lord help us love people enough around us to pray for them and to tell them the truth sinners and backsliders will be lost forever to love the world is to be an enemy of god to love the lust of the world and the things that are in the world we have got to break up with the world you guys and let jesus be number one amen i've said it many times but i'll say it again when you break up with the devil you give him back his stuff amen jesus is not going to have cheaters amen he's looking for a bride without spot or blemish and you are either part of the bride or you're part of the adulteress can't be in both camps at the same time amen praise god you may be seated this morning glory praise the lord i tell you what i feel the spirit of the lord here this morning amen i didn't plan on turning to this scripture you can go ahead and put the first slide up but i want you to everybody to turn first to jeremiah jeremiah chapter 32 and there's a reason i want to say this because uh jeremiah says something here this for somebody this morning that you need to understand and just so you know the context of this in jeremiah 31 the prophet gets this revelation from god that he is going to have a new covenant and that he's going to make a new covenant with the house of israel so this is about the new covenant that we live under that he's talking about in 31 and 32. but in jeremiah 32 he says something about the fear of the lord and i want to say this this morning about the fear of god i want you to know that it's possible for you to both fear god and love god at the same time amen my children know that daddy loves them they know i love them and they love me but they also know daddy will not put up with any foolishness amen even the one and a half year old knows already that daddy will spank and that fits aren't good we know amen and she knows
it's not pleasant but i compare that only because we understand that a little bit but the fear of god the respect of god that we should have needs to go much further but here's what god said about his fear about fearing the lord in jeremiah 32 let's read down go down to verse 38 he says and they shall be my people and i will give and i will be their god rather and i will give them one heart and one way that they may fear me forever for the good of them and of their children after them and i will make an everlasting covenant with them that i will not turn away from them to do them good but i will put my fear in their hearts that they shall not depart from me let me just say this if you have cast aside the fear of god and are living any way you think you want to live you are in great danger because i can turn all the way over to the book of revelation turn over to the book of revelation real quick that's where we're going to spend most of our time but that's if if you think well that's old testament pastor all the way over to the book of revelation chapter 14. the end of the book god's judgments are falling upon the earth we're going to talk about that this morning god's terrible wrath and judgments are falling upon wicked sinners and i'm going to tell you it's coming folks actually it's already been happening but it's going to come worse something we don't have any concept does god love the lost does he love the unsaved and the wicked and those rebelling against him yes he loved them enough to send his own son to die on the cross for their sins and to be raised from the dead but if you reject that and continue to live the way you want to live you will be the object of his wrath that is the fact and preachers do not preach it anymore but all the way over in the book of revelation when god's judgments i mean when millions are dying under the judgment and wrath of god and yes i said the judgment and wrath of god an angel flies in heaven look at chapter 14 and this is the message of the angel he says he has the everlasting gospel to preach are you there verse 6 and i saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven having the everlasting gospel to preach to them that dwell on the earth and to every nation and kindred and tongue and people saying with a loud voice fear god and give glory to him
for the hour of his judgment is come and worship him that made the heavens and the earth and the sea and the fountains of waters and there followed another angel saying babylon has fallen is fallen that great city because she has made all nations to drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication and then he goes on to talk about the angel that followed to bring a curse upon those who take the mark of the beast in the last three and a half years but i wanted you to see that the everlasting gospel says fear god worship him give him glory and i want to tell you the man or the woman that truly fears god will depart from evil i'm going to give you a verse just write this one down if you don't believe that statement proverbs 16 verse 6 by the fear of the lord men depart from evil it's not by good goose bump feelings whether people like it or not christian people like it or not or the world likes it or not god is in charge he is the king what he says goes and the way he says it's going to be that's the way he says it's going to be and if you want to be a rebel then you paddled your own canoe into god's judgment there's been old saying preachers you say if anybody goes to hell they paddled their own canoe there because god in his love and mercy has been doing everything to keep us from there you got to be pretty stubborn to keep going down a road of loving the world amen this is the message what i'm telling you right now is the message of the book of revelation and that's what we're going to look at this morning i'm going to help you understand the book of revelation probably like you've never understood it because some of the traditional teachings we've been taught about this book are wrong they don't make sense they don't jive with the scriptures or what's going on in history but we need to look at it and i'm going to show you this morning beyond any shadow of a doubt that we are over halfway through the seals we are already into the third trumpet pat and waiting moving quickly to the fourth the judgments of god have been in the earth especially in the 20th century and what's coming is far worse than anything we've seen yet you think the earthquake in the japanese tsunami was bad or the 2004 tsunami you think those things were bad what is coming is going to make those things pale in comparison and god is looking he the bible says when god's judgments are in the earth
