this is the I bre ReliOn or some Creed We Believe with us Lord where we feel your touch and hear your voice and walk with you and live a life led by the Holy Spirit obedient to your written word and to what you speak to us to do what you lead us to do even the difficult things you lead us to do we must be obedient Lord we praise you this morning we give you glory you are the king of kings and the Lord of lords the God of all gods the only one who came in the flesh and died on the cross for our sins the only true God our savior the Messiah the Healer the deliverer the only one that can wash away sins the only one that can give eternal life we exalt you today Lord Jesus and it's your name we pray amen amen you may be seated this morning and to welcome everyone here at fire and grace church this morning those watching and listening all over the world I think we have people from Ohio today in Texas and uh Georgia and Florida if I miss any let me know what's that Kentucky U all right ky's in the house all right of course our Pennsylvania people um you know I was thinking about that song uh that song that last song that we did breed there I was just thinking about we were singing that back there 24 years ago August so exactly 24 years ago I was on the island of macius out in the middle of the Indian Ocean preaching the gospel to a bunch of Hindus and Muslims and even lukewarm Christians so you know I was thinking about that and I was thinking about how important it is and I cannot stress this enough I wouldn't have that memory I wouldn't have seen that great move of God because I was preaching there for two weeks and it was just powerful the Holy Spirit was just moving I remember four Hindu ladies came to the first meeting the first night that I preached there and uh I you know had to have a translator cuz they even though I took three years of French I didn't remember much so they speak French there so I had a translator and um these four ladies came up and I went down to pray for them at the altar call and they all fell and hit the floor into the power of God well later on you know that church meeting there's probably 300 people there something like that in this little this little church on this little island packed out and I remember asking the pastor later I said oh I just thought they were Christians you know just came up and God touched them he goes goes oh no he goes those were Hindu women he
said the power of Jesus hit them and they hit the floor and they got up and gave their lives to to Jesus but I couldn't understand any of that because they were talking in their and it's actually kind of a broken French Creole type thing but it was um it was an amazing trip but I bring all that up to say it is important this is why it's so important to obey the leading of the holy spirit in your life because if you don't you're not going to have these stories to tell and I also think about it makes me think about 24 years that was 24 years ago I mean we got people in here that's not 24 years old and how time flies and how we must as Christians we should be making the most out of our lives out of our walk with God because we only have one life and we only have so much time and there's people around us who need us to be what God has called us to be Amen period and they need us to be bold about it and be a light and not be ashamed or afraid and we certainly don't want to be the servant that hides his talent because he was afraid you see you'll either fear God and do what he wants you to do you'll fear man and hide and that's that's what we're going to do we're going to give an account of that on Judgment Day now I'm going to answer a question today for some of you you ought to know this by heart you in fact when I get into this you ought to be able to go to the scripture especially our fire and Grace Ministry School graduates and current students you ought to be able to go to these scriptures before I even go there but I want to put up a question this a question was asked last week on Facebook during our service and it's a good question nothing wrong with it because sometimes when I'm preaching I just mention certain things because I'm preaching on a certain subject so I may just mention something and I fly on by and uh because I can't deal with everything every Sunday but this is a good I think a good time to deal with this but Dena here ask it's a good question there's the white Throne judgment and the judgment seat so she knows there's two judgments let me just go ahead and establish this fact and I'm going to show you in the word of God there's only two judgments in the end okay the Judgment seat of Christ is at the second coming of Jesus all right and the Judgment seat of Christ is where Christians will be judged and let me just go on ahead and say right now I'm going to establish this biblically but at that judgment seat not all Christian Christians will be entering in to Heaven into the
kingdom of God at that point some will be cast out I'll show you that in a second then 1,000 years later after the millennial reign of Jesus then there's the great white Throne judgment now at that judgment that is all the wicked dead there is not one Christian among that group these are people who were never born again never came to know the Lord re rejected him went their own way lived in sin they died in their sins they went to hell and actually hell is kind of like um I I use it like this hell's like the county jail and the Lake of Fire is going to be the state pen okay it goes from bad to worse all right but this is where we're going to read it in Revelation 20 where the wicked dead so ex let me make this clear at the great white Throne Jud judgement at the end of the 1,000-year millennial Reign where the wicked dead are judged there's no separating there's no hearing some say hearing come in well done some say depart from me the separation part there's none of that they will be judged according to their works it's like they're going to have to stand before the judge and he's going to go over their record and they will be punished eternally according to the severity of it will be according to how they lived okay hell is not in in in the second death in the Lake of Fire which is eternal torment it's not you are annihilated that will be according it will be degrees okay but just get this clear at that great white Throne Judgment at the end of the Thousand Years there's no separating of good and bad that happens a thousand years before the second coming of Jesus when the Christians are judged so hear me out real clearly if you've ever been truly born again at one point no matter how you've lived if you've backslidden all the way away from God and you've become a homosexual you become a murderer you become a liar a thief whatever an adulterer and you're living that lifestyle you got have to understand you're going to stand before the Judgment seat of Christ of Christians and there's going to be that's where there's going to be the the hearing where you either hear well done good and faithful servant enter into the joy of thy Lord or depart from me y'all hear me now let's go go to we'll just put these scriptures up oh let me well let me finish read I'm sorry I didn't finish she she said there's the the white Throne judgment the Judgment seat we don't stand at the white Throne Jud judgment correct what I need understanding on is if our sins have been cast into the sea of forgetfulness as far as the East is from the West why
