Wrath of God (tape) pt1 Always watch Jerusalem. That is the barometer. All end times prophesy, basically concerns Jerusalem. Dont ever let anyone pull you off course by looking out here or out here He is in the desert. Hes out there. Because that wont work. Wont fly. Our subject this afternoon is the wrath of God. Lets get right into it. Open your Bibles to the book of Revelation chapter 16. And we do ask a word of wisdom from our Father in Yeshuas name. Revelation chapter 16 pertains to the wrath of God. The wrath of God happens to be the vials. Chapter 16 verse 1 and it reads. and I heard a great voice out of the temple where was it from? The temple. Where is the temple? Jerusalem. saying to the seven angels `go your ways. Pour out your vials of the wrath of God upon the earth. now, what you have to watch for, thats alright, well pick that up in a minute, dont know what that was, somebody dropped their Timex I think. This is going to have a lot to do with time so that is befitting. When does Gods wrath happen? The first trump, second trump, third trump? Gods wrath doesnt happen until the end. Many scholars have difficulty with this. Even my mentor basically thought that this was the seventh trump. No, it starts in the sixth and immediately, you might say, beginning just before the sixth trump which is to say the appearance of the spurious messiah. So what we are dealing with is Gods wrath when its ready to be poured out. That is to say, on those that follow the false messiah, that are mislead and so forth. So lets fix the time a little better. Verse 2 and the first went and poured out his vial upon the earth and there fell a noisome and grievous sore or ulcer if you like upon the men which had the mark of the beast and upon them which worshipped his image. lets set our watches again here. If they are worshipping the image, what does that mean? the image is here. If they are worshipping the beast, if they have already got the mark, then he is here. So we just moved into the sixth trump right there. So you can just scratch off the veils to begin at the sixth trump and work through the seventh. My point is this. Check your time. Things begin to happen pretty fast with these. You know, it isnt all that long when they began until the conclusion. Verse 3. and the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea and it became as the blood of a dead man and every living soul died in the sea. I have no doubt in my mind that this is when God sends the strong delusion, that is part of His wrath and His strong delusion as it is mentioned in 2 Thessalonians chapter 2 when he said `hey, if they want to be confused and believe any fly away stuff, which is not biblical, if they want to be deceived by the spurious messiah, Ill help it out. Ill send them some strong delusion. that does create stomach problems, my friend, in a spiritual sense. When you get lead down primrose lane and a person that is unlearned in the word of God will have a very difficult time in that period. Because there will be supernatural entities on the earth at that time as Michael, as it is written in Revelation 12 will kick the old boy himself out playing Jesus boy. And a lot of people are going to go bananas for him. They are going to think that it is Christ because his main doctrine is that he is going to fly you away. He started it. He will finish it. It is not Biblical. Lets continue on. Verse 4. and the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and the fountains of waters and they became blood. And lets continue on to five. and I heard the angel of the waters say `thou art righteous o Lord. Thou art and wast and shall be because thou hast judged thus. in other words, they are getting what they deserve. That is what judgment is about. If you deserve reward, you are going to get reward. If you deserve correction, you are certainly going to get correction. Verse 6. for they have shed the blood of the saints and prophets and thou hast given them blood to drink for they are worthy. now who has shed the blood of prophets and saints? Jesus Himself said, `you are guilty of the blood of righteous Abel all the way down to Zacharias between the porch and the altar. Well, who slew Abel? We know, dont we? It was Cain. What is the Hebrew word Kenite as it is used in Gods word transliterated rather than it is translated, it means sons of Cain. They are the guilty ones and this is where God says that they are going to get theirs. They are going to get theirs. Hey, I, thats great. That is judgment. That is fair. And that is the way it is going down. Verse 7. and I heard another out of the altar say `even so Lord God almighty, true and righteous are thy judgments. you can count on that. Let me ask you something. You are not a person that wants anything other than a fair shake, are you? Did you hear what I said? I said, you are not one of the people that would like something other than a fair shake. That should please everyone. Because you get what you deserve. And that is kind of like life itself. Thats the way life today is. Most people today think that they dont get a fair shake and they brought it upon themselves. You cant mess up and be successful. It just doesnt work. That is just natural. Our Father is very fair and you get what you deserve. Now, naturally, satan is going to trip you up but God has given you power as a can do type person that you could tell him where to go. And do you know something? Hes got to listen to you when you do it in the