people learn righteousness he will do what is necessary to get you to turn and if you won't turn then it's on you amen let's go back to revelation chapter one this morning i want to break it down i'm going to give you just a quick overview of revelation let's go to the number two here a lot of symbolism in revelation but let me break it down a lot of people stay away from the book of revelation because they say oh it's got all these things in it that i can't understand you know the bearer and the and the lion with the eagles wings and the woman clothed with the sun and the moon at her feet and the dragon and all this stuff and they go uh stay away from the book of revelation but the book of revelation is not just full of symbolism matter of fact god put just enough in there to keep people away people that really didn't want him to keep them away because the book of revelation actually breaks down like this and i'm gonna break it down real quick for you chapter one is an introduction we're going to read some of that in a second it's just an introduction john's telling you what's going on but the book of revelation did you know this is the only book in the bible that promises a blessing to those who read it and understand it and as a matter of fact john said that this book even daniel when daniel wrote daniel god said seal the book so that it basically it won't be understood till the time of the end but 700 800 years later when john wrote the book of revelation god said don't seal that up because the time is at hand see the last days began when jesus died on that cross and rose from the dead that's why paul said in the first century about the antichrist spirit he said the mystery of iniquity is already working so john goes up to heaven and sees this this vision and sees these things unfold in heaven they really happened he saw both things that were happening and that would happen okay but the book here first chapter one is an introduction then god gives a prophetic word to john for seven churches in asia i i've had there recently there was a very well known popular ministry in america i'm talking about known nationally internationally ministry that said prophecy or the the prophetic ministry was not about being focused on the sins of the world i said my god what book are they reading have they read revelation have they read the new testament it's all god's focusing on through the whole thing and god focuses on dealing with the church first and that's why he deals with the there were problems big problems sin and false teaching and false prophets and all these things going on lukewarmness and sexual immorality and all these things going on in these churches and jesus pinpoints them and corrects them and says you better repent you better get this stuff out of your life or else i'm going to do this and some of the judgments where i'm going to spit you out of my mouth i'm going to kill
your children with death and we don't like to think of jesus in those terms but let me just explain something to you he's not just the lamb of god who died on the cross he is going to be and he is and will fulfill the lion of the tribe of judah and will destroy his enemies this is just hard for us to grasp sometimes because everybody wants to talk about god as this lovey-dovey papa who's not going to even spank you no he's going to send rebels and wicked sinners who won't repent they will be lost forever in the lake of fire and the book of revelation talks a lot about that lake of fire and about it being everlasting and the smoke of their torment going up forever and ever and ever he talks about those who take the mark of the beast will never find forgiveness that is one of the unforgivable unpardonable sins besides blaspheming the holy spirit so you got that that's chapter 2 and 3 chapter four and five are basically john gets caught up to heaven at first he sees jesus appear to him in chapter one then he's chapter he gets this message about the churches then in chapter four he's caught up to heaven and he sees what's going on in heaven and it's in chapter four and five where he sees this scroll given and and and then it goes from chapter six from chapter six to chapter nineteen is about the seals and the trumpets and the bowls of wrath now let me say this chapter 6 through 18 within that you've got what's called parenthetical chapters what's a parent what's a what's something you put in parentheses what is that about it's a like a pause in the middle of a sentence to clarify something so chapter 12 and 13 and even chapter part of chapter 14 there are pauses where god's clarified chapter seven is a pause where he seals the hundred forty-four that's a pause for a minute and sometimes we try to read it all the way through and we're like we don't understand that it's kind of broken up in these different sections but chapter 19 is the battle of armageddon that's the end that's jesus all the armies of the world gathering against israel in jerusalem or around jerusalem and the megiddo valley and jesus coming back on a white horse and killing every one of them and setting up his kingdom on the earth and 20 is about the judgment of the nations the thousand-year millennial reign but i i i want to go let's just go to the next one here so it is full of symbolism but it's symbolism the symbolism even in it can be understood and i want you to just make a note of this right here that symbolism in the book of revelation matches real events ideologies religions and nations in our world today and i'm gonna prove it to you this morning amen
