025 m1-652 Revelation 9 06-26-2013

guy bought a horse the only difficult thing was that um the horse was well it was a pastor who owned it before and so he's buying it from this pastor dude and the guy said well uh yeah i'd love to buy your horse the bastard there's only one thing this this horse well i just kind of trained it you know it'll only go when you say praise the lord and so you know don't kick it don't you know say giddy up just say praise the lord and it'll go and he said now if you wanted to stop uh you know you don't do your typical woe you don't even have to pull back on the reins you have to do any of that stuff uh all you have to do is say amen and then that thing will stop it's a great horse it's a spiritual horse and so the guy says cool and he buys the horse and he he gets on there and he says giddy up and the guy says no no remember you've got to say praise oh yeah oh yeah praise the lord and off it went and the guy was kind of happy with his new horse and he gets it galloping and and then in a full speed running he's like this is great but the trail comes to an end you know up ahead and it's going to go off a cliff so he's like oh whoa whoa whoa and nothing happens the horse just keeps going racing toward the cliff whoa whoa and he's like oh yeah what was that word there's a word oh i'm supposed to say huh and then of course he's getting closer and closer finally he says lord save me amen the horse stops uh because he said amen and and he was right at the edge of the cliff man just almost died almost to his peril he said oh praise the lord [Laughter] sorry that was a bad one uh but in verse 13 of chapter eight where we left off we saw this eagle that was saying whoa whoa whoa see there's a nice tie-in for you segway slick uh whoa whoa whoa but it wasn't stopping anything was it this woe is actually starting something there's three woes that are linked to three more trumpets that we'll be sounding we saw last week in chapter nine the first uh four of six trumpets that would be blown uh seven total i should say and uh we see that it's the fancy heptatic structure of the book of revelation you see things in sevens there were seven churches that were spoken to in asia minor there would be seven seals that would need to be broken to take back planet earth we saw seven seals at the seventh seal then we saw a whole new can of worms or a can of trumpets as it were that would be blown seven trumpets that would be alone each having a whole nother wrath of god being poured out or allowed in this case we'll see tonight the lord allowing cataclysmic events to happen to take place on planet earth uh one thing we need to understand is uh god is i believe holding back uh some things and when we talk about you know satan being the prince of this world the god of this world this is something we've talked about in previous themes and i've talked to you about how god gets the blame for you know acts of god tornadoes hurricanes earthquakes floods but really that's just an indication of the fallen state of the world because of man's sin and satan's depravity and willingness just to wipe out this world that we live in it's satan who should get the credit but god should get the credit for holding back all the things that we don't see all the cataclysmic events that don't actually in fact happen when you realize how intricate the earth and its system is you'd realize that even sometimes inches would make differences uh you know even the global warming that our president talked about uh last yesterday i guess it was uh and and how even if the earth were just off in small small terms distance from the sun to the earth life could not exist on the planet and yet god seems to hold it all together and we just continue happily and so much so does he take care of things we think he he doesn't even exist but i believe the lord is holding all things together and by him all things literally consist or exist that's what colossians tells us the book of revelation shows a time this tribulation period revelation 6 through 19 is what we've been seeing called the time of god's wrath where he's going to pour it out upon a christ rejecting sinful world it's going to happen the bible says and it's not that crazy to even think about really what about space aliens you know it was stephen hawking you know that guy is just a brainiac man he's just uh he well he's sadly he's there in this wheelchair and he only communicates through a computer because of his um you know physical health but uh an amazingly sharp guy but he came out uh last year saying we um the chances are there's life on other planets he said we better hope there's not he said because the math of it doesn't work out very good humanity would be destroyed if there is in fact life on other planets if there is first contact by from some other space alien nation uh then we would be wiped out that's the math of it he said but what's interesting is i do believe in extraterrestrials oh brilliant you're a trekkie you're a star wars uh geek is that who you are well actually the extraterrestrials i believe i believe they're talked about in the bible uh and there's demonic entities and spiritual powers and principalities rulers and dark places that the bible talks about and right now we see through a glass darkly we don't see all those things clearly but there will be a day when that's going to be removed could it be during the tribulation period that's when the lord himself will lift his hand of protection from the earth from what the world will look at is extraterrestrials we see movies conditioning us to accept the idea by the hundreds we see movies uh where you know uh aliens come and take over the earth well you're gonna see a very well a very much similar theme here in chapter nine of the book of revelation and i believe a lot of movies have borrowed the images from the bible but what's amazing about this is to think that the bible says this is going to happen and this is true well brett what how are we supposed to believe the bible why should we believe the bible when in fact we don't believe the hollywood movies one big difference the bible has proven when it speaks of things in prophetic terms that is predicting the future so far the bible's perfect so far the bible has not missed one tiny little minute detail you say for brett all this end time stuff hasn't happened yet oh but don't be don't be uh fooled the bible is full of prophecies there's more prophecies that have taken place already and been fulfilled than there are futuristic prophecies and we could even talk about the 300 various prophecies spoken of concerning jesus and his coming his first coming that jesus came was born in bethlehem he was uh you know there uh despised and rejected and and he was uh by his own family and brothers uh that was all foretold that it was all he'd be rejected by this world that he'd be beaten beyond recognition that he'd die for the sins of the world that he'd be uh you know born in bethlehem he'd live in nazareth uh there's all kinds of prophecies even egypt his little time that he and his mom and dad lived in egypt it's all talked about in the old testament that it would happen details perfectly fulfilled in the bible and not only that but cataclysmic things like for example the the prophecies taught foretold that the jews would be annihilated by the romans and they'd be scattered throughout all the world that was happened uh part of me predicted in ezekiel 36 and 37 and that did happen and that jezreel would be regathered into their nation the land of israel that was predicted perfectly come to pass hebrew would be a extinct language but it would be brought back and spoken of again that has happened and you can just go along much of the old testament check check check all these prophecies so the reason that you should maybe care about that is because the future prophecies that have yet to come to pass well we should take them seriously even though they might seem a little crazy even though revelation 9 does seem like a bad space alien movie uh we are going to see that those kinds of things not only are going to happen but actually there's some foreshadowings in the old testament of those events as they would happen later on in human history so that's the idea here it's hard to get around the craziness of it but at the same time the bible says this is how it's going to come down the question is will you know what's happening will you be here during that time i hope you won't be because the bible says that we as christians are not appointed under wrath but to obtain salvation through jesus christ first thessalonians 5 tells us that and the wrath of god is going to be poured out during the tribulation revelation chapter 