What Is Man

what is van that's I just want to play with this a little bit I want to talk about it sometimes we can we can perhaps state with over simplicity but when God says something as long as he's not speaking in a parable don't try to change it you know when when God speaks that is not an apparel you don't need someone to interpret it for you he means what he says all you have to do is listen okay so open your Bibles if you would to Genesis in the beginning chapter two and verse seven and let's see what how God formed man and this incidentally for those that want to make a deeper study this is f haha Dom the forming there of chapter two verse seven and it reads and the Lord God formed this is a Hebrew word that means pressed into the order he wished okay he pressed us into the likeness in which we are he formed man of the dust of the ground now what was man formed of dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life and man became a living soul now we could say if we were to oversimplify without God what's man he's dirt okay he's dust and you have Christians that go to all kinds of troubles of worrying about people that go against Christianity well I just hate to offend them they're dirt they're dust try to convert them don't worry about offending them okay now that is an over oversimplification because God breathed more than just his Holy Spirit Ruach in the Hebrew tongue into man he breathed also the spiritual body that is to say let us create man or form men and our image meaning the Elohim which is to say God in the Angels and so there's a little more to it than that he gives this man a choice man can absorb the Holy Spirit of Almighty God and be blessed or man can choose to go with the dirt it's up to the man you know and that's the way God wanted it why he loves you he wanted to be fair he wanted you to make your own choices and therefore this explains love itself if you love him you're gonna follow him if you love him you're going to have that spirit abide in you and you're going to abide in that spirit and your other men the man he actually placed in that body the celestial nd terrestrial we'll get to that a little further along the spiritual man has a choice you can either again stay with him or you can go the other route turn with me if you would to Psalms 103 sometimes we have to be real careful when we're following God's Word many times when we teach in simplicity he can give us knowledge of understanding that surpasses anything you will find in man's literature only in our father's Psalms 103 lets us know how precious it is to have God's blessings that is to say when God is pleased with you now let's look at it simply okay if you love the father and you are serving him adequately by that I mean doing your best and there is a there is someone here that does not love the father necessarily that is to say to the point that he has any priority in their life who do you think God is gonna bless you or then I would hope that your opinion of our Heavenly Father would not be so unfair and you would say then because you have to be in God's will in his way to have him touch you in your life and use you so naturally someone that is against him or that is against you he's going to treat quite differently we'll find that out here in the songs be on guard for that but first think of being in him with him and for him the Psalms 103 verse 1 bless the Lord O my soul and all that is within me bless His Holy Name that means not dirt not just in flesh not just in action not just the movement of man but the Holy Spirit within you and your spirit as well meshing and blessing Almighty God when you bless him he's going to bless you tenfold verse 2 bless the Lord O my soul and forget not all his benefits do you forget them you ever get lonely and say I just feel all like God has deserted me when you poor rascal you know you're to be pitied you truly are you know why because God will never desert you he'll never leave you nor forsake you and you have time to worry about that poor miserable rich that you would be if that were to be the case his benefits claim him that's his promises verse 3 who forgiveth all thine iniquities who healeth all thy diseases he does that do you believe that do you follow him do you have enemies let him take care of them when you've done all you can do ok after you stomp the little ants let him take over ok you'll handle the rest who redeemeth thy life from destruction he redeems your soul from hell who is the destroyer and who controls destruction Satan does of course so what are you afraid of who crowned at thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies s what as a kinsman redeemer why because you're his child you're his offspring you're his own and he cares he truly does care ok so what is man he can be dirt dust or he can be a child of God there's a great deal more to life than dirt verse 5 whose satisfy thy mouth with good things the Word of God these very words strengthen you protect you bless you so that diamon youth is renewed like the Eagles you know the Eagle they spring up out of that tree and they fly every day and the older they get sometimes the higher they fly so he said I can do that for you ok it's kind of when you get on a long in years that could be question and papa better be that as it may let the spirit prevail you know don't listen to dirt verse 6 the Lord