let's go to the next one the line of the tribe of judah let's go to revelation what did i say this chapter one let's back up real quick are y'all with me all right you know what i am i'm actually going to skip over that i've already talked about the line of the tribe of judah john sees in chapter 5 this book that no one can open and it's a scroll and it's written on the outside and the inside and it says it's sealed with seven seals and john begins to cry and says there's you know no man can open these seals and then it says the lamb or the lion of the tribe of judah has prevailed to open the seals now we're going to look at the seals let's let's keep going here i'm going to give you a quick overview so you understand the seals here there's seven seals you've got first the four horsemen they're the first four seals many of you have heard of those the white horse the red horse the black horse and the pale slash green horse we'll explain that in a minute because it's not in the greek it's not pale it's green actually and then you have the fifth seal as martyrs the sixth seal is an earthquake in the sun going dark and then you have this the parenthetical the paul's the ceiling of the 144 000 the seventh trumpet is just 30 minutes of silence now those seals take us now this is this is something where i'm gonna break down some of your tear down some of your traditional teaching the traditional teaching we've been taught is that the tribulation or the 70th week of daniel is seven years that part is true but what they have taught us many prophecy teachers have taught us is that the all the seals and the trumpets and the bowl all happen in the seven year period not true okay the seals look at it this way the seals are the long story that take us to the battle of armageddon the trumpets are the shorter story that still end at armageddon and then the viles of wrath are the shorter story ending at the battle of armageddon they overlap amen it's kind of like this and just to tell you the truth we've already gotten here going to prove that the trumpets overlap one two and three about here threes already happen and then we know that the vials of wrath don't happen until the antichrist kingdom is fully set up because it tells one of those vials are poured out as darkness on the antichrist kingdom so we know but they overlap now i can prove this real easily because if you'll notice in revelation 5 it says jesus was standing there
john was seeing something going on right then and what did he see jesus opened the seals opened opened not he's going to open he opened the seals see i believe that the four horsemen were released in a.d 96 which is why paul because we know that the white horse represents the spirit of deception in the spirit of the antichrist spirit prove that in a minute we know paul i mean first john chapter 2 verse 18 says that the antichrist spirit paul i mean john said was already in the earth war the red horse was war we'll talk about that more specifically the black horse of course famine and then the green horse we'll see in a second but they have grown and come to their they started out small and now they have grown to their full maturity of where the bible said they were going to grow to so let's look at these seals let's go to the next let's show the next one these are the seven trumpets these are in revelation eight and nine the first trumpet um talks about the grass being burned up hail and fire mingled with smoke we'll talk about that in a second the second one talks about a mountain of fire and a third of the ships being destroyed i mean the second the third talks about wormwood and the waters being made bitter and people dying because of the waters this one is the fourth seal's darkness the sun stars and moon being smitten for a third part of the day and then there's the three woes there's this some some kind of locust this may be an actual plague of some type of demon locus or it may represent warfare but we know by these two by this one here that this is armageddon and then because number seven says the mystery of god is finished at the trumpets see this is why i could say the seals end at armageddon the trumpets end at armageddon the vials end at armageddon okay i'll show you let's look at the vials real quick or bowls of wrath and this is i'm not going to go through all of them i can't even hardly see that myself but darkness on the beast and the sea turning blood and these are these are the most vicious here the euphrates and the kings of the east number six you see that right there number six the euphrates has dried up for the kings of the east with their army of 200 million to march into jerusalem into israel anyway that's just a kind of a basic breakdown but you're not going to fully understand what i'm saying if you don't understand they overlap okay it's not one following the other following the other it is the seals follow each other and they follow each other that way but they overlap one another example the fourth seal is happening right now okay
but we're waiting on the fourth trumpet the first three trumpets already happened all right i'll show you all right let's go first four seals of the four horsemen i said that that they were released let's keep going now let's turn turn to revelation chapter six let's look at these four horsemen i'll prove to you that the seals have opened and we're going to look at particularly two of them i did a message a few weeks back on is the antichrist being revealed so i covered the antichrist pretty thoroughly i'm absolutely convinced he is among us and that we are very close um but let's look the white horse the spirit of deception the antichrist uh we know that already we'll deal with that in a minute matter of fact did you know that every false religion just about in the world buddhism hinduism um islam all of them believe that their messiah that's coming will come on a white horse or some symbol of that they believe that kalki the hindus believe kalki will come riding on a white horse the red horse and it interesting the red horse communism let's keep going let's go past this one there's the white horse that's actually a picture a hindu picture of their kalki riding a white horse carrying a bow with a crown on its head just like revelation 6 says keep going the red horse has a great sword in his hand keep going the red horse in it interesting that god chose red right the red horse i believe is communism communist revolution the bolshevik revolution started in in russia in 1917 since then just mao in china is guilty of about 70 million deaths about the same in russia and this is of course us marx stalin and um i mean lenin and um mao these are the flags actually here's the flag of the former soviet union and it's red north vietnam north korea and um china so the red horse i think god knows exactly what he's talking about as a matter of fact after world war ii we went from about six percent communist to almost 50 percent communist in the world the red army was taking over the wars that we fought trying to stop the spread of communism the korean war the vietnam war wars down in south america guerrilla warfare we fought a lot of wars even in afghanistan trying to stop the spread of this red horse you're going to see something that's interesting let me say this about the red horse this is why communism you don't know why communism is making a revival again russia will go back to being full communist but the government that's coming the beast kingdom
