praise you're welcome here jesus praise the lord you may be seated that song was written by a gospel great daddy rambo she was actually in in the soviet union at the time [Music] where she was not allowed to preach the gospel to sing about the name of jesus and it was at that time when they told her that she was not allowed it was a governmental thing not allowed to preach or speak about the name of jesus and she looked at all the walls and the bars and all the things that were hindering and she said you may not be welcome here but she pointed at herself she said but you're welcome in this place and a lot of times when we hear that song we like to think that god you're welcome in this church building but what she actually wrote about it and she said it was this place that i was talking about because i'm glad that god is here because where two or more gathered in his name there he is in the midst but i know about you but i'm just not satisfied with god being in the midst i want him in my life to for him to live and move and have his being in my life amen so i can say holy spirit thou art welcome in this [Music] holy spirit thou art wow come on me this blessed [Music]

i've been loose i've been set free so [Music] free the holy ghost for the joy of the holy ghost [Music] [Applause] [Music] hallelujah do i have any free people here tonight hallelujah there's some people in this house that are staring at these living testimonies up here up front because you're looking at testimonies of people who have been set free you know what happened you know how we got here because we were obedient to the son of god there was one day he asked for our lives there was one day he asked for our hearts and if you want to be a free people all that causes you to be obedient to the spirit of god one day we had to step out one day we had to put the grave toes down one day we had to set down the prison garment [Music] one day i was bound in sin one day i was bound to this world one day i had daddy issues one day i was drinking i was partying i was wearing any kind of clothes that i wanted but i found something better i found something better i found something better you want something biblical there was a king named jehoiachin who was taken captive by the babylonians and he was in prison for years for years until a king came and he said this is your day that you're going to be set free so he said i want you to come i want you to throw off your brick and garments and i want you to piss it at the king's table and i want you to eat with me so what did jehoiachin do he took off somebody prophetically take off your prison garments somebody sat down your grave clothes and i want you if you've never stepped out of prison before i want you to do this with me i want you to take a step out of prison i want you to rise up out of the grave and i want you to walk raise your hands and freedom why because he who the sun sets free is free indeed and i'm walking in freedom you're looking at a free woman you're looking at a woman with purpose a woman with power and a child of god amen hallelujah if he walked out of the grave i'm walking to if he walked out of the grave i'm walking too come on now and he walked out of the grave i'm walking too lord if you walk yes he did if you walk down one more time if you walk out of the grave i'm walking through gonna hold my body down there ain't no crazy we're gonna hold my body down [Music] [Applause] oh when i hear that trump is [Music] gonna hold my body [Music] down [Music] hallelujah thank you jamie let's give him praise come on let's give him praise let's open up hallelujah it seems like that the spirit of god through music and worship tonight is uh trying to get a message across trying to tell us that the presence of the lord is here that he set me free yes he set me free he that the spirit has made free is free indeed hallelujah thank you jesus you can be seated in the presence of the lord but let's just we honor you lord we love you [Music] hallelujah [Music] hallelujah [Music] [Music] oh [Music] you may be here [Music] [Music] won't just look up to my jesus i know jesus [Music] is standing there [Music] you say lord god i know you're worthy all you got to do is go [Music] go away somewhere and pray [Music] i went away i went away one day to pray [Music] oh i went away i went away to pray one day to pray i was wondering so brokenhearted i was bound down beneath the waves i went away [Applause] oh i went away one day to pray [Music] you've questioned in your mind when i come into the sanctuary i feel this heaviness lift i feel this unworthiness and the guilt of my past lift but when i'm alone i still experience the condemnation of the vile evil one that speaks to my mind and says you will never be what you were you will never have what you had oh child of sincerity hear the tender instruction from the holy ghost go to me in your secret chamber of prayer lay this feeling this feeling of self-rejection lay it at the foot of my cross holiday old cold shine and stay at the foot of my cross till you see a vision of the atoning blood that was shed for your faults your failures and the things that the enemy points and says you're unworthy for in the presence of the lord in the multitude of people you will feel this wonderful liberty and freedom but it's only through the revelation of my dripping blood from the cross that you will be able to face the enemy and point your finger and say at this moment there is no condemnation hear what the holy ghost is speaking take these words receive these words and the latter end shall be greater than the beginning o bless his name forevermore hallelujah [Applause] oh bless his name forevermore bless his name forevermore you never know what direction the spirit of god's going to take us in i'm going to uh welcome i forgot to do this this morning brother scotty kilburn we're so glad to have you from down in brethren county originally but he pastored clay county for a while and we're just so glad