are we still judged or still at judgment now that's a good question and then she goes on to say I'm not once saved always saved all right which is good so she kind of answered her own question but I'm going to explain this today because there's so much confusion about this issue but let's just put up Hebrews 9:27 y'all turn to Hebrews 9:27 real quick and actually we're going to look at Hebrew Hebrews 9 and then we're going to look at 10 today is going to be more of a teaching than a preaching yall y'all okay with that all right well it's even if you weren't that's what's going to happen but um so you know one of my old pastors you say it this way you say preaching is inspiration and teaching is information and you need both to have a balanced diet right but Hebrews 9:27 is very clear as it is appointed unto men once to die but after this the Judgment all right so judgment now the only people who aren't going to die are those that may happen to live all the way to the second coming of Jesus and if you're truly born again and living for God as you ought you will be caught up alive and you will be transformed into your Immortal Incorruptible body instantaneously in the blink of an eye but as for any other person if Jesus terries along and this generation begins to go and guess what we all die and up until this point there's a pretty much a uh clear statistic that one out of every one dies right and you know we believe in healing and miracles and all those things but let me just go on and tell you right now the most important thing for you to be ready for is that appointment you have with death and you don't know when that day is my brother teaches at Lo chipoka High School which is right out out side of Auburn and one of his students this past week was shot and killed now that kid I I'm sure when he went out that weekend he he didn't really think this is my last day to be on the earth living in this fleshly body so you don't know when it's coming um and it's important to always be ready for that appointment now let's go to Hebrews 10 because he goes right from
that in Hebrews chapter 9 and let's go down to verse 25 now Paul I believe Paul wrote Hebrews and I believe he's speaking clearly to Christians here because he gives these exhortations not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together as the man of some is but exhorting one another and so much the more as you see the day approaching now exhorting people means to call them near to Christ and away from sin that's what exhortation means doesn't just mean encouragement I know y'all have heard these Christian cliches for years but you need to look up some words because that's not what but he says call people near to Christ and away from sin especially as we see the day of God's Wrath and judgment the end time approaching and's say let's keep going and he he says this he says for if we sin willfully somebody say we if I say we am I including myself in that so who would he be talking to unsaved people or Christian people so he's talking to Christians and he says for if we sin willfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins let's keep reading I'm we come back to that in a second but a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation which shall Devour the adversaries keep going he that despised Moses law died without Mercy under two or three Witnesses of how much Sor or worse punishment suppose ye shall he be thought worthy who has trotten underfoot the Son of God and have counted the blood of the Covenant wherewith he was Sanctified somebody say was Sanctified was Sanctified somebody that was Sanctified what does that mean they were once made holy y made clean by what in this the blood of Jesus but then because they sin willfully we're going back what that means because they sin willfully they become what no longer Sanctified no longer clean no longer H let me just say this real clearly just because when you were born again and you confessed your sins and your sins were forgiven does not mean that from that point on all your sins are automatically forgiven after that you have to confess your sins and repent of your sins for them to be washed away after you are a Christian do you hear me I know there's a bunch of preachers out there and teachers on the internet and on TV that tell you oh your sins are forgiven past present and future that's what the Baptist Church taught lies lies and demonic deception because it's not what the Bible teaches and it never has that's why he said very plainly and we'll put that up in a second but first John joh 1: n if we confess our sins somebody say if in fact flip to that and
come right back to this if Jordan if if we confess our sins he is faithful and just to forgive us of our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness what's the counter of that if if you don't he won't you you everybody see that now let's go back to Hebrews chapter 10 and go back to verse 26 well actually let's just keep reading from verse 29 we need to read a few more verses and then we'll go back to 26 all right so he says of how much sore punished suppose ye shall he be thought worthy who have trien Under Foot the Son of God hath counted the blood of the Covenant wherewith he was Sanctified and Unholy thing and hath done despite unto the spirit of Grace now the word despite there means to abuse somebody say abuse abuse that's why my book the first book I ever wrote is entitled Grace abuse it's after this verse because the abuse of the spirit of Grace is when you think that you can live in sin habitually as a Christian and you're still going to be okay at the Judgment seat you're still going to make it in that's the greatest deception that Satan ever got across to the body of Christ is that you're once saved always saved no matter how you live is simply not what the Bible teaches and it and and teaching that people are once saved always saved no matter how they live has created a church world where sin is so accepted that it's almost like it's weird for a preacher like me to talk about it because they don't even talk about it they don't talk about repentance they don't talk about specific sins they don't deal with any of this because they just want to drink coffee and eat donuts and have everybody happy when they leave this is not Christianity folks this is why it's important for you to dig in but notice he goes on let's keep going the context here he says for we know him that has said Vengeance belongeth unto me and I will recompense or I will repay sayeth the Lord and again the Lord shall judge who his people y'all see that say this with me the Lord shall judge the Lord shall judge his people when does that happen at the great white Throne or at the Judgment seat of Christ judg seat okay now let's go to Second Corinthians well well I I'm sorry let's back up verse real quick to verse 26 I need to cover this and then we're going to go to 2 Corinthians 5 when he says here for if we sin the word sin here is a present tense Greek verb very important for you to understand this for those that are new watching there are three primary verb tenses in the Greek language the New Testament was written in Greek those are the present tense perfect tense aist
tense and there's variations of those but there are three basic verb tenses the present tense Greek verb the definition of that is ongoing continuous action taking place in the present so what he's saying here for if we Christians sin habitually continually it's a lifestyle now I know there's Christians out that say I sin we sin every day you don't have to let me let me here's here's a simple little test everybody in this room we're going to test something anybody got to watch look at five seconds see if you can keep sending for five seconds go ahead did everybody make it five seconds from sinning I mean keep from sinning I'm sorry from sinning so five seconds you think you can do it keep from saying five seconds right I think we can do it in here ready one ready let's go, one 1,2,3,4 1005 y'all make it now why did you make it 5 seconds because you chose to oh so if you chose to do it 5 Seconds guess what you can choose to do it 10 seconds and then you can choose to do it for a minute maybe and then you can choose to do it maybe for an hour maybe for a day now I'm not saying a Christian will never sin but this habitual stuff lifestyle stuff should not be in your life as a Christian don't don't don't tell me you're a habitual practicing fornicator adulterer homosexual drunker don't tell me you're you're doing those things on a regular basis habitually it's a lifestyle and you think you're going to make okay with God oh my sins were forgiven past present future keep telling yourself those lies because see here's what's going to happen you're going to stand before the Judgment seat of Christ and there's not going to be any of your favorite TV preachers like Joseph Prince or Charles Stanley or we could go on down the list here's what you're going to be judged by this book right here when the Bible talks about the books were open oh yeah there's multiple books but this one's going to be open right here and you will be judged by what is written in this book not by what your favorite TV preacher or Internet preacher told you this is why I tell you you better read this book for yourself and really that's the only way you're going to know if anybody's telling you the truth you have to know it for yourself right and any of this that I'm telling you you can look up you can verify all right but he says for if we sin willfully after