it's gonna it's interesting that it starts out in revelation 13 is this lion and this leopard and this bear and this all these different nations that come together the one world government but at the end in revelation 17 when he says i saw a beast come up out of the sea seven heads ten heart the same beast he said but now it's red because it's gonna be communist dictator see the antichrist will be the final world ruler okay so we know what the white horse is we know what the red horse is let's go to the next one of course the black horse it says that he has a pair of balances in his hand let's matter of fact let's just read this real quick here in revelation chapter six and listen oh let me say this about the uh about the red horse it says a great sword was given to the red horse you know what that means what was common in almost all of those nations with those red flags nuclear weapons and let me just say this nuclear weapons will soon be released on the world again real soon goodness i'm hung up here all right y'all are real quiet this morning let's just start reading at verse one and i saw when the lamb opened one of the seals and i heard as it were the noise of thunder and one of the four be saying come and see and i saw him behold a white horse and he that sat on him had a bow and a crown was given unto him and he went forth conquering and to conquer now we know these are spirits because let me say this real quick zechariah 6 just make a note of this i'm not turning there zechariah had a similar vision where he saw red horses and black horses and white horses and these off-color horses and he saw almost the same vision except they were pulling chariots and he asked the angel what are these and he said these are spirits gone forth into the earth so these are spirits so then he says when he had opened verse three when he had opened the second seal i heard the second beast say come and see and they went out another horse and it was red and power was given unto him there on to take peace from the earth that they should kill one another and there was a great and there was given unto him a great sword let me say this communists kill their own people the communist revolution the chinese revolution they killed millions of their own people to to establish communism so it says to kill one another with a sword and communism is responsible for taking peace from the earth in the last what 60 years so we know that the white horse has been writing because john said the spirit of antichrist is with us we know that the red horse has been riding so i believe it's communism the black horse is interesting i believe the black horse represents more than just famine or economic upheaval but even it may even represent capitalism and even though capitalism is the best system free market system that we've seen in the world it's not perfect and it is beginning to collapse but this one also represents famine
economic upheaval and let's just read what it says about this and he says and when he had opened the third seal verse five i heard the third beast say come and see and i beheld a low a black horse and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand and i heard a voice in the midst of the four be say a measure of wheat for a penny and three measures of barley for a penny and see that you hurt not the oil or the wine now he has a pair of balances on his hand what's interesting is he mentions wheat here and it getting to the point where it cost a day's wages four weeks now in many parts of the world and right now africa is in a new famine all right we've had some terrible famines in africa but we're in a new famine now but the problem is we got something the bible said something about wheat becoming so expensive that it takes it's going to cost a day's wages guess what in 1999 they discovered something called ug-99 okay in uganda it's a stem rust it's a fungus that destroys wheat it destroyed kenya's wheat crop in one year it's airborne and it spreads quickly and scientists across the world have been moving quickly to try to develop a genetically modified wheat seed that will fight this thing they finally developed one that would fight this ug99 stem rust but guess what happened all of a sudden five new strains of ug99 new mutations came forth and they predict that within the next five years that the world's wheat crop will be in a grave danger it is one of the most critical um serious problems that you haven't heard about and it will get to the point where wheat and wheat is in a lot of things we eat well wheat will be so expensive and that will produce even more what economic upheaval and famine and pestilence let's keep going and i said that already the fourth seal let's read this this one's gonna get you here the fourth seal and this is how we know we're already there the fourth seal lets us know for sure that these things have been writing for some time verse 8 oh verse 7 and when he had opened the fourth seal i heard the voice of the fourth beast say come and see and i looked and behold a pale horse and his name that sat on him was death and hell followed with him and power was given over them to over one-fourth of the earth to kill with the sword and with hunger and with death and with the beast of the earth now let's stop right here the word pale let's go to the next thing the word pale in the greek go to the next one is cloros it is means and this is straight from the