name of Christ. Youre in charge. So take charge. Take charge of your life. Dont mope, weep, and think that you need a little extra edge. Do it! I mean, when you plow, plow deep. When it is too rough for anyone else, it is getting about right for us. It is getting about right for you. That is the frame of mind that you need to have when you have God behind you because it is a fact. That is a reality. Not a wish. When you have that faith. Okay, so, lets go with verse seven. Did I read that? and I heard another out of the altar say `even so Lord God almighty, true and righteous are thy judgments. Eight. and the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun. now I told you I was going to call on you on this, about the sun, we covered it in the lecture before last and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire. now, each of these plagues, or wraths, happened in Egypt. Nothing new about them. Except for this one. This one is different. This is new. This one did not happen in Egypt. The fourth vial stands totally out on its own. And it continues on its own. What does it accomplish? Verse 9. and men were scorched with great heat and blasphemed the name of God which hath power over these plagues and they repented not to give Him glory. do you know who it is who has that power of the sun? you know, we did a little reading in chapter 11, remember the other day? Lets go back there. Hold you place though, we are coming back here to sixteen. Chapter 11 concerning those two candlesticks. The two churches and concerning the two witnesses. Verse 4 of chapter 11 reads these are the two olive trees and the two candlesticks standing before the god of the earth not heaven, earth. That means someone here doing Gods work. And if any man would hurt them, fire proceeded out of their mouth and devoured their enemies and if any man hurt them he must in this manner be killed. These have power to shut heaven that it rain not in the days of their prophesy and have power over waters to turn them to blood, to smite the earth with all plagues as often as they will. so we see that the two candlesticks and the two witnesses are given, are utilized naturally with the two witnessed being that through which the Holy Spirit commands. What does the Holy Spirit then do through the lamp stand? Mark 13. They are delivered up before the evil one. Not to premeditate what they are going to say beforehand but what is given then at that hour, that time. You see, there is work to do ahead. And it is fantastic and we are moving into that. It is closing in. Im not saying it is going to happen tomorrow. Im saying you need to be mentally and spiritually prepared for it today. Otherwise, what good are you? If you dont know what to expect, or what God expects from you, beforehand, do you think that he can use you? As you have heard me use the analogy, if I have two people to hire and I am going to build me a brick outhouse, and Ive got a man here whos got 30 years experience with brick and Ive got somebody that never laid one in his life, which am I going to use? Naturally, I am going to use the experienced one. Or lets say you want a tooth extracted. Here I come along, I have a pair of pliers--or you can go to the dentist. Ill tell you frankly, I have never had any experience pulling teeth, but Ill try. You know. I mean naturally, you are going to take the one that is prepared and trained. So you must train yourself to be useful to God and then the blessings flow. Because God knows that you are serious minded. He knows He can count on you. And therefore, in that preparation well you mean we are going to turn water to.. no, that is deception. We are going to stop the deception, gonna put it at ease. You know when someone is spiritually dead, they are dead. And the wrath of God intends to help them along with that. If they want to believe a lie, Hes going to help them out with it. If they wont study His Word. As I stated before, that is written 2 Thessalonians chapter 2. So, this is one of the plagues of Gods wrath that is different, that pulls in the witnesses and the church as witnesses. Now understand what I said, dont say I said the church it the two witnesses. I didnt say that. I said God uses the two witnesses kaya in the Greek AND the church as witnesses. What? The Holy Spirit speaking through them. It is written. Matthew 24. Mark 13. Luke 21. So, theres things to do. What an exciting time to live. Yes, this fourth vial stands out like a big thumb. Its got our thumbprint on it. Okay, lets continue on. And lets return. No, lets go a little further in this eleven. Verse 7. And when they shall have finished their testimony when the witness is over the beast the descended out of bottomless pit shall make war against them. Who is that? Well, the false messiah, of course. and shall overcome them and kill them and their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city which spiritually is called Sodom and Gomorrah I mean, it is bad spiritually as that where also our Lord was crucified where is that? Its Jerusalem. Dont take your eyes off of that city as far as prophecy is concerned. It all hinges there. and they of the kindreds and peoples and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and a half and shall not suffer their bodies to be put in graves. we know at that time it is time for our Father to return, the Son to return. He is going to and that is when the seventh vial is poured out and boy are things going to be corrected. You, as