that we have received the knowledge of the truth well who is the truth Jesus the word knowledge in the Webster dictionary is defined as an understanding gained by experience that's what true knowledge is not just head knowledge but experience so he says if we sin habitually in a lifestyle manner willfully thinking the word willful there in the Greek means like a volunteer what's a volunteer somebody at works and they don't expect to get paid right so if you sin not expecting the payment for your sins you have been deceived and he says there's there remains no more sacrifice for sins why does he say that because you cannot receive the Forgiveness of Jesus that he provided through his sacrifice if you won't repent if you don't mean to stop the habitual sin in your life you understand that's why he says if you have this mindset there is nothing that can help you oh it's quiet as a Lutheran Church in here all right let's go to 2 Corinthians chapter 5 let's look at the Judgment seat of Christ somebody said that would make an Episcopalian nod might even thought all out a presbyterian right now let's let's go down to verse 10 I'm not going to read all this he talks about putting off this Tabernacle this body when we die then he says this for we somebody say we again who's he talking to unsaved people no Christian people he says for we must all appear before the Judgment seat of Christ what that everyone may receive the things done in his body according to that he hath done whether it be good or bad knowing therefore the terror of the Lord somebody say terror terror now if you were just going to be slapped on the hand lose a few rewards because of your unfaithfulness to God as a Christian why would there be any Terror at this place at this moment and guess what the word in the Greek here is phobo guess what it means sound familiar phobia it means to be afraid exceedingly that's why the word terror is used here and Paul says knowing the terror of the lord we persuade men well who is he talking about who's he trying to persuade to live according to the word of God to live a holy Life to Live obedient to God who's who's he talking to Christians this whole thing is to
Christians and by the time you get to verse in the context of this you get down to verse 17 you know he's telling them he's explaining to them this when he says right here verse 17 therefore If any man be in Christ he is a new creature old things are passed away and behold All Things become new that means if you were a homosexual and you get saved you come in Christ you have repented and you're no longer a practicing homosexual if you were transgender Ted in the house and you repent and come to Jesus what you're no longer what transgender if you were a drunker guess what when you come to Jesus and you repent you're no longer a drunkard this should be normal I remember when I came up in this in the 1980s this was normal preaching even TV preachers preach the the truth about these things we just a long we've come a long way but if any man be in Christ so he's saying your old life must pass away premarital sex fornication as the old- used to say shacking up you're not married you don't need to be living together oh but we're not doing anything stop the appearance of evil I don't care if you're not doing anything it looks like every to everybody else you are and the Bible say says abstain from what the appearance of evil I have so many people come in church oh well we we we live together but we not doing anything yeah right okay I was born at night but not last night all right now let's go you see that he said we must all appear what before the Judgment seat of Christ that we may now let's look at the great white Throne real quick go to Revelation chap chapter 20 just so you see this so we establish it go down to verse 11 I say Pastor Dean you're one of them fire Brimstone preachers no I'm just a Bible preacher I just don't leave out the uncomfortable Parts because I'm not trying to build a mega church that's not my goal my my goal is to get you to heaven for all eternity that's my goal he said I saw a great white throne and him that sat on it from whose face
the Earth and Heaven fled away and there was found no place for them and I saw the dead small and great stand before God and the books were opened and another book was open which is The Book of Life and the dead were judged out of those things which are written in the books according to their works and the Sea gave up the dead which were in it and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them and they were judged every man according to their works and death and hell were cast into the Lake of Fire this is the second death now pretty clear right now as I've said before I'm going to say this again the Bible is very clear that the second death is not ceasing to exist it's not Annihilation there's a lot of this being pushed right now that that Eternal punish m is not Eternal but we have it very clear and I'm just going to establish this real quick we have it very clear in Jude chapter 1 you can go there Jude chapter 1 of course it's only one chapter when it talks about Sodom and Gomorrah it says that they are suffering the Vengeance of Eternal fire there are people out there right now trying to say that hell is going to be like Sodom and gomor the people were burned up and destroyed but they they just annihilated them there is not eternal punishment or suffering for sin and that's simply not what the Bible says going down to the verse Sodom and Gomorrah there verse seven even as Sodom and gomorra and the cities about them in like manner giving themselves over to fornication the word pornia means all forms of sexual immorality and going after strange flesh are set set forth for an example suffering the Vengeance of Eternal fire somebody say Eternal ET now go to Revelation 9 no I'm sorry I'm Revelation 14:9 Revelation 14:9 now this is talking about the mark of the beast but what this is is a sin God's commanded you what you don't we not to take this Mark that's coming oh and it's coming quickly the third Angel follow them saying with a loud voice if any man worship the Beast and His Image and receive his Mark in his forehead or in his hand the same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the Holy Angels and in the presence of the Lamb so if you take what the mark worship the Beast follow this Beast system in the end it is a denial of Jesus Christ there's no coming back from it it's one of the unparal sins by the way see there's more than one and it says you'll be tormented with
fire and brimstone in the presence of the Holy Angels in the presence of the lamb and let's keep going and it says this and the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for just a little while and they're annihilated they cease to exist what does it say forever and ever see you need to understand something when you die your physical body dies you do not cease to exist it is just a step into the spirit realm and the spirit realm is just as real as the Physical Realm and you're going to step right into it and at some point your body will be resurrected and it'll be resurrected to be with Jesus and to be like his body or to be made a vessel of Wrath fitted for Destruction that's what Romans talks about but you're going to live eternally because you're an eternal being we're made in the image of God none of us will cease to exist we will just exist either with God in his peace in his joy in his love in his presence in his kingdom or we will be in Eternal punishment separated from him now the world and even a lot of Christians hate this well that just doesn't seem fair well then guess what you just made yourself the judge and you have your standards and you don't want to accept that he is the ultimate judge and has his standards that's all it boils down to and let me tell you that's why it takes humility to come to God because you have to admit God you're right I'm wrong you're holy I'm Unholy you know the end from the beginning you know the whole thing so he's the only one really that has the right to judge anyone eternally because he knows everything about every person he not only knows what they have done but what they will do now that doesn't mean what they will do is predetermined no we all have free will he's given us free will he just knows what you're going to do but you see this all right so we know hell's Eternal right now let's go to what Jesus said this is go to John chapter 5 let's look how Jesus taught this y'all are quiet in here today maybe that's
