,753 neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. 464 00:21:34,753 --> 00:21:37,840 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, 465 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:40,175 to keep thee in all thy ways." 466 00:21:41,134 --> 00:21:43,136 - When the seven last plagues are poured out, 467 00:21:43,136 --> 00:21:45,055 those who have entered into the most holy place 468 00:21:45,055 --> 00:21:46,890 by faith will not receive the plagues. 469 00:21:46,890 --> 00:21:49,560 And they will be protected by holy angels. 470 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:50,477 Why? 471 00:21:50,477 --> 00:21:53,230 Because David says in verse one, "He dwelleth in the 472 00:21:53,230 --> 00:21:55,357 secret place of the most High." 473 00:21:56,733 --> 00:22:00,946 The Bible also reveals the location of this secret place. 474 00:22:00,946 --> 00:22:02,698 [Narrator] "For in the time of trouble 475 00:22:02,698 --> 00:22:05,075 he shall hide me in his pavilion: 476 00:22:05,075 --> 00:22:08,370 in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me." 477 00:22:08,370 --> 00:22:10,330 - It is in the tabernacle or sanctuary 478 00:22:10,330 --> 00:22:12,541 that God's people will find refuge. 479 00:22:12,541 --> 00:22:15,502 And where in the sanctuary is this secret place? 480 00:22:15,502 --> 00:22:17,212 Again David writes this. 481 00:22:19,131 --> 00:22:20,424 [Narrator] "Thou shalt hide them in the 482 00:22:20,424 --> 00:22:22,676 "secret of thy presence." 483 00:22:22,676 --> 00:22:24,720 [Ivor] The secret place was a reference to the 484 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:27,931 most holy place in the sanctuary of God. 485 00:22:27,931 --> 00:22:30,851 Which is where the presence of God dwells. 486 00:22:30,851 --> 00:22:34,396 Those who have entered the most holy place by faith. 487 00:22:34,396 --> 00:22:35,230 (thunder cracking) 488 00:22:35,230 --> 00:22:39,193 Who are submitted to His law, submitted to His will, 489 00:22:39,193 --> 00:22:41,195 they are the ones that are in the secret 490 00:22:41,195 --> 00:22:42,988 place of the most high. 491 00:22:42,988 --> 00:22:45,908 (thunder cracking) 492 00:22:47,910 --> 00:22:51,622 Psalm 91 says that no plague will come near those. 493 00:22:58,295 --> 00:23:00,255 So it is very significant (calming music) 494 00:23:00,255 --> 00:23:02,341 to see that in the end of time when these 495 00:23:02,341 --> 00:23:03,800 plagues are poured out, 496 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:06,762 the ones who escape the plagues 497 00:23:06,762 --> 00:23:10,432 are those who are dwelling in the secret place. 498 00:23:10,432 --> 00:23:13,060 Those who have moved by faith 499 00:23:13,060 --> 00:23:16,396 into the most holy place, who accept Gods law, 500 00:23:16,396 --> 00:23:19,775 who accept His Sabbath, and are therefore 501 00:23:19,775 --> 00:23:21,652 dwelling in His presence. 502 00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:28,325 (thunder cracking) (gentle music) 503 00:23:38,252 --> 00:23:40,671 [Narrator] In the most holy place of the sanctuary 504 00:23:40,671 --> 00:23:44,174 there was the presence of God, the Ark of the Covenant. 505 00:23:44,174 --> 00:23:46,969 And inside the ark were the 10 commandments. 506 00:23:46,969 --> 00:23:49,137 Also called The Testimony. 507 00:23:49,137 --> 00:23:51,056 This scene of the throne room 508 00:23:51,056 --> 00:23:53,141 was symbolically depicted on earth 509 00:23:53,141 --> 00:23:54,810 in the days of Noah. 510 00:23:54,810 --> 00:23:57,521 Inside the ark was the presence of God. 511 00:23:57,521 --> 00:23:59,106 There was the ark itself. 512 00:23:59,106 --> 00:24:01,817 And inside the ark were the living testimonies 513 00:24:01,817 --> 00:24:06,029 upon whose hearts and minds the law of God had been written. 514 00:24:06,029 --> 00:24:08,949 They had entered the ark, but they had spiritually 515 00:24:08,949 --> 00:24:10,367 entered into the covenant. 516 00:24:10,367 --> 00:24:13,871 The most holy place and the presence of God. 517 00:24:13,871 --> 00:24:16,957 This scene is but a symbolic representation 518 00:24:16,957 --> 00:24:19,543 of that final day when those who have 519 00:24:19,543 --> 00:24:21,461 entered into the everlasting covenant 520 00:24:21,461 --> 00:24:24,756 shall stand in the presence of Christ at His coming. 521 00:24:26,383 --> 00:24:28,594 - It was Gods ideal to show man. 522 00:24:28,594 --> 00:24:31,180 Look, this is what I want for you. 523 00:24:31,180 --> 00:24:34,641 I want for you to be able to stand in my presence 524 00:24:34,641 --> 00:24:36,351 and not be consumed. 525 00:24:36,351 --> 00:24:38,187 Like Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. 526 00:24:39,938 --> 00:24:42,816 - And look at what happens here. 527 00:24:42,816 --> 00:24:45,027 They are told about down to the image 528 00:24:45,027 --> 00:24:46,486 after the music plays. 529 00:24:46,486 --> 00:24:48,238 The refuse to do so. 530 00:24:48,238 --> 00:24:50,073 They are then brought before the king. 531 00:24:50,073 --> 00:24:52,993 The king gives them another opportunity to do so. 532 00:24:52,993 --> 00:24:55,662 And he says, But if you don't, 533 00:24:55,662 --> 00:24:59,082 I will cast you into a burning fiery furnace. 534 00:24:59,082 --> 00:25:00,584 And of course they didn't. 535 00:25:00,584 --> 00:25:04,171 He heated the fire seven times hotter than it was before 536 00:25:04,171 --> 00:25:06,048 and he cast them in. 537 00:25:06,048 --> 00:25:06,965 - But they weren't consumed 538 00:25:06,965 --> 00:25:09,927 because of Gods presence was in there with them. 539 00:25:09,927 --> 00:25:13,889 But the guys who threw them into that fiery furnace, 540 00:25:13,889 --> 00:25:16,517 because they were not prepared for the presence of God, 541 00:25:16,517 --> 00:25:20,145 the same fire destroyed them that was like nothing 542 00:25:20,145 --> 00:25:22,481 to Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. 543 00:25:22,481 --> 00:25:25,692 - Why did these three young men not burn up? 544 00:25:26,693 --> 00:25:28,695 And the answer is plain. 545 00:25:28,695 --> 00:25:30,197 There was no sin left in them. 546 00:25:31,490 --> 00:25:34,076 They were so joined with Christ 547 00:25:34,076 --> 00:25:36,495 that He was with them in the fire. 548 00:25:36,495 --> 00:25:38,997 Their characters were so refined 549 00:25:38,997 --> 00:25:43,418 that they were spotless before the Son of God. 550 00:25:43,418 --> 00:25:46,213 - Those who have accepted Jesus as Savior and Lord, 551 00:25:46,213 --> 00:25:47,840 and who have allowed the grace of God 552 00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:50,050 to cleanse their lives from sin, 553 00:25:50,050 --> 00:25:51,677 the fire will not consume them. 554 00:25:51,677 --> 00:25:53,971 - Because they had obeyed God, 555 00:25:53,971 --> 00:25:56,515 they were protected and purified by Christ, 556 00:25:56,515 --> 00:25:59,434 they could stay in those burnings and be unharmed. 557 00:25:59,434 --> 00:26:01,436 And yet on the other hand, 558 00:26:01,436 --> 00:26:02,771 those who threw them in, 559 00:26:02,771 --> 00:26:04,857 they didn't even make it in and they were destroyed 560 00:26:04,857 --> 00:26:06,817 by that same fire. 561 00:26:06,817 --> 00:26:08,861 - Those who are righteous 562 00:26:08,861 --> 00:26:13,156 will be clothed with the same righteousness of Christ. 563 00:26:13,156 --> 00:26:16,577 There will be no combustible material to burn. 564 00:26:16,577 --> 00:26:19,079 And therefore, they will be able to stand 565 00:26:19,079 --> 00:26:21,248 in the presence of the Lord. 566 00:26:21,248 --> 00:26:24,168 Whereas the wicked will be consumed 567 00:26:24,168 --> 00:26:26,545 by the very sin that they harbor. 