executed righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed I mean if you ever really get down on yourself underline that underline it anytime somebody oppresses you the Lord is going to render that that is just do you know what that means they're gonna get everything they got coming - you don't have to worry about if anything pray for him because they're gonna get it he made knowing his ways unto Moses his accent of the children of Israel he gave us the law and he told Moses on the mountain exactly what he was going to do that's why you can always believe God my dear one don't doubt him you don't need some holy person to interpret that for you he tells us his word is real and his word is true the Lord is merciful and gracious slow to anger and plenteous in mercy you know what he's long-suffering unfortunately some of us don't inherit those qualities of being long-suffering that means patience he's got all kinds of patience and he loves you and he's going to stick with you even though you mess up even though you go to the dirt every occasion Allah he still loves you he'll never leave you he will never forsake you he is long-suffering verse 9 he will not always chide neither will he keep his anger forever meaning if you deserve it if you being a child of God whereby he loves you he's going to chastise you he's going to correct you occasionally and don't we need it really now be honest with yourself sometimes we need it okay keeps us in line keeps us sharp keeps us ahead of the enemy and he's not always like that it's only when we kind of I'll use it turn to the dirt a little bit okay verse 10 he had not dealt with dwelt dealt with us after our sins nor rewarded US according to our iniquities he's always a little bit light we deserve probably a lot more than we get in correction but then when you're pleading for mercy and forgiveness we serve a God of love he loves you mercy Neven for as the heaven is high above the earth so great is his mercy toward them that fear him in other words everything about him is higher than what we have he thinks on a different level he's not quick to anger and he is long-suffering meaning he has patience where sometimes a human being can get a little impatient they want everything now instant this and instant that you know well God didn't make us that way okay he kind of lets us grow into things okay it's called maturity in some senses okay verse 12 as far as the east is from the west so far has he removed our transgressions from us boy that's something in it do you know how far the East is from the West all the way I mean that's that's all the way out of the world he takes them away when you ask for forgiveness and you surely wouldn't be one of these pitiful little people that after you've asked him for forgiveness bring it up to him again you you wouldn't do that to God would you when he says it's gone it's moved clear out of the atmosphere the hemisphere it's gone Lord I just hate I did it you poor miserable wretch because you see that irritates God because you're really selling him he couldn't do it and when you tell God he can't do something when all things are possible with him even getting along with you okay then it irritates him a little bit so let him know you love him and when he removes sins don't be bringing it back up again it's gone didn't happen doesn't exist verse 12 I'm sorry 13 like as a father pitieth his children has mercy on them okay this is like in the Hebrew law Ohama only Asura hammam showing mercy so the Lord pities them that fear Him those that revere him those that love him God's elect God takes care of them he's aware of them he doesn't consider them to be dirt because he knows his spirit is with them and they and him and I sharpen up for me real good for he knoweth our frame he remembereth that we are dust he knows what you are without him he knows you're nothing but a bunch of dirt but what is this word frame and and you should know it okay it's just that and it means rather than the word formed we covered listen to me now listen to me good rather than the word formed which is a sister word to this your side to be pressed into that shape this particular word means conception and you got to think about that a minute he knows your conception and you know something this means you've got to go back a long way further than Genesis 2:7 when he said let us make man in our he knows before the conception back all the way to the conception and the world it was he knows your heart from there he knows your frame he knows what you did there he knows what you do here and he cares why he loves you so therefore at the same time in his election and the reason he chosen chose them he knows from Satan's first rebellion whether he can count on you or not what did your soul do there did you run with a lot and worship Satan or did you stand against him and say there's the line don't you cross it ok did you make a stand he knows that's what it says when he says I know you're praying I know your conception I know what it was back there with you you see this is why God has the right to judge you and man doesn't because he knows you he knows what he can count on you for how far he can trust you what what your breaking point is if you have one you see these things are important in combat in combating and enemies such as Satan God is not going to build someone up that breaks easy