9 is kind of in the middle of that tribulation period not quite at the middle yet we're going to get to the middle when we get to a single event does anybody remember what that event is right the abomination of desolation coming soon to a theater near you uh it's a horrible event where uh we'll get into that uh in a few chapters from now so uh we're still kind of at that beginning or earlier stage of the tribulation period but there are some events that you should know about the first of the trumpet judgments that we've seen we saw the first angel sound and we saw blood and fire or hail and fire mingled with blood we talked about what that might be second angel sounded his trumpet in verse eight of chapter eight and we saw this burning uh blob of what seemed to be a mountain burning with fire hitting the sea of the oceans and destroying a third part of the oceans of the world uh and then verse 10 we saw the third angel sound and there was a great star that fell from heaven burning as it were a lamp uh destroying the fresh water of the earth we saw that and then the fourth angel sounded his trumpet we looked at um last week and we saw the the sun smitten the third part of the moon the third part of the stars and the third part of them was darkened and one of the day shown not for a third part of it so something happened there seemingly kind of for a third part of a day which is kind of interesting but then this uh crazy angel or eagle as we looked at it last week flies over the earth saying whoa whoa whoa whoa to the inhabiters of the earth um now the word inhabiters of the earth is an interesting phrase i might have touched on this last week for a couple of the services i'm not sure if i told everybody this but the inhabitants of the earth is kind of a red flag phrase that you come across in the book of revelation and it's specifically talking about those who've rejected the lord living on the earth it's not just anybody who's living on the earth that's the inhabiters of the earth like first john talked about those who love this world more than they would love uh things of righteousness and that's the description of these people the inhabiters of the earth is a group of people that you should know about uh and so that phrase should come up and the woe is not to the people that are uh what we are going to call tribulation saints now this tribulation saints are made up of two specific people groups give me one of them jews right the tribulation saints made up of jews and there's specifically how many of them that are going to be kind of billy graham jews if you would 144 thousand i use the term billy graham because he's led a lot of people to lord these jews will be sort of like evangelists that will be uh powerful used by the lord during the tribulation period there will be more jews than 144 000 saved that's just the group that's going to be mightily used marked with the seal of god in their foreheads we're told and then there's another group of people that are we call tribulation saints not just those jews but also the gentiles right those that didn't believe the church is not going to be here i don't believe at all during the tribulation period you never see a mention of the church ever in the tribulation period you see the mention of these people who repent and see jesus in the tribulation period so uh this woe these three woes why because there's three more trumpets to be blown and the idea is those are going to be worse than the previous four trumpets we looked at last week so let's get to it verse one of chapter nine and the fifth angel sounded and i saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth and to him was given the key to the bottomless pit now this verse you might just say okay another another star fallen from heaven like last week but it's actually a little different uh this idea of the the fifth angel sounding he sees a star fall the the um aorus tense or literally it's uh uh it could read and some of your newer translations uh had already fallen to the earth the star which had already fallen what's the point of that well interesting this idea of the star most scholars believe this is more than just what we saw in the previous chapter the star that fell from the sky but this one had already fallen and the implication might be that this star is not a what as much as it's a who uh that's that's what's interesting about this uh who is this star or what is the star falling from heaven there's a few hints that we have here um it's an event that already took place what is the star that already fell from heaven some say it could be none other than lucifer or satan himself by the way the word lucifer is a name that can mean shining one like a star in fact a few interesting passages you should maybe write down in your notes luke chapter 10 verse 17 do you remember when this happened let me just read it to you it says here in luke 17 it says 10 17 it says the 70 disciples again with joy saying the lord the devils are even subject unto us through thy name and jesus said to him i beheld satan as lightning falling from heaven what's that jesus saw satan these these guys are marveling these 70 apostles were saying uh we we can speak your name jesus and these these demons and devils and stuff have to be subject to us through your name he said yeah i saw that happen when satan fell it was like lightning falling from heaven behold i give to you power to tread on serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy and nothing shall by any means hurt you now what's interesting about this is uh scriptures like this make goofy churches like down in texas handle snakes in their have you ever seen the snake handling churches where they bust out the boxes of snakes and it's like hey let's worship the lord and pass snakes around great idea not really a friend of mine chico holiday was doing a concert down and i think in texas somewhere and you know he just traveled around doing concerts he was a kind of a famous musician in this in the 70s and what have you and then he goes into this church starts playing his guitar and they're all in the spirit and they'll get the boxes out start he says i made a new door in that church man once he saw and he left the stage ran out the door and they didn't even notice he was gone they were solely in the spirit and loving passing the snakes around from time to time you hear about these people getting bit by these rattlers and going to the hospital or dying um not a good idea it's not what we're talking about when we read about serpents and stuff like that in fact the context of that is actually mark 16 where it talks about missionary work but that's a whole other thing but here the lord's saying yeah you will have power over these uh demonic entities but there's one other verse i'd like to read you in luke chapter 10 right there at the end of that little section jesus says notwithstanding in this rejoice not that the spirits are subject unto you but rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven isn't that interesting how those people that get all big on demonic stuff and on tv or uh you know you see these movies exorcism or or whatever it's people get all hyped out on that and they have power to exercise demons and all that it's funny how jesus sort of low profiles and says don't rejoice in any of that stuff rejoice in this that your name is written in heaven that means you're saved it's almost like you could say jesus is reminding us remember to be humble that you have no power at all apart from jesus and also just remember to be glad that you're saved not not all into demons and casting them out and stuff like that there's a priority kind of set here um but all that to say jesus said i saw satan fall as it were lightning falling from heaven interesting description there isn't it isaiah chapter 14 is kind of a key passage i'll read this to you isaiah 14 verse 12. this is describing the fall of lucifer satan remember you can read in the scriptures that satan before he fell and was lifted up with pride and thought of himself as god or equal with god he was the most beautiful of heaven he was a worship leader seemingly in heaven um he was the guy who led the music if you would that answers a lot of questions about musicians and stuff to me but anyway verse 12 of chapter 14 of isaiah howarth thou fallen from heaven o lucifer son of the morning how they are cut down to the ground which did weaken the nations for thou hast said in thine heart i will ascend into heaven i will exalt my throne above the stars of god i will sit upon also the throne a pardon me the mount of god of the congregation and the sides of the north i will ascend above the heights of the clouds i will be like the most high see all