568 00:26:26,545 --> 00:26:28,755 - And so our God is a consuming fire. 569 00:26:28,755 --> 00:26:31,258 And we need to now allow 570 00:26:31,258 --> 00:26:33,844 Christ and His spirit to 571 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:38,140 purify us and to sanctify us 572 00:26:38,140 --> 00:26:40,309 to be able to abide His coming. 573 00:26:40,309 --> 00:26:44,563 Otherwise we'll flee from that fire, that glory. 574 00:26:49,318 --> 00:26:50,861 - The fire meant to consume these men 575 00:26:50,861 --> 00:26:52,779 became unto them an ark of refuge 576 00:26:52,779 --> 00:26:55,657 because the presence of the Son of God was with them. 577 00:26:55,657 --> 00:26:56,992 This is a lesson to all of us 578 00:26:56,992 --> 00:26:59,536 regarding the nature of Christ's second coming. 579 00:26:59,536 --> 00:27:01,413 At the same time the glory of His presence 580 00:27:01,413 --> 00:27:02,789 will consume the wicked. 581 00:27:02,789 --> 00:27:06,084 He will be to the righteous an ark of fire. 582 00:27:06,084 --> 00:27:09,171 (light gentle music) 583 00:27:20,766 --> 00:27:23,393 [Narrator] "As wax melteth before the fire, 584 00:27:23,393 --> 00:27:26,605 so let the wicked perish at the presence of God. 585 00:27:26,605 --> 00:27:28,607 But let the righteous be glad; 586 00:27:28,607 --> 00:27:30,859 let them rejoice before God: 587 00:27:30,859 --> 00:27:34,404 yea, let them exceedingly rejoice." 588 00:27:34,404 --> 00:27:37,407 [Ivor] These three angels messages 589 00:27:37,407 --> 00:27:41,245 point us to the importance of inner righteousness. 590 00:27:42,162 --> 00:27:44,831 The presence of God dwelling in us. 591 00:27:44,831 --> 00:27:47,709 That is what prepares us to stand in His presence. 592 00:28:12,150 --> 00:28:14,736 - The mission Jesus came to earth to accomplish 593 00:28:14,736 --> 00:28:16,613 is revealed in His last prayer. 594 00:28:18,490 --> 00:28:21,535 - [Narrator] "Father, I will that they also, 595 00:28:21,535 --> 00:28:25,330 who though hast given me, be with me where I am; 596 00:28:25,330 --> 00:28:27,499 that they may behold my glory, 597 00:28:27,499 --> 00:28:29,168 which thou hast given me." 598 00:28:30,460 --> 00:28:32,129 - Jesus' last request to His Father 599 00:28:32,129 --> 00:28:34,006 was to dwell with those who love Him. 600 00:28:34,006 --> 00:28:36,717 That they might experience the full revelation of His love 601 00:28:36,717 --> 00:28:39,094 without being consumed by it. 602 00:28:39,094 --> 00:28:41,180 The two promises of the everlasting covenant 603 00:28:41,180 --> 00:28:42,472 are for this purpose. 604 00:28:42,472 --> 00:28:45,267 They declare God's promise to show mercy to man 605 00:28:45,267 --> 00:28:46,643 and sanctify him. 606 00:28:46,643 --> 00:28:49,104 That the prayer of Christ might be answered. 607 00:28:49,104 --> 00:28:51,273 It was amazing, yet not surprising that 608 00:28:51,273 --> 00:28:53,567 we find the symbols of these two promises 609 00:28:53,567 --> 00:28:57,613 manifest by the glory of God in the most holy place. 610 00:28:57,613 --> 00:28:59,907 [Narrator] The Sabbath is the sign of Gods promise 611 00:28:59,907 --> 00:29:01,617 to sanctify man. 612 00:29:01,617 --> 00:29:05,204 That we may dwell in the presence and glory of God. 613 00:29:05,204 --> 00:29:08,582 In His presence, the true significance of the Sabbath rest 614 00:29:08,582 --> 00:29:10,417 will be fully realized. 615 00:29:10,417 --> 00:29:12,836 With nothing separating man from God, 616 00:29:12,836 --> 00:29:15,047 he may find an eternal rest. 617 00:29:15,047 --> 00:29:19,510 No more sorrow, no more pain or disease or suffering. 618 00:29:19,510 --> 00:29:24,097 "For in thy presence is fullness of joy" David said. 619 00:29:24,097 --> 00:29:26,558 In Gods presence man will find the 620 00:29:26,558 --> 00:29:28,727 fulfillment of the Sabbath rest. 621 00:29:28,727 --> 00:29:31,146 Therefore, it is by the manifestation 622 00:29:31,146 --> 00:29:33,774 of Gods presence in the most holy place 623 00:29:33,774 --> 00:29:35,776 we see represented the symbolism 624 00:29:35,776 --> 00:29:38,028 and significance of the Sabbath. 625 00:29:38,028 --> 00:29:39,988 And bound up with the manifestation 626 00:29:39,988 --> 00:29:41,490 of the consuming fire. 627 00:29:41,490 --> 00:29:44,826 Ezekiel saw the sign of the promise of mercy. 628 00:29:44,826 --> 00:29:47,371 "And I saw as the color of amber, 629 00:29:47,371 --> 00:29:50,666 as the appearance of fire round about within it, 630 00:29:50,666 --> 00:29:53,460 from the appearance of his loins even upward, 631 00:29:53,460 --> 00:29:56,672 and from the appearance of his loins even downward, 632 00:29:56,672 --> 00:29:59,716 I saw as it were the appearance of fire, 633 00:29:59,716 --> 00:30:01,885 and it had brightness round about." 634 00:30:01,885 --> 00:30:04,388 Ezekiel then describes this brightness 635 00:30:04,388 --> 00:30:07,307 round about God's presence in detail. 636 00:30:07,307 --> 00:30:10,143 "As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud 637 00:30:10,143 --> 00:30:13,021 in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the 638 00:30:13,021 --> 00:30:14,815 brightness round about. 639 00:30:14,815 --> 00:30:16,984 This was the appearance of the likeness 640 00:30:16,984 --> 00:30:18,694 of the glory of the Lord." 641 00:30:18,694 --> 00:30:21,697 (slow gentle music) 642 00:30:31,915 --> 00:30:35,002 [Jeff] Here in the manifestation of the presence of God 643 00:30:35,002 --> 00:30:37,337 is represented the signs of the promises 644 00:30:37,337 --> 00:30:40,632 whereby man is prepared to dwell in His presence. 645 00:30:40,632 --> 00:30:42,509 The Sabbath, given by God to be 646 00:30:42,551 --> 00:30:45,012 for a perpetual or everlasting covenant 647 00:30:45,012 --> 00:30:47,222 is a sign of God's promise to sanctify man 648 00:30:47,222 --> 00:30:48,932 to abide in His presence. 649 00:30:48,932 --> 00:30:50,559 And the rainbow given to Noah 650 00:30:50,559 --> 00:30:52,686 is a sign of the everlasting covenants promise 651 00:30:52,728 --> 00:30:54,938 of mercy for the forgiveness of sins. 652 00:30:56,398 --> 00:30:58,525 Both of these promises are guaranteed 653 00:30:58,525 --> 00:31:00,819 by the life and death of Jesus. 654 00:31:00,819 --> 00:31:02,696 He lived a sinless life that we might 655 00:31:02,696 --> 00:31:05,616 be sanctified by the merits of His righteousness. 656 00:31:05,616 --> 00:31:07,451 And for the sins we have committed, 657 00:31:07,451 --> 00:31:11,205 He died in our place that we might receive His mercy. 658 00:31:11,205 --> 00:31:14,499 In these two symbols manifest by the presence of God 659 00:31:14,499 --> 00:31:17,377 are represented the significance of the Gospel 660 00:31:17,377 --> 00:31:19,046 and the everlasting covenant. 661 00:31:20,839 --> 00:31:22,090 All so that the Father, 662 00:31:22,090 --> 00:31:24,092 separated from His children by sin 663 00:31:24,092 --> 00:31:26,261 might once again might be reunited with them 664 00:31:26,261 --> 00:31:27,179 at His coming. 665 00:31:28,639 --> 00:31:30,891 [Narrator] "Now unto him that is able to keep you 666 00:31:30,891 --> 00:31:33,685 from falling and to present you faultless before 667 00:31:33,685 --> 00:31:36,980 the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, 668 00:31:36,980 --> 00:31:39,858 to the only wise God our Savior, 669 00:31:39,858 --> 00:31:43,570 be glory and majesty, dominion and power, 670 00:31:43,570 --> 00:31:46,323 both now and ever, amen." 671 00:31:48,534 --> 00:31:50,827 - The message was get into the ark. 672 00:31:50,827 --> 00:31:53,288 It is actually a call 673 00:31:53,288 --> 00:31:56,416 to draw people into the ark of safety 674 00:31:56,416 --> 00:31:59,711 which is the secret place of the most high. 675 00:31:59,711 --> 00:32:02,005 The most holy place of the sanctuary. 