  8. Thank you, Lord. [music] Yes, I agree with that right now. I agree with that prayer, Lord. God, we've seen [music] you heal people's bodies recently. We thank you that there is healing. By your stripes, we [music] were healed. There is provision made. Just like you made provision for the forgiveness [music] of sin, you made provision for the healing of the body. You made provision to give [music] us authority and power over all the power of the enemy. [music] And we're just thankful, Lord, that through your precious blood and your resurrection, Lord, you've given [music] us, Lord, the authority to use your name to do [music] the works you did to believe it with all of our heart. We believe it, Lord, that you are the same yesterday, today, and forever. And you still work and you still move through your people. [music] And you still do miracles. And the gifts of the Holy Spirit are still for today. And Lord, we want to [music] be a people, Lord, that yield to you, that surrender to you. And that you could work through us, Lord, any way you choose. [music] So many people that need to know you in this world, Lord, they don't know you. Help us reach [music] those Jesus name this morning. Yes, Lord. Hallelujah. Thank you'all. Y'all may be seated this morning. We welcome everybody. Fire and Grace Church. I don't know. I tell you what, I've sensed a little bit of a spiritual battle today, but there's always reasons for things. Um, you can turn me up just a hair if you want to. That air conditioner sounds loud in my ears from some reason this morning. No, we probably need it on um I want everybody just real quick before we get into some of the slides, PowerPoint slides, before I even start that, I want to um I want to read something. I think I quoted it last week, but I want to read it. But you know, this is a passage of scripture that we tend to read around Christmas time. But in Isaiah chapter 9, verse 6, we'll just put that up here on the screen if y'all will. Is that working? Okay, good deal. Now, [sighs] this is uh one of the mysteries of Christianity that's hard for a lot of people to wrap their brain around about who Jesus is. And you know, I talked about this last week some when I did the message preaching the gospel that we have to know what Jesus we're talking about because Paul warned in 2

  9. Corinthians 11 that there would be those who would come who preach another Jesus. they would have another spirit. They would preach a different gospel. Um, and so we're going to further define this today as we look into uh this today. But I just again want to emphasize and I'm going to continue to emphasize this uh because we have people that watch. In fact uh we had Beijing watching. You know the internet's pretty tightly controlled in China but uh so that means some government officials in Beijing were watching the other day. Um but we have Russia, uh China, I mean countries all over the world watch and a lot of them have been taught wrong things about who Jesus is. They have their own ideas and a lot of pe a lot of people even in America uh have their own ideas who Jesus is. Like I said last week, the the Mormons think that he was just a man or uh you know that he was uh Lucifer's brother. So, kind of, you know, some of them believe he's uh Michael the Archangel, which makes no sense because Michael's Michael, but um I mean, there's all kinds of ideas who Jesus is. Like I shared last week, Islam, they call him Issa, but Islam does not believe he is the son of God or God in the flesh. They don't believe he died on the cross. So, the Jesus of Islam is a completely different Jesus than what the Bible teaches. And not just not just the New Testament, but the Old Testament because this prophecy was written by Isaiah and we know it was written in 750 BC. It wasn't written after the fact. It wasn't written after Jesus was born. [gasps] It was written 750 years approximately before Jesus. And it tells us something about him that we have to believe if we're true Christians. And he says this, "Unto us, for unto us a child is born. Unto us a son is given." So we're going to see what he's born and he is a son. And then it says, "The government shall be upon his shoulders." Meaning he's also what? The foundation of all authority. Somebody say foundation. That's gonna be important this morning. He's the foundation of everything. All power and authority. And then it tells you his name shall be called wonderful counselor the mighty God. Somebody say the mighty God. The L. So the son is also called God. Then the one that really blows people's mind. He will be called the mighty God, the everlasting father and the prince of peace. Now, this is hard sometimes for us to wrap around our brains around that the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit are one.

  10. One entity, one God with three very distinct parts, but one one and the same. And I've shared it this way just maybe to help somebody out there that hadn't heard this before, but remember First Thessalonians, you can put this verse up. 1 Thessalonians 5:23, Paul praying for the Thessalonians, he said, "I pray that your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ." Everybody got that? So, Genesis 1:26 says, "We were created in the image of God. Therefore, if me as a human being created in the image of God, if I have a spirit, a soul, and a body, three distinct parts, yet there's just one of me. If there's more deings running around, they've cloned me. And that's that's immoral, illegal, and right. But there's one me, but I have three distinct parts. God is the same and this is what we need to understand. He is a triune being father, son and holy spirit. But when Jesus said to Philillip, Philip asked the question, show us the father and it will satisfy us. And Jesus said these words, if you've seen me, you've seen the father. Now can you imagine? Now the Bible says that Jesus is the image or the physical representation of God. He is the image of God. Colossians says Colossians chapter 2 says Paul stated very plainly Jesus is the fullness of the Godhead bodily. Amen. This is a fundamental foundational doctrine of the Bible, of Christianity, of who Jesus is. And we've got to, even if our brain can't fully wrap around all that, this is what the Bible teaches. The Son is also the mighty God. Amen. And that's why he's the only one that could come and atone or pay the price, the sacrifice, become the atoning sacrifice for our sins. No other human being, no other person, no other entity, no other spirit could do that. Only God becoming a man could do that for us. Now this again foundational to Christianity, right? And let's uh let's look at this verse before we I give you the title and show you that. But go to Isaiah.

