yeah,

get

basically

our

be

you

to

You

it,



> as Jesus would warn you, in the name of God. So as satan has

quoted

think

> you would frighten him as thinking that you were tough to pull off

great

is

have

> Chapter 4 verse 17 and it reads. "and there was delivered

> unto Him" being Christ "the book of the prophet Esias" that is to

say

> Isaiah "and when He had opened the Book, He found the place where

it

> was written, 'the Spirit of the Lord was upon Me because He had

> anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor" that is to say, to

the> humble "He hath sent me to heal the broken hearted" that is to say

> those that know better, that know something is wrong and it breaks

> their heart to see people mislead. "to preach deliverance to the

> captives" those that satan might have wrapped up. The whole

families

> in some cases. To teach you how to break free from that. To teach

you

> how to be a servant of the living God. "and recovering the sight

to

> the blind" that is to say, the blind to the truth and in many

cases

> where they can see that light. See that truth "and recovering of

> sight to the blind. To set at liberty them that are bruised"

bruised

> for what? Bruised for serving God. Just because you serve the Lord

> and because you plant seeds occasionally, you are going to get

> bruised for it. You are going to have some knucklehead come along

> that will try to draw you off course or have his own agenda. Not

> God's agenda. God didn't send any heroes or special people. We are

> one body. This is what is special. It is the Word of God. And a

> person that is not in it, just isn't with God. Period. But to

wound

> those that are bruised or that suffer, what does that mean? it

means,

> He is going to take care of you. That was His first advent. And

that

> is what we are talking about here.>

> And then He says, verse 19 "to preach the acceptable year of

> the Lord" comma. Now He stopped in the middle of the verse. And

satan

> had just been quoting a lot of verses and I know you that have

> studied with me, you know what the rest of that verse is. And you

> know why He stopped right there. Because that is setting your

watch.

> That is letting you know where you are. What He is talking about.



> Why? So that you are not deceived. He is talking about the first

> advent.

>

> Verse 20 "and He closed the book and he gave it again to the

> minister and He sat down. And the eyes of all of them that were in

> the synagogue were fastened on Him. And He began to say unto

> them "this day" set your watch friend in your mind "this day is

this

> scripture fulfilled in your ears" that is the first part. Now we

got

> part number two and you are very much involved with part numbertwo.

> That's why it is important that you pay attention to God's Word

> because there are prophecies unfolding daily and you have to know

> where to look to see them. Not through another man's eyes but

through

> your own eyes because Christ came the first time to open your eyes

to

> what is happening. Whereby you are not blinded to it. Where you

are

> not deceived. That you are a child of His. Able to function as a

> servant of the living God.

>

> Verse 22 "and all bear Him witness" they listened "and> wondered at the glorious words which proceeded out of His mouth.

And

> they said `is this not Joseph's son?' now many of you when you

learn

> a Truth, you mention it in your family. `you surely don't believe

> that?' `well, it is written right here in the Bible' `well, you

> surely don't believe that?' now that is pretty dangerous stuff,

> friend. When people will not see what is plainly and simply

written

> end generation. It's not going to be nice when your family doesn't

> listen to you. But should you cry a lot about that?

>

> Let's see what happened to Christ about this. " and He said

> unto them, `ye will surely say unto me this proverb `physician,

heal

> thyself' whatsoever we have heard done in Capaurnum, do also here

in

> thy community." in other words, Christ had quite a reputation at

this

> time for healing the sick and so on and so forth. For teaching the

> Word. They didn't believe it. And if there is another way that you

> want to put it, they are challenging Him. `show us a sign'. that's

a

> cry of so many people when He has given you the whole book. And

you

> would ask for a sign. What you need to do is familiarize yourself> with what the signs are and read them for yourself. That's why we

are

> here.

>

> Verse 24. "and He said `verily I say unto you, no prophet is

> accepted in his own country'" so may of you, I know you have

problems

> with some of your own families. Do you think you are better than

> Christ? You think you can tell it better than He did? Naturally,



you

> are going to have some problems. That in itself will ultimately

works

> to the positive as it is written in Mark 13 for your own family

> deliver you because they think the false Jesus is indeed Jesus.

Why?

> A bunch of yo-yo's told them. Don't listen to yo-yo's. listen to

the

> Word of God.

