·         The Lord God and the Most High
·         God the Father was Not the God of the Old Testament
 
We have lots of studies/Transcript Books; we have a catalog and you can order four series at a time.
 
We had a discussion during the break and of all the details of what is right and wrong and this, that and the other thing, the most important thing is that you:
 
·         love God
·         love Christ
·         love the Truth
·         keep the commandments
·         love your neighbor s yourself
 
Then what you have is the right perspective so you don’t get carried away and run off on junkets of some of these things that come along like we’re discussing now. Some of them are disgusting!
 
We’re going to look at a number of Scriptures that tell us the difference between God the Father and Christ.
 
Hebrews 1:1: “God Who spoke to the fathers at different times in the past and in many ways by the prophets, has spoken to us in these last days by His Son… [that is through the New Testament] …Whom He has appointed heir of all things, by Whom also He made the ages” (vs 1-2). That agrees with John 1:1-3!
 
Verse 3: “Who, being the brightness of His glory and the exact image of His person, and upholding all things by the word of His own power…” Remember that Jesus said, the last thing He told the apostles in Matt. 28: All power and authority is given to Me in heaven and in earth! That means that God the Father gave it to Him!
 
“…when He had by Himself purged our sins…” (v 3).
 
The reason that Jesus came to purge our sins is that He was the Lord God of the Old Testament. He was the One Who made Adam and Eve. So, the best sacrifice is for the One Who created them to become flesh and never sin. That sacrifice can cover every human being.
 
If it was God the Father Who was working in the Old Testament, the Most High and not the Lord God under the Most High¸ then the Most High would have had to come in the flesh and be the perfect sacrifice.
 
“…sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high; having been made so much greater than any of the angels, inasmuch as He has inherited a name exceedingly superior to them. For to which of the angels did He ever say, ‘You are My Son; this day I have begotten You’?….” (vs 3-5).
 
That goes back to Psa. 2. The Son did not become the Son until He was impregnated into the womb of the virgin Mary.
 
“…And again, ‘I will be a Father to Him, and He will be a Son to Me’? And again, when He brought the Firstborn into the world, He said, ‘Let all the angels of God worship Him’” (vs 5-6).
 
There are quite a few things in John 1 that help us understand. As a matter of fact, I was looking at when I did the Gospel of John series; that will be 30 years ago. Maybe I ought to do it again.
 
John 1:12: “But as many as received Him…”
 
·         to understand that He was the Son of God
·         to understand that He forgives our sins
·         to understand that He is our High Priest in heaven right now
·         to understand that He will be our soon coming King when He returns
But you
·         receive Him
·         believe Him
·         obey Him
·         love Him
 
That’s all in the word receive!
 
“…to them He gave authority to become the children of God…” (v 12). In the Greek there are two words for child:
 
1.       ‘huios’—singular, a son
·         ‘huio’—plural; offspring in general
·         ‘teknon’--children by the Father
 
That’s why you receive the Holy Spirit as a begettal. That’s why Peter said that ‘you have been begotten again.’ (1-Peter 1). Your first begettal was through your mother and father for physical life. Begotten again is receiving the Holy Spirit so you can become a ‘tekna’ child and all of them together are children—‘teknon’—of God.
 
The Protestants have that from the King James as ‘adoption.’ That’s incorrect! It should be sonship!
 
“…even to those who believe in His name; who were not begotten by bloodlines… [doesn’t matter who you are] …nor by the will of the flesh… [that it’s all planned out] …nor by the will of man, but by the will of God” (vs 12-13).
 
·         What is the will of God? His plan!
·         How has He revealed it? Through His Sabbath and Holy Days!
 
Verse 14: “And the Word became flesh…” That’s what they’re going to end up with! He was like God! He was flesh! And they will misinterpret it and go to Luke 1 and try and prove it that way.
 
“…and tabernacled among us (and we ourselves beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten with the Father), full of grace and truth” (v 14). That’s referring to the Transfiguration!
 
“…full of grace…” is the mercy, truth and love of God! God’s love for you to give you the Holy Spirit and all of that!
 
What is the Holy Spirit called? The Spirit of the Truth! We are sanctified, that is made Holy by the Truth. That’s accomplished by the Holy Spirit by writing the laws and commandments in our heart and mind. That’s why it’s so important when we cover all of these nitty-gritty details that we keep in mind the big picture!
 
Verse 52: “And He said to him, ‘Truly, truly I say to you, hereafter you shall see heaven open, and the angels of God descending to and ascending from the Son of man.’”
 
·         What was it like with Jesus?
·         Were there always angels all around?
 
It would have to be by this! You know that on the Passover Day every detail had to be worked out by the angels and the part that Satan played with Judas.
 