  11. Well, I guess you're already in Isaiah, but go to chapter um 28. Isaiah 28. And we're going to go down to, let's see here. Again, this is a prophecy of Jesus that Jesus actually quoted about himself, but we're going to go down to verse uh 16. Are you there? So, here's a prophecy again in Isaiah. And we know again, how do we know that Isaiah was written 750 years before Jesus appeared on the scene? We know that because the copper scroll of Isaiah was found in the Dead Sea Scrolls in 1947 and um we found out of course we know that th those Dead Sea Scrolls date back to about 300 BC. Um of course we have the Septuagent version that was translated the Old Testament translated from Hebrew to Greek in around 250 to 248 BC. So, we've had the book of Isaiah. It's been known in history. Um, it's we've got archaeological proof. All of it was written beforehand. And that's why Isaiah is so powerful because it tells us the son is also God. It tells us in Isaiah 7:14, he would be born of the virgin, right? Tells us a lot of stuff. Tells us his ministry would began in Galilee. I mean, think about that. 750 years before Jesus. Now, why am I bringing this up? Because again there were no scriptures there were no ancient scriptures foretelling the rise of Muhammad or Buddha or Krishna. You understand the Bible is absolutely when it comes to religious books is absolutely unique in this regard and very specific prophecies. Even the book of Daniel narrows down the exact time period the Messiah would appear and says that he would be cut off or killed but not for himself. Isaiah 53, all right, says that he would what? Become the atonement for our souls. That he would be buried in a rich man's tomb. That by his stripes we would be healed. Meaning he would be beaten on on his back. Psalm 22, his hands and feet would be pierced. I mean, these are very specific things. Micah 5:2, he would be born in Bethlehem, the one that would be ruler whose origin, what it says, it doesn't say origin, right? If it says origin in your Bible, it's wrong. It says who goes back from to what? Everlasting. That he's eternal. Right now, I bring all this up because here's a prophecy in Isaiah as well that says

  12. about Jesus, verse 16, "Therefore, thus sayeth the Lord God, behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation stone, a tried stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation. He that believeth shall not make haste or be confounded or confused." So Jesus was also called even back in the Old Testament before he came and said, "I am the rock on which I'm going to build the church." He was called what? The cornerstone, the chief cornerstone, the precious cornerstone, the stone of stumbling, the rock of offense. Right now go to Psalm 18. Got to lay you the foundation before we get into it. Psalm 118. Oh, I said 118. I said 118. I'm sorry. 118. Psalm 118. And it says this again about Jesus. It says in verse 22, 118 verse 22, the stone which the builders refused or rejected is become the headstone of the corner. This is the Lord's doing and it is marvelous in our eyes. Then I want you to turn to Matthew chapter 21. say, "We shouldn't have to study the Bible in church, Pastor Dean. Well, then study it at home." Some of you don't do that. So, you got to study it in church with me. Right now, let's go down to this parable here. We're going to go to verse 33. He says, "Hear another parable. There was a certain house builder which planted a vineyard and hedged it round about and digged a wine press in it and built a tower and led it out to husbandmen and went into a far country. And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen that he might receive the fruits of it. And the husbandman took his servants and beat one and killed another and stoned another. And again he sent other servants more than the first, and they did unto them likewise. But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son. But when the husbandman saw the son, they said among themselves, "This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance." And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him. And when the Lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto

  13. those husbandmen? And they say unto him, he will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruit in their seasons. And Jesus saith him, did you never read in the scriptures, the stone which the builders rejected, the same has become the head of the corner? This is the Lord's doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes. He says, "Therefore, I say unto you," and he's speaking to the Pharisees here. He says, "I say unto you, the kingdom of God shall be taken from you and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof. And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken, but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder." And when the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they perceived that he spake of them. It's amazing they figured that out, isn't it? But when they sought to lay hands on him, uh they feared the multitude because they took him for a prophet. Um now what I've entitled today this is simply this is the rejected one and we're going to get to that what that picture is right there. Um, this is the the statue. Nebuchadnezzar had a dream and then he made a statue of this that he saw in his dream, which he wasn't really supposed to do. But he ordered everybody to worship it. But the in the dream, a stone that was not touched or cut out by man's hands comes down, a great stone like a mountain comes down from heaven and hits the feet of this thing and destroys it. Now I'm going to tell you what this this represents a little bit. You know the king the head there is uh he says Nebuchadnezzar you were the head thereof. That was Babylon. Now these are nations that have persecuted Israel and of course ends up persecuting the church as well. But you had Babylon then they were taken over by the shoulders and the chest area. That's the the head was gold. That was Babylon. Silver was Media Persia which two arms media and Persia they took over Babylon and the 120 provinces. Then the bronze chest area girdle area was Greece. They came in and conquered after uh the kingdom of Alexander the Great. Of course it broke up and then became the legs of iron represented the Roman Empire. And that's one of the reasons that the legs they the Roman Empire lasted longer and the Roman Empire was divided into east and west. The final kingdom that will be a problem are the feet. And the feet are different. They're iron mixed with clay and they have the 10 toes. The 10 toes represent the 10 kings that shall arise to rule the world with the antichrist. The iron mixed with clay shows that the Roman Empire will try to mix with I believe

  14. the Arab nations because the clay represents each each metal represented a people or nation group. I believe that this represents the clay represents the Arab nations because it says that they were mixed or mingled together, the iron and [clears throat] the clay. And the word in Hebrew for mixed and mingled is Arab. So they were Arabed together. But it says that they won't adhere one to another. And as we're seeing in Europe right now that uh they Europe's allowed the mass migration of Muslims into Western Europe uh it's not working out too well. The Roman Empire, the Western civilization and Muslim civilizations not they don't go together. They don't work together. But it's interesting, the Bible foretold that this would be mingled together at the end. Okay? And then this stone comes out of heaven. [cough] Now Jesus says that he's the rock. Let's go to Matthew 16 real quick. I guess I'm just going to read most of my scriptures first before I share with you what I feel like I'm supposed to give you here. But this is the famous Matthew 16:13, the famous sermon that Jesus gave in discussion with his disciples. And he said, "When Jesus came to the coast of Cesaria Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, who do men or whom do men say that I, the son of man, am?" And they said, "Some say that thou art John the Baptist, some Elijah, others Jeremiah, one of the prophets." He saith in him, "But whom say ye that I am?" And Simon Peter answered and said, "Thou art the Christ," which it's interesting, Christ, Messiah, anointed one. But that refers to, I believe, the deity side of Jesus. And then he says, "The son of the living God also God and the Son." And Jesus answered and said to him, "Blessed art thou, Simon Barjonah, for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my father which is in heaven. And I say also unto thee, that thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. and I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven. And whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven. And whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Uh and then he charged his disciples that they should tell no man. That he was Jesus the Christ. Now of course at that time now Jesus is this stone. And let's go to one more passage. 1 Peter chapter 2. I'm going to read this. The Bible gives us these um these metaphors for a reason that we're to look into and we're to understand.