to have you with us we're operating under the rules of the pandemic 40 of our seats are not in here we've had this our fourth service today we're trying our best to accommodate but i do thank the lord because the the uh it seems like the voices of this unknown world that tell us that the pandemic was coming when it was going to get bad it was going to be bad around november the first tuesday in november it'd be bad and it was going to be bad around the inauguration and then this uh this voice is telling us that by march this pandemic is going to become it's going to weaken and be like the common cold oh that's such good news to hear but until then there's going to be special things perhaps we'll need to wear and maybe some things we might have to do but until this thing's over we just can't sit around and watch time go by we've been called to bring in the harvest and we had i preached it three times today and i i do declare that the third time i preached at the holy ghost moved i'm just as strong or stronger on the third one i didn't allow myself to go wild as i wanted i felt it coming though somebody said what does that mean i had to put the restraints because i'm 60 you'll be 60. i'm i'm getting regular medicare 65 years old but um i sort of held back so i'd have strength for tonight we want to welcome so much do we have any other pastors jason here's pastor solid rock south are there any more pastors that are here tonight anybody all right that's nothing but air going

partnered with 25 a month to help us pay off this building to help us carry the gospel around the world and to keep us on christian television and if i don't mention an address that's cause it hasn't

partners a wonderful welcome and let's welcome the other 46 000 that are watching right now all around the world [Applause] hallelujah let's all stand together i was going to have some testimonies but time has swept slipped away and i was going to ask i was going to ask kenzie and i thought no i should have whispered in her ear before church and the lord got to hold her and i didn't have to ask her she just went right into this and we thank you so much for uh jamie how she blessed us and all the singing you know when i came in here at nine o'clock this morning i asked myself where in the tri-state can you hear this much energy this much talent this much power at nine o'clock in the morning and the same thing at 10 45 and the same thing at 12 30. it never lightened and here we are at six o'clock again still got the energy still got the dynamics of the power of god and i praise him for it in the book of revelation chapter 17 we're going to have to read let's start with verse three we'll go three through six no let's start with verse one and there came one of the seven angels with had seven vials and talked with me saying unto me come here and i'm going to show you the judgment of the great that sits upon many waters with whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication the inhabitants of the earth have made drunk with the wine of her fornication so he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness and i saw a woman sitting up on a skull a scarlet colored beast full of the names of blasphemy having seven heads and ten horns and the woman was clothed in purple and scarlet decked with gold and precious stones and pearls and she had a golden cup in her hand full of the abominations and filthiness of her fornication amp on her forehead was written a name a name written mystery babylon the great mother of harlots and the abominations of the earth and i saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints and the blood of the martyrs of jesus and when i saw her i wondered with great amazement just for a few moments i'm gonna i need the holy ghost to help me uh this thing has been rolling in me for several days and i've i've got the ipad here to bring me up some things i might need to read and i don't even know sometimes how to turn it on but i think i practiced enough to get that part going and i need the holy ghost to help me because the message tonight is more vicious than the beast more vicious than the beast so let's pray father we come to you in the name of jesus i humble myself before you i stand in desperate need god with so many young people in this house many of our senior saints and our weathered and seasoned saints can't get out because of the ice and the snow and the pandemic but god we have a lot of young people here with energy with desire with passion with a calling and with an anointing and help your servant to open up the scripture to teach us the way that we should conduct ourselves in these days let me preach this word with love mercy compassion and like your scripture says preach the word with demonstration and power of the holy ghost and we give you all the praise in jesus name let the church say amen you may be seated just for a few moments tonight and i need the spirit of god to help me in such a way i'd like to deal with the subject more vicious than the beast our scriptures found in revelation chapter 18 it gives a picture of this beast with seven heads and ten horns we know these to be kingdoms we know these to be nationalities nationalities and groups of nationalities these heads could eventually be the north american continent could be the european common market could be australia could be the asian area seven areas of the world and then they're connected to ten nationalities of great power and great strength this beast is none other than the spirit of the global antichrist that is setting up even now nations are coming in alignment now don't be disturbed child of god this is not the great tribulation this is the day that mercy's door is wide open this is the time of the harvest this is the 11th hour when the holy ghost is speaking saying i don't want you standing idle in the marketplace during the harvest god is speaking to the church he's knocking on the door of his church and i'm not going to re-preach what