676 00:32:02,005 --> 00:32:05,259 And that call is the call that has 677 00:32:05,259 --> 00:32:07,553 been going out since 1844. 678 00:32:07,553 --> 00:32:09,429 It has been directing the attention 679 00:32:09,429 --> 00:32:12,182 of mankind to the Ark of the Covenant 680 00:32:12,182 --> 00:32:14,726 wherein is the law of God. 681 00:32:14,726 --> 00:32:17,688 And on top of which was the presence of God. 682 00:32:17,688 --> 00:32:20,107 So it's as though this message is calling mankind 683 00:32:20,107 --> 00:32:22,359 to the secret place of the most high 684 00:32:22,359 --> 00:32:23,944 where there is safety. 685 00:32:23,944 --> 00:32:25,737 - Not the flood this time. 686 00:32:25,737 --> 00:32:28,490 But the fire of destruction is gonna be on the wicked. 687 00:32:28,490 --> 00:32:30,617 So our message is the same thing. 688 00:32:30,617 --> 00:32:31,910 Get into the ark, 689 00:32:31,910 --> 00:32:34,288 except not the ark Noah built 690 00:32:34,288 --> 00:32:38,125 but the ark that Moses put in the most holy place. 691 00:32:38,125 --> 00:32:42,546 [Ivor] Ultimately, secret place is the presence of God. 692 00:32:43,505 --> 00:32:46,508 (slow gentle music) 693 00:33:01,982 --> 00:33:04,902 (slow paced music) 694 00:33:07,321 --> 00:33:09,489 So when Christ's presence comes again, 695 00:33:09,489 --> 00:33:11,700 when Christ comes a second time, 696 00:33:11,700 --> 00:33:13,869 we're told that this earth 697 00:33:13,869 --> 00:33:18,624 will basically be left in a state that is uninhabitable 698 00:33:18,624 --> 00:33:21,919 because of the fire and the presence of God. 699 00:33:21,919 --> 00:33:24,213 [Narrator] After the seventh and final plague, 700 00:33:24,213 --> 00:33:26,006 Jesus will come again. 701 00:33:26,006 --> 00:33:28,217 And His presence will shake the earth, 702 00:33:28,217 --> 00:33:30,427 triggering a chain of volcanic eruptions 703 00:33:30,427 --> 00:33:31,512 around the world. 704 00:33:33,180 --> 00:33:36,141 "The mountains might flow down at thy presence, 705 00:33:36,141 --> 00:33:38,352 as when the melting fire burneth, 706 00:33:38,352 --> 00:33:41,230 the fire causeth the waters to boil." 707 00:33:41,230 --> 00:33:43,190 - The Bible says that there will be fire 708 00:33:43,190 --> 00:33:46,235 from heaven in the final judgment. 709 00:33:46,235 --> 00:33:49,363 And that the fire will also come from the earth. 710 00:33:49,363 --> 00:33:52,407 That the store houses of fire and hail 711 00:33:52,407 --> 00:33:56,078 and those necessary for the destruction are 712 00:33:56,078 --> 00:33:58,872 here in the crust of the earth. 713 00:33:58,872 --> 00:34:00,332 [Narrator] At the time of the flood, 714 00:34:00,332 --> 00:34:04,545 cities, people, animals, and immense forests were buried 715 00:34:04,545 --> 00:34:07,130 and have since turned to coal and oil. 716 00:34:07,130 --> 00:34:09,299 These frequently ignite and burn 717 00:34:09,299 --> 00:34:11,301 beneath the surface of the earth. 718 00:34:11,301 --> 00:34:14,221 The rocks are heated, and when mixed with water, 719 00:34:14,221 --> 00:34:16,556 the intense heat causes earthquakes, 720 00:34:16,556 --> 00:34:20,185 volcanoes, and great cracks in the earth's crust. 721 00:34:20,185 --> 00:34:22,980 And by these means the pre-flood world, 722 00:34:22,980 --> 00:34:25,482 buried by water in the depths of the earth 723 00:34:25,482 --> 00:34:27,192 will be brought forth and employed 724 00:34:27,192 --> 00:34:29,570 in the destruction of the world by fire. 725 00:34:31,655 --> 00:34:33,991 - Take Mount Saint Helens and multiply it 726 00:34:33,991 --> 00:34:36,076 by 100 multiply it by a thousand. 727 00:34:36,076 --> 00:34:39,161 [Walter] And we have examples of massive 728 00:34:39,161 --> 00:34:42,331 volcanic eruptions that take place now. 729 00:34:42,331 --> 00:34:44,626 So there will be catastrophes on a scale 730 00:34:44,668 --> 00:34:46,003 that we cannot imagine (sirens blaring) 731 00:34:46,003 --> 00:34:47,838 in the final destruction. 732 00:34:50,382 --> 00:34:53,092 - In the Days of Noah, water rained down from the sky 733 00:34:53,092 --> 00:34:55,387 and water came up from the depths of the earth. 734 00:34:55,387 --> 00:34:56,597 And at the end of time, 735 00:34:56,597 --> 00:34:58,765 fire will be used in the same manner. 736 00:35:00,100 --> 00:35:03,228 As lightnings from heaven unite with fire in the earth, 737 00:35:03,228 --> 00:35:05,189 the mountains will burn like a furnace 738 00:35:05,189 --> 00:35:08,150 and will pour forth terrific streams of lava 739 00:35:08,150 --> 00:35:11,820 overwhelming gardens and fields, villages and cities. 740 00:35:11,820 --> 00:35:13,614 The earth will be convulsed. 741 00:35:13,614 --> 00:35:15,240 Everywhere there will be dreadful 742 00:35:15,240 --> 00:35:17,117 earthquakes and eruptions. 743 00:35:17,117 --> 00:35:18,744 (thunder cracking) 744 00:35:18,744 --> 00:35:22,581 - Now, Isaiah 24 in verse five gives us 745 00:35:22,581 --> 00:35:24,499 the reason why. 746 00:35:25,459 --> 00:35:27,794 [Narrator] "The earth also is defiled 747 00:35:27,794 --> 00:35:29,671 under the inhabitants thereof; 748 00:35:29,671 --> 00:35:32,216 because they have transgressed the laws, 749 00:35:32,216 --> 00:35:36,220 changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant. 750 00:35:36,220 --> 00:35:39,056 Therefore, hath the curse devoured the earth, 751 00:35:39,056 --> 00:35:42,142 and they that dwell therein are desolate: 752 00:35:42,142 --> 00:35:45,312 therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, 753 00:35:45,312 --> 00:35:47,898 and few men left." 754 00:35:47,898 --> 00:35:49,483 [Stephen] Interesting that it says, 755 00:35:49,483 --> 00:35:51,527 "They have transgressed the laws." 756 00:35:51,527 --> 00:35:53,529 We found in the book of Deuteronomy, 757 00:35:53,529 --> 00:35:56,865 it says that the covenant was written on tables of stone. 758 00:35:56,865 --> 00:35:58,450 The ten commandments. 759 00:35:58,450 --> 00:36:02,371 And so basically the reason why is because 760 00:36:02,371 --> 00:36:05,123 of the way that people have treated God's law 761 00:36:05,123 --> 00:36:08,168 and more specifically, His Sabbath. 762 00:36:08,168 --> 00:36:10,629 (light music) 763 00:36:12,548 --> 00:36:13,465 - Though the whole world was destroyed 764 00:36:13,465 --> 00:36:16,635 in the Days of Noah, we see in the pages of Genesis 765 00:36:16,635 --> 00:36:18,637 that "Noah only remained alive, 766 00:36:18,637 --> 00:36:20,931 and they that were with him in the ark." 767 00:36:20,931 --> 00:36:23,475 At the end of time, the same will be true. 768 00:36:23,475 --> 00:36:25,310 Only those that have entered into the ark 769 00:36:25,310 --> 00:36:28,230 of the everlasting covenant will be saved. 770 00:36:28,230 --> 00:36:30,440 During this time they will receive the same 771 00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:31,775 mercy and protection 772 00:36:31,775 --> 00:36:33,527 that preserved Noah through the flood. 773 00:36:34,361 --> 00:36:37,531 [Stephen] The rainbow that Noah and His family saw 774 00:36:37,531 --> 00:36:41,410 after the flood was in a certain sense 775 00:36:41,410 --> 00:36:45,205 an everlasting covenant that not only included them 776 00:36:45,205 --> 00:36:47,416 and the people that would come after them, 777 00:36:47,416 --> 00:36:50,878 but it also included God's end time generation 778 00:36:50,878 --> 00:36:52,713 that would be protected in the midst 779 00:36:52,713 --> 00:36:54,715 of the convulsions of the earth 780 00:36:54,715 --> 00:36:57,259 that they placed during the period of the seventh plague. 781 00:36:57,259 --> 00:36:59,553 As it's stated in the book of Isaiah. 