these i will i will i will be careful that's a very um devilish little phrase i will um that's why i wonder if james we're told not to say i'm going to do this or i'm going to do that but say if the lord will i'll go this way or do that thing that's a very satanic kind of behavior yet thou shalt be brought down to hell to the sides of the pit they that see thee shall look narrowly upon thee and consider thee saying is this the man that made the earth tremble and did shake the kingdoms that made the world as a wilderness and destroy the cities thereof that opened not the house of his prisoners when it says look narrowly upon upon him the idea is that you'll kind of squint and go is that the guy when we see satan we're going to go man i can't believe he was such a rabble rouser he doesn't look that bad uh but he was in fact bad and will be bad as we see it um the point is of all this is um this star from heaven he's one that fell from heaven that could be very much lucifer the shining one isaiah 14 and luke 10 gives us hints as to that so some people say this star that fell from heaven past tense already had fallen uh how many of your newer translations say it in the past tense already yeah good okay that's great that's good stuff uh so uh had fallen from heaven to the earth and uh to given to him was the key of the bottomless pit now the question is who gave him the key and why would anyone give satan the key to the bottomless pit some of you're like bro what is the bottomless pit i like the princess bride you remember that movie and the guy's there and he's like the pit of despair remember that that's kind of like the bottle so what is the bottomless pit it's the greek word is abuso maybe you've heard of it the abyss is the idea oh so that's hell right brett wrong one of the most uh confused topics in in the bible i'm finding with christians is that people don't understand that we clumsily call several places hell but there's actually really different words that you should know there's gehenna there's sheol there's hades and we're going to introduce you to a couple new ones like this one this this key uh to the bottomless pit the abuso or abyssus is the greek word abyssus uh another name is tartarus by the way so you say well what in the world is this place and what is the bottomless pit well i don't know how much to go into this today because uh it might freak out some of you guys because some people are like i can't believe all that stuff you said you got to remember in the old testament days when you died you would go to a place that was called various names hades abraham's bosom or paradise do you guys remember these these terms okay now you say hades is hell well kind of uh but do you remember luke chapter 16 we see a little snapshot jesus talks about that place where there was hades but there was also paradise and it was split between the two by a great what great gulf a great division between the two and so in in the pre-new testament days that's where people went when they died if they were a believer in god like abraham who was it says that he believed god so it was counted unto him for righteousness so abraham went to what was called abraham's bosom which was paradise side of what we'd call hades okay the bad side of hades was in fact hot that's why and dry that's why people get confused with hell as we traditionally know it but luke chapter 16 jesus talked about how the rich man and the poor man lazarus remember that whole story and uh the rich man wanted to have lazarus just go get a drop of water and put it on his tongue because he was burning in that side of hades if you would meanwhile the guy that was the poor man he ends up in in abraham's bosom there with abraham so that's where we go when we die no that was old testament times now half of that whole place was retired uh and i'll show you let's let's let's attempt uh to show you uh how that all worked out look at second peter go with me to second peter now this is going to try to answer some of these discussions about hell and death and all that stuff and heaven even maybe so you got in second peter chapter 2 verse 4. it says for if god ii peter 2 4 for if god spared not the angels that sinned but cast them down to hell the greek word there is tartarus okay not gehenna gehenna just sneak preview is the final hell that we often traditionally think of a lake of fire that's not what tartarus is tartarus is the abuso or the abyss that we're talking about uh in the book of revelation chapter nine for if god spared not the angels that sinned but cast them down to hell and delivered them into chains of darkness to be reserved unto judgment and spared not the old world but saved noah and the eighth person a preacher of righteousness bringing in the flood upon the world unto the ungodly turning the cities of sodom and gomorrah into ashes by the way the story of noah and solomon are often compared to end times by the biblical writers so uh this idea of sodom and gomorrah or even the the flood of noah is compared it's okay to make that comparison but during the days of noah there were some seemingly angels that are talked about here that sinned in particular they were particularly bad angels if you would and what were they put into tartarus or or the abuso and they were locked away in chains by the way hell doesn't have chains tartarus and the buso has chains that's something that's just a freebie for you um you say okay so so there's a place that's reserved for those guys now that's that is true and interesting but uh the question is who pray are these guys go with me to genesis chapter 6. so in uh genesis chapter six we read this crazy uh story and uh it's one that causes all kinds of speculation and interest and it probably should well you just read it as it goes it says now remember this is right around the flood time when noah's uh getting ready to build the ark it says in genesis 6 1 and it came to pass when men began to multiply on the face of the earth that's population explosion just like our times and um it says and the daughters were born unto to the men of the face of the earth there and then it says in verse two and the sons of god uh the word there is translated every other time in the bible as angel in the old testament hebrew so when it says sons of god don't just think of men the idea is angel every other time in the bible it's it's uh interpreted four other times i should say as the word angel so it says the sons of god saw the daughters of men that they were fair and they took them wives of which they chose and the lord said my spirit will not always strive with man for that he also is flesh yet his days shall be 120 years that's when the lifespan was shortened um by the lord verse 4 then there were giants in the earth in those days and also after that when sons of god came into the daughters of men they bear children to them and the same became mighty men which were of old men of renown and god saw the wickedness of man very great in the earth what's going on there some would say okay that's just wicked men have an intimacy with the daughters of men uh and uh just bad times but the reason this is interesting to most bible scholars is the language there of the original hebrew the word angel the word angel in the hebrew which i don't remember what the hebrew word is for that but the word is translated every other time is angel so is this an angel but do angels or fallen angels is the idea here these are disobedient angels and they're somehow interacting with the daughters of men some people say they're men demon possessed by fallen angels or whatever and some people say demons and angels aren't even the same thing there's confusion on this but here's the thing we know something's up here because if it's just guys having intimacy with girls uh why would that produce a race of giants that's the idea here when it talks about these men of renowned giants in the earth in those days men of renown and the the the word giant there is nephilim which means the fallen ones so there's a strange thing now what's really kind of interesting is every culture in ancient writings talks about giants it's kind of an interesting thing isn't it that there there were days of giants and and some people talk about that and you say yeah that's the nba and they are big guys but but biblical giants are really big guys uh some believe goliath was minimally nine feet other saves closer to 11 feet tall and uh was a descendant of maybe the sons of enoch which were the giants during the time of caleb remember caleb going into the land of the anakims and he wanted that land where the giants lived because it was the best land giants live in the nicest place so caleb says i'm going to go whoop on those giants