  15. What did I just say? First Peter. Just go down to 1 Peter 2:7 and 8. Just put that up there. Now he's talking about Jesus and he says unto you therefore which believe he is precious. Now the word precious in the in the Greek is té. It means there is no price. It's priceless. It's beyond right to you who believe Jesus is precious, unique, priceless. It says, "And but unto them which are disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed or rejected, the same as made the head of the corner." Verse eight, a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient, where to appointed. Now Jesus talked about too when they the parable, well not the parable but the sermon on the mount where he talked about the man that obeys the word of God builds his house on the rock on a solid foundation. The man who is disobedient to the Lord to the word of God builds his house on sand. And when the storms come to both, the storm comes to both. The one built on the rock stands. The one built on the sand is going to be washed away with the storm. Now, I say all that because the Lord laid on my heart again to just remind you the world is fine with you talking about Jesus. Even though the name of Jesus irritates demons and irritates people full of demons, okay? But they will stomach you talking about Jesus a little bit. That's why nobody gets upset and you say Jesus loves you, they go, "Yeah, wonderful." Right? But when you start defining who he is, who he really is, what he has done on the cross for you and for me, his resurrection from the dead, and his demands that all men everywhere must repent and believe the gospel. That's when you become an offense. That's when they want to lay hands on you and not in a nice way, right? And I was looking at this and you got to understand that if if somebody now because Europe is so taken over by Islam, by Muslims, that if somebody goes out into the street full of Muslims and preaches that Jesus Christ is God in the flesh, died on the cross for your sins, rose from the dead on the third day, is the only

  16. way to be forgiven of sin to be saved, they will kill that person because to them that is absolute blasphemy because they have lifted up Muhammad above Jesus. Now the Bible told us Jesus said this. He said before we get to the very end, he said in Matthew 24 when they ask him what will be the sign of your coming, the end of the age, he said there'll be going to be wars and rumors of wars, earthquakes in diverse places, great earthquakes, actually mega quakes. He talks about and then he says what? Take heed no man deceive you. Many false prophets will rise and deceive many. Right? And then they're going to take you and you're going to be hated of all nations for my name's sake. You're going to be hated of all nations and they're going to take some of you and they're going to kill you and they're going to put you in prison. They're going to beat you and all this stuff. What we're seeing right now politically speaking in the world is we're seeing the red horse, which is communism, socialism, and the green horse, which is Islam out of the four horsemen. We're seeing them unite together. Think about it. And I mean, there's many articles I could quote. There's many things going on. There's books being written about the Red Green Alliance. And I've showed you in the four horsemen is clearly the colors and the clues are very significant. We know the red horse of war is the movement of communism and socialism. We know the green horse who it says in the end would have authority or power over one quarter of the earth. That's exactly the number of Muslims in the world right now. One quarter of the earth. We know it says death is the rider on the green horse. Death and hell follows after him. What you know out of those four horsemen, you've got the white one, the black one, right? The red one, and the green one. What comes right after the green one? The fifth seal is martyrdom. Those that are going to be slain. And it's interesting that the the mass martyrdom of Christians that's going to happen in the last days is by beheading. Hm. What religion that hates Christians, wants to kill Christians, also beheads people? Muslims. Exactly. And what you don't understand right now is that these four horsemen of the apocalypse which are spirits ideologies behind them working that even though in areas where they absolutely oppose each other I mean

  17. think about a left-wing blue greenhaired socialist in America who's homosexual um transgender and all this other stuff if they move to say, I don't know, Saudi Arabia, what do you think would happen to that person? Oh, yeah. They're thrown off a building. They're not going to be tolerated. Why? Because in Islam, homosexuality is a is a sin for which they will kill you, right? But right now you see in America that these socialist liberal people are joining with Islamist. Why would they join together and work together when they're so like, you know, the liberals are so pro-woman and pro- feminism and all this stuff? Do you think Islam is no? Why would so such opposite ideologies work together? There's only one reason. They have a common enemy. You, me. And their goal has been, I mean, the Islamist goal has been for years to infiltrate Western civilization and destroy it from within. Now, I was going to show some stuff this morning. My grandchildren are here. Some of them are here. And I was going to show some stuff that would have been very disturbing. So, I'm not showing that today. All right. I was just going to show some recent headlines from Europe about what's going on. It's beyond It's really beyond imagination. What uncontrolled immigration the allowing of an anti-freedom, anti- democracy religion has allowed to happen in Europe. um just the the the degree of rapes and stuff going on in the country now right now. This just happened the other day. So in Virginia, in [laughter] the Commonwealth of Virginia, all right, the home of many of our founding fathers, a Muslim is elected to the to the state senate of Virginia and joins with a liberal socialist Democrat governor, writes an anti-

  18. gun anti-second amendment bill and gets it passed and it's going to the governor to sign and you think she's not going to sign it. One of the most, this should be one of the most troubling things that we are seeing because we're seeing these Muslims now starting to get elected in America working with socialist, communist, democrats to make sure that they disarm you so that you cannot resist what's coming. Because see, they disarmed Europe. They disarmed Australia. They want to disarm America. So, we cannot resist. Now, let me just say this. As a Christian, I want peace with all men. I'm not going out to kill, hunt down Muslims, and kill anybody or try to force anybody to convert to Christianity. That's not what we do. But I will not have my wife, my daughter, my grandchildren tortured, killed, raped by a bunch of Muslim fanatics. And that's why I have certain firearms and plenty of ammunition to go with them because I will resist the green horse. You understand? Now, what we're about to see in the United States is the increase of these attacks from different Muslim cells and groups across the country that slipped in through the southern border, slipped in through the Canadian border. We allowed in, our presidents allowed mass migration. And it wasn't just people from Mexico, y'all. They found a lot of prayer rugs in the desert between Mexico and United States. I have people I know, friends of mine that work um one guy worked in uh he was just recently retired, but he worked in the border control for 30 years. He told me about it. Oh, he said, 'You wouldn't believe how many coming across the border are Middle Eastern. And I guarantee you they're not Israelis. And we sit here in our little comfortable little worlds thinking things are going to just go on as always. It's not. Say, Pastor Dean, you've been preaching this stuff now since starting this church. You've been preaching this stuff about the second coming of Jesus and the prophecies and all these things and it still hadn't happened. Let me tell you, I don't know. I don't have a time frame, but I can sure look around

  19. at the season and whether it's now or 20 years from now, which I still honestly believe it's in my lifetime. Can you imagine? Just think about where we are right now. artificial intelligence, the move toward digital banking, digital money, brain implants, implants that can be scanned to control buying and selling and control your identity. Everything the Bible told, some of which couldn't even have happened until the last, say, 10 years or so. It's all here. Think about where we will be in five more years. 10 more years. I am disturbed. Um I know people have their different feelings about Trump and about the war and everything else. Frankly, I don't care. what your feelings are about it. But I'll say this, I don't agree with Trump on everything he does, but he's been one of our better presidents in the last 30 years. Let's just put it this way. What I'm concerned is not with Trump right now. I'm more concerned about who comes after him because I don't see any good choices. Oh, but JD Vance. Oh, okay. JD Vance completely funded by Peter Theal, a homosexual guy who runs Palunteer who basically is gathering data on all of you so the government can spy on you and who's somehow obsessed with the Antichrist and the mark of the beast and thinks that it's a good thing and that anybody against the mark of the beast, they're bad. This is Peter Theo. This is the guy who gave JD Vance $20 million to run for the Senate. I don't know anybody give me $20 million, right? People don't just hand out $20 million for no reason, right? So, do I trust JD Vance? No. And frankly, I don't trust any of Trump's children. Who's coming next? And here's the thing. Will they know really know the Lord Jesus, the true Jesus? Will they know what's happening around them? Will they even be able to filter it all out and understand the

  20. because the deception is going to be so strong on every side. I mean, and and again, regardless what you think of Trump, he is a force of nature and is going to believe what he wants to believe for the most part. Think about it. He's a very strong willed individual. I can't imagine if we get some passive little weenie in there. See, I I'm I'm I'm deeply concerned. But here's the here's the deal. I'm I put this up here because and called this the rejected one because isn't it isn't it crazy that we have a world out here? Look at Hollywood, TV, Netflix, all the way. They don't use Muhammad as a cuss word. They don't use Buddha as a cuss word. They don't use Bob Saget as a cuss word. like Jordan does. Why is it that they use the name of Jesus as a slur, as a cuss word? Why do they mix it with the f word and GD and everything and they throw the name of Jesus in there? You never will hear him curse Muhammad or Buddha or any of the other gods, right? Just Jesus. You know why? Because they know what he's coming back to do. And they hate him preemptively. You understand? They hate him. They know. You say, "Pastor, how do you how do you know they I know they know." Why do you think Zuckerberg and these people are building these massive underground bunkers? If they thought they were winning or going to win, why would they spend tens of millions, hundreds of millions of dollars on underground bunkers to protect their 1:00:051 hour, 5 secondsgold, their their silver with plenty of food and seeds and everything? 1:00:121 hour, 12 secondsA lot of them are moving to Montana. Hm. I wonder why. 1:00:181 hour, 18 secondsWhat does the Bible tell us? They will dig these underground bunkers 1:00:261 hour, 26 secondsbecause they're they're trying to hide from this rock that's coming. 1:00:341 hour, 34 secondsRight. Let's let's read it. Go to Revelation 6 real quick. 1:00:411 hour, 41 secondsRevelation 6. 1:00:561 hour, 56 secondsWhat's it say here? 1:01:001 hour, 1 minuteNow, this is right after the great persecution, the fifth seal, the sixth seal that opens. He says here, 1:01:081 hour, 1 minute, 8 seconds"And I beheld, and when he had opened the sixth seal, lo, there was a great earthquake, and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, the moon became as 1:01:171 hour, 1 minute, 17 secondsblood, and the stars of heaven fell into the earth." That means all of them, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, 1:01:241 hour, 1 minute, 24 secondswhen she is shaken of a mighty wind. And the heaven departed as a scroll, when it is rolled together, and every mountain and island were moved out of their 1:01:321 hour, 1 minute, 32 secondsplaces. And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bond man, and every free man, hid 1:01:401 hour, 1 minute, 40 secondsthemselves in the dens, and in the rocks of the mountains, and said to the mountains and rocks, "Follow us, and hide us from the face of him that siteth 1:01:471 hour, 1 minute, 47 secondson the throne, and from the wrath of the lamb, that is the real Jesus Christ of Nazareth. For the great day of his wrath 1:01:541 hour, 1 minute, 54 secondsis come, who shall be able to stand?" They know this day is coming. 