782 00:36:59,553 --> 00:37:00,971 - Where He promises in the same way 783 00:37:00,971 --> 00:37:03,307 that His covenant was made to Noah. 784 00:37:03,307 --> 00:37:06,268 That that covenant would not be removed from God's people. 785 00:37:06,268 --> 00:37:09,229 And even though the earth was imploding 786 00:37:09,229 --> 00:37:11,273 during the time of the flood, 787 00:37:11,273 --> 00:37:12,566 He preserved Noah. 788 00:37:12,566 --> 00:37:14,985 And He ratified that with a bow of promise. 789 00:37:14,985 --> 00:37:16,820 God says that He's gonna do that for Gods 790 00:37:16,820 --> 00:37:18,155 people in the last days. 791 00:37:19,531 --> 00:37:21,575 [Narrator] "In a little wrath I hid my face 792 00:37:21,575 --> 00:37:23,160 from thee for a moment; 793 00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:26,371 but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, 794 00:37:26,371 --> 00:37:28,749 saith the Lord thy redeemer. 795 00:37:28,749 --> 00:37:32,294 For this is as the waters of Noah unto me: 796 00:37:32,294 --> 00:37:34,880 for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah 797 00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:36,882 should no more go over the earth; 798 00:37:36,882 --> 00:37:40,177 so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, 799 00:37:40,177 --> 00:37:41,720 nor rebuke thee. 800 00:37:41,720 --> 00:37:43,472 For the mountains shall depart, 801 00:37:43,472 --> 00:37:45,224 and the hills be removed; 802 00:37:45,224 --> 00:37:48,310 but my kindness shall not depart from thee, 803 00:37:48,310 --> 00:37:51,355 neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, 804 00:37:51,355 --> 00:37:53,815 saith the Lord that hath mercy on thee." 805 00:37:54,900 --> 00:37:58,320 In this passage, God repeats His covenant of mercy 806 00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:00,739 to the last generation that He established 807 00:38:00,739 --> 00:38:02,491 with Noah before the flood. 808 00:38:03,617 --> 00:38:05,786 The rainbow was and still is 809 00:38:05,786 --> 00:38:09,373 the sign and symbol of Gods promise to show mercy. 810 00:38:09,373 --> 00:38:12,125 For Isaiah says this promise is extended 811 00:38:12,125 --> 00:38:13,502 to those upon the earth. 812 00:38:13,502 --> 00:38:15,337 "When the mountains shall depart, 813 00:38:15,337 --> 00:38:17,506 and the hills be removed." 814 00:38:17,506 --> 00:38:20,425 In the book of Revelation we see this same event 815 00:38:20,425 --> 00:38:23,554 described in chapter 16 where we read, 816 00:38:23,554 --> 00:38:25,722 "Every island fled away, 817 00:38:25,722 --> 00:38:28,267 and the mountains were not found." 818 00:38:28,267 --> 00:38:31,103 And we see in this chapter this event occurs 819 00:38:31,103 --> 00:38:32,896 when the seventh angel pours out 820 00:38:32,896 --> 00:38:34,898 the seventh and final plague. 821 00:38:38,527 --> 00:38:40,404 - Therefore the rainbow that was a sign of 822 00:38:40,404 --> 00:38:42,614 God's promise of mercy to Noah 823 00:38:42,614 --> 00:38:45,409 is also a sign of His promise to show us mercy 824 00:38:45,409 --> 00:38:47,452 and to protect us through the outpouring 825 00:38:47,452 --> 00:38:49,121 of the seven last plagues. 826 00:38:51,206 --> 00:38:53,500 [Narrator] The rainbow of the everlasting covenant 827 00:38:53,500 --> 00:38:55,669 is just a much a promise of mercy 828 00:38:55,669 --> 00:38:57,462 to preserve us through the destruction 829 00:38:57,462 --> 00:39:00,883 of the world by fire, as it was to preserve Noah 830 00:39:00,883 --> 00:39:03,218 through the destruction of the world by water. 831 00:39:06,138 --> 00:39:07,681 - If a person's ever been out on the ocean 832 00:39:07,681 --> 00:39:09,683 in a severe storm, it's terrifying. 833 00:39:10,601 --> 00:39:13,729 Yet Noah was preserved in the midst 834 00:39:13,729 --> 00:39:16,315 of this incredible tribulation. 835 00:39:16,315 --> 00:39:19,443 And the confidence that He protected Noah through that 836 00:39:19,443 --> 00:39:20,569 reminds us that He can (thunder cracking) 837 00:39:29,286 --> 00:39:31,955 Even when the seventh plague is falling 838 00:39:31,955 --> 00:39:35,459 and the mountains are being swallowed up by the sea, 839 00:39:35,459 --> 00:39:37,377 He said my promise to preserve you during 840 00:39:37,377 --> 00:39:38,795 that time still stands. 841 00:39:39,630 --> 00:39:41,965 [Narrator] "God is our refuge and our strength, 842 00:39:41,965 --> 00:39:44,301 a very present help in trouble. 843 00:39:44,301 --> 00:39:46,803 "Therefore will not we fear, 844 00:39:46,803 --> 00:39:48,472 though the earth be removed, 845 00:39:48,472 --> 00:39:50,182 and though the mountains be carried 846 00:39:50,182 --> 00:39:51,850 into the midst of the sea; 847 00:39:51,850 --> 00:39:55,270 though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, 848 00:39:55,270 --> 00:39:58,815 though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof." 849 00:39:58,815 --> 00:40:01,568 (walls rumbling) 850 00:40:03,445 --> 00:40:06,281 (rocks crumbling) 851 00:40:15,207 --> 00:40:17,876 (door clanking) 852 00:40:23,841 --> 00:40:26,760 (thunder cracking) 853 00:40:33,350 --> 00:40:36,270 (determined music) 854 00:40:49,366 --> 00:40:52,035 (sirens blaring) 855 00:40:52,035 --> 00:40:55,998 - You see Noah moving from an old world to a new world 856 00:40:55,998 --> 00:40:57,916 based upon the covenant that was made. 857 00:40:57,916 --> 00:41:01,044 This is the same thing that God wants to do with us. 858 00:41:01,044 --> 00:41:04,298 The covenant is designed to move us 859 00:41:04,298 --> 00:41:06,800 from the old world to a new world. 860 00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:09,678 [Doug] Though the first world was destroyed by water, 861 00:41:09,678 --> 00:41:12,764 the world the second time will be destroyed by fire. 862 00:41:12,764 --> 00:41:14,349 And Peter implies then that, 863 00:41:14,349 --> 00:41:16,602 We look for a new heaven, a new earth. 864 00:41:16,602 --> 00:41:19,897 Meaning we will survive that destruction. 865 00:41:19,897 --> 00:41:21,732 We're gonna survive that fire. 866 00:41:21,732 --> 00:41:24,484 - In the book of Isaiah, God speaks about 867 00:41:24,484 --> 00:41:27,029 creating a new heavens and a new earth. 868 00:41:27,029 --> 00:41:29,448 - The whole story of what happened with Noah 869 00:41:29,448 --> 00:41:31,533 and what happens in the last days, 870 00:41:31,533 --> 00:41:33,327 it's all about how to get back to the garden. 871 00:41:33,327 --> 00:41:35,579 He wants to restore paradise for man 872 00:41:35,579 --> 00:41:37,414 and purity to the universe. 873 00:41:37,414 --> 00:41:40,334 [Ivor] The new earth will be a place where 874 00:41:40,334 --> 00:41:41,543 according to the book of Revelation, 875 00:41:41,543 --> 00:41:44,046 there'll be no more tears, no more crying, 876 00:41:44,046 --> 00:41:47,424 no more sin, no more death or suffering. 877 00:41:47,424 --> 00:41:49,343 - In other words, everything will be perfect. 878 00:41:49,343 --> 00:41:51,512 The world will return to the condition 879 00:41:51,512 --> 00:41:53,639 it was in before sin. 880 00:41:53,639 --> 00:41:56,183 [Ivor] There will be no thorns, will be no death, 881 00:41:56,183 --> 00:42:00,896 no thing in nature that reflects anything impure, 882 00:42:00,896 --> 00:42:02,689 or anything that decays or dies. 883 00:42:02,689 --> 00:42:04,775 [Stephen] Weather patterns will be perfect, 884 00:42:04,775 --> 00:42:07,486 there'll be no pain, no suffering, no sorrow. 