i preached this morning he's knocking on the door of his church he said i don't want you standing idle it's the 11th hour the harvest is bountiful the harvest is plenteous i want you to gather in the souls of men and women while there is still an open door of opportunity but while we are doing what we're supposed to be doing there is the alignment of nations there is the global network of power coming together all of this is all in the scripture it must come but this is our opportunity to shine the brightest light that we have ever shined in a day of darkness upon the earth and gross darkness upon the people but as we look at this the beast is the antichrist the woman on the beast is called the false prophet because she has become a mixture of religions we've just heard in the 117th 117th congress the prayer was made in our national government after the prayer was made it said and we ask these things in the name of the monotheistic god brahma that's a hindu god which means the all-inclusive god the next part of it says brahma who has many names and many faces this is the spirit of the woman some people would say is the woman on the beast the roman catholic church no is the woman on the beast a charismatic fellowship no the woman on the beast represents the spirit of the false prophet and the woman is a spiritual a spiritual stronghold that's coming to this earth the spirit of the woman is in this house maybe not right now but i've seen the spirit of the woman rise her head up many times but she's not welcome here and she resists the bride of christ she's under restraint here but that does not keep the spirit of the harlot the mother of from walking in this sanctuary playing with your mind playing with your experience causing you to doubt causing you to look and say what the world makes that woman jump two feet off the ground and shake that blonde hair i don't think that's necessary that's the spirit of the brothers and sisters that's the spirit of the false prophet that all this devotion and dedication and commitment and sanctification and covered by the blood is not necessary because this monotheistic god brahma has many faces and many names that takes jesus christ and making him only a name and a face among all the religions of the world and in these last days there will be a mixture that's part of this system this harlot system they will be catholic some will speak in tongues you didn't know that some will be islamic somebody said well the islam will never do that oh yeah there's going to be liberal islam it's going to join right in it's going to be a collective move there's going to be those of hindu don't have a problem with it because they believe in millions of gods in the first place so what makes any difference is adding another one that's the facts on that buddha's philosophical they don't care they'll come right in scientology will join right in and high five the woman on the beast the great they'll all come together but we need to understand that god has always had a people god has always had his covenant bride god's always had a people that have not bowed down and kissed bale's feet that have not offered their children in the arms of ashtaroth or kimash that have not gone the ways of disobedience but there is a people that is known by his name that's been covered by the precious blood of jesus that has their names written in the lamb's book of life and i guarantee you one thing that when the trump of god sounds and the dead in christ rise those that have not taken the mark and those that know his name and those that are covered by the blood are going to be caught up in the air gravity cannot hold you gravity cannot hold you there is no power on this earth that can keep you concealed and confined to this earth's global system when the trumpet sounds you're going to leave here and you're not going to look at buddha you're not going to look at allah you're not going to look at mohammed and you're not going to look at 2 million gods that has a million faces or lots of names you're going to see one lord one faith one baptism one god one lord one savior one king the king of kings and lord of lords god will always have a people [Applause] when the church came out of the upper room on the day of pentecost within 33 years they turned the world upside down 33 19 i mean in the year 33 they turned the world upside down they went all the way they left that upper room and went all the way to great britain they went all the way to india that's where thomas was speared with a pagan spear and the state that he was speared in one of the states of india is called kerala kerala is the only christian state in the country of india i personally was invited to speak for the cara like christians of india they dress in their indian clothing they marry among themselves they're very indian but they had this pentecostal preacher from the hills of kentucky to come to atlanta to speak at their at one of their great conferences where they came together 25 000 of them came together i also spoke at another conference in texas of the carolite nation of end of the state of india i'm telling you that they turned the world upside down all the way into china all the way into india all the way up into great britain as a matter of fact in march we will many people will celebrate saint patrick's day that is not a catholic holiday the catholic church did not come and build any churches until the 700s but before they ever arrived in the year 300 there were already over 400 churches that were built and they were built under the under the message that came out of the upper room and they went from england over to ireland and the young man by the name of patrick he is the one that took the gospel to ireland he was in england he was captured they were going to murder him he escaped went back to england and when he got to england the young man cried he said how can i enjoy my freedom when the irish know nothing about jesus he took a boat went to ireland they said