one of Gods servants have nothing to worry about about the wrath of God. I want you to repeat that to yourself everyday if you ever get thinking that way. Hes not angry with you. God doesnt get angry at people that love Him. Hes only angry at those that belligerently refuse to even believe upon Him, or think it is nonsense. Do you think that God is going to bless someone who thinks He is nonsense? Woah, look out. He is going to put them right under His thumb. He has His thumb right on their number. He will make happy days for them, alright. And then they will wonder I wonder why my head is shot with pot. A little crack here. I have a little crack in my brain here I think. I wonder who did this to me? wake up. That is nonsense. You and no one else is responsible for your condition. You dont know. They told me you listened to them. Dont try to pass the buck. Be responsible for yourself. What wrong with this world today in large part is that people will not be responsible for their actions. You better be responsible for it because God has got it written down. You are going to answer for it, like it, lump it. Good, bad, ugly or somewhere in between. And I know in you alls case its sweet and He loves you. Return to 16 Revelation. Okay, lets take the fifth angel. Okay the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast. And his kingdom was full of darkness and they gnawed their teeth for pain you know who is going to cause that one? That is the witnesses of the two candlesticks when they begin, wheres satans seat? Well, He tells you where he is going to plant it. 2 Thessalonians chapter 2. Right on mount Zion claiming to be God when he builds Gods temple. But when our witnesses are delivered up to be tried by him, it is going to pour a lot of heat on his seat. You can take that any way that you want to because that is what it is going to be. That means there is action there on the part of the two candlesticks. The two candlesticks are very important. You are not playing games. You are not church. It is a reality. Verse 11 and blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pain and sores and repented not for their deeds. And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates now, of course, that is the one that the spurious messiah defacto appears and the water thereof was dried up that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared. the whole world is brought into it at that point. Now remember Biblically, dont take your eyes and go all the way to the Euphrates River and expect it to be dried up. It is not going to be. But the Euphrates River has always been the boarder between Israel and Babylon. It means the rope is going to be dropped and quite frankly Jerusalem is going to become Babylon. Megiddio. Megiddio in the Hebrew tongue means the gathering place of the crowd. Thats where they are playing God. And you are going to be used to put a stop to that. Right on the seat of satan. Sound like fun? Dont let it frighten you. God takes care of His own. Verse 13 and I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon and out of the mouth of the beast and out the mouth of the false prophet do you know what unclean spirits are? You are going to take home a home assignment. I am not going to go there and Im not going to take the time to teach you. You are all familiar with it. The first epistle of John Chapter 4. It tells you that any spirit is unclean if it hath not Christ. So that kind of separates the believer from the nonbeliever. The unclean spirits naturally go the opposite way of what you will be going. The false prophet of course is the false messiah. 14 for they are the spirits of devils working miracles and I dont mean little miracles. I mean, its going to be big miracles in the sight of men. Lot of people are going to be fooled by it friends. Watch the signs of prophecy. which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world to gather them to the battle of that great day of God almighty thats the day we look forward to. Unclean spirits. Lying prophets. Gonna meet him this way. Gonna meet him that way. You are going to meet Him the way the Word states. Period. behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth and keepeth his garments lest he walk naked and they see his shame. the garment is made of fine linen woven together from your righteous acts. If you have enough righteous acts to make a nice flowing whatyamacallit robe. Fine. But if you have just enough for a teenie weenie bikini, there you are friend. If you dont enough for that, guess what? Happy birthday. Verse 16. and he gathered them together to a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon ar means city, town, hill. Megiddo means the gathering place of the crowd. Satans crowd. Where are they? Paul told you. 2 Thessalonians chapter 2. Right in Jerusalem. Thats why Jesus said there wont be a stone left standing one atop another when I hit the earth at the seventh trump. and the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air and there was a great voice out of the temple of heaven heaven this time. Not earth. Make a note of it. from the throne saying, `it is done. now that gives us kind of a large blue print. What we really need to do though, time wise, is blow this thing up on kinda the end of the thing so we get a better idea of how it is going down and where what nation is going to be and where we are right now. So you dont need to turn anywhere but continue on to the next chapter.