1:02:031 hour, 2 minutes, 3 secondsGo to Revelation 17. 1:02:101 hour, 2 minutes, 10 secondsJust look up elite billionaires building bunkers. Just do Google search that. 1:02:181 hour, 2 minutes, 18 secondsRevelation 17 verse 12. 1:02:231 hour, 2 minutes, 23 secondsAnd the 10 horns which thou sawest are 10 kings which have received no kingdom as yet, but shall receive power as kings, one hour with the beast. These have one mind. They'll be fully united. 1:02:371 hour, 2 minutes, 37 secondsThey have one mind, one purpose, one plan, one vision. And they shall give their power and strength unto the beast. 1:02:441 hour, 2 minutes, 44 secondsNow that is a man, the antichrist, and his world government. And it says, "These shall make war with the Lamb, 1:02:531 hour, 2 minutes, 53 secondsand the Lamb shall overcome them, for he is Lord of Lords and King of Kings, and they that are with him are called and 1:02:591 hour, 2 minutes, 59 secondschosen and faithful. These shall make war with the Lamb." 1:03:061 hour, 3 minutes, 6 secondsSee, when you get ready to make war, you do a number of things. You plan. You prepare. 1:03:161 hour, 3 minutes, 16 secondsYou dig bunkers. 1:03:191 hour, 3 minutes, 19 secondsYou try to build weapons, [snorts] mass-roduce weapons. You try to store food, oil. 1:03:301 hour, 3 minutes, 30 secondsYou get what I'm saying? Fuel. 1:03:331 hour, 3 minutes, 33 secondsThe preparations are being made by these people because they have rejected the rock of ages. 1:03:461 hour, 3 minutes, 46 secondsSee, he's the rejected one by this world system. Think about it. 1:03:521 hour, 3 minutes, 52 secondsThe majority of your two billion Chinese reject Jesus and follow the red horse of communism. 1:04:021 hour, 4 minutes, 2 secondsTwo billion plus Muslims reject the Lord Jesus Christ, the rock of ages and follow the false prophet Muhammad. 1:04:141 hour, 4 minutes, 14 secondsAnother billion plus follow the queen of heaven in Roman Catholicism with Mary Mary worship. 1:04:251 hour, 4 minutes, 25 secondsRoman Catholicism, the idolatry. 1:04:291 hour, 4 minutes, 29 secondsThe majority of this world has rejected Jesus. And you have another class of 1:04:351 hour, 4 minutes, 35 secondspeople who worship UFOs and aliens because they ain't figured out that they're demons and fallen angels yet. 1:04:431 hour, 4 minutes, 43 secondsBut they worship these things and that's a religion. In fact, I got a book called The American Cosmic that foretold that 1:04:501 hour, 4 minutes, 50 secondsone of one great part of the last world religion is going to be the the worship of the aliens as God, 1:04:591 hour, 4 minutes, 59 secondsright? That deception is going to be kind of the final the final icing on the cake of the cake of deception, right? 1:05:101 hour, 5 minutes, 10 secondsTrump's all up in it. Trump's about we just saw this week uh the the United States government just 1:05:191 hour, 5 minutes, 19 secondsI guess bought the uh what is it the URL aliens.gov gov. What's that? 1:05:281 hour, 5 minutes, 28 secondsDomain name. 1:05:311 hour, 5 minutes, 31 secondsI think it's in July there. I I think this year 2026 full disclosure of all 1:05:381 hour, 5 minutes, 38 secondsgovernment military contact and probably to the proof I think it's going to have to go true 1:05:461 hour, 5 minutes, 46 secondsdisclosure was going to go a step further because really they've already disclosed everything, right? I mean, you got military planes chasing UFOs and 1:05:551 hour, 5 minutes, 55 secondseverything else, right? I think the next step is they're going to some some world leader is going to have to walk out with one of them. And if Trump has his way, 1:06:031 hour, 6 minutes, 3 secondshe'll be the one. Push his way to the front of the line. No, I'm I mean, we're with this guy. 1:06:101 hour, 6 minutes, 10 secondsAnd I think Trump is completely deceived by them. I think our government's made made contact. It's not 1:06:181 hour, 6 minutes, 18 secondsextraterrestrials. They're not from galaxies far far away. It's all nonsense. 1:06:231 hour, 6 minutes, 23 secondsBut they have perpetrated this lie. They have these fallen angels and Nephilim 1:06:301 hour, 6 minutes, 30 secondsthese they have presented themselves to our government and military and governments of the world military. And I know I had a I had a email conversation 1:06:381 hour, 6 minutes, 38 secondswith the minister of uh defense of Canada Paul Helier. And Paul Helier, I'm telling you, he's passed away now, but 1:06:481 hour, 6 minutes, 48 secondshe was absolutely convinced that there were four species of aliens. He had met 1:06:541 hour, 6 minutes, 54 secondsthem and there were two good uh groups and two bad ones. 1:07:001 hour, 7 minutesAnd he believed this and he was the defense minister of Canada. Can you imagine? 1:07:081 hour, 7 minutes, 8 secondsWhat does Tony Blair know? 1:07:121 hour, 7 minutes, 12 secondsWhat does Barack Obama know? What does Trump know? 1:07:181 hour, 7 minutes, 18 secondsBut again, the Bible says that they would be what? Deceiving people and they themselves being deceived by this. 1:07:331 hour, 7 minutes, 33 secondsAnd guess what? every time the, you know, you've got these trans channelers that channel, you know, allegedly channel aliens talking to them from far away. 1:07:431 hour, 7 minutes, 43 secondsAnd you know what they always do? They always make Jesus out to be, "No, no, no. He's not God. He's not the creator. 