good all right let's go down to verse 28 I love how Jesus teaches this stuff because he teaches it so plain and simple so here's what Jesus said he says Marvel not at this for the hour is coming in which somebody say all all that are in the graves shall hear his voice and shall come forth they that have done good unto the resurrection of life and they that have done evil unto the resurrection of damnation now somebody say Pastor Dean sweet Jesus wouldn't talk this way yes he did he just put it there right there it is it's real simple you want to practice evil guess what there's a resurrection of damnation but when does that happen at the end of the Thousand Years you understand and he says the resurrection of life that's the first resurrection he talks about all right now let's look at something if you don't understand that there's these two judgments that are going to happen and you don't understand that the great white Throne there's no separation that's only the wicked unsaved Dead who never came to Jesus if you don't understand that in the resurrection at the Judgment seat of Christ at the Rapture and when the dead in Christ rise at the second coming when we we will all stand before God if you don't understand that there's going to be a separation there then guess what you're not going to understand you're not going to understand almost every Parable that Jesus told almost every single one he told was about standing Before the Throne in fact let's go to Matthew chapter 14 no I I'm sorry chapter 25 verse1 14 my mind's just racing on so many scriptures here now let's read this real quick this Parable this is one of the most important ones he said for the Kingdom of Heaven is as a man traveling into a far country who called his own servants and delivered unto them his Goods now when you're looking at this Parable when we interpret a parable you let the Bible interpret the Bible but it's not complicated in fact there none of the parables are complicated if you know the Bible right if you know what Jesus taught if you know what the apostles taught what the Holy Spirit gave us through them when you look at this he said when the Kingdom of Heaven is he talking about the kingdom of Hell or the kingdom of Satan no he says the Kingdom of Heaven how do you see the Kingdom of Heaven how how do we get into that what did Jesus say no man can even
see the kingdom no man can experience no man can have this unless he's what born again so you have to be born again meaning you have to come to Jesus but he says this even if you doubt this what me talking about the Kingdom of Heaven he says as a man traveling into a far country that what that be God Almighty coming from Heaven to Earth and becoming a man called his own servants somebody say his own servants and delivered to them his Goods so what did Jesus came he said he called his servants and he gave them his Goods what that means is he gave his servants every everything they would need to serve him Faithfully what I love about this picture is it's not us doing it in our own strength or our own ability I remember years ago I was fasting for 21 days and about day eight God gave me this full understanding of this Parable and I remember I started preaching it back then but one of the things the Lord showed me that that when it says he delivered to us his Goods what do we need as Christians or first to even become a Christian that we can't get on our own two things Grace and Faith well guess what the Bible says God has dealt to every man The Measure of Faith Romans right and the grace of God has appeared to all men right and Jesus said if I be lifted up I will draw all men unto me well all men are not being saved so he's drawing all that means the Grace has been given to draw to convict of sin to draw people to him because he is the way the truth and the life so the holy spirit is drawing people the holy spirit in fact God said he wrote his law in our hearts our conscience so he gave us a conscience so that he said man's without excuse right so God has delivered to every man the grace the conviction the drawing power to him and he's delivered Every Man a Measure of Faith the ability to believe so if man resists that or chooses to not believe it it's a choice because it's like God has a has a fishing line in a fish hook on you and he's trying to pull you and you have to fight it and what are most people doing fighting it but he delivered to them so he called his own servants so who's this talking about Christians are unsaved he delivered to them his Goods meaning he gave them what they needed right all right let's keep going and unto one he gave five talents to another two to another one to every man according to his several ability and straight way he took his journey and then he that received the five talents went out and traded with the same and made them other five talents and likewise he that received the two gained other two and he that received the one went and digged in the earth and hid look at this phrase his Lord's money the Bible calls this Unfaithful
servant calls Jesus his Lord does it not and this is in the red part of your Bible this is Jesus teaching keep going now this is for the prist after a long time not a short time after a long time the Lord of those servants cometh and reckon with with them let's try a little over 2,000 years right he comes and reckon now what does this mean reckon with them meaning it's judgment time going to sit down and they're going to give an account for what they have done with what he gave them notice they didn't earn the five talents they didn't earn the two talents they didn't earn the one it was given to them it was Grace they did didn't earn it it was given to them but let me tell you something what you've been given freely salvation is free but you must be faithful with it you understand there's a difference it comes free but it's going to cost you everything but he says a long time the Lord of those servants cometh and he reckon with with them this is the judge a picture the Judgment seat of Christ when he comes at the second coming of Jesus the Judgment of Christians will commence here's what he says and so he that received the five talents came and brought the other five talents saying Lord thou delivered unto me the five talents behold I've gained beside them five talents more his lord said unto him notice that his lord said unto him well done thou good and faithful servant thou has been Faithful over a few things I will re make thee ruler over many things enter thou into the joy of thy Lord now here what I'm about to say to you this when it talks about he went out and traded all this is showing is that this person took what God gave them and was obedient and faithful to walk with him and to be led by the Holy Spirit to obey the scriptures because if you live the real Christian Life and obey the Lord and obey the leading of the Holy Spirit you will bear fruit because you will be abiding in the vine you can't help but bear fruit there will be fruit it'll be automatic if you are walking and Abiding and living in Jesus so this guy he had he had a greater responsibility and let me just say this I think this guy represents people called to the five-fold ministry they have a greater responsibility to Bear more fruit but they've been given more so they must bear more that to whom much is given much is required that's what Jesus taught right then he says the guy with two he that received the two talents came and said Lord thou deliver unto me two talents and behold I have gained two other talents beside them so again he didn't have the same responsibility and he didn't have the same requirement on him from the Lord but he still needed to be faithful and bear fruit let's look at the final servant