and send him out to do something for him that's tough you can you can understand that why he's gonna win God is gonna win I've read the back of the book I know so he picks winners and that's when he picked you because he knows he can count that's a very important verse there that's really the seedbed of this lecture is he knows what you are besides just dust as it stated he remember that we are dust he knows what two weeks feck from us into flesh but at the same time he knows your conception meaning what happened before what he placed in there when he placed your spiritual body inside that dust that dirt and he knows again what he can count on from you that's a very deep verse and it shows and a deep close contact to your kinsman redeemer which is to say our Father himself through the son verse 15 s for man did you take the little mortal man his days are his grass that's what that dust is like as a flower of the field so he flourishes you know when his help doing great looking good for the wind passes over it and it is gone and the place thereof shall know it no more in other words dust man that live all that long toughening he's gone however 17 but the mercy of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him that revere him that love him and his righteous unto children's children in other words there is much more to serving God than flesh much more the flesh doesn't last but eternal souls last forever that is to say people that revere that love God your eternal you're not dirt you're not dust and what he's saying here I know in your beginning I know your frame I know your conception I know what I can count on and you prove it over and over the flesh we all know goes but those souls placed therein or eternal in our forever meaning there's a whole lot more to living than the flesh alone verse 18 to such as keep his covenant and to those that remember his Commandments to do them 19 the Lord hath prepared his throne in the heavens and his kingdom rule earth over all in other words it is forever so worthwhile that our Father cares about his children what is man kind of dirt if you want to be and if you want to be a servant of God then you have this to look forward to the eternity in other words we're just getting started verse 20 blessed the Lord his angels that excel in strength that do His commandments hearkening unto the voice of his word paying attention verse by verse chapter by chapter the Word of God changing your life strengthening your life setting you apart from others he knows your form he knows your conception he knows what he can count on from you bless ye the Lord all ye his hosts do ministers of his that do his pleasure that means you do as you plant seeds as you pass on a thought bless the Lord all his works in all places of his Dominion bless the Lord O my soul why shouldn't we bless him what would we be without him well we wouldn't have been anything because you know the dirt would never have come to life had it not been for him so you can't count on you can just count that as Zippo which that's zero okay it amounts to nothing he is our everything and within those closing verses there it means he has already set up his kingdom you don't have to wonder about it well let's go kingdom when we get there when we go through this miserable earth is dirt are we gonna have a kingdom to go to it's already there it's already set up he promised that he just told you about it and he told you that it's forever it's everlasting it's your home this is why that you're only a stranger here there was a lady one time she said I just don't like my name Rebecca I said why wouldn't you well I don't want to be a stranger I said you're a stranger here your home is there it's just a beautiful thing you know always always look things over real good and go to that debt know and understand that certain lady has passed on at this time many years ago and she knows that now now she's back home okay so let's continue right on chapter 104 bless the Lord O my soul o my lord o my god thou art very great thou art clothed with honor and Majesty everything about him you never have to be ashamed serving God who cover it thyself with light as with the garment who stretches out the heavens like a curtain you know enjoy nature sometimes you can see God and not even know it you see it in the majesty of nature if you can absorb it if you can receive it who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters who make up the clouds his chariot who walketh upon the wings of the wind the rock the spirit for he is spirit you know there is so much more to that I wish I could go into everything I know about that I can't but when you see a big cumulus fluffy cloud and his spirit is near then his chariot could be inside you don't know or do you I don't know you know it's Aquarius some people are spiritually attendant verse for who maketh his angel spirit look his ministers a flaming fire a fire of truth that simplifies God's Word gets it right down where the rubber meets the road who laid the foundations of the earth that it should not be removed forever they'll cover us that with the deep as with a garment the water stood above the mountains at thy rebuke they fled I have the voice of that Thunder and they hastened away God set the shorelines he's in control he protects man we have events that happen such as earthquakes that can mess up shorelines