>

> Verse 25. "but I tell you of a Truth," Christspeaking. "many

> widows were in Israel in the days of Elias" in the days of Elijah.

> When the heaven was shut up three years and six months." the same

> equivalent of time as the final days so to speak, to give an

example.

> He is drawing and using the analogy. "when great famine was

> throughout the land." and you know what the great famine is today.

It

> is for people hearing the real true Word of God. Not bread. Amos

> chapter 8 verse 11 documents it.

>

> Verse 26 "and to none of them was Elias" Elijah "sent save

> unto Sereptah a city of sidon unto a woman who was a widow." what> made this widow different then? Well for one thing, she only had

> enough for her and her son, one meal. and then they were going to

> die. She was willing to share that with a man of God. And of

course,

> he blessed her. God blessed her through that one. Well, why did

God

> pick her? Because the son and her was a sign unto you.

>

> Verse 27. "and many lepers were in Israel in the time of

> Elisias" which is the Greek for Elisha, of the servant of Elijah

the

> prophet. "but none of them was cleansed saving Namon the Syrian."

> well, he wasn't even of the house of Israel. And old Namon almost

> missed it. You know why? As it is written in 2 Kings, the prophet

> told him to go out there and dip seven times in the water. And he

> said, I have come all of this way and have brought all of these

goods

> and that is going to heal me? You see, it is obedience and it is

the

> Word. So he went and he finally dipped himself seven times and he

was

> white as a newborn child. That is to say of leprosy. He was

cleansed

> of leprosy, the scaly substances were gone. Why? He obeyed God.

Did

> God do that for everyone? No. well why did he do it for him?

Because> he finally mustered up the faith to go and dip seven times. Its

much

> like some of you, you do what many so called hearers do in this

> generation, the Word is very clear that you should annoint with

the

> oil of our people. They spit on them and blow on them and kick

them

> and shove them and have men catch them and roll them. You know, so

> help me God, I am not making fun of them but it is kind of funny,



> isn't it? Really. But you are supposed to annoint them and let God

do

> the rest. That is His promise and He will do it. And so help me

God.

> I like all our dear brethren of the cloth and so forth, I think,

and

> whatever but it is just not Biblical. Do I think they are healing

> anyone? Not really. Because no man heals unless he practices the

art.

> God does the healing. Man just likes to take himself for something

he> is not, if you are not careful. We serve God.

>

> So, there we have the Lord Jesus Christ immediately after

> being tempted by satan giving the time period of that time. Time

is

> very important. And He wants us to set our minds, the clocks of

our

> mind prophetically to that particular time. Now turn with me to

Luke

> 21. Now as I said, this is basically to synchronize our minds for

> what is about to follow. I know you have been over it but pay

> attention or by tonight or tomorrow afternoon you are going to

wonder> which way the herd went. Synchronize yourselves.

>

> Chapter 21. And what has happened here. You are all familiar

> with it. This is where God's elect are delivered up. They are not

to

> premeditate what they will say beforehand but what you are given

at

> that time by the Holy Spirit, speak. And Jesus, in Matthew 24,

Mark

> 13 and here gave seven signs which are the seven trumpets. You

don't

> have to worry about it. They are here. They are written. I guess

the

> question is, have we read it with understanding?

>

> Verse 19. And very bit of wise information. Advice. "In your

> patience possess ye your souls." be patient. Cover God's Word. God

> has patience. You must have patience. It is very difficult to be

> patient when you see such exciting prophecy transpiring around

this

> world. But be patient. Our time is not yet. Set your clock.

>

> Verse 20. "and when ye shall se Jerusalem compassed with

> armies" now this is a sign for you "and when ye shall se Jerusalem

> compassed with armies, then you know that the desolation thereof

is

> nigh" that means the desolator is on his way. Well, who is he?Satan.

> The same satan that tempted Christ in the wilderness is coming

back

> again. I guess the question is, are you locked and loaded for him?

>

> Verse 21. `then" what am I to do? "then let them which are

in

> Judea" where is that? Jerusalem. Look at it. Face it. Don't let

some



> numb skull pull you off track. All prophecy points to the

barometer

> of prophecy Judea. Jerusalem. "flee to the mountains and let them

> that are in the midst of it" where? Jerusalem "depart not and let

not

> them that are in the countries enter there into." in other words,

it

> is going to get rough. Why? The desolator is coming.