and he did and he took the land it's a great story but the idea is where do these giants come from the idea is there were people uh that is women of earth having intimacy somehow with fallen ones or these angels that were fallen and it created this demonically induced group of giants or whatever say breth that's a little weird yeah it is i agree and i couldn't defend that i wasn't there but the bible says this happened and this is kind of an interesting little deal you can study on that and we might even go into it a little more in depth when we get into the book of genesis but here's the thing uh these were disobedient angels that's the idea who are the disobedient angels that peter was talking about that we just read those those ones during the time of noah what happened to them they were particularly bad demons who because of this event of genesis 6 were thrown into this place called the abuso or the abyss and they were locked up in chains okay now that's important as as it relates to tonight on our study in revelation 9. um so all that said uh hopefully you're starting to get the picture okay so so you say brett there's a place that's specifically set aside it's it's like i used to do jail ministry and uh it's kind of interesting the population of the prisons and stuff that i got to go into there were certain guys that got quite a bit of liberty to walk around play ping-pong lift weights watch tv but there was another level that kind of had to stay in their cells but there was even another level of solitary confinement i remember seeing this one guy he wanted to talk to a pastor and i went to see him and they only let me go to the outside of his cell where there was a just a huge steel door and a little three inch by three inch piece of plexiglass that was probably i don't know how thick it was but i think it was like three or four inches thick and he i could just see him and he was trying to yell at me through this little tiny glass thing and it was it was kind of a sad deal because i've seen a few counts where i think someone was in fact demon possessed and that was one of those guys in prison and he was it was a troubling deal but i thought i thought of this i thought man these are the worst of the worst demons and lord says i'm putting them in the the the deepest hole that i can find and lock them away for a time so that's what that's what this place uh the abyss if you would is it's talked about here now uh where do people uh where is satan gonna end up and all that stuff well if you remember i told you about i told you about the whole paradise and abraham's bosom and hades well when jesus uh died on the cross it says he first before he ascended what did he do he descended let me read it to you john it down your notes ezekiel chapter 4. it says wherefore he saith when he ascended up on high he led captivity captive which is a king james way of saying setting free and gave gifts unto men now he that ascended what is it but he first also descended into the lower parts of the earth he that descended is the same also that us ended far above the heavens that he might fulfill all things okay so um he led captivity captive what was he doing there well that's where you can jot down first peter uh chapter three where it says what he did when he descended into the lower parts of the earth this is the hades side along with paradise where did jesus tell the thief they were going to be with today paradise is that heaven no that's that's that good side of abraham's bosom where lazarus went and not the rich guy are you with me so when jesus goes down he descends first into this abraham's wisdom place that's got hades and paradise what does he do why is that first peter chapter 3 says by also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison which were sometimes disobedient when once the longsuffering of god waited in the days of noah while the ark was preparing within a uh wherein a few that is eight souls were saved what's that those same demons that we're talking about so there's a specific group of demons that were tucked away in this uh hole uh i believe somewhere that was linked to this hades place now hades is the place where the non-believer would go now you say okay brett so so i'm i'm with you so far but if i die where do i go do you go to paradise why not because christ already led captivity captive or set free those people that were in that side of paradise when he preached there he then ascended and he took all those people with them to what we would and again this is a clumsy term and there's a lot to talk about here but we would traditionally think of as heaven okay are you with me so uh so if you die today as a christian i believe you go to heaven it's that simple uh you say but that's good enough for me well great good for you but if you are interested that's kind of what happened you say okay so if a guy dies today and he's not a christian where do you go i believe it's possible you still go to this place called hades which linked to it is perhaps this place where the deepest of cells or holding tanks were for these uh particularly uh bad demons of noah's day and that's called the abuso so the abuso is the solitary confinement if you would hades is sort of the place that's temporarily what we might traditionally think of as hell but it's not the final really hell uh by the way the word sheol what about sheol sheol is often confused with hell uh because it does sort of use that word in a synonymous kind of way but the idea of shill is more synonymous with the idea of death and the grave so when you die and you're buried that's sheol but uh what's going to happen i'm going to give you a sneak preview go with me to revelation chapter 20. i know we're bouncing all over the place but you got to kind of take these puzzle pieces from the bible and they all kind of fit together and quite perfectly i might add can you see why churches don't do this topic very often because it is a little uh you have to do a little work uh here so it says uh it says here in um chapter 20 this is kind of the end of the great white throne judgment that's where everything's going to come to to be judged by god everything's going to be brought together and what's going to happen well the first thing is it says here in verse 10 revelation chapter 20 verse 10 and the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire greek word gehenna and this is what we think of when we think of hell burning lake of fire eternal destruction okay um and it says the fire and brimstone uh where the beast and the false prophet are we're going to learn who those guys are uh in a few weeks and they shall be tormented day and night forever and ever by the way there's some people who believe that eternal destruction means you'll be thrown in the lake of fire and you'll cease to exist because you'll be destroyed eternally the problem that i have with that is particularly this verse where it says these guys will be thrown into that place and they'll be tormented not just in their death and doing away with but they're going to be sort of eternally destroyed is the idea a destruction just keeps happening it's not a good place for they will be tormented day and night forever and ever it says in verse 11 i saw a great white throne him that sat on it from whose face the earth and heaven fled away and there was found no place for them no place to hide and i saw the dead and the small and the great stand before god and the books were opened another book was opened was the book of life and the dead were judged out of those things the dead sheol is the idea there people that were dead and probably in hades christians will not be at this great white throne judgment we will be with the lord by this time and they'll be judged out of those things which were written in the books according to their works pause for a second oh i shouldn't do this but i it says people say i'm going to go and stand before god and if my good works that way my bad works then i'll be okay the problem is this is what's going to happen your good works are going to be infinitesimal tiny compared to uh your bad works that's it's all going to come down where it's horrible uh and it says verse 3 13 pardon me the sea gave up the dead which were in it and death and hell or death and sheol the idea is death and the grave see the word hells is sort of a clumsy english word talking about different places so death and sheol delivered them up the dead which were in them and they were judged every man according to their works and death and hell or sheol were cast in to the lake of fire this is the second death and whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire uh that that's that's pretty clear what is it all the things