we just had a tsunami you know about that but at the same time wise people know when to expect something like that why because you're educated in the Word of God and he does those things he's in control and he does know I want you to skip on down if you would with me to verse 29 let me let me fill in in between here he's talking about in verse 26 they go down there go the ships there is that the violin whom thou made up to play there in these wait all upon thee that thou mayest give them their meat in due season and and sometimes this is just this is symbolic of Satan in the Nile okay as an old crocodile the vaya then the sea monster in other words flesh waits for flesh in the last hour and you got it okay verse 29 the hidest by face they are troubled they'll take us away their breath that's to say their spirit the rock they die and return to their dust and there you have it again what is man without God dirt dust but no one no one is forced to give up our Father and to give up that spirit to give up that that belongs to you that is to say his presence his promises his love the fact that he loves you and that he will never weaken as far as your case is concerned never and will always be with you only man can drift away from God only man can give up God and turn back to dirt verse 30 thou sendest forth thy spirit they are created and thou knewest the face of the earth and he will do that as it is written in Revelation chapter 21 verse 1 he rejuvenates this whole earth the glory of the Lord shall endure forever not awhile for ever the Lord shall rejoice in his works he look on the earth and it tremble he touches the hills and they smoke you have all these things going on do you see God do you see him in the world today in his workings and in what he does 33 I will sing unto the Lord as long as I live I will sing praise to my god while I have my being do you have your being or are you dirt it's that simple it's your choice that's the way he created us that's how he knows your conception he knows what you can handle he knows what he can count on you for my mediation verse 34 my mediation of him shall be sweet I will be glad in the Lord 35 to complete let the sinners be consumed out of the earth and let the wicked be no more gone finished dirt dust back to dust bless the Lord O my soul praise ye the Lord what what great promises he makes us in those two songs that he knew you from before if you go to that dead that he knows that he can count on you do you understand what a compliment that is to you from God that with all this world and the trouble that's in it that he feeds you had we covered the verses therein in Psalms 104 it said he even knows how to feed the wild sheep that never seen man he knows when they need something to eat he knows how to provide for everything and the jest of course is don't you think he knows how to take care of you you know he that created this earth and when you look out at night the universe you see the stars in heaven let your father and he loves you he cares he knows your conception he knows you from the beginning and hey if he still loves you that's saying a bunch don't you think really you know it sure is New Testament I think anyone can guess where I'm going to take you 1st Corinthians chapter 15 to complete first Corinthians chapter 15 Paul is teaching here concerning man and how God assists man and he says if you're going to expect an ear of corn the seed you plant to get that new year it's got to die so to get your new spiritual bodies sometimes the flesh body must die okay so pick it up with verse 40 what I want you to understand so that you don't over simplify and simply say man is either dirt or he has the Holy Spirit no there's a spiritual man dwelling in there in you and that's what God breathed into you and even even in a natural birth at your conception it happened you know we could take that word frame he knows your brain and it kind of really lets people know where life begins at conception do you understand it makes it very deep into son but yet so simple as truth flows but I want you to know that you have two bodies you have that dirt one and hey it's not all that bad it's different than anyone elses it's got different fingerprints different DNA you know and it's it has all sort of things built-in like you have little hairs on the back of your hand you know why that is that's so when you get in a closed place it's telling you is about to get tight in here you're about to mash a finger dude and it means free booze okay you've got all kinds of wonderful things built the end to that dirt body why because everything God does is fantastic it truly is and and he can work with it but let's talk about the other body that he breathed into that men saw first Corinthians 15 verse 14 there are also celestial bodies and bodies terrestrial but the glory of the celestial is one in the glory of the terrestrial is another in other words the earthly is a little different than heavenly but and and we've covered those facts one dies the other doesn't had we read verse 39 it says there's all kinds of flesh there's flesh of fish and men and birds and fishes but what does flesh do it's what is flesh dirt okay it dies so it means that if you're looking at flesh alone I'll go ahead and say it may offend son is if you're looking for the dirt to get you through it's not going to get you through