885 00:42:07,486 --> 00:42:10,447 [Ivor] And so the earth itself will indeed 886 00:42:10,447 --> 00:42:13,242 be a pure reflection of the very glory 887 00:42:13,242 --> 00:42:15,118 and character of God. 888 00:42:15,118 --> 00:42:16,662 [Narrator] "And I heard a great voice 889 00:42:16,662 --> 00:42:18,121 out of heaven saying, 890 00:42:18,121 --> 00:42:21,667 Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, 891 00:42:21,667 --> 00:42:23,418 and He will dwell with them, 892 00:42:23,418 --> 00:42:25,254 and they shall be His people, 893 00:42:25,254 --> 00:42:29,800 and God Himself shall be with them, and be their God." 894 00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:32,094 - His sanctuary will be with us. 895 00:42:32,094 --> 00:42:33,762 God will live with us. 896 00:42:33,762 --> 00:42:36,265 [Allen] We see in Revelation there is no temple. 897 00:42:36,265 --> 00:42:39,434 [Clyde] There is no more need of a laver. 898 00:42:39,434 --> 00:42:42,938 There is no more need of the altar of incense. 899 00:42:42,938 --> 00:42:45,524 The Table of Shrewbread, the candlesticks, 900 00:42:45,524 --> 00:42:46,650 all of these sorts of things, 901 00:42:46,650 --> 00:42:49,653 because that has been completed. 902 00:42:49,653 --> 00:42:51,196 [Ivor] And so that was ultimate 903 00:42:51,196 --> 00:42:52,406 purpose of the sanctuary. 904 00:42:52,406 --> 00:42:54,992 How God ultimately will dwell with His people. 905 00:43:00,539 --> 00:43:03,208 - There's no need of a temple because God is the temple. 906 00:43:03,208 --> 00:43:04,168 He dwells with man. 907 00:43:04,168 --> 00:43:07,880 So the sanctuary again is complete because of God. 908 00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:09,464 Because of Christ. 909 00:43:09,464 --> 00:43:13,051 And we His people, those of us who choose to be there 910 00:43:13,927 --> 00:43:15,888 will reign with Him forever. 911 00:43:15,888 --> 00:43:18,473 (thunder cracking) 912 00:43:18,473 --> 00:43:23,437 [Ivor] God desires and God will make this place a new earth. 913 00:43:24,271 --> 00:43:27,232 But only those who accept the covenant 914 00:43:27,232 --> 00:43:29,985 and get into the ark will be alive 915 00:43:29,985 --> 00:43:33,071 to get out of the ark and see it when it happens. 916 00:43:34,823 --> 00:43:36,700 [Narrator] "And God shall wipe away all 917 00:43:36,700 --> 00:43:38,327 tears from their eyes; 918 00:43:38,327 --> 00:43:40,120 and there shall be no more death, 919 00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:42,289 neither sorrow, nor crying, 920 00:43:42,289 --> 00:43:45,209 for the former things are passed away. 921 00:43:45,209 --> 00:43:47,419 And He that sat upon the throne said, 922 00:43:47,419 --> 00:43:50,130 Behold, I make all things new." 923 00:43:51,507 --> 00:43:54,009 [Clyde] Those things that have caused us so much misery 924 00:43:54,009 --> 00:43:57,888 and so much grief and so much pain will be gone. 925 00:43:57,888 --> 00:44:01,642 And we'll be given a new earth and a new heart. 926 00:44:01,642 --> 00:44:04,269 But we will still be, I will be me 927 00:44:04,269 --> 00:44:05,437 and you will be you. 928 00:44:07,189 --> 00:44:08,732 But we will be different 929 00:44:08,732 --> 00:44:10,692 because there is no pain, no sorrow, 930 00:44:10,692 --> 00:44:12,903 no death, no dying. 931 00:44:12,903 --> 00:44:13,737 That's love. 932 00:44:14,613 --> 00:44:15,656 That's ultimate love. 933 00:44:18,116 --> 00:44:23,121 (thunder cracking) (light music) 934 00:44:40,556 --> 00:44:42,057 [Jeff] On this timeline we can look back 935 00:44:42,057 --> 00:44:45,227 and see how Bible prophecy has foretold every movement. 936 00:44:45,227 --> 00:44:47,187 From the story of Noah and the flood, 937 00:44:47,187 --> 00:44:50,482 the 70 week prophecy pointing to the sacrifice of Christ, 938 00:44:50,482 --> 00:44:53,235 the corruption and restoration of the sanctuary, 939 00:44:53,235 --> 00:44:55,737 and the events of the present day. 940 00:44:55,737 --> 00:44:58,282 With this track record we can know with certainty 941 00:44:58,282 --> 00:45:00,284 that we are at the end of the judgment hour 942 00:45:00,284 --> 00:45:03,161 living in the last sliver of time. 943 00:45:03,161 --> 00:45:07,249 The Days of Noah are done, the door of mercy is almost shut, 944 00:45:07,249 --> 00:45:09,042 and the last prophecies of Revelation 945 00:45:09,042 --> 00:45:12,004 are being rapidly fulfilled in our midst. 946 00:45:12,004 --> 00:45:13,505 The papacy and the United States 947

1114 00:51:57,117 --> 00:51:59,077 - I believe in an America 1115 00:51:59,077 --> 00:52:02,623 where the separation of church and state is absolute. 1116 00:52:02,623 --> 00:52:05,459 Where no Catholic prelate would tell the president 1117 00:52:06,418 --> 00:52:08,795 should he be Catholic, how to act. 1118 00:52:08,795 --> 00:52:10,881 And no Protestant minister 1119 00:52:10,881 --> 00:52:13,133 would tell his parishioners for whom to vote. 1120 00:52:13,133 --> 00:52:14,384 - [Male Reporter] That speech has been read as you know 1121 00:52:14,426 --> 00:52:16,553 by millions of

the speech says, 1125 00:52:22,351 --> 00:52:25,062 "I believe in America where the separation 1126 00:52:25,062 --> 00:52:27,814 "of church and state is absolute." 1127 00:52:27,814 --> 00:52:29,274 I don't believe in an America where the 1128 00:52:29,274 --> 00:52:31,276 separation of church and state is absolute. 1129 00:52:31,276 --> 00:52:34,029 - Let's talk about God and the constitution

believe it's a lot easier to change the constitution 1136 00:52:44,206 --> 00:52:46,708 than it would be to change the word of the living God. 1137 00:52:46,708 --> 00:52:47,793 And that's what we need to do 1138 00:52:47,793 --> 00:52:50,254 is to amend the constitution so it's in God's 1139 00:52:50,254 --> 00:52:52,005 standards rather than try to change 1140 00:52:52,005 --> 00:52:53,799 God's standards so it lines up with some 1141 00:52:53,799 --> 00:52:56,510 contemporary view of how we treat each other 1142 00:52:56,510 --> 00:52:58,011 and how we treat the family. 1143 00:52:58,011 --> 00:53:01,265 - And when protestant America does this, 1144 00:53:01,265 --> 00:53:04,059 they will then have the image set up. 1145 00:53:04,059 --> 00:53:06,520 - My administration will stand side by side 1146 00:53:06,520 --> 00:53:08,897 with the American Catholics to promote 1147 00:53:08,897 --> 00:53:12,484 the values we all share as Christians and Americans. 1148

00:53:17,072 --> 00:53:19,116 We should be having an influence 1152 00:53:19,116 --> 00:53:20,909 upon arts and entertainment, 1153 00:53:20,909 --> 00:53:22,995 upon the media, upon sports, 1154

religious liberty for everyone. 1176 00:54:14,046 --> 00:54:15,297 Some critics are even calling it to a 1177 00:54:15,297 --> 00:54:17,216 "nod to Christian nationalism." 1178 00:54:17,216 -->

the spiritual awakening at the White House? 1187 00:54:34,900 --> 00:54:39,279 - The last election 80% of white Evangelical Christians 1188 00:54:39,279 --> 00:54:41,406 voted for Donald Trump. 1189 00:54:41,406 --> 00:54:44,076 This has given him a huge support base. 1190 00:54:44,076 --> 00:54:46,620 And they have immense political power 1191 00:54:46,620 --> 00:54:48,705 to influence

which says in part, "For he is the servant of God, 1197 00:55:02,511 --> 00:55:05,097 "and avenger who carries out God's wrath 1198 00:55:05,097 --> 00:55:06,348 "on the wrongdoer." 1199 00:55:06,348 --> 00:55:09,726 - Especially Romans 13 does give President Trump 1200 00:55:09,726 --> 00:55:13,105 moral authority to use whatever force necessary. 1201 00:55:13,105 --> 00:55:15,816 - Is this the most Evangelical presidency you've seen? 1202 00:55:16,692 --> 00:55:17,526 - Oh 100%. 1203 00:55:17,526 --> 00:55:18,527 I don't think there's. 1204 00:55:18,527 --> 00:55:20,988 - And they'll appeal to the powers of the state. 1205 00:55:20,988 --> 00:55:22,781 And people out of fear are gonna listen. 1206 00:55:22,781 --> 00:55:24,783 - We are slowly eroding a religion 1207 00:55:24,783 --> 00:55:27,035 at every opportunity that we have. 1208 00:55:28,579 --> 00:55:31,039 Probably we should be debating a bill 1209 00:55:31,039 --> 00:55:33,917 requiring every American to attend 1210 00:55:33,959 --> 00:55:37,004 a church of their choice on Sunday. 1211 00:55:37,004 --> 00:55:40,132 [Narrator] "And that no man might buy or sell, 1212 00:55:40,132 --> 00:55:42,342 "save he that had