that you think of uh whether you're talking about the abuso or hades or sheol or any of that stuff it's all going to come down to the great white throne judgment those who reject god will be collectively taken the books will bear them as guilty and unwilling to be saved by the grace of god unwilling to receive the free gift of salvation through jesus christ and because of that they will be thrown into death and hell where there i believe just like satan and his demons same place where they'll be thrown where they will be eternally tormented day and night forever and ever well if god is love then he wouldn't send people to hell let me just say this god is love and that's why he's inviting you no imploring you begging you to to follow and believe in his son jesus because he says i'm not gonna i would that none should perish jesus tells us in his word it's it's like um you know me having airplane tickets for you and your family hey go to disneyland i want to go to the zoo that sounds like a great plan well here's the tickets i don't want to go through tickets that you bought me well then maybe you need to buy it yourself well i don't have enough money well uh here's some tickets for free i don't want those tickets uh well how are you going to get tickets you really want to go to disneyland yeah we really want more than anything in the world well then here's free tickets i already paid for them they're for you paid the price for you i don't want that i can do it my way guess what you're not going to go to the magical kingdom because you're unwilling to take the tickets that you couldn't afford and that's just dumb right right see and i guess the point is i'm just saying those that say if god is loved then he won't send me now that's just like the person saying i don't want those tickets i don't want the free gift and you know what it's almost easier to be saved to become a christian who's not going to hell than to grab the tickets and go to design do you realize that because you confess with your mouth and you believe in your heart the lord jesus christ that god he died on the cross there and rose from the grave if you confess that if you believe that it says you will be saved it's so simple but it's the hardness of men's hearts we're going to even see that even harder tonight if we get through revelation whew where was i the bottomless pit verse one okay are you with me now verse one the fifth angel sounded i saw a star fall from heaven who could likely be satan and the key was given to him uh to the bottomless pit which is also called the abuso or fancy word yet still tartar sauce yes that's right so you guys are getting it that's great tartarus uh yes and that's good okay making me hungry all of a sudden so you say who gave him the key don't know i don't know who gave him the key it could be in my mind one of two individuals it might be the lord himself who has the keys to the bottomless pit and you say but bro why would god give satan the keys to the bottomless pit yeah but why would god allow satan to mess with job the point is we don't know the the purposes and plans of god but we know that righteous and true are his judgment so if it's god giving the keys to tartar sauce to satan then we know that man that that that's he's got a purpose and a plan and it might be like what i was talking about before where the lord lifts his hand of protection putting those demons in uh you know to the abuso was god's way of saying i do not want you guys crossing that line until the tribulation when the tribulation comes i'm going to let those same demons that cause the giants of men of renown and all the trouble to go all that went down during the time of noah i'm going to allow that to be unleashed during the tribulation period that's the bottom line it's the time i don't want to be there well he's got the keys and guess what he does with it verse 2 and he opened the bottomless pit and there arose a smoke out of it as the smoke of a great furnace this and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit man if you can almost picture these demons who've been tucked away in this place for millennia now satan unlocks it opens it up smoke it comes out and it's like you can tell something really bad is coming because there's a great smoke that keep in mind there's some um that there's a difference between literal uh things and metaphor or simile chapter nine it's i think it's this is something i'm growing in my own personal walk i'm learning to take the book of revelation very literally and unless it uses metaphor or similarly remember you got to kind of be careful with metaphor but similarly gives you the signals doesn't it the red flag of simile is like or as right and so we see that here there are rows of smoke out of a pit as the smoke of a great furnace and the sun in the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the bed we're going to see more of that um tonight as we as we see this and the reason i say that is uh i wonder if some of these things that we've tried to ascribe literal things to or even logical things to these descriptions might not really do service to the text in front of us it might be better just to say man this is stuff we can't really figure out because it's it's it's metaphored simile he's saying it's like this not not is this uh you'll see what i mean as we get further into this but we do know that there's a smoke that arises out of this pit uh smoke by the way in the bible it'd be an interesting study for some of you guys because smoke is often linked to evil but not always just kind of an interesting freebie for you there so the smoke comes out great furnace and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit so what is the smoke um what what is this that's coming out well in verse 3 and there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth and unto them was given power as the scorpions of the earth have power and it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth neither any green thing neither any tree but only those men which have not the seal of god in their foreheads and to them it was given that they should not kill them but that they should be tormented five months and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion when he strikes a man so we've got locusts now time to get out the raid but the problem is i believe these are not uh literally perhaps bugs did you guys see uh locust plagues are still on the earth today do you see that uh back in march um egypt had a huge plague of locusts and and then israel as they started swarming up toward israel israel went into kind of panic and they did all kinds of things but fortunately were able to save the way i understand a lot of their crops but these these locusts uh you know 300 million of them i guess uh were flying around that region of the world so the plagues of egypt are often linked again to these these plagues of the of the tribulation period but i believe we're not to take these as literal bugs but actually there's there's more to these bugs because it was given power as the scorpions of the earth to hurt men uh interestingly enough scorpions don't hurt men they don't land on you and bite you and stuff like that as much as they land on all the green vegetation and grass and all that and eat up anything that's vegetation and then it causes famine in the lands of the middle east and thus it does hurt men through that but these loca locusts have a particular job and uh and they seem to be uh well we're gonna even get a description of these locusts that are kind of it's kind of crazy but but all that to say there is a locust feature to them though does anybody know how long the average life of a locust is any of you entomologists in here 150 days is the average life of a locust which if you do the math how long is that how many months about five months which is interesting because it says in verse five that to them that they should not kill them but they should be tormented for five months so these locusts like real locusts will torment men now one thing to remember the there will be people that will not be affected by these locusts and it's those who have the seal of god in their foreheads remember that's not the people with the mark of the beast in their forehead that's coming later these are the people that we read about earlier that had the seal of god the 144 thousand that we read about in chapter seven remember they were given the seal of god so those hundred and forty four thousand particularly will not be hurt by these locusts so-called now um all that to say uh it says in those days verse six shall men seek death and shall not find it and shall desire to die and death shall flee from them by the way having done a lot of