any mourning would an old catfish it's going to die okay it's going back to dirt I just thought I'd throw that in okay verse 41 there is one glory of the Sun and another glory of the Moon and another glory of the stars for one star differeth from another star in glory every human being is different you're unique and God calls his children stars many times implied 42 so also is the resurrection of the Dead it is sown in corruption and it is raised in incorruption in other words that body is not flesh and that body does not wilt okay it's not perishable it is sown in dishonor and it is raised in glory it is sown in weakness it is raised in power almighty God raises his own his army coming to fold the hosts of hell it is so in a natural body that's to say flesh it is raised a spiritual body there is a natural body and there is a spiritual body you have to understand that beloved that you have an inner man it's different than the flesh man and sometimes you can almost judge people whether they let the natural man rule or the spiritual man you know the natural man is one of the first things the natural man will say is you've got to feed me if you don't feed me I'm gonna die I don't care what spiritual do you think you're doing but without me you're nothing well that's wrong say so you have to you have to who's captain of your you know which which do you let room dirty what is man dirty or this other man the spiritual being and so it is written you can count on it the first man Adam was made a living soul in the last Adam was made a quickening spirit the first Adam of course was hard on the one we read about in 2:7 the last Adam was Jesus Christ himself and he was spirit howbeit that was not first which is spiritual but that which is natural and afterward that which is spiritual oh why did God do it that way verse 47 the first man is of the earth earthly and the second man is of the Lord from heaven that is to say a manual which is to say God with us let us create man in our image as is the earthly such are they also that are earthly and as is the heavenly such are they also that are heavenly that's the way it goes it's your choice in other words and as we have borne the image of the earthly we shall also bear the image of the heavenly you can count on it if it's no longer than just for judgment you be there okay now this I say brethren that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God and neither doth corruption inherit incorruption and to consider it continues on saying in an instant in the twinkling of an eye at the end all will be changed why can't flesh in flesh and blood enter the kingdom of heaven it's a different dimension okay different place and a different body a much more perfect body I can even say it's the real you and that's the truth it's the real you that is not to say that you're an inn this plush body to accomplish things for the Living God to plant seeds to help those that are dirt and and I'm not I don't you think I'm doing that cruelly or offensively to anyone people need help and how can you help people without telling them the truth that's how it's done our Heavenly Father knows man what is man man is whatever man wishes to be his or her choice you know that's strictly your choice well I've made a lot of mistakes in my life because I got bad but I don't give me that I will not hear that you are the one that's the captain of this ship yours and you're the one that steered that little boat right out on bad advice and you should have known better you should have listened to your father okay so don't don't anytime that you try to blame somebody else other than self you're headed for trouble in the first place well well how do how do I handle that it's real easy don't listen to fools well that's what do you mean don't listen to well you're a bigger fool than they are if you do well how do I know a fool when I see one is called wisdom in the seventh verse of Proverbs will tell you how that you tell that how wisdom in the beginning of wisdom is the loving of the Lord who brings you true instruction and if you know the Lord's word you'll know a fool every time you see one they shine out they were big rich spiritual uniforms like I'm a food wedding here a fool for a while you know they shine like a big button to the wise okay and we're not to judge people hey but you're still not to listen to fools that's that's common sense isn't it so what is man man is whatever a man wishes to be God created man whereby the whole world is open to him in heaven as well the kingdom of God opened to him I could not understand how anyone would not take advantage and wish to participate in that that God has provided for us Heavenly Father thank you Father for your precious word thank you