>

> 22. "for these be the days" well, what days are that? "these

> are the days of vengance. But all things which are written may be> fulfilled." do you know what they are? Well that makes it very

> important. Quite frankly, that's the rest of the Scripture Jesus

> didn't read. Why? It wasn't the day of vengeance. But, bless your

> hearts, listen. That day is so close upon us now that you better

be

> on guard. You better be alert. God is not going to put up with

this

> stuff forever. You understand? I said, your Father is not going to

> put up with this stuff that is going on in the world forever. He

will

> not be mocked.

>

> Well, let us read the 23rd verse. "but woe unto them thatare

> with child, unto them which give suck in those days for there

shall

> be great distress in the land and wrath upon this people." well,

> what's that wrath? And that sounds kind of frightening. It isn't

to a

> child of God. That wrath goes to the enemy. The wrath goes to

satan.

> Is that who you are of? Well, if you are, you are in the wrong

place

> friend. God loves His children. His wrath is not appointed at them

> and it does come on the day of vengeance. That's what it amounts

to.

> But His touch to you is not wrath but a gentle glow that is called

> the Holy Spirit. And that touch anoints you whereby you can then

> understand the Word of God. His direction.

>

> So it is important that you take that sign. Well, I wish He

> would show me. He already has. Listen to me. When you see

Jerusalem

> encompassed. I hope you are watching. I hope you are keeping up. I

> hope some nut hasn't pulled you off into some boom boom land

> somewhere and you have taken your eyes off the barometer. That

would

> mean that you haven't been studying God's Word. You haven't

remained

> focused on where the sign does take place. You would not recognizeit

> when it transpires before your very eyes. And listen to me

closely,

> God's elect have a very important role to play within this. That's

> why it is so important. But yet it is so simple. That's right. He

> wants to make sure that you understand because things that are

> really, really difficult we just have trouble understanding, don't

> we? But God teaches in simplicity and He is a realist and some

people



> get too boom boomy and overlook what it happening before their

> eyes. `o, if only I could be sure' they say. Well, God has warned

us.

> He gave us a sign. There it is and we will be talking about it a

> great deal more, about that statement, that verse that we just

read

> before this weekend is over.

>

> But for the time being, what did Jesus leave out of that

> scripture we read? They handed Him the book of Isaiah and He was

> reading from Isaiah 61. Turn there with me, I'm sorry, we're goingto

> make another stop in the new testament. I want to go to 2

> Thessalonians. 2 Thessalonians just for a quick rest stop. For

> knowledge. So that we get, this day of vengeance I want to nail

it. I

> want you to see the signs of it. The Pauline doctrine is no

> different than the gospels. That's what I want you to know. Well,

> maybe Paul taught something different. No, he didn't. So stay

> focused.

>

> 2 Thessalonians chapter 1 verse 5. "which is a manifest

token

> of the righteous judgment of God" this is to say, well, let usback

> it up to four so that we get the whole thought. "so that we

ourselves

> glory in you the churches of God" we will be talking more about

the

> churches of God. That simply means the assemblies that truly love

God

> and worship and study with Him "for your patience and faith in

your

> persecutions" you're going to be persecuted, so what? Satan can't

> kick up enough dust that I can't get his name and kick his dragon

> before he gets turned around twice. Because Christ has given us

that

> power. People worry too much. He that created all things gives us

> powers…have you used it? Or do you just talk about it? I don't

want

> to talk about it. I like action. "and tribulations that you

endure"

> well, what are those tribulations? What does it mean, when I have

to,

> when somebody says 'you surely don't believe that. That couldn't

be

> true' or something like that. It hurts your feelings in the

spiritual

> sense. What does it actually mean though?

>

> Verse 5. "which is a manifest token" it is plainevidence "of

> the righteous judgment of God that you may be counted worthy of

the

> kingdom of God for which ye also suffer" naturally, I mean, don't

be

> blind. Satan has been given a little space in this world to fool a

> few people if they will listen to him. He's kind of in charge

here.

> Do you think he is going to let you come down here and mess up his



> playhouse without squirming a little bit? Of course he's not.