what are you doing back you were scheduled to be murdered you were scheduled to be exiled you were scheduled to be uh exterminated to be killed what are you doing coming back he said how can i a man sleep at night knowing that my sister nation does know nothing about the lord jesus christ and when he preached on the shores of the country of ireland they all knelt down and received jesus and over 400 churches were built in the year 300. i'm telling you what came out of that upper room is what turned the world upside down and if you're gonna win the loss of if you're gonna have the power of god we need to go back to the upper room and say god give us what the early church had to where we can look the devil in the eye and say silver and gold have i none but what i have i give unto thee in the name of jesus it's got to be more than a patty cake religion church it's got to be more than an entertaining church it's got to be more than a showcase cinema church it's got to be a church that's filled with jesus that's filled with god that's filled with the holy ghost that walks in the power of the anointing that shakes hell and sets the captive free give the lord a [Applause] praise hallelujah so something happens in the year 312 constantine the emperor 51 of his empire christians illegally they tried to burn them at the stake that didn't work they put animal skins on them nero tried everything diocletian tried everything they couldn't burn them out their blood every they said in the the history records wherever the blood of the christians dropped thousands were reproduced it was like seed there was no way to stop it there was no way to contain it constantine in a battle saw a vision of the cross and he said well could it be that the cross has conquered me that was 312. the year 312. so by the year of 325 constantine had the first council of churches called nicaea there were 1500 that were represented in the first council of churches now remember god's always had a people 51 of the roman empire had already been saved filled with the holy ghost speak in the name of jesus laying hands on the sick casting out devils everywhere they went they were doing the works of christ they were confirming the word with signs and wonders but now constantine in 325 he said well the roman empire has been conquered so what i'm going to do is i'm going to give you basilicas a basilica was a government place of building it was built with columns huge beautiful buildings i'm going to give you basil in every roman town was a basilica he said i'm going to change the basilica and we're going to call him a church and this is going to be where the church meets and he said you that are preachers and you that carry the gospel you're not going to look like those down-home preachers anymore he said you can't you you can't be wearing simple clothes and look like everybody else you can't look like that i'm going to put royal vestures on you and i know you're not used to it but welcome to the roman empire you conquered us so what we're going to do is we're going to make these buildings elaborate we're going to cause the preacher to stand on a marble platform we're going to cover the basilicas with gold and with silver we're going to stream them with precious jewels constantine said we gotta make it attractive you holy rollers are weird you're gonna have to cool it if you're going to win the roman empire you've got to put some class in it no more this hacking when you're preaching no more this run in the aisles when you're preaching no more that shoulder shaking in the head banging and shun die no more of that you think i'm playing with you don't you i want you to stand we're going to teach you how to speak we're going to teach you how to speak eloquently we're going to teach you how to present this message of jesus in such a wonderful palatable way it's going to be so delicious that everyone in the roman empire is going to want it have you heard that message this have you recently heard that kind of message you got to make the gospel palatable it's got to be delicious so once the basilicas were turned into churches and once the man of god had lost his power and lost his shout lost his anointing lost his shoulder shaking once he got out of his work boots and his street clothes and put on one of those one of those fancy garments that covered him from head to toe and once he began to speak eloquently all at once they came by the thousands by the thousands and when they came by the thousands of they were not regenerated they were not born again all they did was sprinkle them with water and by an act of water baptism they took them into church they were baptized but never born again and we're seeing that same thing happening right now we're seeing people getting baptized and saying i belong to jesus i've still got a joint in one hand still living with their significant other they're still living in adultery they're still watching the same filthy movies they're still wearing the same vulgar clothing they're still talking in the same vulgar manner they've never been to calvary stream they've never been to the crucified cross they've never really had an experience of where the blood of jesus cleanses you from all unrighteousness and write your name in the lamb's book of life but that don't change god cause somewhere back in the woods there was still a group of people that were lifting up their hands clapping their hands shouting before god shaking under the power of god and speaking with other tongues do you hear me i said god's always had a people they've not always been in the car to the cathedral they've not always had pipe organs they've not always had chandeliers but one thing they did have that is the power of jesus name and the power of the holy ghost and i want hell to know we're still here [Applause] go ahead shout let the devil know you're still here [Applause] oh yeah so from 325 to 606 when pope bonafast iii was crowned the universal bishop and the vicar of christ he became the christ on earth that's when the dark ages began that's when the word got locked up in the cathedral that's when the bible was taken out of the hands of the people because they didn't want anybody to disturb this harlot system i'm not talking about the roman catholic church i'm talking about a system they just happened to be the church at that time the system the system when you get to the book of revelations he talks to the book of pergamos and he said pergamos i got i got something against you you've got two very wrong doctrines the first one is the doctrine of balaam and balaam was the one that couldn't curse the people of god so he said if you go over these moabite feasts and get down in their shindigs and their hoot nannies and their clubs and you go out and do the things that they do they'll curse themselves it won't be long they'll curse themselves get them in that theater let them watch people naked across that big screen they'll curse themselves yeah you get them in these places the doctrine of balaam and the second one was the doctrine of the nico laetins nico meaning clergy on the marble platform with the beautiful vestures and laity the powerless people in the pew it was oh shia mori kinder it was the spirit of the great to take the power out of the pew to take the power of the name of jesus away from you it is the spirit of the false prophet satan don't want you rising up at three o'clock in the morning when your baby's got a fever and saying in the name of jesus i curse this vile spirit of infirmity off of my child satan owns you walking through the house with your bible saying by his stripes i am healed satan don't want you opening up the bible and saying he that the spirit has made free is free indeed oh yeah the spirit of the false prophet does not you does not want you having power and as far as satan is concerned he could care less if tommy bates shakes and shouts and runs all over the place as long as you don't have any power and you're deader than a door nail but i'm here to tell you you don't need me all you need is jesus i'm only a vocal voice you know what i'm here for i'm not here to show you how great i am i'm not here to say you can't live without me i'm not here to tell you if you want my blessing line up give me a thousand bucks and i'll blow on you and you're gonna get it we've had enough of that garbage oh no no no i'm not here to tell you you have to have my books you've got to have my magazine you've got to have my anointing you've got to have my power no no no i'm here to tell you the same spirit that raised jesus from the dead that dwells in me dwells in you you've got the power you've got the anointing you have the victory that overcomes the world even our faith say i've got it i've got it i've got it oh i've got it do you really have it i said do you really have it [Music] these meetings have all fell in through all these meetings where that where the people got up and say in a crowd like this they say there are 500 of you gonna give me a thousand dollars that's 500 000 and you're gonna get my anointing you're gonna get my anointed oh you're gonna get my anointing i don't want their anointing i heard them tell lies they say if you get here and give me a thousand bucks you're living in the project right now see if you can borrow you text somebody see if you can borrow 500 because when i get done praying with you you're going to own the pro the projects this time next year that's a big lie anybody gets money don't want to buy the projects they want to go out of town somewhere and get them a house with a swimming pool they don't want to buy no projects that's nothing but a bunch of baloney and the church is put up with it because the doctrine of the liquid nicolaitanes wants them what's the person in the pulpit to look like god himself and to make the pew look like you don't have enough power to get over a habit but i'm here to tell you you've got it you've got it you've got it [Music] you've got the power to try the devil out you've got the power to shake the world you've got the power to see signs and wonders you've got the power you've got the power you've got the power in jesus day [Music] oh yeah [Music] so from 325 to 600 or from six 500 to a thousand the year 1000 is called the dark ages because the bible was locked up they wanted the people powerless you take your bible out of your hand you're already powerless you got more time for netflix and you do the word of god you're already powerless [Applause] yeah yeah oh jesus by the time you got to the 1100s the eucharist had become transubstantiation which was a pagan ritual they used to to the altars of baal they would take wheat cakes and mix bull's blood serve it to the people and they said it becomes the gods so they took the same doctrine it was during this time in the year 1000 that the universal bishop who was in place he said we're not we can't believe that old-fashioned doctrine that jesus is coming jesus is coming it's been 1 000 years he hasn't come yet we must intellectually interpret the word of god so since the vicar of christ is christ on earth then the church must be christ on earth so this must be post-millennial reign meaning this we the church are going to bring a thousand years of peace so the only thing we need to do is conquer conquer conquer don't get people saved just conquer don't get people born again just conquer oh you better take heed tonight anytime that spirit gets a hold of you that wants to conquer conquer conquer without regeneration you have stepped into error you stepped into error because you know what goes along with that conquering replacement theology that's exactly what happened replacement theology meaning god is no longer want the jews the jews are out of the question the church has replaced the jews so there's no need for jewish people they serve their purpose to give us the old covenant that's all they were supposed to do be gone with them so pope innocent iii he signed a proclamation