metaphorically speaking ok but ezekiel chapter 44 verse 24 documents that you will know each other ok and that you can help each other alright Halas from Florida is the Trump's in 1st Corinthians 15:52 the last Trump and the 1st Thessalonians 4:16 God's Trump the 7th Trump yes they are both the Greek is very specific in 15 chapter of Corinthians it stipulates and means with the etymology of the word those for the rest' out that's the last ok I thought when Jesus came he immediately changed all to spiritual at first Corinthians 15:52 he does in the wink of an eye and and first Thessalonians says the same thing it says where the translation can give you a little bit of trouble is when you meet him in the air the word air does not translate sky but breath of life which what is the spirit Joe body other than the Ruach and in Hebrew or in the Greek it is numa numa is if you you got a tire you got a car with pneumatic tires on it that means you've got a air I'm up ok it's breath of life it means spiritual body ok Tim from Oregon I want to say I'm amazed at your knowledge well sometimes I am to know I it's our father's knowledge that we want to be impressed with his word is complete ok my question is what do you believe the role of the USA will be with the Antichrist and the one world government thank you Tim from Oregon well it gives us a home base whereby we have the freedoms to teach God's Word and our Constitution guarantees that it is amazing as we influence the world at this time we've just witnessed a great thing that some people for the first time in years and years had a vote and many people thought would think lack of knowledge is a dangerous thing many said well the Sunnis and the Shiites and they're going to just really tangle it up because they'll never be able to get along do you understand what and that that is saying those are religions that would be like saying in America we're gonna have a vote and it's gonna be with the Presbyterians the Baptist and the Methodists and you better watch those Baptist how they vote because they'll all vote just the same or the Methodists think it's that's ridiculous it doesn't have anything to do with politics basically okay so a lot of people get in a sweat by listening to newscasters that never take the time to explain how the cultures of people you know you have Sunnis marrying Shiites and Shiites marrying Sunnis and and of course we have those to the north which is kind of a little different situation but they still they're good people and there are free people now that's what this nation is about though you've got some cranks around we there we're good nation with the good people and do you know why that promise we read today I will always be with you I will be there with you I would be there for you that's why you can put your hand in your pocket if you're lucky and pull out a coin you may have one that'll say In God We Trust all right and I have seen times I did not have a coin in my pocket to pull out but be that as it may stand if ur entrace us from Colorado I have a question where is it in the Bible that I might find where you spoke on the fact God may give you permission to go over to the other side and help a loved one but not return to him our Father for seven days in in the Book of Ezekiel from chapter 42 the end is about the Millennium okay when we're all in spiritual bodies in Ezekiel chapter 44 verse 25 is the scripture you're looking for where it says you can you can help each other but you will if you be one of God's elect that is which the Hebrew word is the dock priest of the dock is simply God's elect at NU the false Christ was coming first Stan from California I am confused in some of your lessons you say that when we die our souls instantly go to heaven in first Thessalonians verses 4 through 18 it states that the dead in Christ shall rise first I'm gonna correct you here it's chapter 4 verses about 13 and 14 through 18 okay that state that the dead rise first do you know why the dead rise first they're already gone there with him you go back up to verse 13 and pick up the subject and you won't be confused about it anymore okay my question when we die are we going with the Lord then or are we waiting to go with him when he returns you're going right then I want you to make a note of Ecclesiastes chapter 12 verses 6 & 7 and don't ever forget it I'll say it again the Ecclesiastes chapter 12 verses 6 & 7 and don't ever forget it Rick from California where in the bible does it say we will recognize our loved ones in heaven who we're getting a lot of those today Ezekiel 44 chapter 25 okay that's Ezekiel 24 is called heaven that's where the Christ is returned and were with him Jolene from New York could you please tell me the name of the lady who had the dream that started the rapture theory also where did you get the information about that front we carry a little work in our library called the incredible cover-up you'll find it on the book list it was a work done by David Macpherson and we even have a more in-depth work than that by the same person who went there checked us all out and the little lady's name was Margaret MacDonald and the year was 1830 and there happened to be two preachers of the Brethren there and they said whoopee we got it made now any moment doctrine and they went with it okay william from you can order the book from us okay incredible cover up give you all you wanted to know about it and how she was speaking in tongues so to speak William from Wisconsin my question is when they say jesus is coming back let's say dear pastor Arnold I'm a former atheist for 21 years on June the 10th Oh five will be three years I have accepted Jesus Christ as my savior well praise God it's good good that you're with him my question is when they say Jesus Christ is coming back will he come back in the flesh or spirit no one seems to be able to give me a just answer perhaps you can sincerely William well William it's real simple this is why he went to the Mount that we call the Mount of