what happened to him then he which have received the one Talent came and said Lord I knew thee that right there if you just stop for a second I knew thee not only did I know you but he's going to say I know what you wanted I knew thee that thou art a hard man and this is another thing right here people Christians that are what I will say is backsliders lukewarm Christians I will say American Christians for the most part they don't want anything that's too hard that's just a fact and Jesus got accused here of being a hard man by this servant of his all right they have no idea what heart is about to be but he says you're a hard man reaping where thou Hast not swn and Gathering where thou Hast not strawed now what he's talking about there is I knew that you're able to do the Supernatural and yet I still was afraid look here and I was afraid and went and hid thy talent in the Earth and loow thou Hast that is thine what did Jesus say his Lord his Lord here it is again that phrase his Lord answered and said unto him thou Wicked and slothful lazy servant you knew that I reaped where I sowed not and gather where I you knew i' do the supernatural if you can reap where you don't sow that's Supernatural you knew I could do the supernatural for you but you didn't do anything and look what he says keep going you ought to therefore have put my money to the exchangers and then at my coming I should have received my own with interest there should have been fruit in your life if You' had done what you were supposed to do there would be fruit and let's see what he says right here take therefore the talent from him and give it unto him which ha 10 talents for every everyone that has shall be given and he shall have abundance but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he has said God won't take your salvation away from you really says right here he's going to take away from this servant what he has the one thing that he had is getting taken away from him and then he says keep going and cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer Darkness there should be weeping and nashing of teeth can I go ahead and let you know that there's no darkness in heaven I remember Tony Evans you know the preacher the Baptist preacher out there in Texas that just got caught in his Affairs he taught this once- saved always saved Doctrine for years and taught that there's a dark corner of heaven where these people are going to be cast that that's how far you go when you got to create a false Doctrine and you got to cover you got to you got to try to deal with these scriptures and not just take them for what they
say and this is another reason why we must rightly divide the word of God the word of God is a puzzle and you have to take all the pieces together and this is why it's so important to do this kind of thing so you understand but this parable of the talents a has anything to do with playing the piano or singing you understand it's not about your gifts and talents this what this is was crazy stuff you hear in the body of Christ that's not what these mean this was money and they were supposed to bear fruit with it and they did not but I can't I can't even I mean you go to let's go to Matthew 22 another parable of the wedding Feast there it's not even 12 y'all we're doing good we're making our way through this yeah let's read this this here's another Parable let's start at verse one and Jesus said answered and spake unto the him by Parables and said the Kingdom of Heaven somebody say the Kingdom of Heaven kingom of as a certain King which made a marriage for his son and he sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding and they would not come and again he sent forth other servants saying tell them that are bidden behold I have prepared my dinner my oxen and fatlings are killed all things are ready come unto the marriage but they made light of it and went their ways one to his farm and other to his merchandise and the remnant took his servants and entreated them spitefully and slew them but when the king heard thereof he was wroth and he sent forth his armies and destroyed those murderers and burned up their cities now I believe this is a picture of everything that Jesus did leading up to 70 AD when Titus came in and destroyed the whole place this obviously was not the end because this continues then saith he to his servants so the Christians that are still there after all of this that are scattered he tells them uh the wedding is ready but they that were bidden were not worthy go ye therefore into the highways and as many as you shall find bid or invite to the marriage so those servants went out into the highways and gathered together all as many as they found both bad and good and the wedding was furnished with guest and when the king came in to see the guest he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment and he saith unto him friend how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment and he was speechless then said the king to the servant bind him hand and foot and take him away and cast him into outer darkness and there shall be weeping and nashing of teeth for many are called but few are chosen I see this when do you think this happens when when's the wedding
Feast anybody know go to Revelation chapter 19 Revelation 19 it's almost the the end of the book there this is at the very end verse one and after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven saying Allelujah salvation and glory and honor and power unto the Lord our God for true and righteous are his judgments for he hath judged the great which did corrupt the Earth with her fornication and Avenged the blood of his servants at her hand and again they said Allelujah and her smoke rose up forever and ever and the 4 and 20 elders and the four Beast fell down and worshiped God that sat on the throne saying amen hallelujah and a voice came out of the throne saying praise our God all ye his servants and ye that fear Him both small and great and I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude and the voice of many Waters and the voice of Mighty thundering saying Allelujah for the Lord God omnipotent reth let us be glad and rejoice and give honor to him for the marriage of the Lamb is come and his wife hath made herself ready and to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen clean and white for the fine linen is the righteousness of the Saints and he saith unto me right blessed are they that are called into the marriage supper of the Lamb he says and andh he saith to me these are the true sayings of God I'm going to stop right there because this is right before Jesus see this is this is the way I believe it's going to happen here all right the Bible Jesus said at the last day so if you're if you're righteous you're born again you follow Jesus at the last day he said this is in in John 6 several times you can pull up one of those verses if you want to but he said several times what you will be what raised up at the last day right uh Luke 17 he says the same day lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone upon the earth now this is where the the pre- Rapture people pre-trip Rapture people try to use that but what they don't get it says that the fire of God fell and destroyed them all here's what happens Jesus clearly taught re Matthew 24 a post-tribulation at the end of the tribulation Rapture now he said no man will know the day or the hour so we won't know the day or the hour we will know the season we will know the time we in fact we know when they Implement mandate the mark of the beast we got three and A2 years approximately so we'll know the season we're in but he says here um where was I going oh
yeah um I just lost my place completely what where's I going with that oh huh oh the last day that's right okay my mind is going so many places all right so at the last day so at the that's that's the resurrection what he calls the resurrection of righteous that's at the last day right so what's going to happen is yeah the the Rapture is going to take so we're going to have the seven-year tribulation period and we're not going to know exactly we may not know exactly when it begins so we won't know exactly when it ends it's there's going to be some days and some things in there that are are going to keep us from knowing the day and the hour let's just put it that way but at the last day whatever the last day is that's when the last trumpet will happen that's when the sixth and seventh seal happens that's when the seventh vial of Wrath happens okay but right before the seventh vial of Wrath the seventh vial of Wrath is when God's Wrath is poured out upon the world so severe that every mountain is brought down every island is moved out out of the places 100 pound hailstones fall upon the cities and destroy the cities of the Nations okay it is the great day of his wrath so what happens there I believe this is what happens Jesus we're going to have the same day remember he says the same day lot went out of Sodom it rained upon them destroyed them all here's what happens on the last day the Saints are going to be that are alive in Jesus Christ and walking will be raptured taken up to meet the Lord in the air I do believe we will be caught up and meet the Lord in the air we'll be changed in the moment twinkling of an eye the dead in Christ will be with us all right then we go into heaven we go we Ascend to be with the Lord in the clouds and then we go back into heaven and I believe too this is when the world sees Jesus and they begin to freak out and mourn and say hide us from the Wrath of the L because they know oh God here it comes the they they know now what's about to hit them they may have not believed in Jesus to this point but they believe now so we go into heaven the Bible says there's 30 minutes of silence that's the seventh seal 30 minutes of silence and then the wrath of God falls upon the Earth like it has never happened in the history of the world even the flood is not the flood would make this look you know you know the flood would be nice compared to this and God begins and it talks about there's going to be such earthquakes think about this that every mountain is going to fall down I can't even imagine what that's going to feel