1:07:501 hour, 7 minutes, 50 secondsHe's just an ascended master like Buddha." But now the research has shown even 1:07:581 hour, 7 minutes, 58 secondssecular researchers, you know this, secular researchers and Christian researchers have talked to thousands of 1:08:061 hour, 8 minutes, 6 secondspeople who have gone through alien abduction incidences. And it's amazing that every time someone actually invokes 1:08:141 hour, 8 minutes, 14 secondsand prays in the name of Jesus, that ceases. the abduction or whatever's going on in the weird encounter ceases 1:08:211 hour, 8 minutes, 21 secondswhen they rebuke this those entities in the name of Jesus. Now, ain't it amazing how 1:08:301 hour, 8 minutes, 30 secondsthe de these aliens will trans channel just like witches and mediums and when they show up in your room and start 1:08:371 hour, 8 minutes, 37 secondsacting acting a fool and you rebuke them in the name of Jesus, they they they leave. It's funny. They act just like demon spirits and fallen angels, right? 1:08:461 hour, 8 minutes, 46 secondsImagine that. But most of this world, think about this, most of this world, more people believe that aliens are real 1:08:541 hour, 8 minutes, 54 secondsfrom other planets and galaxies far far away. More people believe that in Europe than believe in God. 1:09:031 hour, 9 minutes, 3 secondsAnother reason why they have been completely taken over by socialist and Islamist. 1:09:141 hour, 9 minutes, 14 secondsLook, the only defense and resistance to this in the world, y'all listen to me closely. The only defense and the only 1:09:221 hour, 9 minutes, 22 secondsresistance to these powerful satanic forces, whether it be Satan working through his Islam or 1:09:321 hour, 9 minutes, 32 secondscommunism, socialism, through China, through whatever, through the bankers, the black horse. 1:09:391 hour, 9 minutes, 39 secondsOh, by the way, I was making some pictures. 1:09:431 hour, 9 minutes, 43 secondsI was had uh what is it? One of them the art list the thing I use to get music from. I was having it make some pictures 1:09:521 hour, 9 minutes, 52 secondsbecause it's got an AI section. I had it make trying to get it to make me a picture of the black horse that I wanted. And I said I want a black horse 1:09:591 hour, 9 minutes, 59 secondswith a guy riding it dressed in a Jesuit robe 1:10:061 hour, 10 minutes, 6 secondswith a Jesuit robe. Right. With 666 on his forehead. 1:10:121 hour, 10 minutes, 12 secondsOkay. Then I wanted skyscrapers in the background that said JP Morgan Chase, Black Rockck, State Street, right? 1:10:251 hour, 10 minutes, 25 secondsIt would not make the picture for me. 1:10:281 hour, 10 minutes, 28 secondsNow, I had it make the Red Horse picture for me. Hold on, I'll show y'all. I had it make the Islamic green horse picture for me because I wanted some specific 1:10:371 hour, 10 minutes, 37 secondsthings in them. So, I was making Hold on, I'm going to show you. 1:10:401 hour, 10 minutes, 40 secondsHere, I'll get my wife to send it. Here, babe. 1:10:461 hour, 10 minutes, 46 secondsCome here and send these if you would to them. 1:10:511 hour, 10 minutes, 51 secondsOh, you know what? I didn't download all of them. But I'll just show you. It made the the uh 1:10:591 hour, 10 minutes, 59 secondsthe Islam one for me. I'm going to use this. I'm about to do a series on Islam. So, but y'all see it. 1:11:071 hour, 11 minutes, 7 secondsSo, it made the Islam one for me. It made the communist red horse one. It made the white horse one wouldn't make 1:11:141 hour, 11 minutes, 14 secondsmy Jesuit priest black rock wouldn't make it the black horse. So I had to adjust it. 1:11:241 hour, 11 minutes, 24 secondsSo basically Yeah. Oh yeah. See I I even took screenshots. It said something went wrong. 1:11:331 hour, 11 minutes, 33 secondsSo when I took out when I I had to take out Jesuit priest, I had to take out Black Rockck, I had to take out JP 1:11:411 hour, 11 minutes, 41 secondsMorgan Chase, I had to take all that out, all the specifics of that, then it made the picture for me. 1:11:511 hour, 11 minutes, 51 secondsSo don't trust AI. It's cheating. 1:11:541 hour, 11 minutes, 54 secondsIf they don't want you to know it or they don't want you to present it to somebody, then they will shut you off from it. Right? 1:12:041 hour, 12 minutes, 4 secondsNow, go back with me to this. I I'm going back to the thing about our resistance. 1:12:121 hour, 12 minutes, 12 secondsGo back to Matthew 16. 1:12:181 hour, 12 minutes, 18 secondsSee, the Catholic Church misuses this because the church is not built upon Peter. 1:12:261 hour, 12 minutes, 26 secondsAnd this is why you need to know the Greek language. Sometimes you need to look into the actual Greek words because 1:12:321 hour, 12 minutes, 32 secondsPeter's name in Greek meant pebble or stone, right? A little a little rock, a 1:12:391 hour, 12 minutes, 39 secondspebble. We could call Peter Pebbles, right? 1:12:461 hour, 12 minutes, 46 secondsGo down to the verse um yeah 18. 1:12:541 hour, 12 minutes, 54 secondsBut when Jesus says upon this rock is the word the Greek word Petra means a massive 1:13:021 hour, 13 minutes, 2 secondsmassive rock like a mountain rock. And when Jesus was saying upon this rock 1:13:101 hour, 13 minutes, 10 secondshe was saying the revelation knowing who I am. See, Peter had a spiritual Holy 1:13:171 hour, 13 minutes, 17 secondsGhost revelation. He knew who Jesus was the and 1:13:251 hour, 13 minutes, 25 secondshe loved Jesus and he was completely submitted to Jesus as his Lord and Savior. He had left everything to follow Jesus. 1:13:381 hour, 13 minutes, 38 secondsAnd he tells him, he says, "You know what, Peter? on this rock, the rock of the revelation of who I am. 1:13:451 hour, 13 minutes, 45 secondsI will build my church and the gates of hell will not prevail against it. Now listen to me closely on this 1:13:531 hour, 13 minutes, 53 secondswe're about to go through could be in the days ahead. It could be in the weeks ahead. It could be in the months ahead. It could be in the years ahead. I don't know exactly when. 1:14:051 hour, 14 minutes, 5 secondsBut we're going to go through the church of Jesus Christ in the West in America. 1:14:101 hour, 14 minutes, 10 secondsIt's going to go through the greatest persecution that we've ever faced. 1:14:161 hour, 14 minutes, 16 secondsAnd it will be from these liberal socialist Democrat maniacs. 1:14:281 hour, 14 minutes, 28 secondsAnd it will be from radical Muslims. And when I say radical, I mean Muslims that follow Muhammad in the Quran. 1:14:391 hour, 14 minutes, 39 secondsNon-radical Muslims are just Muslims who don't live it. They don't live Islam fully. 