it's called the inquisition but you know what he signed it for it wasn't for the jews that wasn't who they were afraid of they weren't afraid of the jews brothers and sisters they was afraid of the blood bought the church the redeemed because in the middle of all of this there was still a hole in this church there was still a spirit-filled church there were still people that believed it just like it said there were still people that only had a handful of scriptures but they believed every word of them they said i believe on the lord jesus christ as my personal savior they believed it they believed it they believed it as a matter of fact their names were first called albagencies there were so many of them they called them the owl begencies and that's why the pope had had a uh order made called the inquisition he said there's something we got to do since we are christ on earth now some of you don't get offended if you think i'm here to preach against catholic church everything i'm saying is history you can go to northern kentucky university you can get it all out of a history book this is nothing but history it says everything is history i heard it for the first time when i was 18 years old i never heard it in my life i never heard anything about it but this inquisition was against the albigenses and the albigenses were people that believed in the inerrant eternal word of god they believed that jesus was the christ the son of the living god they were born again not of corruptible seed but of incorruptible by the word of god and the pope said we're never going to conquer the earth as long as these hand-clapping hallelujah shouting people exist in the kingdom their heretics we must remove them so when he signed the paper they begin to murder them they begin to murder first of all the wall densities that was the first ones after they murdered them then they tried to murder and just extinguish the albigenses and then when it came time following them after this in the 1400s now somebody said what about the spanish inquisition i just read more about it you know what the spanish inquisition was to get rid of the jews but that wasn't the real reason the first ones they wanted to get out get rid of were the conversals the conventions you know who the conveyor souls were the people that had been converted and changed the people that found jesus as their lord and savior it was the conveyor souls you know why they wanted to get rid of them because they said hold it right here god is married to the jew he's coming back to jerusalem he's going to put his foot on the mount of olives the church is not going to bring a thousand years of peace i am watching for the coming of the glad millennial day i'm looking for jesus christ to come and split the eastern skies up and because of that they were murdered they were tortured and they were exiled from every nation in israel do you hear me there's a price paid to be for where you are somebody paid a price in order to give you the bible that's in your hand in order to put a microphone in my hand and me to be able to preach the blood has been shed i said people have died women have been raped and murdered just to give you a seat to sit in the least you can do is lift your hands while you've got an opportunity and give god the glory and give god the praise this is the last days and i see a triumphant church that cannot be destroyed [Applause] we praise you i said we praise you come on give him praise give him praise they tried to kill out the waldenses they tried to kill out the albigenses the spanish inquisition murdered the span the jews lived in spain for a thousand years they made spain rich but they promised them freedom in morocco put them on ships they paid a lot of money to get on ships to go to morocco for freedom but most of those ships never made it when they got in the middle of the mediterranean sea they took the jews women children men boys dumped their bodies in the mediterranean sea that is the facts you hear me that was from the inquisition i want to i'm telling you this because i want you when you read about this woman that drinks of the blood of the martyrs in the last days as far as i read she's not going to be killing anybody but you got to remember she's the same woman there may be some she'll kill but as a whole it's not going to be a massive thing of that sort she's the same woman the same woman that wants to make you powerless that wants to turn your churches into entertainment centers and showcase cinemas the same one that wants to dilute the word of god to where it's nothing and you have to read out of a magazine the same woman that turns the lord's supper into a time of fellowship when you sing secular music on the on on the platform and you're up there singing secular music and be bopping and talking about your golf game while you're popping down the leaven the unleavened bread and drinking the juice as you're taking the lord's supper oh god help us it's the same woman on the beast the same woman she has no regard for your life she has no regard for this holy ghost tongue talking church and i met her face to face december 31st 2005 i met her in this church while i was praying and in deep intercession it so shook me it shook me until i went to my office and for two hours i had to put cold rags on my face because i cried as if my sons had been killed in a car wreck i can't describe the grief when i looked into that woman on the beast's face i never told it to anybody but four days later pastor parsley called me from world harvest his church was the boominess most powerful church he said i had benny hen the year before and i had i had benny hen and then i had t.d jakes up the year before that but he said i was in prayer and god said that tommy bates has a word that's going to transform this church in this ministry he didn't know about it he didn't know about the vision but the holy ghost said go and confirm the word i thought he meant confirmed the bible but he meant confirm