funeral services and memorials and stuff for people who've committed suicide i've done several just this last few uh weeks even months here it's so sad so tragic but i have to say i see something demonic as well uh suicide people wanting to take their lives has a lot to do with demonic stuff i believe including drugs which drug abuse is demonic and i'll show you that even in the scriptures here tonight but all that to say jesus is the answer if you know someone who is wanting to take their own life that is not of god god has a purpose and a plan for every individual when that person can see that god's got them in his hand and realize that he still has a purpose and a plan no matter how bad their life may be god is going to work all things together for good for those who love the lord it's all going to work out truly i'm not just making that up saying it's all going to be all right pat pat pat i'm saying this is literally what god says i will work it all together for good but you got to put your trust in me uh it's demonic that says destroy your body kill yourself uh that that goes against everything god built within human nature to protect yourself instead this is a demonic deal these men will want to die and will seek death but not be able to find it um 70 of suicide attempts are failed by the way uh these people are going to fail 100 of the time what do these locusts look like well verse 7 and the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared into battle when i was a kid we used to use grasshoppers uh for bait because we lived on the applegate river and my buddy kirk taylor and i we built these little grasshopper uh containers and we fill them up and then go fishing and you can catch a fish every time with these grasshoppers once in a while we get one of those big green ones with the big huge heads and those big heads they look like horses in fact their heads at least look like horses but i find that interesting because uh in in history there's some interesting work that has been done on that in fact some of the ancient words for locusts were synonymous like the um the german term is hookford which is hay horse uh the italian is uh cavaletta which means little horse and the reason they called the locust little horses or hay horses because they look like horses so the the imagery fits right here but notice it says like unto uh horses prepared to battle and on their heads verse 7 middle part whereas it were crowns like gold and their faces were as faces of men and they had hair as the hair of women i guess they look like the guys from the 60s and their teeth were as the teeth of lions and they had breastplates as it were the breastplates of iron and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle and they had tails like into scorpions and uh there's there were stings in their tails and their power was to hurt men five months okay brett that's no bug that i've seen uh now this is kind of a crazy description would you agree when you see this now here's where people start to say okay i see an apache helicopter right here i mean think of yourself you know first century or john you're not gonna be able to describe a helicopter if you're go back you know two thousand years and explain on apache well uh there's this big rotor can't say router because nobody knew what a rotor was back in those days oh okay well it's fueled by gasol oh never mind uh there was a machine gun oh wait no see some people say what they see here is a giant well apache helicopter or something like that uh think about it iron uh breastplates men faces of men in there somewhere uh but they had a hair of women i don't know what that has to do with any patch you ever seen their teeth were as lines their wings were the sounds of chariots and many horses running to battle their tails were like scorpions and their stings were in their tails machine guns uh maybe you you say they're apaches here's the thing about that i i wouldn't uh totally mock you some people will mock you for that by the way uh i wouldn't mock you for that but again could it be that these are just literally demonic entities coming out and they're just ugly and nasty looking and there's a similarity to locusts but they're also similar to lion's teeth and men's faces maybe it's going to be something that's a little bit supernatural again i'm finding that just reading the bible saying this is what it's going to look like it's kind of a rewarding thing to say i'm just going to take the bible more literally but brett these are using the words like or as and that's why people try to make modern day linkages to these things it's possible again it's possible but i think that uh the problem with that is who are these locusts they're coming from the abuso not from an air base you see what i'm saying they're coming from the abuso and they're demonic now some people say well they'll be demon-possessed men who are part of this army and there's all kinds of speculation that goes round and round about what these locusts are but here's what we for sure need to go away with they're part of these demons that were locked up in the abuso that were tied up there or chained up there for a long long time and were loosed by satan in the tribulation period it's going to be bad that's the bottom line going to be real bad and i think that these locusts might just be supernatural beings it shouldn't really freak us out too bad or too much i should say uh to really think about uh battles uh that were spiritual and spiritual beings and entities and what have you uh in fact um do you remember there were two demon armies that i can remember in the bible whole armies demon armies uh joel chapter two verses one through nine uh and uh ii peter 3 10 talks about supernatural armies that in fact second kings 211 speaks of horses and chariots of fire that separated elijah and elisha when elijah elijah was taken up in the heaven but maybe even more powerful is that image when dothan was besieged there in second king six do you guys remember the story in second king six verses 13 through 17 we've got this story of eli elijah pardon me elisha's servant remember uh probably was gaheza who eli elijah said lord open his eyes because elijah was surrounded by the syrian armies and elisha wasn't freaked out but the servant was and the lord he says open his eyes and he opened the lords opened his eyes and he sees these horses and chariots of fire of supernatural beings surrounding the syrian army so there's implication in other parts of the bible where there are in fact spiritual supernatural armies sounds crazy but uh could it be the revelation nines just talking about these demonic armies of locusts like beings that have been given power just take it for face value you say why does satan hate us so much why does he want to mess why are demons so against us don't really know the answer to that other than he knows he's going down i'm pretty convinced of that maybe it's the old poolside logic you know remember when your buddies want to push you in the pool uh what do you do if you're going in 10 guys are pushing the pool your goal is to get as many of those guys in with you as you possibly can right some people believe that's it maybe satan knows the heart of a father and wants to hurt god by taking as many much of humanity with him into the gehenna that lake of fire so maybe that's what all this is all about these unl the unloosing of these demonic entities well the destruction is bad these uh these locusts are horrible tales verse 10 to sting like scorpions and for five months hurting men well verse 11 and they had a king over them which is the angel of the bottomless pit whose name is in the hebrew tongue abaddon but in the greek tongue hath his name apollyon one woe is past and behold there comes two more woes hereafter so the name of this angel now here's the here's the question um this angel that falls uh or i should say this angel of the bottomless pit um it says they had a king over them is that satan i don't believe so it says this is the angel of the bottomless pit satan has not been bound in the bottom split that's the problem he's not the angel of the bottomless pit and it seems like we're being introduced to a new character and his name is abaddon or paulion which means both words mean destruction so this angel or fallen angel we know it's a fallen angel is is loosed out and he's the leader of these locusts one reason why we know these aren't literally locusts perhaps is uh proverbs chapter 30 verse 27 tells us that locusts have no king and will not follow after king it's an interesting little proverb there but uh but this guy is a king leading these this army of locusts well verse 13. and the sixth angel sounded and i heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before god question which altar is this before the throne of god alter of incense right we saw that in our previous chapter eight uh where it was the altar of incense where these trumpets were gonna blow okay so we're back to the heavenly senior the sixth angels are blowing we're getting ready to blow in front of the altar which is before the lord by the way for you bible students uh this would remind people of the feast of trumpets and the blowing of trumpets near the altar was something that took place at the feast of trumpets now the feast of trumpets by the way this is just a quick freebie for you bible students maybe to wet your whistle but the feast of trumpets was that ten days before uh yom kippur or the day of atonement does anybody know or does anybody remember what were you supposed to do once the trumpet was blown from the altar of incense uh there uh at the feast of trumpets yes who was it you win richard you get the brownie points for tonight uh he said purify yourself that's right let me read you leviticus chapter 23 it says here in uh in leviticus 23 23 the lord spoke to moses saying to the children of israel in the seventh month of the first day of the month you shall have a sabbath a memorial for blowing of trumpets a holy convocation you shall do no work but you'll offer an offering made by fire to the lord and the lord spake to moses on the tenth day of the seventh month there will be a day of atonement it shall be a holy convocation unto you and you shall afflict your souls and offer an offering made by fire and you should do no work in the same day for the day of atonement for whosoever soul shall not be afflicted in that same day he shall be cut off from among his people the blowing of the trumpet or the feast of trumpet was where it signaled the people where they were to afflict their souls kind of like the psalmist said search my heart oh god see if there be any wicked way in me it's like afflicting your soul saying lord show me areas of sin of my life show me what's wrong about what i'm doing my attitudes my actions and they were to afflict their souls before that day of atonement because on the day of atonement they could have their sins dealt with on the altar which is a picture of the cross of jesus where he deals with our sins and then man uh the the priest would come out after the day of atonement and he'd say your sins are forgiven and then there'd be a huge celebration because the sins were forgiven it's kind of an interesting reference and some see here in revelation chapter 9 that same kind of idea the blowing of a trunk trumpet what's linked to the tribulation period the idea of afflicting one's soul maybe this sixth angel that's sounding his trumpet before the horns of the altar of incense is uh going to cause that same kind of affliction of the soul there are some interesting things there well verse 14 to the sixth angel which have the trumpet loose the four angels which are bound in the great river euphrates interesting uh the river euphrates uh mark it here and maybe take note um the euphrates is significant in the bible for many reasons one it's where the first sin took place uh most believe that the garden of eden was next to the river euphrates and perhaps between the tigris and the euphrates so the original sin took place there began there the first murder took place there genesis chapter 4 verse 8 nimrod remember nimrod uh started to say we will rebel against god genesis chapter 10 and 11. the tower of babel happened at the river euphrates that was the fountainhead of idolatry and of false worship um so it also refers back to the garden of eden or euphrates it refers to the sin beginning there it also interestingly enough uh is the boundary of east uh east uh israel something you're like brett you don't know anything about your geography actually i do and you don't know see because the bible says that israel which belongs that which belongs to the from the lord given to israel is the definition of those boundaries starts with the euphrates river now if you get out a map that includes uh jordan and much of iraq and that's what the bible defines israel that's that's what's interesting by the way uh the eastern boundary of israel is genesis 15 18 talks about that uh deuteronomy 1 7 joshua 1 4 first kings 4 21-24 talks about the eastern boundary of israel as the river euphrates now when solomon was king of israel that was their peak that's when they have the most land in their possession of all the world's history in israel it was during the reign of solomon and he only possessed one tenth of the land that was promised to israel including that region of the euphrates question why hasn't that not happened yet why is not israel possessed all the land well you say because they were lazy well yeah they they didn't possess the land god told them to possess but that's yet to happen i believe when christ comes and rules and reigns from jerusalem the bible says that that israel will be sort of claimed as it was supposed to have been centuries no millennia ago okay so that those boundaries are important it's going to include much of that region but the point is uh this this this verse 14 is telling us that there's this four angels that are going to be loosed out of this place where a lot of horrible dark things have taken place in history so what are these four angels gonna do well it says verse 15 the four angels were loosed which were prepared for an hour and a day uh and um and a month so for an hour and a day and a month and a year uh for to slay the third part of men so basically it's 13 months these uh these angels four angels will be prepared for 13 months to slay the third part of men that's not a good thing one third of men now if you do the math by the way in the fourth seal judgment in revelation 6 you remember the seals the fourth seal judgment we saw the result of one third party one fourth of the earth's population being killed do you remember that now we've got a third of the population of the earth being killed so we're getting over half now and we're not even halfway through the tribulation the reason i point that out is because there are those who say uh the tribulation's not going to really be bad until the abomination of desolation that's when things get bad it's the great tribulation the last three and a half years the first three and a half years aren't going to be that bad that's why we're going to go through that part they say and then we'll be raptured sometime before the middle point of the tribulation i have a problem with that because if you take the the the revelation 6 through 19 and you see the way this tribulation's period unfold already before the abomination of desolation we see more than half of the population of the earth dying uh i don't think that's just a walk in the park that's a bad that's bad news for those inhabitants of the earth i just make that point for those that are pre-wrath or mid-trib view i believe we're going to be taken before the very first day of the tribulation starts we're going to be taken to be with the lord well uh we now you say brett why are they going to prepare for 13 months i don't have any idea anyway verse 16. seriously i i don't know i've never heard anything that's legit and i've heard some crazy stuff but nothing really legitimate so be praying about that verse 16 and the number of the army of the horsemen were 200 000 000 and i heard the number of them uh two hundred thousand thousand is two hundred million um of this of this army two hundred million man army big army and thus i saw the horses in the vision and them that sat on them having breastplates of fire of jacksonith of brimstone and in the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone by these three was the third part of men killed by the fire and by the smoke and by the brimstone which is issued out of their mouths for their power is in their mouth and in their tails for their tails were like unto serpents that had heads and with them they do hurt so you're saying okay brett more crazy this is why we bail on the book of revelation all this crazy descriptions of these things but hey i don't struggle with these things now some people believe this was exciting because when john wrote this there were not even 200 million men on the earth in the first century the population of the earth has been exploding but back then for him to write about a 200 million man army people just that's never gonna happen there's not even that many people alive um it was uh interesting because some bible prophecy buffs got all excited back in 1961. the reason radio p king which is now beijing but radio p king announced that it had enough uh uniforms and um weapons to