1:14:471 hour, 14 minutes, 47 secondsBut if you read and I'm going to do a series on this, I'm I I the Lord's let me know to he wants me to do an in-depth series on Islam so you'll know exactly 1:14:561 hour, 14 minutes, 56 secondswhat they believe and exactly what they teach. So that's coming. the the last two messages are just waiting into the pool. Okay. 1:15:071 hour, 15 minutes, 7 secondsBut Jesus said, "On this rock, I will build my church. The gates of hell will not prevail against it." Many Christians, true born again 1:15:141 hour, 15 minutes, 14 secondsChristians that are part of the true church of Jesus Christ will be martyrs to this 1:15:221 hour, 15 minutes, 22 secondsinsane joining of forces between the socialists, communists [snorts] and the and the Islamists. 1:15:331 hour, 15 minutes, 33 secondsThis is going to happen. Okay? 1:15:361 hour, 15 minutes, 36 secondsBut also, the Lord is never, ever, ever going to allow his true church to be 1:15:431 hour, 15 minutes, 43 secondsfully extinguished in the earth. It's not going to happen. They will not succeed. Somebody say, "They will not succeed." They will not succeed. 1:15:521 hour, 15 minutes, 52 secondsAnd it's interesting again, uh, all these Israel haters, let me just share something with you, okay? 1:16:031 hour, 16 minutes, 3 secondsThe Bible foretold that there would be two groups of people that would be hated 1:16:121 hour, 16 minutes, 12 secondsand persecuted in the last days to the nth degree, the Jews and the true Christians. 1:16:221 hour, 16 minutes, 22 secondsSo this hatred for Jewish people and even for the Jewish nation of Israel, this hatred that is growing is the spirit of Antichrist 1:16:311 hour, 16 minutes, 31 secondsbecause ultimately it says that the entire world will turn on Israel, the nation of Israel, and surround them. 1:16:401 hour, 16 minutes, 40 secondsThis is Bible prophecy. This is what's going to happen. And you see the spirit of it stirring now. 1:16:511 hour, 16 minutes, 51 secondsYou understand? 1:16:531 hour, 16 minutes, 53 secondsNow, here's the thing. The Jews rejected Jesus. 1:16:591 hour, 16 minutes, 59 secondsAnd when he told them, when Jesus is speaking to them, when he says, "I'm going to take from you and what he was saying, I'm going to take," they see the Jews, he had told the Jews, you are my 1:17:081 hour, 17 minutes, 8 secondswitnesses. You are my light to the world. You're supposed to show me to the world. But when they rejected the Messiah, 1:17:151 hour, 17 minutes, 15 secondsJesus said, "I'm going to take this blessing, this calling from you. 1:17:211 hour, 17 minutes, 21 secondsand I'm going to give it to a nation that will bring forth the fruits of it. 1:17:251 hour, 17 minutes, 25 secondsI believe the nation God gave that to was the United States of America. 1:17:311 hour, 17 minutes, 31 secondsHe gave us their blessing because they rejected it because we accepted him. Our nation was founded by Christians, the pilgrims. Most of our founding fathers 1:17:391 hour, 17 minutes, 39 secondswere true born again Christians. I could go through the list. 1:17:431 hour, 17 minutes, 43 secondsThey weren't deists. They were Christians, devout Christians. 1:17:481 hour, 17 minutes, 48 secondsthe the sermon. It was it was a sermon given that was the Declaration of Independence. Jefferson plagiarized the 1:17:571 hour, 17 minutes, 57 secondspastor when he wrote the Declaration of Independence. 1:18:051 hour, 18 minutes, 5 secondsOur nation was founded to be the light of the world as a nation. 1:18:111 hour, 18 minutes, 11 secondsNow our government just like the Israeli government, our government has been evil and corrupt and done horrible things in the world. But the people of America, 1:18:191 hour, 18 minutes, 19 secondsthe majority of the people of America, our our country has been true Christians. We have funded sending the 1:18:271 hour, 18 minutes, 27 secondsgospel to the whole world. We have fed the poor. We have we have sent missionaries to every dark corner of the world. 1:18:371 hour, 18 minutes, 37 secondsNo other country's funded it like we have funded it. 1:18:421 hour, 18 minutes, 42 secondsI believe that's why God's had mercy upon us and not allowed full judgment to fall on America. 1:18:511 hour, 18 minutes, 51 secondsBut just like the Jews when they turned against him and became disobedient, judgment fell upon them. As America now, 1:19:001 hour, 19 minutesthe American church, the majority of churches and Christianity in America has turned against God. I'm not even talking about 1:19:081 hour, 19 minutes, 8 secondsthe unsaved. I'm talking about the church world. What calls themselves the church of Jesus Christ don't believe the 1:19:161 hour, 19 minutes, 16 secondsBible. Don't believe who he is. Don't surrender to him completely. And so what what do we have? 1:19:281 hour, 19 minutes, 28 secondsWe got Muslims taking over churches and turning them into mosques. 1:19:361 hour, 19 minutes, 36 secondsAnd a mosque becomes not just a mosque is not just a place of worship. It is a recruiting center, a military strategist strategy center. 1:19:521 hour, 19 minutes, 52 secondsNow we're at war with these things. 1:19:551 hour, 19 minutes, 55 secondsAnd maybe in the days ahead, I'll go back through the the white horse and the red horse and the black horse and the green horse and we'll cover that a 1:20:041 hour, 20 minutes, 4 secondslittle bit more thoroughly. But we are not going to be those that reject Jesus. And and let me say this, there 1:20:121 hour, 20 minutes, 12 secondsare a lot of people that say, "Oh, I love Jesus. I believe in Jesus." But their actions deny him and reject him. 1:20:211 hour, 20 minutes, 21 secondsIt's not about what you say or just what you say. It's what you do. Right? 1:20:291 hour, 20 minutes, 29 secondsYou know, I love that song y'all did this morning. I didn't know that y'all were g Where'd they go? Johnny. Oh, 1:20:391 hour, 20 minutes, 39 secondsJohnny got caught skipping out. What about this is my surrender? 1:20:481 hour, 20 minutes, 48 secondsOh, that American Christians could get this one thing. 1:20:521 hour, 20 minutes, 52 secondswhat it means to fully surrender and truly let Jesus Christ be Lord of their lives 1:21:001 hour, 21 minutesso that they could walk in the power he has provided for. Because see only that 1:21:071 hour, 21 minutes, 7 secondskind power is entrusted to people fully his fully surrendered to him. 1:21:181 hour, 21 minutes, 18 secondsAnd there's a lot of people that want power, but there's a price that's got to be paid. Surrender. 