the vision that you saw the woman on the beast when i told it at world harvest church they fell to their feet you could hear them scream and cry could you brenda on that sunday morning there was such weeping and wailing up the same spirit that i felt in that office when i had to put cold washcloths on my face cause my eyes had nearly swollen shut it fell on that church and for six months all nine gifts of the spirit were in operation and they were confirming the word what word beware america beware church the antichrist is coming but the antichrist is not coming alone there's a false prophet going to ride on that antichrist and that false prophet hates you it despises you it wants you murdered but thanks be to god no power can touch us we are covered by the protection oh of the blood of jesus i want to give you just a little illustration following the out walled incidents the albigenses and i've been to paris france and i've seen i've stood there we're ten thousand we call them huge knots but that's not how you say it in french i believe it's huge the huguenot this was the church triumphant again there was 2 million of them now in france in 1572. they had built 200 churches they didn't allow pictures in the churches didn't allow statues they were plain walls they didn't have no fancy gestures for people to wear because they taught when you come through the blood everyone has access it was on the 22nd day of august 1572 that this diabolical wicked act of brutality commenced what happened the soldiers were appointed to a certain signal to burst out instantly to the slaughter in all parts of the city when they killed the admiral they threw him out as the window into the street where his head was cut off the head was sent to the pope the savage priest still raging against him cut his arms off then cut off his private members and then drug him three days through the streets they hung him by the heels without the city they slew as many great and honorable anyone that was called the huguenot anyone that was identified of these people and the number ranked 10 000 that day the bodies were thrown into the rivers the blood ran through the streets and through the strong current the river presented itself as a stream of blood so furious was their hellish rage that they slew anyone they suspected of this diabolical religion at orleans a thousand of them were slain women children there were six thousand it ruined at mel deep there were 200 put in prison then brought out and were cruelly murdered at lions 800 were massacred children were hanging by their parents parents were effectually embracing their children where the swords and bloodthirsty minds of those had come to murder 300 were slain in one house and they suffered none of them to be buried it goes on to talk about it says very few of these huguenots huguenot escape the fury of the enthusiastic persecutors very few escaped many of the wretched victims fled to the waterside and they swam across the sane river to the suburbs of germany the king saw them from his wind and looked upon the river and fired and he began to fire the queen's mother undisturbed in the midst of slaughter looking down from the balcony encouraged the murders and laughed at the dying and the groans of the slaughtered some days after this horrid transit action they kept on going the massacres continued the young were butchered this horrid butchery was not confined merely to the city of paris the like orders were issued from the governed apprentice and the provinces of france so then a week's time 100 000 blood bought redeemed you hear me tonight when i read you that scripture the woman on the beast had a golden goblet and in that was the blood of the saints and of the martyrs there was 100 000 that were cut in pieces there were those that were they would take the women and they would molest them they would do all manners of evil then take a spear and thrust them through defiling the women then murdering them the outrages lasted for days days upon days in turin they came they took a young man they listed his name and he was beaten with clubs stripped of his clothes hung with his feet upwards his head and his breast in the river before he was dead they opened his belly plucked out his entrails threw them into the river somebody said oh i'm glad that we don't have those heathen practices all you got to do is go 1940s into germany and it's even more vile than this they took pentecostals among jews they took tongue talking pentecostals that was what the first concentration camp was for did you know that i didn't know it till a southern baptist preacher dr ron phillips told me he went to the concentration camp and they said the first one was built for the radical christians many of them spirit filled and it was built for them because they said if we don't get rid of these radical christians we're never going to be able to get rid of the jews because they keep hiding the jews they keep on protecting the jews you can't do anything with them their mind is made up that jesus christ is coming back on the mount of olives he's coming back in jerusalem their mind is made up that israel is going to be a nation again their mind is made up that the holy ghost is going to fall on this earth and there's nothing we can do with them up oh lord help us i said help us following this satan this bartholomew massacre there then came the anabaptist stuff and they were murdered the same way and what were they murdered for because the word anabaptist means baptized again and then after the anabaptists were the where the mennonites and the amish and all of the various groups they were all murdered but you know what in 1776 when they heard there was a place called america it's a place where the quaker can go it's a place where the mennonite can go it's a place where the amish can go it's a place where the huguenot can go it's a place where the albigense can go it's a place where the wall density can go up and satan despises this nation and