third encyclical of his pontificate, 1227 00:56:10,454 --> 00:56:13,207 Benedict announced the profit at all cost mentality 1228 00:56:13,207 --> 00:56:15,167 of the globalized economy. 1229 00:56:15,167 --> 00:56:17,211 And he lamented that greed brought about 1230 00:56:17,211 --> 00:56:20,214 the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression. 1231 00:56:20,214 --> 00:56:21,673 - The Vatican has come out 1232 00:56:21,673 --> 00:56:25,385 and said that economic inequality across the world 1233 00:56:25,385 --> 00:56:28,847 is very dangerous and that the global economy 1234 00:56:28,847 --> 00:56:30,516 needs to be based on ethical behavior 1235 00:56:30,516 --> 00:56:32,768 and the financial systems need to work 1236 00:56:32,768 --> 00:56:35,687 towards an achievement of a universal common good. 1237 00:56:35,687 --> 00:56:36,647 - [Female Reporter] Vatican calls for 1238 00:56:36,647 --> 00:56:39,274 central world bank to be set up. 1239 00:56:39,274 --> 00:56:40,567 - [Female Reporter] A proposal to create a 1240 00:56:40,567 --> 00:56:42,361 new financial authority, 1241 00:56:42,361 --> 00:56:44,279 including a global central bank 1242 00:56:44,279

to change the world economic order. 1245 00:56:52,496 --> 00:56:55,082 - This is a challenging economy across the globe, 1246 00:56:55,082 --> 00:56:57,459 not just here in the US, it's challenging everywhere. 1247 00:56:57,459 --> 00:56:59,545 And I think that it's going to take 1248 00:57:00,796 --> 00:57:03,340 a lot of policy changes and the Pope 1249 00:57:03,340 --> 00:57:05,342 clearly has a view on that is weighing in on that. 1250 00:57:05,342 --> 00:57:06,885 - Is there a possibility that there will 1251 00:57:06,885 --> 00:57:09,388 be a new world currency that will take 1252 00:57:09,388 --> 00:57:10,389 over from the dollar? 1253 00:57:10,389 --> 00:57:12,224 - [Male Reporter] As the debt crisis in Greece 1254 00:57:12,224 --> 00:57:15,185 sends the stock market into a tailspin. 1255 00:57:15,185 --> 00:57:17,187 - It'll be a real measure of kind of 1256 00:57:17,187 --> 00:57:19,773 the waning of American power globally. 1257 00:57:19,773 --> 00:57:22,109 - The affirmative task we have now 1258 00:57:22,109 --> 00:57:25,863 is to actually create 1259 00:57:26,738 --> 00:57:29,199 a new world order. 1260 00:57:29,199 --> 00:57:30,826 - The issue of the Sabbath will become 1261 00:57:30,826 --> 00:57:33,036 very very prominent in the world. 1262 00:57:33,036 --> 00:57:35,831 - Talk to me about the Sabbath, what it means. 1263 00:57:35,831 --> 00:57:37,332 Just religion aside. 1264 00:57:37,332 --> 00:57:39,084 What it means to you. 1265 00:57:39,084 --> 00:57:40,294 - One of the ideas, 1266 00:57:40,294 --> 00:57:43,130 the political idea is sort of embedded in the Sabbath 1267 00:57:43,172 --> 00:57:44,798 is the idea that as a society, 1268 00:57:44,798 --> 00:57:47,176 we have the right to take control of our time 1269 00:57:47,217 --> 00:57:50,053 and say maybe as a democratic society, 1270 00:57:50,053 --> 00:57:52,723 we want to decide to bring back some 1271 00:57:52,723 --> 00:57:57,519 rules about what can and cannot be done one day a week. 1272 00:57:57,519 --> 00:57:59,229 And we might wanna start thinking about 1273 00:57:59,229 --> 00:58:02,608 ways to encourage people not to work on that day. 1274 00:58:02,608 --> 00:58:04,276 - Seventh-day Adventist is a Christian denomination 1275 00:58:04,276 --> 00:58:05,819 and one of the things that we believe 1276 00:58:05,819 --> 00:58:07,279 is observing the Sabbath. 1277 00:58:07,279 --> 00:58:09,823 So from a young child, being brought up, 1278 00:58:09,823 --> 00:58:11,825 I was always brought up with Sabbath observance. 1279 00:58:11,825 --> 00:58:13,869 So Friday night sundown, Saturday night sundown, 1280 00:58:13,869 --> 00:58:14,953 as mentioned in the 10 commandments. 1281 00:58:14,953 --> 00:58:16,997 remember the seventh day to keep it holy. 1282 00:58:16,997 --> 00:58:19,082 - Which, may I just confess that I learned 1283 00:58:19,082 --> 00:58:20,667 in my first meeting with DeVon, 1284 00:58:20,667 --> 00:58:23,337 all these years I thought the Sabbath was Sunday. 1285 00:58:23,337 --> 00:58:26,465 I've been going to church, we say worship on the Sabbath, 1286 00:58:26,465 --> 00:58:28,509 worship on the Sabbath in the Baptist church. 1287 00:58:28,509 --> 00:58:30,177 And you corrected me, you said, 1288 00:58:30,177 --> 00:58:32,429 "No, Sunday is the first day of the week. 1289 00:58:32,429 --> 00:58:35,349 "Sabbath is Friday sundown to Saturday sundown." 1290 00:58:35,349 --> 00:58:36,183 - [DeVon] That's right, that's right. 1291 00:58:36,183 --> 00:58:37,476 - I stand corrected. 1292 00:58:37,476 --> 00:58:38,477 - The day of rest, the Sabbath, 1293 00:58:38,477 --> 00:58:40,938 because in six days God created the world 1294 00:58:40,938 --> 00:58:42,773 and on the 7th He rested. 1295 00:58:42,773 --> 00:58:45,025 When Christianity came along they changed that. 1296 00:58:45,025 --> 00:58:47,277 And they made the Sabbath the first day of the week 1297 00:58:47,277 --> 00:58:48,362 'cause that was the day on which 1298 00:58:48,362 --> 00:58:51,448 certain important events happen to Jesus. 1299 00:58:51,448 --> 00:58:55,160 - Constantine had the authority to change the Sabbath 1300 00:58:55,160 --> 00:58:56,370 from Saturday to Sunday. 1301 00:58:58,080 --> 00:58:59,748 Looking through the Bible we have not found 1302 00:58:59,790 --> 00:59:01,667 evidence that anybody except God 1303 00:59:01,667 --> 00:59:03,794 gets to make that declaration. 1304 00:59:03,794 --> 00:59:06,630 - You know what, is working on Sundays true freedom? 1305 00:59:06,630 --> 00:59:09,591 It basically says, all of this hard work 1306 00:59:09,591 --> 00:59:11,176 that people are doing on the weekends, 1307 00:59:11,176 --> 00:59:14,388 on Sundays, is having a negative impact on their lives. 1308 00:59:14,388 --> 00:59:16,473 - Sunday law, the Bible speaks about 1309 00:59:16,473 --> 00:59:17,975 these laws that will be passed. 1310 00:59:17,975 --> 00:59:19,142 They're called Blue Laws. 1311 00:59:19,142 --> 00:59:22,312 They are an indicator that 1312 00:59:22,312 --> 00:59:25,983 the close of probation is close. 1313 00:59:25,983 --> 00:59:27,484 Is very near. 1314 00:59:27,484 --> 00:59:29,987 - Several states still have Blue Laws on the books. 1315 00:59:29,987 --> 00:59:31,196 Those are the laws that restrict 1316 00:59:31,196 --> 00:59:32,906 what you can buy on Sunday. 1317 00:59:32,906 --> 00:59:34,449 - [Female Reporter] It's based on a centuries old 1318 00:59:34,449 --> 00:59:36,869 Christian concept brought over to this country 1319 00:59:36,869 --> 00:59:38,412 in colonial times. 1320 00:59:38,412 --> 00:59:40,706 - And anyone who does not comply 1321 00:59:40,706 --> 00:59:42,833 with this law of the state 1322 00:59:42,833 --> 00:59:44,710 instigated by the church 1323 00:59:44,710 --> 00:59:46,086 will be persecuted. 1324 00:59:46,086 --> 00:59:49,256 The religious leaders in the United States 1325 00:59:49,256 --> 00:59:52,885 will push strongly for a national Sunday law. 1326 00:59:52,885 --> 00:59:55,554 Which eventually will lead to a universal 1327 00:59:55,554 --> 00:59:57,014 worldwide Sunday law. 1328 00:59:57,848 --> 01:00:01,226 - In EU's original working time directive 1329 01:00:01,226 --> 01:00:03,562 Sunday should be a weekly day of rest 1330 01:00:03,562 --> 01:00:05,105 for European workers. 