like and there's going to be people standing around here there going to be people here there going to be people like Zuckerberg in his bunker that little bunker is going to collapse in on itself I kid you not they will not be able to hide anywhere and that day of Wrath and so what's happening is while this day of Wrath the same day we went up see and I don't know why this is hard for people to understand that there can be more things happen than you know a 24-hour period it's not like it's hard to do right most of you do more than one thing in a day right so we have this we're and this is why while we're in heaven having this marriage supper is when this wrath this the great day of God's Wrath is happening upon the Earth and he's Gathering the armies of the world are coming to fight at the battle of Armageddon yes it's a real battle it's not just a war between good and evil the knowledge of the stuff I get from people and all of this is going to be going and then when this marriage supper is over over and the Judgment of the Saints and this is where this happens after this takes place is when Jesus if you keep reading verse 11 on Jesus then gets on his White Horse to come back with us who are clothed in white robes to take over the Earth okay now this is why Matthew 22 talks about this parable of the marriage supper and there's a man standing there who doesn't have on a wedding garment what's the wedding garment it's the robe of righteousness it's the white linen and he's standing there at the marriage supper and the Lord's going what are you doing here without that on meaning you came here not as a righteous Christian but as a wicked Christian you came here as an Unholy Christian you came here as a Christian practicing habitual sin and living in it and you don't have on a wedding garment and what happens to the person standing there that doesn't have their wedding garment on they're cast out I hope y'all are understanding what I'm saying this morning I hope this is painting the picture this is the way the Bible says that it's going to go down you put it all together and this is it and it's real simple and notice let's let's go back to where he talks about what the the guy that had one Talent what did he say the first thing he said I was afraid now let's let's look at that go to Revelation and we're already close go to Revelation uh 21
6-8 this this is one of those messages that if I knew I was going to be gone tomorrow I would preach this that's how important it is Jesus said unto me it is done I am Alpha and Omega the beginning and the end I will give un him that is the thirst of the Fountain of the Water of Life freely he that overcometh shall inherit all things and I will be his God and he shall be my son but the fearful somebody say the fearful the fearful and unbelieving and the Abominable and the murderers and whoremongers and Sorcerers and idolators and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone which is the second death notice it starts out with the fearful why oh is it a sin to be afraid let me tell you when it's a sin to be afraid it's a sin to be a afraid if your fear keeps you from doing what God has told you to do you hear me and I've taught this for years you will conquer fear or it will conquer you if you're afraid of what people think about you if you're afraid of being misunderstood or misjudged or persecuted or talked bad about if you're afraid of losing a friends or family members are losing a job because you stand up for Jesus and because you're a light for Jesus if you're afraid of this world system see what's going to make many people bow the knee to the Beast and the Antichrist and take the Mark is because they're going to be afraid when they see all the things that are happening in the world they're going to be afraid and they're going to think oh this government system is going to take care of me and they've already programmed most people to think the government's going to take care of me if I'll just submit and take this implant in my hand or my forehead and submit and take their vaccine oh yeah if I just submit then I'll be okay no you won't the fearful this is why so many people kept that face diaper on that nasty that's why so many people ran to take an experimental jibid jab with no testing no safety testing except fizer knew what it was going to do they knew it was going to cause heart paric carditis myocarditis they knew it was going to cause blood clots and everything they knew that's why they tried to get a judge to silence it for 75 years all the data that they had they knew what it was going to do new study just came out 620 per increase in myocarditis pericarditis they just tested 9 million people in
South Korea because almost 96 % of their population took it I talked to Dr Teresa long sa's going to have to edit this out I talked to Dr terresa long she's the flight surgeon at Fort Rucker now fort novasel down south Alabama she is basically the flight surgeon for the entire military Air Force Marines Army so all Pilots at some point have to come through her she began very early on seeing the damage and the destruction and the injuries that the vaccine was she was having to ground Pilots the careers were being ended she stood up against the government against her commanding officers against the whole system and said this is evil we have to stop it while I was running for governor I met her got to have dinner with her one night sitting right beside me she told me this now think about this she told me this in 2021 it is now 2024 she said everyone that took the vaccine and the spike protein within the vaccine that if it went to the heart and caused heart damage she said we cannot reverse it she said to me that most of those people will be dead within five years and there's nothing we can do about it and now we're finding there was several doctors Harvard Yale doctors that just did a test on three 00 and somewhere between 3 and 400 people autopsies on people that took at least one or two of the vaccines the covid vaccines they found out that 73.9% of them died as a result of complications from the vaccine proof absolute proof they on the autopsies the evidence is all coming out but I say all that go what caused people to trust the government to trust y they've never lied about anything right nah never lied about anything but what caused people to trust the government and run take the vaccine fear what's going to cause people to run take the mark of the beast fear my kids are starving oh let me tell you something right now this is why you need to hear me this is why you better be walking in faith this is why you better be close to Jesus because it's going to take great faith to trust God through all that and not bow the knee in fear and this is why this says the fearful fear will cause you to deny the Lord to disobey him to fear men rather than fearing God and what did Jesus say you want to talk about preaching hell fire