Don't

> be a dreamer. But why would you worry about it? You don't. God

gave

> you power over all of your enemies including him. You don't have

to

> tolerate it. Why? Do you think that God doesn't know what is going

on

> in your life today? If you are really working for Him. He knows.

Why?

> Listen.>

> Six. "seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense

> tribulation to them that trouble you." o can He dish it out. Do

you

> think He waits until the wrath spills over? Not if they touch you.

> They are going to get it. That's why you can almost pray for your

> enemies because they are going to get it.

>

> Seven. "and to you who are troubled, rest with us" relax.

> Ease your pack down. I started to say 'light them up if you've got

> them' but I guess that, we can't say that anymore, that's an old

> military…relax. "when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven

> with His mighty angels" it is going to happen, beloved. Listen tome.

> It is going to happen to this generation. Well, what day? Nobody

> knows the day. He's giving you the sign so that you can set your

> clock. So that you know the seasons. Have you read it?

>

> Verse 8. "in flaming fire, taking vengeance on them that

know

> not God and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ"

hey,

> you play, you pay friend. Don't you think that God doesn't keep

good

> records. They are perfect. Not like something that we might keep.

And

> those that will mock God, I feel sorry for them. But they made

their

> own bed and let them sleep in it. All you are responsible for is

to

> plant seeds. If they insist on letting that seed rot under a clod,

> let it. Or let them put it to use and produce fruit for almighty

God

> and have a family that is blessed. That is our choice. That is

each

> one of our choices. Is to chose if we want God's blessings and

> protection or whether we want to play and disregard the gospels.

>

> Verse 9. "who shall be punished with everlasting destruction

> from the presence of the Lord and the from the glory of His power"> listen, only God's elect are allowed around the throne. They are

> called the princes in the millennium and they lot is by the

Father.

> Some people will pay for ever and ever. Well, I am going to repent

at

> the last minute. O you poor mislead succor.

>

> Verse 10. "when He shall come to be glorified in His saints

> and to be admired in all them that believe because our testimony



> among you was believed in that day." did it say you should believe

> John Doe or Jim Fodderbust or some thing…no, our word. God's Word.

He

> didn't say you should believe Arnold Murray or somebody else, he

said

> believe our word, which is God's Word.

>

> Verse 11. "wherefore also we pray always for you that our

God

> would call your worthy of this calling and fulfill all the good

> pleasure of His goodness and the work of faith with power." Idon't

> know. Do you have the power? Beloved, that is a serious question.

If

> you just read and sometimes say `that is nice'. no, exercise it.

> Well, I wish I didn't feel so bad. Use the power! Don't be an old

> dragon do nothing in your own life. Well, I pray for other people

but

> I don't pray for myself. Well, suffer. It is difficult for me to

see,

> well, anyway.

>

> Verse 12 "that the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be

> glorified in you." beloved, that is a wonderful purpose. Cansomeone

> look at you and the Lord Jesus Christ is glorified in your life,

the

> example you set. I know there is none of us perfect. Lord only

knows.

> We all fall short. "and ye in Him, according to the grace of God

in

> the Lord Jesus Christ" what a wonderful calling you do have and it

is

> a calling. And there isn't one of you who hasn't known basically

> since you've been a child that there was more to God's Word and

that

> you were a part of it. And we are closing in on that time when

that

> part must be played, must come to fulfillment. And it shall.

> Now turn with me to Isaiah 61. Now, I just wanted to nail

> that day of vengeance. That's kind of our topic, with the city

being

> encompassed. Let's go back and see what Jesus was really talking

> about in Isaiah 61 so that we can better understand, so that we

can

> get a grip of the sign of that particular day. And it is important

> that all Christians recognize that particular day. And let's go

with

> 61 and pick it up with verse 1 and it reads "the Spirit of the

Lord> God is upon Me." these are the words that Jesus spoke in Luke

chapter

> 4. "because the Lord hath anointed Me to preach good tidings unto

the

> meek" that is to say the humble "He hath sent Me to bind up the

> brokenhearted" that's those that it breaks their heart to seek

satan

> take advantage of their family "to proclaim liberty to the

captive"



> to show them how to free themselves "and to the opening of the

prison

> to them that are bound" bound in the traditions of this world.