strong's greek dictionary it means greenish verdant done colored green pale so the color of this horse is green do you know why that is significant go to the next one the sacred color of islam is green they believe that their that color is sacred to them because they believe that muhammad wore a green turban and a green cape that's why you see this this is the flag of saudi arabia notice it's green with a sword on it i'll explain that in a second when uh of course this is a suicide bomber these are mosques these are hamas soldiers and when they're most holy men of islam they call sufis that are into deep into satanic meditation when they die their their coffins always have to be shrouded in green um you'll always see this but anyway green is the sacred color of islam and also the law of muslims is called sharia law and how is that law executed by the sword they cut people's hands off they cut people's heads off right now let's look at something else the world population right now is 6.9 billion muslims are 1.66 billion it said there that they had power or authority over one-fourth of the earth guess what 1.66 is almost exactly one-fourth of 6.9 billion here's another interesting fact it says to kill with the sword okay because here's what's coming we're not there yet they will do that but to kill with the sword it says and with hunger and with the beast of the earth now let me explain those for you saudi arabia is one of the richest countries in the world libya full of oil saudi arabia full of oil iraq iran full of oil why are there people starving some of the richest countries on the face of the earth and yet they don't care about their own people they let them starve to death most people suffering famine are aware north africa middle east but yet they're trying to convert everybody to muslims listen i've been to nigeria twice and preached in nigeria and people died christians were murdered while i was there thousands by muslims them trying to to make the country muslim because nigeria has oil and if nigeria could find some some godly men and women to lead that country they could be the they could be the you know
just a blessed rich nation but because of muslims and because of this this murderous spirit but notice it says with the beast of the earth beasts in the book of revelation represent nations so what paul was saying is that this green horse would create nations that he would use to kill iran and syria and lebanon are going to attack israel and the bible tells us very clearly that israel will nuke them isaiah 17 and ezekiel 38 and 39 almost all of those nations will be destroyed in the war that's coming and that's not armagedd that's just the beginning okay so if the bible tells me that this green horse when he reached his full maturity would have authority over one-fourth of the earth that's where we are the green horse is fulfilled you know we're waiting for the green horse to attack israel when the green horse attacks israel israel will nuke them and that will move us into the last few years of mankind as we know it let's keep going the fifth seal he says i saw unto the altar the souls of them that were slain let's read that and see i think it's interesting that muslims are the ones that are going to force us into the next world war in the next nuclear war and it says that there the writer on their horse was death the horse they're writing islam is green but the one writing on its death and millions are going to go to hell that die in these horrible wars god's very specific isn't he one-fourth look what he says the fifth seal and when i at verse nine and when he had opened the fifth seal i saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of god and for the testimony which they held and they cried with a loud voice saying how long lord holy and true does thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell upon the earth and he said and white robes were given unto every one of them and it was said unto them that they should rest for a little season until their fellow servants and also of their brethren should be killed as they would were fulfilled so there has been persecution since the church was born there's been seasons of great persecution by nero and then later by the roman catholic church but the next one he's telling us these are the martyrs are saying when are you going to avenge our blood on the earth and the lord says there's more that's going to be killed revelation 13 says when when the antichrist steps in and has full power and he has 42 months to continue it says
that then he will issue a mark and everyone who will not worship him and swear allegiance to him and take his mark if you if you reject that that the antichrist would kill you there is a coming martyrdom and persecution that's going to happen on this world beyond anything that's happened and that's what god was telling them right there yes there's been martyrs but you've got to wait because there's more and jesus said it in matthew 24 that there would be great tribulation coming now there are people who believe and i'm just going to say this briefly there are people who believe that the rapture of the church takes place before any of this happens i do not believe that is bible at all if you want to check me out there's a cd back there on the rapture i don't have time to get into that i believe we're here through almost all of it and that no man will know the day or the hour but we do know that from second thessalonians chapter two because thessaloni second thessalonians two tells us when he said he said don't let anybody shake you about the coming of the lord and our gathering together to him he said that day won't come unless two things happen he said a falling away comes a great apostasy people turning away from the faith and boy are we there and he said and the man of sin be revealed and i believe he's already been revealed and when he steps into the rebuilt temple and we know there's 42 months left paul plainly taught the rapture of the church will not happen until after some time after this i don't know again something we've been taught wrong for many years and you know what if i'm wrong guess what hooray if they're wrong oh my god we need to prepare ourselves spiritually emotionally in every way for what's coming now let's keep going i'm not going to read this the sixth seal sun goes dark moon doesn't give off at light great earthquake seventh seal silence now i want to jump real quick to the third trumpet turn to revelation chapter eight i'm gonna prove to you that the trumpets three of them i know have already sounded this is something that i had never heard until this week and i have to give credit where credit is due there's a prophecy teacher on television his name is irvin baxter and it's rare that i have somebody blow my mind but he blew my mind and i believe what he's saying is true i checked it out and researched it for myself after he said it and i found it to be exactly true i'll share that in a minute but let's look and see now the reason i'm jumping to the third trumpet is because if we prove that the third trumpet's already happened then we know that the second and third trumpet is easy to work backwards this one is going to blow your minds i'm telling you