1331 01:00:05,147 --> 01:00:07,524 - [Male] This is not necessarily a 1332 01:00:07,524 --> 01:00:09,818 religious thing any longer at least. 1333 01:00:09,818 --> 01:00:12,029 - Should the Sabbath be a day of rest? 1334 01:00:12,029 --> 01:00:14,323 - If we're going to, as a country, 1335 01:00:14,323 --> 01:00:16,700 and as individuals, if we're going to say, 1336 01:00:16,700 --> 01:00:18,243 actually it's our relationships that 1337 01:00:18,243 --> 01:00:20,662 are most important to us as a community 1338 01:00:20,662 --> 01:00:23,165 and I suggest that we have to make 1339 01:00:23,165 --> 01:00:26,335 one day of the week, give priority to relationships. 1340 01:00:26,335 --> 01:00:28,253 - New Italian government will introduce 1341 01:00:28,253 --> 01:00:31,632 a ban on Sunday shopping in large commercial centers 1342 01:00:31,632 --> 01:00:32,799 by the end of this year. 1343 01:00:32,799 --> 01:00:34,843 The reason, the Italian government fears 1344 01:00:34,843 --> 01:00:37,095 that shopping on weekends is destroying 1345 01:00:37,095 --> 01:00:38,847 family traditions and creating. 1346 01:00:38,847 --> 01:00:40,766 - Ban on working on Sundays isn't it for you? 1347 01:00:40,766 --> 01:00:41,600 - That's right. 1348 01:00:41,600 --> 01:00:43,185 And this Sunday several home improvement stores 1349 01:00:43,185 --> 01:00:45,187 decided to brave that ban 1350 01:00:45,187 --> 01:00:47,147 and this has caused quite an uproar 1351 01:00:47,147 --> 01:00:49,942 that is continuing to get a lot of attention here today. 1352 01:00:49,942 --> 01:00:51,568 Let's take a look at (speaks foreign language) 1353 01:00:51,610 --> 01:00:53,946 that talks about Sacred Sunday. 1354 01:00:53,946 --> 01:00:55,405 - [Female Reporter] Our society that provided 1355 01:00:55,405 --> 01:00:57,032 the rhythm of consumption is likely 1356 01:00:57,032 --> 01:00:58,200 to steal from us. 1357 01:00:58,200 --> 01:01:00,118 The sense of celebrating Sunday 1358 01:01:00,118 --> 01:01:02,412 as the day of the Lord and the community. 1359 01:01:04,039 --> 01:01:06,875 - Our continuing Catechesis on the Eucharist 1360 01:01:06,875 --> 01:01:10,796 today centers on the importance of Sunday mass. 1361 01:01:10,838 --> 01:01:13,757 As Christians, we celebrate the Eucharist 1362 01:01:13,757 --> 01:01:15,801 in order to encounter the Lord, 1363 01:01:15,801 --> 01:01:18,595 to hear His word, eat at His table, 1364 01:01:18,595 --> 01:01:22,850 and by His grace, to fulfill our mission in the world 1365 01:01:22,850 --> 01:01:25,853 as members of His mystical body, the church. 1366 01:01:27,062 --> 01:01:28,647 As the day of the Resurrection 1367 01:01:28,647 --> 01:01:32,109 and the Pentecostal outpouring of the Holy Spirit, 1368 01:01:32,109 --> 01:01:36,029 Sunday is the Christian holy day par excellence. 1369 01:01:36,905 --> 01:01:39,741 How could we pass this day without encountering the Lord? 1370 01:01:40,909 --> 01:01:44,329 Sadly, in many secularized societies 1371 01:01:44,329 --> 01:01:46,415 we have lost the sense of Sunday. 1372 01:01:47,666 --> 01:01:49,960 Second Vatican council asked us 1373 01:01:49,960 --> 01:01:51,879 to celebrate the Lords day 1374 01:01:51,879 --> 01:01:55,174 as a day of joy and rest from several work. 1375 01:01:56,008 --> 01:02:00,095 Precisely as a sign of our dignity as children of God. 1376 01:02:01,221 --> 01:02:03,849 Each Sunday is meant to be a foretaste 1377 01:02:03,891 --> 01:02:06,894 of the eternal bliss and repose to which 1378 01:02:06,894 --> 01:02:10,189 we're called and which we share even now 1379 01:02:10,189 --> 01:02:11,273 in holy communion. 1380 01:02:12,232 --> 01:02:14,985 In the end, we go to mass 1381 01:02:14,985 --> 01:02:17,529 not to give something to God, 1382 01:02:17,529 --> 01:02:19,615 but to receive from Him 1383 01:02:19,615 --> 01:02:21,950 the grace and strength to remain 1384 01:02:21,950 --> 01:02:23,493 faithful to His word. 1385 01:02:23,493 --> 01:02:26,038 - The third angels message is all about 1386 01:02:26,038 --> 01:02:28,040 getting right with Christ 1387 01:02:28,040 --> 01:02:30,667 so that we can avoid the punishment of the wicked. 1388 01:02:30,667 --> 01:02:32,836 This is why the revelator finishes up 1389 01:02:32,836 --> 01:02:34,505 in Revelations 14:12. 1390 01:02:34,505 --> 01:02:36,465 "Here is the patience of the saints: 1391 01:02:36,465 --> 01:02:37,883 "here are they that" do what? 1392 01:02:37,883 --> 01:02:42,095 "Keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus." 1393 01:02:42,095 --> 01:02:45,182 (thunder cracking) 1394 01:02:45,182 --> 01:02:48,018 (determined music) 1395 01:02:48,018 --> 01:02:49,311 [Narrator] We are living at the end 1396 01:02:49,311 --> 01:02:51,313 of the worlds last judgment hour. 1397 01:03:00,280 --> 01:03:02,199 Now is the time to enter into 1398 01:03:02,199 --> 01:03:04,618 the everlasting covenant by entering 1399 01:03:04,618 --> 01:03:06,036 into His rest. 1400 01:03:06,036 --> 01:03:09,790 Only those who receive Gods mercy and are sanctified 1401 01:03:09,790 --> 01:03:11,667 will be hid with Christ in God 1402 01:03:11,667 --> 01:03:14,545 til the desolation be overpassed. 1403 01:03:14,545 --> 01:03:16,588 Turn your face to the throne of God, 1404 01:03:16,588 --> 01:03:19,800 and there you will see the rainbow of the covenant. 1405 01:03:19,800 --> 01:03:22,052 The living promise of God. 1406 01:03:22,052 --> 01:03:25,347 Whosoever avails himself of the provisions of mercy 1407 01:03:25,347 --> 01:03:27,307 that have been made and appropriates 1408 01:03:27,307 --> 01:03:29,893 the merits of the life and death of Christ 1409 01:03:29,893 --> 01:03:32,229 has in the rainbow of the covenant 1410 01:03:32,229 --> 01:03:35,315 a blessed assurance of acceptance with the Father 1411 01:03:35,315 --> 01:03:38,026 as long as the throne of God endures. 1412 01:03:38,026 --> 01:03:40,696 During the outpouring of the seven last plagues 1413 01:03:40,696 --> 01:03:42,281 and the coming of Christ, 1414 01:03:42,281 --> 01:03:44,241 the righteous will dwell safely 1415 01:03:44,241 --> 01:03:47,077 in the presence of the Lamb with exceeding joy. 1416 01:03:47,077 --> 01:03:50,247 Looking forward to a new heavens and a new earth, 1417 01:03:50,247 --> 01:03:52,583 wherein dwelleth righteousness. 1418 01:03:52,583 --> 01:03:56,295 And finally, God will dwell with man. 1419 01:04:04,720 --> 01:04:06,555 [Jeff] The Days of Noah refers to a time 1420 01:04:06,555 --> 01:04:09,183 when the warning message about the judgment to come 1421 01:04:09,183 --> 01:04:10,976 began to be proclaimed. 1422 01:04:10,976 --> 01:04:13,979 And at the end of time, the first angel's message announces 1423 01:04:13,979 --> 01:04:16,148 "The hour of His judgment is come." 1424 01:04:17,065 --> 01:04:18,984 Noah preached the everlasting Gospel 1425 01:04:18,984 --> 01:04:21,028 and at the end of time, the first angel's 1426 01:04:21,028 --> 01:04:24,406 message also proclaims the everlasting Gospel. 1427 01:04:24,406 --> 01:04:25,908 Noah had a global message. 1428 01:04:25,908 --> 01:04:28,660 And the three angels' messages at the end of time 1429 01:04:28,660 --> 01:04:31,371 are also given to all "That dwell on the earth 1430 01:04:31,371 --> 01:04:35,167 "to every nation, kindred, and tongue, and people." 1431 01:04:35,167 --> 01:04:37,169 Noah called people to forsake their idols 1432 01:04:37,169 --> 01:04:39,213 and false systems of worship. 1433 01:04:39,213 --> 01:04:41,256 At the end of time the second angels message 1434 01:04:41,256 --> 01:04:42,966 announces the fall of Babylon. 