satan despises this country because you've sung all night he broke the shackles off of my hands he took the grave clothes off of me he set me free yes he set me free i want you to know you're in the greatest nation of the world the united states of america and the united states is great because there is a people that live in this nation it's not democrats that make us great it's not republicans that make us great it's not presidents that make us great it's not economy that makes us great but it is the spirit of the living god and the word of god that has come to this land for the preparation and the preparation of the gospel of peace if you're thankful that you're in this freedom tonight and nobody's challenging you over your faith i want you to give god about two minutes of the best praise you can give it you hear that devil i'm free you hear that devil i'm free i'm free he set me free yes he set me free he broke the thoughts a prison for me i glory down by jesus the sea oh glory to god he set me free if you're starchy and you're religious if you've been living a non-salon christian life it's not time for that it's time for the church of the lord jesus christ to look the devil in the eye and say i'm not gone i'm not out of here and until i get out of here i'm gonna lay hands on the sick i'm gonna cast out the devil i'm gonna speak with new tongues i'm gonna walk in the spirit i'm gonna believe the word of god i'm going to have revival i'm going to leave this world speaking in an unknown tongue and lifted up my eyes unto my health of glory to god i held this to the lord let's all stand come on let's stand hallelujah go ahead go ahead i gave you bits and pieces the best i could i'm going back to that vision december 31st 2005. the powerful thing about the vision i saw the woman on the beast remember there's no record of her in the last days doing math slaughters and listen to this part the beast she's riding on hates her read the rest of the story the beast throws her off and eats her so this ecumenical backslid worldly church that wants to bring liquor in the house of god fornication in the house of god stand up on the platform like i saw one young man in a spirit-filled pentecostal that's what the church come from originally with a pair of bikini underwear on just underwear yeah with a guitar and a pair of i think they might have been called swimming trunks red white and blue swimming trunks with a guitar leading people holy holy i want to take a switch to him and wear him out he was young enough to be my boy i want to say what in the world are you doing strutting around in these bikini riches things with your love handles hanging over and you're trying to make a statement because you want the people in your city to feel comfortable [Music] this is what else i saw in that vision the woman on the beast and the beast hates her don't ever forget that don't you ever think that the woman on the beast is going to rule this world for seven years uh-uh it's not gonna be her it's gonna be the beast the beast the bible says gonna throw her down and consumer devour and laugh you thought i cared about your god it's gonna be the most vicious but what i saw while she was on the beast walking across the earth and laughing i saw the blood mike that blood was those people that were raped and beaten and thrown in rivers never fought back once they just lifted their hands and said help me help me they were stabbed their entrails cut out their hearts cut out they were beheaded private parts cut off and thrown in the street anything they could do to make this blood-bought church look worthless [Music] did i not even say they will persecute you for my name's sake saith the lord yea yea i say unto thee they are after my people but yea i stand ready to fight the battle to loose upon this earth my judgment saith lord yea when they come against you remember says the lord that they are coming against me yea because i was the one that suffered and died and shed his blood yea and you have not resisted under blood yay hold on hold on yay and you are my people and i love you with an everlasting love i know the enemy has said he has forgotten you but i have not forgotten those that i have purchased with my own blood those whose names i have written in the lamb's book of life yea the enemy cannot take your name out yay even though he has said you count will never make it yay i have made the way for you and you will make it says the lord of hosts hallelujah [Applause] hallelujah i saw the woman writing on the beast there was no fear that's the part that was very very i don't know how to explain it it was it was like this woman is not afraid of anything but then all at once i saw her eyes with the blood running down her face and she went i said what's she afraid of she would glance and she'd back off i said what is what is it that she's afraid of oh god and i saw her backing off and i saw a bride the shulamite bride in the corner and when i saw the shulamite bride it was like solomon's little peasant girl out big and digging potatoes you know in the land of shulam i saw the shulamite bride rise up oh she didn't have any she wasn't decked with the finery of this world but she was decked with the glory of god and the holy spirit the holy ghost said only one thing will push back that evil spirit that is the power of god in the shulamite bride do the song we need a move switch whatever you're going to do we need to move brothers and sisters we need to move i pray you young people if you've never studied out these martyrs and the price that's paid i studied it out when i was a teenager and when i realized that down in that old church on that old oak bench before i ever walked in that little hole in this church that little pentecostal church there was hundreds of years of blood that was shed that i could have the privilege of sitting on that old oak bench and lifting my hands to heaven somebody paid a price we need a move [Music] get ready to put those words up there