and brimstone put up Revelation I mean uh not reel Luke 12 Luke 12 what did Jesus say don't fear them that can what kill the body but after that they have killed the body can do what but fear Him rather that after he's killed the body can do what put you in hell look what he says here this is Jesus Sweet Jesus sweet loving Jesus go to verse four I say unto you my friends be not afraid of them that can kill the body but after that have no more that they can do verse five but I will forewarn you Whom Shall you shall fear fear Him which after he ha killed hath power to cast into hell yeah I say unto you fear Him the choice fear fear God and Obey him or fear man that's your only choices say Pastor Dean well but I took I took the vaccine you know we've seen some miracles of healing I won't say who there's a person that took that vaccine right before they started coming to the church and started having problems s started having some serious problems from it and we just laid hands on them and prayed for Jesus to heal them and deliver them and the Lord did so there is healing the Lord can heal the Lord can help you some of this was done in ignorance but let me just go on and tell you ignorance is not going to be an excuse that's why Hosea 4:6 you can put this up Hosea 4:6 says my people God said my people are destroyed for a lack of knowledge but the problem is not always that they don't get the knowledge problem is once they get it they reject it I was warning people from the Geto in fact I have a I have a prophecy Quake episode from 2015 where I said they're going to use mRNA vaccines in the future and force them on us and mandate them on us and that that's going to be the road not the mark of the beast but the road to the mark of the beast I said this in 2015 how did you know that Pastor Dean oh I just listened to a TED Talk by Dr Jennifer Duda and she told us that's where we're going and I believed her it wasn't a prophecy they tell you what they're going to do and then they do it what I'm saying all this to say is the knowledge is is
available the knowledge is out there but so many CHR you're a conspiracy theorist I'm telling you what she said the woman that helped invent the crisper case9 technology the genan splitting technology I she told she she said this not me what do you mean I'm a conspiracy theorist when Bill Gates says they're going to lower the population of the world with new vaccines I'm not a conspiracy theorist when I tell you what Bill Gates said you know I wasn't even going to get on Tik Tok I decided to get on Tik Tok Ticky talk boy that's an addiction right there that some of you need to break free from Ticky talk it'll just keep rolling won't it but let me tell you I said oh well everybody people get on Tik Tok do a little short video on Tik Tok yeah okay finally I got the Chinese Tik Tok first video I put I said I'm GNA put up the Bill Gates Ted Talk from 20 2010 where saying it where I have him saying it and I have the quote of him saying it underneath it I the video was up maybe 10 minutes and they took it down and I'm like you can't say I'm spreading misinformation I'm just giving you what the man said him saying it I didn't even comment on it I got a video taken down one time from YouTube because I said the words I I had covid I guess that's censored now right but the fear is going to be intense you guys and I I'll say this too now in this information age there is really not going to be an excuse for not knowing what's coming look I listen to CLA Schwab I watch the world economic Forum videos I watched the world government summit video I listen to this crazy what's his name Dr Peter um oh I can't remember his name now the crazy guy that's saying that the next time they said that that we have a pandemic which when they start saying that you know they're planning it right the next time we have it he says we're going to bring out NATO to enforce people to take the vaccines petet heret how do you say itet heret Peter heret I'm like wow and he's he's all up in too with the UN and the World Health Organization so there's going to be a lot of fear but see this is what Jesus said he warned us in Luke matter of fact go to Luke 21 it's only 10 after 12 y'all y'all be all right I know it's hot y'all sweating like me it's hot up here but but go to when he say he says uh what is it verse whatever uh down
their hearts failing them for fear Luke 21 and Jesus is talking about all the things that are coming all the things that are going to be coming on the world and he said men's Hearts failing them for fear and for looking after those things which are coming upon the Earth for the powers of Heaven shall be shaken I think it's interesting their hearts failing them and the covid vaccine damages the heart man we got kids we got kids having heart attacks kids having heart attacks y'all but it's never happened before but I okay nothing to see here it's it's so sad what has happened but again all of it was what driven by fear the fear of man brings a snare y'all so let's not be fearful and unbelieving so well Pastor Dean a lot of this stuff is scary I understand that to the Natural man it can be scary but when you get afraid what are you supposed to do what does the Bible say I remember what one of the Veggie Tales right the Veggie Tales taught us when I am afraid I will trust in you right some of you don't even know what a veggie tale is Veggie Tales Veggie Tales right when I'm afraid so what you do is you shift it into when you get afraid you shift it into I will not be afraid because I am in Jesus and Jesus is in me and listen to me even if you die you got to understand he's got you don't be so worried about that if you're right with him and walking with him he's got you so you can't you're not even supposed as Christians we're not we're not supposed to fear death we're not supposed to fear persecution we're not supposed to fear famine or pestilence or War we're not to be afraid of those things because our trust is fully in the Lord and what does he say if we will trust in him he will make sure he takes care of us in what even in famine he said all the stories I have I had a had a an apostle from India way back that came to our church said they were so persecuted as Christians where he lived in India that they got they had no money
no food and God had big big birds I don't know what it was a eagle or some type of drop this monster fish right at their feet that he could cook and make his whole family to eat places where there were War torn just like like fleeing bullets and bombs going off and a mother's like I no food for her children and and pray and somebody walks in in the midst of war going on all around them and hands her some milk and some eggs and some stuff for the kids to to to help them to eat food God is able y'all he's able to make the bag of flour keep going the bag of rice to keep going that's what I'm saying we've got to be what believing Not Afraid and look I've got children children most of them grown now set for Faith grandchildren now I don't I I hate thinking that they're going to have to see these things they're going to have to go through these things but am I going to sit around and be afraid I'm going to sit around and ring my my hands and go oh what are we going to do no my trust will be in the Lord and I will make sure that I'm not rebelling and living in sin because let me go in and tell you right now you can say I trust the Lord but if you're in adultery you're not trusting the Lord you hear me you got to get this you don't want to be in that time period and not have on the robe of righteousness and not have it white and clean you say well Pastor how to do that real simple where we started if we confess our sins he is faithful and just to forgive us if we will repent turn away from our sins right he'll wash them away as I've said before keep short accounts with God you don't want long laundry list to problems in your life because you're compromising and living in sin I can't even imagine imagine a man or a woman tell me they believe the Bible they're Christians and they're playing around on God right now and looking on this world at any moment y'all any moment a nuke could go off and the world's going to change any moment the next pandemic any moment the next pestilence any moment the next War there Pastor Dean that's just horrible that doesn't make me feel