outfit a 200 million man army uh and that made everybody go whoa and it's coming from the east in fact look at chapter 19 real fast i'm sorry chapter 16. because we got the same river euphrates being talked about and it says in chapter 16 verse 12 and the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river euphrates and the water was dried up that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared um and then we see these frogs come out uh you say okay brett this is going to be really exciting frogs kings of the east what's going on so some people make a link between revelation 16 verse 12 the euphrates river kings of the east with this army that's going to come out by these angels coming out of the the river euphrates you see the correlation there and that's why some people say it could be a chinese army coming to the middle east wreaking havoc and you know i wouldn't i wouldn't go against that that theory really other than this again i see imagery here that i don't see the chinese doing that they're going to have the power to kill men with fire and brimstone that's a very god kind of thing or supernatural kind of thing and they were power was in their mouth tails were like serpent's heads and stuff like that i believe these very well could be like the previous discussion uh with the apache helicopters maybe maybe not uh but if you're if you like trying to correlate these descriptions to modern day things more power to you people think you're crazy but that's okay uh if you like to think of these things as maybe just supernatural beings uh that's okay too and it's for you to kind of pray about and search through the scriptures but hopefully we'll not be here to see this amen well quickly let's finish this up and the rest of the men which were not killed verse 20 by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands there will be some who will repent by the way but some will not can you believe that all this stuff coming down more than half of the people on the planet dead and there's people who will still be unwilling to repent some of you perhaps know people who are unwilling to repent and they're that hardhearted toward the lord do you know people like that don't care what happens to them they're gonna have to what are they gonna have to go through to see the lord to to repent and turn to god but there's some people are just that heart-hearted and that's the way these people will be they repent not of the works of their hands that they should not worship devils idols of gold and silver and brass and stone and wood which can neither see nor hear nor walk brett we don't worship idols anymore who wears subtitles oh we do they just may not be silver and gold and brass they might be rubber chrome steel or uh sheetrock uh you know composite uh materials uh and concrete and rebar and studs we have our own things we worship uh prosperity and stuff like that comes out in different forms but these people are gonna be so into their stuff and the things that they worship which the bible says there's no real power in the things themselves eyes have they but they see not the psalmist declared ears have they but they hear not noses have they but they smell not but there is a power behind them and i believe it's a demonic power that these people are going to be linked to and unwilling to repent because of so they will verse 21 neither repent they of their murderers murders nor of their sorceries nor of their fornication nor of their thefts interesting here by the way some of this language you should know the sorceries the word there is literally pharmakia the word sorcery is pharmakia where we get our word pharmacy which i think is interesting could it be that the world in the tribulation is going to be so many people on on drugs of some kind could that even be possible that the world be on drugs uh and unwilling to let go of those things you know it's funny i get no more flack from listeners of our radio program no more flack even from here in the congregation or from ustream than this single topic of um of drug abuse as i call it which is not just heroin smoking weed or doing meth or any of that stuff i think that perhaps when we get to heaven we're going to be shocked at how some of these medicines that we're on prescribed even by our doctors i'm not saying all don't go home and flush down your uh you know your serotonin altering level drugs that you take don't do that that's irresponsible and not smart but it's not just me it's it's much of the secular world is saying way too many people are on drugs way too many and uh we just we prescribe it like candy for kids and we wonder uh about our society and all the things that go on and i'm not gonna get into this tonight and we've gotten into this before but i would just say man as as christians i think that's something we should be aware of i think there is perhaps demonic influence in some drug abuse and taking now again not all if you have gone to your doctor and he says you should take this here's what you do it's real simple pray about it seek ye first the kingdom of god and his righteousness and then all these other things they'll be added unto you but if you can look yourself in the mirror in the morning and say i have sought the lord i have prayed and the lord has given me um good peace about taking these drugs that my doctor is recommending and i've got good people around me that are confirming that this is what you need to do uh then i believe you can take that with good conscience and the lord uses medicine i believe that but at the same time don't just mindlessly take these drugs doctors i think there's a lot of guilty doctors who just say man i can make this patient go away if i can get him out of my office so take this drug and there you are i'll comatose in your house wondering why nothing matters anymore that's the truth of the matter and by the way um the the suicides that i mentioned um virtually all of the suicide funerals i've ever done have been linked to these kinds of medications some people say that was why they were on them because they were suicidal but obviously they either a didn't work or b numb to the person so much to where they somehow convinced themselves that taking their life was a viable option and that's sadly the common thread that i see so you got sorcery pharmakia these people will be clinging to that and then fornication the greek word for that is pornea which is where we get our idea of sexual immorality and and pornography and what have you uh and also thefts and we can talk about thieving not just the guy that robs you know the 7-eleven but the corporations that rob from people that are less fortunate and you talk about some of that some of the wrong that's going on in the corporate even levels but all this stuff people are going to hang on to and cling to and say we reject god and they'll want to die because all this stuff but they won't be able to does anybody want to be here during this time the tribulation man i sure don't want to be the way you don't go to the tribulation i believe is very simple you believe in jesus that he died on the cross that he rose from the grave confess that with your mouth believe it in your heart and you will be saved and like jesus said in in luke's gospel pray that you be counted worthy to escape all of these things and the only way a person can be worthy by the way is not by being good but being worthy because you're covered by the blood of jesus robed in his righteousness man i'm so thankful when i read the book of revelation it makes me really glad i'm saved amen amen lord as we are glad for your salvation that you've given us our hearts break because there are people in this world who don't know the love that you're offering the free tickets that you're giving so willingly so graciously the the free salvation that you offer and i pray lord that instead of being like these tribulation inhabiters of the earth who reject you and want to die but aren't able to and cling to their fornication and their sorcery or their pharmakia as it is the theft and all that stuff that they're clinging to lord i pray that we would let go of our sins and turn our lives over to you for we find in you as peace and love and joy we find salvation and just the perfect work of the cross so instead of just knowing a little bit more about the tribulation period and about the abuso and hell and sheol and all that stuff i pray that we'd be more about leading others to your good news the gospel of jesus that others might be saved light a fire under us teach us how to spread the word without being weird or un necessarily offensive but lord i pray that we'd be able to be effective in the spreading of the good news help us lord in jesus name amen