it's going to blow your minds all right and this is what god said now remember this is vision this was a vision john was seeing that mean it was veiled in mystery and we really wouldn't understand it until it happened okay but it's going to be made clear to you and he says and the third angel sounded and there fell a great star from heaven burning as it were a lamp and it fell upon the third part of the rivers and upon the fountains of waters and the name of the star is called wormwood and the third part of the waters became wormwood and many men died because of the waters because they were made bitter revelation 8 10 through 11. all right let's go to the next one here the third trumpet sounded on on august 26th i'm sorry i got that wrong it's april 26th i put the wrong month in there it was late last night april 26 1986. say pastor dean how in the world do you know that let's go to the next one this is the date of the worst nuclear power plant disaster in history it was the chernobyl plant in propiet ukraine it is said and i'm going to show you it's going to blow your mind it is said that up to over a million people have died from the radiation the radiation released and we can go to the next one the radiation released up back up that's good hold on the radiation release was 400 times that of the hiroshima bomb 400 times the radiation went into all the way to england sweden got into the main waterway of europe cesium-137 and you know what cesium-137 the radioactive isotope that goes down into your bone marrow when you get it has a 30-year half-life meaning it can take up to 30 years before it causes cancer so more people are going to die how do we know that this for sure let's go to the next one how do we know for sure well the english word wormwood is the word chernobyl or chore noble and ukrainian where this happened in fact the disaster is known locally as the chord noble catastrophe i went to an online ukrainian dictionary to check this where you can type in the english word and it tells you [Music] the ukrainian word i typed in wormwood guess what came back chernobyl so if you had a ukrainian bible
this is what it would say at that point it would say and i saw a star fall from heaven named chernobyl and the waters were made bitter by chernobyl and many men died because of the waters as a matter of fact it's a it's a fact that it got into the main river system it got in and killed animals and mutated animals for for thousands of miles they the the trucks and the fire trucks and and the bulldozers that came to clean this up or try to fight the fire that was there they just had to bury them they were so penetrated by radioactive material this does this not blow your mind this was the worst nuclear accident in history probably somewhere around 1.5 million people affected died you think this wouldn't be in the bible and yet god said 2 000 years ago if god was speaking ukrainian and guess what he made all the languages he would have said this star's name guys i'm going to give you a little hint it's renewable but how many people speak ukrainian so if the third trumpet blew in 1986 the second trumpet had happened before that right let's go to it going wrong direction that whoa stop right there go back one that's the that's the radius of the the radioactive look at that it's almost all of europe let's go to the next one so if the third trumpet was chernobyl then the second trumpet had to sound before 1986. what was that go to the next one the second trumpet mentioned several things a mountain of fire one third of the ships destroyed one-third of the sea becoming blood one-third of the living creatures in the sea dying let's read it revelation eight look at verse uh verse eight and the second angel sounded and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea and the third part of the sea became blood and the third part of the creatures which were in the sea and had the life died and the third part of the ships were destroyed what event could have taken place before 1986 when there was a mountain of fire and a third part of ships destroyed let's look at it and world war ii
took place from 1939 to 1945. let's go to the next one there were 105 [Music] 127 ships involved the numerous navies of world war ii let's go to the next one 36 387 were destroyed that comes out to 3.34 and everyone knows one-third is .33 you say well what was the burning mountain that was cast into the sea remember john's seeing a vision visions have to be interpreted the first nuclear bomb or atomic bomb exploding on a little tiny island in the middle of the pacific ocean so to john it looked like a mountain of fire in the sea i don't know about y'all it gives me chills you think that the the advent the first use the most powerful weapon mankind's ever known that god wouldn't mention it in the bible and let me say this about war if you go back and i preached this last week on a message on the keys of revival but everybody knows the verse second chronicles 7 14 you know if we humble ourselves and pray and seek his face and turn from our wicked ways he will hear from heaven forgive our sin and heal our land right before that god said the verse before that he said if i if my people basically turn away from me if i send the pestilence or the sword god sends war or allows war as judgments on mankind you can read it throughout the old testament when his people turned against him he let their enemies come against them what had happened in america in the 1920s and 30s america had gotten sinful i mean that was back when you know capone and the bootlegging and the parties and i mean people were partying back then back then they put you know they put cocaine and coke you know they they were heroin addicts i mean it was we our country went through a time it turned against god guess what happened the japanese navy almost sunk our entire fleet at pearl harbor our enemies came against us it was the mercy of god that we won that war there were several close calls that if we hadn't got there before somebody or just barely that hitler would have won he was about to have this can you imagine hitler having that he was this close we captured his scientists war is a judgment though the trumpets are judgment