happy I know I'm sorry you know even the Declaration of Independence said the pursuit of happiness not happiness we're not guaranteed anything amen what do we need to do draw near to Jesus did that answer did did I I know I was a bit scattered this morning but is that everybody clear on it did I get it clear enough two judgments judgment seat of Christ great white Throne okay because you need to know I mean I get more questions that's that's one of the things I get probably I would say in the top five of questions I get that question a lot they just don't understand these these two judgments now somebody will say I know we were taught in the Baptist Church oh that's just the the Judgment seats just where you're going to lose a few rewards but you're still going to make it because of First Corinthians chapter 3 oh no that's going to happen too there'll be Christians who make it but didn't do some things that they should do and they're going to lose some rewards but they're still going to make it because they repented of their sins but they just didn't do everything that they could have done for the Lord the Lord's going to have mercy but don't don't for one second think you can be a willful habitual Sinner and everything's going to be okay no no no no and I talk about the sins that are un death you want to know the sins are in death Galatians 5 Ephesians 5 c 1 Corinthians 5 and 6 Revelation 21 6-8 you want some list Romans chapter one those are some things you need to read it just repeats those c a certain list of things again and again sexual immorality and it just goes down the list and drunkenness and Witchcraft and all this stuff it gives you list it's in fact I love the fact that the Lord Jesus taught the same thing and the apostles taught by the Holy Spirit the exact same they gave us list if you do a b CDE e f and g here you're not going if this is what you practice you're not do gave you a list so you're without excuse so I didn't know that was in there well then you didn't read it because you the first time you read Galatians 5 you go oh oh oh let me make sure these things are not in my life and see if you would read that stuff you don't even need a preacher telling you if you would just read it yourself and go oh I might need to pay attention to this right here say Pastor Dean what about what about this what about that what about oh smoking or this that you know what the Bible doesn't say you go to hell for smoking you might smell like you've been there but it doesn't say you'll go to hell but sh should you smoke no it's bad for you you shouldn't do it it's not a good witness right but I can't tell you you're going to hell for smok is the Bible didn't say that there's nowhere in there it says it right so I tell people all the time I'm
not going to tell you I I I try to stick to the big things the you know what I mean the things that are just without mistake if you do this it's going to determine heaven or hell for you it's going to determine Eternity for you so if you want some homework Galatians 5 Ephesians 5 1 Corinthians 5: 6 Revelation 21 6-8 r rans chapter 1 read those you'll get a good idea of how you need to live your life amen let's stand woohoo I it must be 100 degrees out there because I it's just I can always tell when it gets about that hot in here changes in here big time well let's let's do uh yeah just pick a good one here and let's pray first I want to pray over this heavenly father we pray this morning I pray God that eyes be opened yes you love us yes there is grace and mercy and forgiveness but you want a people that are serious serious about coming to you and serious about following you and obeying you and living the way you've commanded us to live Lord the New Testament the New Covenant has given us the standard the perimeters Lord we don't live under the old Covenant but Lord everything you carried over into the new that's what we live by and you've given us the list you've given us the sins that will if practiced habitually will separate us from you forever even if we're born again Christians there will be a day of judgment for us and accounting and some will make it in and some won't and I pray that everyone that hears this will make sure that they repent that they hate sin and love you that they become a new creature in Christ and that all old things pass away and All Things become new I pray this today for everyone in Jesus name amen you got one good for us all right we're going to do one song and then we're gonna get out of here Yep this is a good one good choice it's a new song that recently came out but the lyrics are [Music] amazing Resto in me the joy of my salvation take me b to where it all

these triggers in there and I mean I'd go through deliverance and I'd fight and do Warfare and I mean I would just it would just the devil would just come in and hit me hard and just drag me down to the ground and I finally I mean it sometimes some of the things took years of praying and fighting with and the Lord wants to see you be a warrior and not a wimp and we all have our different Wars we have to fight and battles that we have to face but I promise you this I've learned in my 37 years of Walking With Jesus if you refuse to give up and you get back up and you say Lord help me heal me deliver me help me overcome this may not come exactly when you want it to but it will come he will answer you know I I told I had to tell a guy that's going through a lot of stuff with his family his wife's very sick she needs a liver transplant if she doesn't get the liver transplant she's not going to make it unless God heals unless a miracle and they're going through all just all kinds of battle finances and being between two countries and um you know know we're praying for him his name's Brett just pray for Brett and um but I told him I said you know he text me from time to time I said the Lord must trust you said he must trust you like he trusted job because we're all going to be handed some stuff that it's not going to be good and sometimes the Lord allowed the devil to bring that suffering and pain or problem into our lives because the Lord trusts us that we will be like job and overcome it and love him in spite of the pain in spite of the suffering in spite of the trouble and we just keep loving him and being faithful because you know I'm not going to be one of those preachers that's just like oh you're in sin if this has happened to you no it may not be you may be job I mean it wasn't that job was not a you know a perfect man but God himself said he didn't sin this is not because of sin I have allowed the devil to do this because job is one of my favorites see that doesn't register sometimes with our brain but the Lord knew that that was going to make job even a stronger more dedicated more purified and job even said when I come through this I will be like gold tried in the
fire I'll be purified even more so God has a purpose in everything that you go through you hear me but you just have to keep fighting and standing and walking with Jesus and you will overcome amen all right y'all know the drill around here uh quick announcement um should I even say it well this we know I go ahead and inform you this we will not be having Skyfall at the land I will not go into all the further red tape that we have run into it's not that it won't happen it's just not going to happen in less than three months from now so uh there's just issues with our government here um but we are looking at a venue that we will know about tomorrow so uh that should be solidified tomorrow and I'll tell everybody then so but the plan is still to have it yes if you've already registered you're good if you've already made Hotel Arrangements uh if you've already made flight arrangements you're totally good because you'd fly into the same place but if you've already made Hotel Arrangements in opica you're still good if you have any questions about it just email uh Skyfall conference gmail.com Skyfall conference gmail.com and you can ask I'm the one that'll get that so you can ask me questions about where you're staying or you know we'll we'll let you more know more more this week once we solidified it yes yeah we're not saying it till we actually have the contract all right okay that's all we have that's all the announcements uh well I will say this we uh of course fin gr School of Ministry for this year enrollment is closed but this will be the biggest starting class so far 24 new [Applause] ones 24 new ones and counting those that are still in I don't even know how many 40 total right now in the school of ministry wow that's a lot I will say this to those of you I know most of our soon Tobe students are listening or watching or will watch let's do this for the first time ever in a fire and gra School let's all 24 make it to the end of the year amen I would love to see that yeah y'all be praying for him all right anyway y'all know the drill here hug some necks before you leave God bless y'all out there love you