Transfiguration his body had to be transfigured and could not be left in the flesh when he died for the simple fact that people would doubt very seriously that he ever resurrected so that is why that he along with Elijah and a law along with Moses in my opinion were transfigured the last chapter in Deuteronomy will let you know about Moses God wouldn't have until not let man bury him and so he comes in his spiritual body when he returns but Christ in the transfigured body is visible to us and he will be with us in that body throughout the millennium and the beauty of it is William we will all change at that seventh trumpet is coming into our spiritual bodies we've got to that's part of believing Charles from Colorado you recently entered a question concerning Ezekiel 1320 and I thought I heard you say that this scripture had nothing to do with the rapture but was kerning concerning no concerning the Tower of Babel with man trying to create his own salvation did I hear you correctly no you did not it is Genesis chapter 11 that has to do with the Tower of Babel and not necessarily rapture Ezekiel chapter 13 verse 20 very definitely addresses the rapture because God said I am against those that teach my people to fly to save their souls but you know the the person who asked the question and I can't remember if it was a lady or a gentleman asked if the Tower of Babel was also a part of that and it was it was you might say the fledgling of it in as much as man has always wanted to figure out a way to work out his own salvation other than just listening to Christ and letting him do the saving all right and they figured they could build that brick tower up high enough they could make it to heaven and then if the flood ever came again they wouldn't drown man cannot figure his own salvation Christ does Deborah from Texas my family thinks that you are a wonderful pastor well I think your family for that you have lightened up our lives I do have one question though when Christ comes back are we going to be able to tell the difference if it is him or the devil of course we can because we know the chronological order of events meaning the false one will come not maybe not perhaps God declares it through the son in mark 13 the Antichrist will come first and if he had not shortened today's no flesh would be saved but he did shorten today's so we know the fate comes first and quite frankly as long as we're in the flesh as long as we're in the flesh it's the fake that's here because the minute Christ returns we are we are in our spiritual bodies just wham just like that okay you know I thank you for the fact that you give me credit for the enlightening your lives but it's the Word of God that does it okay and I know what you're saying it but the word just changes people the word itself changes our lives it gives us hope it tells us how to be prosperous and successful Nicky from Kentucky would you please give me the scripture that says Satan is bound behind the throne of God in heaven well that that's real simple where do you think Michael is at this time he's in heaven right I mean it stipulates that he is in Revelation chapter 12 Michael and his angels just a short time before the very end go to war in heaven with the sate with Satan the old dragon which is the serpent all of his names are utilized in various verses in Revelation 12 so that you do not miss the point that we're talking about the Antichrist who is the devil will be cast to this earth for just a very short period of time and then that's no mystery because Revelation chapter 9 lets us know that the short period is only five months meaning you're going to tell you well he's here already not just his evil spirit when he comes de facto he will come able to perform miracles in the sight of men such as snapping fingers and lightening / coming from him Foss rather coming from heaven awesome and there will be a lot of people deceived at that time and some are gonna be confused if they're not real careful that even know the truth that's how effective he is and so Revelation chapter 12 verses 6 & 7 will document it for you Bart from Michigan again I want to say his evil spirit is able to roam the earth just as the Holy Spirit is able to roam the earth now but he will come de facto Bart from Michigan what is the course of Abia is it in the Bible of course it is it's one of the 24 courses pronounced in Luke chapter 1 verse 5 in in Greek which is which is abaya but bhaiyaa is hebrew and you'll find it in first chronicles 20 chapter 24 verse 10 first chronicles chapter 24 verse 10 it is the eighth course for the Levitical priesthood okay of course is the tour of duty in the temple okay Carl from Illinois we're in the Bible can you find the fallen Giants I know it talks about it in Genesis but where else can I find it well there's you've got the Fallen one spoken of in the great book of Jude just before the book of Revelation in the first six seven verses speaks of them again but maybe never heard of little David and Goliath men I mean there's a place where it talked about a giant that when he walked there boond and little old David crossed that stream and picked up five smooth stones it only took one and he buried it right into his forehead and killed the Giants I'm out of time hey I love you all a lot because you enjoy studying our fathers word chapter by chapter verse by verse most