1:21:291 hour, 21 minutes, 29 secondsAnd I'm telling you, if you're going to be able to handle and stand through what is coming to 1:21:381 hour, 21 minutes, 38 secondsAmerica in the days ahead, you better be close to the rock. 1:21:471 hour, 21 minutes, 47 secondsYou know, if there's a big I'm standing out in the middle of a field and there's a big huge massive boulder there 1:21:551 hour, 21 minutes, 55 secondsand I'm standing away from it and people start shooting, guess where you better get. 1:22:071 hour, 22 minutes, 7 secondsI've been shot out in the field before. So, hear what I'm saying. 1:22:161 hour, 22 minutes, 16 secondsYou either get as close to the rock as you can get. 1:22:211 hour, 22 minutes, 21 secondsRight? Because what did he say? Jesus said talking about himself and as this stone he said whosoever falls upon this stone 1:22:291 hour, 22 minutes, 29 secondshumbles yourself and falls upon it surrenders to it. Right? He says that 1:22:351 hour, 22 minutes, 35 secondsperson will be saved. But the ones who are disobedient, right? 1:22:431 hour, 22 minutes, 43 secondsAnd then that stone has to fall upon them. 1:22:481 hour, 22 minutes, 48 secondsIt destroys it. So put this back up here. Jesus the rock. 1:22:561 hour, 22 minutes, 56 secondsThe title page. Jesus the rock is coming. 1:23:021 hour, 23 minutes, 2 secondsAnd and this thing representing all the kingdoms of the world that have continued on down to our present day. 1:23:101 hour, 23 minutes, 10 secondsThe whole thing's coming down. the whole system. Now, what does Daniel 2 say about this rock after it hits the feet destroys the kingdoms of this world, 1:23:191 hour, 23 minutes, 19 secondstheir system, their beast system? It says that rock becomes a mountain that fills the whole earth. And what that is talking about is that the kingdom of 1:23:271 hour, 23 minutes, 27 secondsJesus Christ from that point will take the entire earth and will completely 1:23:351 hour, 23 minutes, 35 secondsrule and reign forever more. 1:23:411 hour, 23 minutes, 41 secondsThink about this. We're about to see the end of an age, y'all. 1:23:481 hour, 23 minutes, 48 secondsAnd the start of a new one. And it's not new age. 1:23:561 hour, 23 minutes, 56 secondsIt's the kingdom of Jesus Christ of Nazareth who died on the cross and rose from the dead. Not an ascended master, 1:24:051 hour, 24 minutes, 5 secondsnot a spirit guide, not a great teacher, God Almighty in the flesh who came here and revealed himself. 1:24:181 hour, 24 minutes, 18 secondsThat one. So don't don't be in the minority. I mean uh not minority, don't be in the majority that 1:24:261 hour, 24 minutes, 26 secondsreject him. Be in the minority that love Jesus. because that's really all that matters now. It's not a race thing. It's 1:24:351 hour, 24 minutes, 35 secondsnot a politics thing. It's ends up it's real simple. You are with him or you are against him. And that's why Jesus said, 1:24:431 hour, 24 minutes, 43 seconds"You're either with me or you're against me. 1:24:471 hour, 24 minutes, 47 secondsThere's no in between. If you're lukewarm, you're against him." You understand? 1:24:551 hour, 24 minutes, 55 secondsPick a side. And I hope you pick and choose wisely. Amen. 1:25:011 hour, 25 minutes, 1 secondLet's play that song. Do they have that song? They don't have that song. The surrender song. 1:25:121 hour, 25 minutes, 12 secondsThe one she make room. 1:25:151 hour, 25 minutes, 15 secondsLet's stand. We're going to play this song before we leave. 1:25:211 hour, 25 minutes, 21 secondsI won't make y'all come back up here and do it again. Let's stand. 1:25:271 hour, 25 minutes, 27 secondsWe're going to do this one song before we go. Who's the rejected one? 1:25:381 hour, 25 minutes, 38 secondsWho's the stone of stumbling? The rock of offense. 1:25:431 hour, 25 minutes, 43 seconds[clears throat] See, Jesus, why Jesus said, "Blessed are they who are not offended at me." You know, there's a lot of people that are offended at Jesus because something bad happened to them. 1:25:541 hour, 25 minutes, 54 secondsThey're like, "Why did he allow Why did God allow this to happen to me? I'm not following him." Well, guess what? Bad stuff's going to happen to you anyway. 1:26:041 hour, 26 minutes, 4 secondsYou live in this world of evil people. Stuff's going to happen. 1:26:081 hour, 26 minutes, 8 secondsSo, after you get offended with Jesus, you reject him. And then stuff, bad stuff still keeps happen. Who you going to get offended with then? 1:26:191 hour, 26 minutes, 19 secondsI'd rather be with this guy than with these people. 1:26:281 hour, 26 minutes, 28 secondsAmen. 1:26:301 hour, 26 minutes, 30 secondsLet's let's let's pray. We're going to do this song. Father, help us understand 1:26:371 hour, 26 minutes, 37 secondswhat full surrender means, what true repentance means. 1:26:451 hour, 26 minutes, 45 secondsthat we can be like Peter who left everything to follow you. He left his fishing nets and his business. He had to leave his family for a season. 1:26:551 hour, 26 minutes, 55 secondsHe had to risk his life to be with you. 1:27:021 hour, 27 minutes, 2 secondsLet us understand that you want people fully surrendered, fully submitted, 1:27:111 hour, 27 minutes, 11 secondsready to fully follow you and obey you, whatever you want them to do. That that's what being a Christian really means. 1:27:191 hour, 27 minutes, 19 secondsAnything other than that is lukewarmness. And lukewarm gets spit out. 1:27:251 hour, 27 minutes, 25 secondsThere is no there is no allowing lukewarm Christianity. 1:27:321 hour, 27 minutes, 32 secondsSo Lord, I pray you reveal this and you help us to understand this and that Lord many 1:27:411 hour, 27 minutes, 41 secondsmore will hear the call to repentance [snorts] to believe the gospel of Jesus Christ, the good news that there is 1:27:481 hour, 27 minutes, 48 secondsforgiveness and there is power to stand in this evil world. 1:28:001 hour, 28 minutesLord, we pray this in Jesus name. 1:28:131 hour, 28 minutes, 13 seconds[music] 1:28:181 hour, 28 minutes, 18 seconds[music] 1:28:201 hour, 28 minutes, 20 secondsHere 1:28:261 hour, 28 minutes, 26 seconds[music] 1:28:331 hour, 28 minutes, 33 seconds[music] 1:28:421 hour, 28 minutes, 42 seconds[music] 1:28:461 hour, 28 minutes, 46 secondsis where I lay it down. 1:28:481 hour, 28 minutes, 48 seconds[singing and music] 1:28:501 hour, 28 minutes, 50 secondsevery burden, every crown.