Sets

> you free unto the truth. No fly away doctrine but to be an able

> working servant for the living God.

>

> 2. "to proclaim" what is proclaim? It means to make known. I

> mean no, just think about it, say it out loud "to proclaim the

> acceptable day of the Lord" there is where He stopped. Now what is

> the rest of that? Because that is the part that is important toyou

> today. "and the day of vengeance of our God. To comfort them that

> mourn" in other words, it was very important to Him as Messiah to

> make both days known, to proclaim both of them. The day of

vengeance

> and that's why He would say in Luke chapter 21 "when you see

> Jerusalem, Judea compassed" well, now you know, 1300 years, and

there

> was squabbles, yeah all families have squabbles but there really

> wasn't any wars that really were endangered the city. It wasn't

> surrounded. And then bingo, all of the sudden, in 1948, how many

days

> of peace have there been since that time? How many body parts did> they pick up today? Peace, peace, peace. And what? There is no

peace

> there. Gotta watch. He wants to proclaim that day. Hey, our Father

is

> getting tired of it. You do not mock God. Well, let's see what

else

> He says "to appoint unto them that mourn in Zion. To give unto

them

> beauty for ashes" well, that sounds good doesn't it? "the oil of

joy

> for mourning. The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness

that

> they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the

Lord

> that they might be glorified." do you take it from that as the day

of

> vengeance approaches that He intended for you to be a sad sack? I

> don't think so. It should be a joyous occasion for you. It means

our

> Redeemer draweth nigh. It means that we have work to do. It means

> that you can put off that which satan maybe tried to put on you

and

> your family and be joyous. We've got something to celebrate.

That's

> that our Father loves us and that He gives us the time. He gives

us

> the signs if we pay attention to Him and watch the place he wantsus

> to watch.

>

> Verse 4. "and they shall build the old wastes and they shall

> raise up for former desolations and they shall repair the waste

> cities, the desolations of many generations" in other words, after

a

> long period of time "and strangers shall stand and feed your

flocks



> and the sons of the aliens shall be your plowmen and your

> vinedressers" let me ask you a question, what are we going to be

> planting, and growing and sowing in the millennium? Truth. That

means

> that all people, kings and queens of the ethnos, which are

election

> are going to be planting, teaching and working the fields to save

> God's children as many as can be. Pull forth from those ashes.

>

> Verse 6. "but ye shall be named the priests of the Lord. Men

> shall call you the ministers of our God" not satan "ye shall eatthe

> riches of the nations" may I properly translate "and in their

glory

> shall you boast yourselves" it will be something to take joy in,

to

> be happy about. Just to save, you see, many of you have planted

seeds

> recently and they were snuffed out. But when they see you standing

> with the Lord, they are going to say `woa! I should have listened'

> that's important. You see a prophet must always declare before the

> event or he or she is no prophet or prophetest. Therefore, when

you

> plant seed, you are not wasting time. Whether it is received ornot.

> There is a day coming very soon they are going to know that you

know

> what you are talking about. Why? You listen to some man? No. you

> listen to the Word of God.

>

> Verse 7. "for your shame, you should have double" you think

> you could out give God in love and caring? No, He doubles up on

you.

> It makes His day. It makes Him so happy when you stand with

Him "and

> for confusion they shall rejoice in their portion. Therefore in

their

> land, they shall possess the double. Everlasting joy shall be unto

> them" what a beautiful thought. You know, is it worth it, friend?

Is

> it worth it to go through this age putting up with people who will

> not receive the Truth to have double joy forever? I think so. My

> word, this is just a drop in the bucket, friend. You know, if you

are

> already getting tired and discouraged, you haven't seen anything

yet.

> You have to plug in to the right socket, friend to recharge your

> battery, to get power. And that is our heavenly Father. To

understand

> how much He loves you. Now, let's just think on this just a

moment.> What has He done here? He's giving you the time it will happen.

He's

> told you what to look for. He's told you how to spot it, how to

see

> it. And what is in it for you, double portion. That is always a

first

> fruit offering.

>

> Verse 8. "for I the Lord love judgment. I hate robbery of



> burnt offerings" I hate people that play church just to receive a

few

> offerings. That's what He is saying. "and I will direct their work

in

> truth and I will make an everlasting covenant with them" no more