now so what would have happened before 1939 in 1940 what would have been the first trumpet oh by the way world war ii guess how many people died 52 million 52 million people so what happened before world war two come on everybody knows world war one right the 20th century kicked off with two world wars how do we know the only hint we get and i think that the first trumpet may be more than just world war one but the wars of the 17th 18th century leading up to world war one but there was something let's read it chapter eight verse six real quick and the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound and the first angel sounded sound sounded and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood and they were cast upon the earth and a third part of the trees were burned up in all the green grass now what's interesting is i've what's thrown me off is singing you know all the green grass burn up but then over if you look over it can't be all is in every blade of grass on the face of the earth because the fifth trumpet if you look over in chapter nine there's a command over the fifth trumpet that they should not hurt the grass of the earth so what is this talking about one third of the grass and one one third of the or the and the trees burn up what's that talking about where the war was going on and in world war one and in the previous wars leading up to that napoleon and some of the others they had a policy it was called the scorched earth policy you ever heard of that that means if you took land you pushed your enemy back you burn up everything the trees the grass the the buildings the crops you burn it slap up so in case they fought you won you back you pushed you back they didn't have anything left now we abandoned that policy which is why i think it's interesting that the angel says that the fifth trumpet says don't hurt the grass boy are we in a time of uh you know don't hurt the grass don't hurt the trees right kill everybody but don't hurt the grass in the trees right all right now the fourth trumpet the reason i don't know that we're i don't think we're there yet but i think i know when it may happen oh how do you know that this is a guess because we don't know these things happen but this is a guess the fourth trumpet the next one is to sound it says that the sun is smitten and the stars in the moon for a third part of the day now there's only several things that can do that eclipses
exactly massive volcanic eruptions several volcanoes erupting or a nuclear war i think we may have all of the above and let me explain something unusual is going to happen in the year 2014 to 2015. that hasn't happened except three four other times jesus said they'll be signed and the sons in the moonlight stars in luke 21. he said that that before the great and terrible day of the lord before it gets real bad and let me tell you something the trumpets that follow number four are so bad that god calls them three woes whoa whoa whoa if you think these trumpets were bad the the last three are going to be bad and there's something that signals the last three the sun going dark the moon not giving off its light do you know what that is the jewish calendar year 2014 starting september the jewish year starts in september 2014 to 2015 there's going to be four solar eclipses in one year here's what's interesting four eclipses in four different months and how many months are in a year what is four one third i just find it interesting may not work out that way but there's going to be four lunar eclipses and two solar eclipses i'm sorry four lunar two solar in that time period that we know of nasa this is from nasa guess what though what makes them significant all four lunar eclipses are on jewish feast days you know when that happened last time 1948 1949 when israel became a nation and they were attacked by all the arab states do you know when it happened again 1967 when israel was attacked again by the arab nations and they took jerusalem in the six day war you know when it happened before that we've got to go all the way back to 1492 and 93 when all the jews were run out of spain being persecuted we are really there folks amen now remember i want to say this that's the fourth trumpet the fifth trumpet he talks about the locust which may be military machines but i can say this the trumpets that follow our war the world war the ezekiel 38 39 gog magog war when
persia libya ethiopia all those nations mentioned come against israel and israel nukes them it's in your bible i promise she says their tongues will consume in their mouths their eyeballs and their sockets okay now here's the disturbing thing and this is where we're going to end today go with me revelation 9 and you can read these for yourself and we know you know let's back up though in nine and he says the six angel sounded let's let's just read it he said the six angel sounded i heard a voice of the four horns of the golden altar which is before god saying to the six angel that had the trouble loose the four angels which are bound in the great river euphrates and the four angels were loosed and prepared were prepared now listen to this for an hour a day a month and a year to slay the third part of men the gog magog war the nuclear war in the middle east the war i believe that we're going to have with china if it's 6.9 billion people right now and one-third are killed how many is that over two billion people are gonna die at the sixth trumpet blast folks we're headed to the end i hate to be so gloomy but i didn't write the book but god did call me to teach and preach the book and what kind of preacher would i be and this is something god started dealing with me again about three years ago and he was like son don't be a preacher living at the very end of time and not dare preach on it and i said yes sir that's why i stepped it up a notch and obeying the lord but he goes on down and talks about the army verse 16 being 200 million guess what the only army in the world that can put that number together china matter of fact they have a draftable number of 800 million they can draft an army of 200 million is cake for them a cakewalk china will see us weak when our economy collapses when there's war in the middle east china will see it their opportunity to move against us i believe we will have to nuke them to survive because we cannot fight a conventional war with china americans think we're the best things that sliced bread we cannot fight a conventional war