1435 01:04:42,966 --> 01:04:45,636 Exposes her false worship and her sins 1436 01:04:45,636 --> 01:04:47,221 and proclaims the plea of God. 1437 01:04:47,221 --> 01:04:48,680 "Come out of her my people, 1438 01:04:48,680 --> 01:04:50,724 "that you be not partakers of her sins 1439 01:04:50,724 --> 01:04:52,935 "and that you receive not of her plagues." 1440 01:04:54,269 --> 01:04:56,271 In the Days of Noah, the people were tested 1441 01:04:56,271 --> 01:04:58,023 to see who would trust in the promises 1442 01:04:58,023 --> 01:04:59,525 of the everlasting covenant 1443 01:04:59,525 --> 01:05:01,860 by the sign of entering into the ark. 1444 01:05:01,860 --> 01:05:04,738 Now at the end of time, the third angels message 1445 01:05:04,738 --> 01:05:06,990 warns us of the coming test that will determine 1446 01:05:06,990 --> 01:05:09,076 who will trust in the promises 1447 01:05:09,076 --> 01:05:11,495 of the everlasting covenant by the sign 1448 01:05:11,495 --> 01:05:13,455 of entering into His Sabbath rest. 1449 01:05:16,291 --> 01:05:18,168 Noah was a preacher of righteousness. 1450 01:05:18,168 --> 01:05:20,212 An heir of righteousness by faith 1451 01:05:20,212 --> 01:05:23,048 which prepared him to enter into the presence of God. 1452 01:05:23,048 --> 01:05:25,342 And likewise, the third angel's message 1453 01:05:25,342 --> 01:05:27,135 and the Mark of the Beast crisis 1454 01:05:27,135 --> 01:05:28,971 will also reveal who will be prepared 1455 01:05:28,971 --> 01:05:31,431 to dwell in the presence of the holy angels 1456 01:05:31,431 --> 01:05:33,100 and in the presence of the Lamb. 1457 01:05:35,018 --> 01:05:38,605 Noah's ark served as a sanctuary for Noah and his family. 1458 01:05:38,605 --> 01:05:40,774 It was a symbol of the most holy place 1459 01:05:40,774 --> 01:05:43,193 where we find the presence of God, the ark. 1460 01:05:43,193 --> 01:05:45,988 And inside the Ark the covenant of the 10 commandments. 1461 01:05:47,781 --> 01:05:50,367 Now we can finally see the deeper significance 1462 01:05:50,367 --> 01:05:52,744 of this ancient story and how it is a lesson 1463 01:05:52,744 --> 01:05:55,330 to teach us to enter into the most holy place 1464 01:05:55,330 --> 01:05:57,374 of the heavenly sanctuary by faith 1465 01:05:57,374 --> 01:05:58,959 and the blood of Jesus. 1466 01:05:58,959 --> 01:06:01,420 That we too might be prepared to rest 1467 01:06:01,420 --> 01:06:03,714 in the presence of God safely inside 1468 01:06:03,714 --> 01:06:05,048 of the Ark of the Covenant. 1469 01:06:07,676 --> 01:06:10,762 God said to Noah, "With thee I will establish my covenant; 1470 01:06:10,762 --> 01:06:12,973 "and thou shall come into the ark." 1471 01:06:12,973 --> 01:06:14,850 With these words, God invited Noah 1472 01:06:14,850 --> 01:06:16,518 to come into His presence. 1473 01:06:16,518 --> 01:06:19,062 A picture of Jesus' last invitation to man 1474 01:06:19,062 --> 01:06:22,441 to come into the glory of His presence at His coming. 1475 01:06:22,441 --> 01:06:25,152 The tears of Noah and his last pleadings with man 1476 01:06:25,152 --> 01:06:26,862 foreshadowed the tears of Jesus 1477 01:06:26,862 --> 01:06:28,989 in His last heartfelt plea with us 1478 01:06:28,989 --> 01:06:31,366 by these three angel's messages. 1479 01:06:31,366 --> 01:06:33,952 As He said to Noah, "Come into the ark." 1480 01:06:34,953 --> 01:06:37,206 So today the captain of our salvation 1481 01:06:37,206 --> 01:06:40,584 is inviting us into the last ark with these words. 1482 01:06:41,543 --> 01:06:44,588 [Narrator] "Incline your ear, and come unto me: 1483 01:06:44,588 --> 01:06:47,424 hear, and your soul shall live; 1484 01:06:47,424 --> 01:06:50,219 and I will make an everlasting covenant with you." 1485 01:06:51,470 --> 01:06:53,555 (determined music) 1486 01:06:53,555 --> 01:06:56,600 Sin and sinners will be no more. 1487 01:06:56,600 --> 01:06:59,311 The entire universe will be clean, 1488 01:06:59,311 --> 01:07:01,980 one pulse of harmony and gladness 1489 01:07:01,980 --> 01:07:04,274 will beat through the vast creation 1490 01:07:04,274 --> 01:07:06,360 from Him who created all, 1491 01:07:06,360 --> 01:07:09,071 flow life and light and gladness 1492 01:07:09,071 --> 01:07:11,698 throughout the realms of illimitable space. 1493 01:07:11,698 --> 01:07:15,160 From the minutest atom to the greatest world. 1494 01:07:15,160 --> 01:07:17,496 All things animate and inanimate 1495 01:07:17,496 --> 01:07:20,249 in their shadowed beauty and perfect joy 1496 01:07:20,249 --> 01:07:23,085 will declare that God is love. 1497 01:07:29,842 --> 01:07:34,847 (slow paced music) (thunder cracking) 1498 01:08:40,037 --> 01:08:42,956 (slow paced music) 1499 01:09:05,187 --> 01:09:08,607 (slow light paced music) 1500 01:09:55,320 --> 01:09:57,906 - The worst decision I've ever had to make 1501 01:09:58,907 --> 01:10:00,534 was to keep the Sabbath or not. 1502 01:10:01,451 --> 01:10:03,495 Because if I decided to keep the Sabbath 1503 01:10:03,495 --> 01:10:05,706 that means I had to dispense 1504 01:10:05,706 --> 01:10:09,835 with my entire world philosophy. 1505 01:10:09,835 --> 01:10:13,964 And did I lose family and friends as a consequence? 1506 01:10:13,964 --> 01:10:17,259 I can honestly say yes, virtually all of them. 1507 01:10:17,259 --> 01:10:18,594 But I gained new ones. 1508 01:10:19,844 --> 01:10:22,389 And I pray for my old friends 1509 01:10:22,389 --> 01:10:25,184 and hope that they will see the way one day. 1510 01:10:26,101 --> 01:10:28,061 But there are consequences to this choice. 1511 01:10:28,061 --> 01:10:29,563 But then the Bible says if you are 1512 01:10:29,563 --> 01:10:31,607 not willing to leave, 1513 01:10:31,607 --> 01:10:34,776 even father, mother, wife, friend, 1514 01:10:34,776 --> 01:10:36,445 for the sake of Jesus Christ, 1515 01:10:36,445 --> 01:10:38,112 then you're not worthy of Him. 1516 01:10:40,449 --> 01:10:42,659 - When I was introduced to this message 1517 01:10:42,659 --> 01:10:45,077 I was skeptical of all religions. 1518 01:10:46,246 --> 01:10:48,207 Skeptical of the Bible. 1519 01:10:49,958 --> 01:10:51,418 I looked at it as a book that was 1520 01:10:51,418 --> 01:10:54,755 just written by, you know, men. 1521 01:10:54,755 --> 01:10:59,134 And when I was introduced to the prophetic element 1522 01:10:59,134 --> 01:11:03,472 of this message, I could not find any error in it. 1523 01:11:03,472 --> 01:11:06,975 And it terrified me because I thought 1524 01:11:06,975 --> 01:11:09,311 there's no such thing as real truth. 1525 01:11:09,311 --> 01:11:10,896 It terrified me because I knew that 1526 01:11:10,896 --> 01:11:12,940 if this was true, there were changes 1527 01:11:12,940 --> 01:11:14,148 I would need to make in my life 1528 01:11:14,148 --> 01:11:16,527 and at the time I was a hip-hop artist, 1529 01:11:16,527 --> 01:11:19,237 touring, an eight album contract. 1530 01:11:19,237 --> 01:11:22,574 I was living what I thought was life. 1531 01:11:22,574 --> 01:11:25,452 And so coming face to face 1532 01:11:25,452 --> 01:11:28,246 with the three angels messages, 1533 01:11:30,207 --> 01:11:32,459 there was a decision that I had to make. 1534 01:11:32,459 --> 01:11:34,837 The first angel said this is truth, 1535 01:11:34,837 --> 01:11:37,422 the second angel said this is error, 1536 01:11:37,422 --> 01:11:39,550 and the third angel said choose. 1537 01:11:39,550 --> 01:11:43,637 And I saw the truth, understood it, 1538 01:11:43,637 --> 01:11:46,431 saw the error, understood it. 1539 01:11:46,431 --> 01:11:49,101 I said okay, I have to make my choice. 1540 01:11:49,101 --> 01:11:50,686 There's nothing else I can do. 1541 01:11:50,686 --> 01:11:55,523 And I turned away, left a million dollar contract. 1542 01:11:55,523 --> 01:11:58,610 Said, alright Lord, I'm ready. 113453