against 200 million soldiers we only got about 300 million people in our country okay anyway i don't mean to be so pessimistic but these things are coming down here's here's the key here's here's my clothes here let's read on down these terrible things are happening i've shown you the first three trumpets i've shown you the seals we're into those and god says this verse 20 9 20. this is what breaks my heart and this is why i had to preach this today and this is why if you hadn't listened to anything that i've said thus far you need to listen to me right now this is what god said and the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues repented not of their works of the works of their hands that they should not worship devils and idols and gold of silver of brass and stone and of wood which can neither see nor hear nor talk neither repented they of their murders their sorceries nor their fornication nor of their thefts what is god saying you the cry of god's heart here is i am showing my judgments in the earth i am showing that my bible is true i am showing that i am going to judge the wicked and the sinners and the rebels i am showing that i am coming back and yet people who people are out there and you've heard them oh yeah i believe it's the end time oh yeah i believe jesus is coming but they're still sleeping around with their boyfriend and girlfriend they're still drinking and getting drunk they're still going to the parties in the clubs they still aren't repenting and the word repentance means that you confess the sin and you quit the sin and god that's what god wants there is no salvation outside of true repentance you're not going to smoke dope and walk into heaven i'm sorry you're not going to be a thief or a violent person or a fornicator and the word fornication here is the greek word pornia sound familiar it encompasses all sexual immorality from homosexuality to incense to to pornography to pre-marital sex every bit of it so many people and i'm just going to say this so many people are going to go into hell because they can't keep their pants zipped or their panties on god said no fornicator no unclean person who is an idolater no adulterer has any impart in the kingdom of heaven or of god don't let any man deceive you ephesians 5 first corinthians 5 galatians 5 it's all over the bible and yet preachers are
like oh god loves you just say this little prayer sign this card you're in no the time has come to break free listen to me and i'm gonna tell you everyone's tempted and everyone's attacked in their mind and their heart and satan is gonna try to pull you and your flesh is gonna try to pull you but here's the thing you will either overcome sin or it will overcome you don't tell me you can't quit drugs i did jesus i came to jesus i quit doing drugs don't tell me you can't quit drinking because i used to drink more than anybody i promise you and when i came to jesus i knew i couldn't be a drunkard and a christian i couldn't be a weekend party or in a christian i put the marijuana down i put the cocaine down i put the alcohol down why because i knew that's what repentance meant turn from your sin and follow jesus i quit sleeping around i quit the porn i quit living with my girlfriend you understand that's christianity folks you hear anything otherwise it's foolishness and lies and will damn your soul for an eternity read the book now let me tell you something else good that happened see that's the bad side and tell you good side when you go all the way with jesus when you cut off the world and you really get in prayer and you really get in the word and you really begin to know him and you're truly born again and changed and you encounter the presence of god and the power of god ain't no sex drugs rock and roll that that can compare and let me just say this it's not worth hell folks it's not worth hell hell's forever in spite of what some preachers are saying now it's forever and ever and ever and ever so i'm going to say this my heart today it break think about this i've shown you three of the judgments of god just three world war one world war two chernobyl and yet people are still living like there ain't no tomorrow they're living like they're in any
judgment day they're living like god's okay with it all man we got homosexual christian musicians really no no they repent i'm gonna read that again is it y'all y'all see it everybody see it even though these terrible things that were happening it says they repented not of the works of their hand that they should not worship devils hinduism buddhism shintoism neither the works of their own hands neither they repented of their murderers nor of their sorceries nor of their fornication i mean can you hear god going i'm even bringing down the wrath and they won't change i brought the love through jesus on the in the cross they didn't change now i'm bringing down the pain and they still won't change can you understand why he's angry and he's doing it gradually but what's coming folks jesus said it would be like birth pains on a woman what happens with birth pains ladies don't they start coming faster and more intense don't they they speed up right i'm here to tell you today as a man of god things are about to speed up and when you see this in the middle east there's not much time left but then here's the other issue you might not live to see this your judgment day might be tomorrow it's wonderful to know the signs but that doesn't mean anything if you don't do something about it that's everybody stand jesus jesus everybody bow your head close your eyes with me for a minute father in heaven i come to you today lord with a heavy heart lord this is your book these are your judgments and they are righteous and they are true
lord i come to you in the name of jesus and i thank you that you made a way but it's one way you gave us one way and that is through repentance and faith in the shed blood of jesus and walking in a relationship that's obedient and walking in holiness and lord i just pray today in jesus name that if there's anyone in this room that you have and then they're not ready that you've shaken them today a bit and that you've made it clear that you love them but that they must run to you to escape the wrath to come so father it's in jesus name i ask you to convict now this morning if you're not right with god there's sin in your life and you know you're not right with god