Verse 18: “No one has seen God at any time…” How did Moses speak to God? He spoke to the one who was God, Who was with God! This is saying that no one has seen God the Father, the Most High, at any time! That covers everything in the Old Testament!
 
“…the only begotten Son, Who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him” (v 18).
 
Let’s see that repeated again, and we will look and see exactly what we’ve been talking about here. God’s greatest work is being done with His Holy Spirit in converting our mind. When there is sin, that’s where it is, it’s in the heart and in the mind! It’s quite a thing! The more that you have the Spirit of God in your mind, the more it’s going to reveal to you how much sin is buried in your mind. There’s a lot of it! Why? Because you’ve grown up and have all these other things!
 
Plus, today, we have so much crashing in on us with television, e-mails, iPhones, iPads, Twitter, Facebook, whatever. All of that; everything crashing in on us! There are some people who can’t stand to have it quiet. They get up and they turn on the music. Then they hop in the car and they turn on the music. The ones who are really messed up are the ones who have sound blast through your whole body. When one of those drive by in your neighborhood and it’s booming and the whole neighborhood is vibrating.
 
After Jesus healed the man on the Sabbath and told him to pick up his bed and walk. His bed had to be like a sleeping bag, but the Jews exaggerated with their traditions what it means to not carry a burden. Would it be a burden to carry a knapsack or sleeping bag on your arm. The Jews found the man who was healed and said, ‘Who told you to carry that?’ Well the man who healed me said to ‘pick up your bed and walk.’ ‘Who was it?’ I don’t know. Later he said that it was Jesus, so they found Jesus and here’s the encounter because they wanted to persecute Him:
 
John 5:17: “But Jesus answered them, ‘My Father is working… [present tense participle] …until now, and I work’”--on the Sabbath Day!
 
·         What work is God the Father doing on the Sabbath Day? Spiritual work!
·         What work was Christ doing on the Sabbath Day? Spiritual work!
·         Was He out building a building? No!
ü  He was healing!
ü  He was forgiving!
 
Verse 18: “So then, on account of this saying, the Jews sought all the more to kill Him, not only because He had loosed the Sabbath…”
 
In other words, the only way to keep the Sabbath is the way the Pharisees say, very strictly! But He loosed it! Some people think that that means destroyed the Sabbath or broke the Sabbath! But that’s no so! He loosed it!
 
Remember the Pharisee, the doctor of the law? He asked Jesus which was the greatest commandment. Jesus said, ‘Love God with all your heart, mind, strength and being, and your neighbor as yourself. The doctor of the law said, ‘You answered correctly. But tell me, who is my neighbor?’
 
Then Jesus gave the parable of the man who was on the way up from Jericho to Jerusalem and beaten up by robbers and left to die. Here comes a priest, ‘Oh, I can’t get near that, because I’m going up to work at the temple. I can be unclean.’ So, he didn’t help the man. Here comes a Levite, ‘I can’t do that, I can’t help him; I’m going to go do great things at the temple.’
 
So, here comes a Samaritan, which the Jews hated with a passion! What did he do? He picked the man up and put him on his beast of burden and took him to what we would call a motel, an inn back then, and told the person—after he had dressed his wound and put oil and wine on it. You might think about that in relationship to when you have a wound. He told the innkeeper, ‘Here’s some money and you take care of him and when I come back if I owe you anymore I’ll pay it.
 
Then Jesus looked at the doctor of the law and said, ‘Tell me, which one loved his neighbor?’ Remember, the doctor of the law would not have gone over to help him. He said, ‘I suppose the one who helped him.’
 
“…but also because He had called God His own Father, making Himself equal with God” (v 18). Then He caught them again in John 10.
 
So, after He made Himself equal with God, v 19: “Therefore, Jesus answered and said to them, ‘Truly, truly I say to you, the Son has no power to do anything of Himself, but only what He sees the Father do. For whatever He does, these things the Son also does in the same manner. For the Father loves the Son, and shows Him everything that He Himself is doing….’” (vs 19-20).
 
That shows you part of the communication they had back and forth. I imagine that they were constantly in touch with each other all the time.
 
“…And He will show Him greater works than these, so that you may be filled with wonder. For even as the Father raises the dead and gives life, in the same way also, the Son gives life to whom He will. For the Father judges no one, but has committed all judgment to the Son” (vs 20-22)--because He came in the flesh and experienced all the temptations that we do!
 
He is the One to make the judgment. To whom do we give an account for our lives? Paul writes that we all come before the judgment seat of Christ to give an account for ourselves!
 
Verse 22: “For the Father judges no one…” [they’re going to have trouble with this one!] …but has committed all judgment to the Son so that all may honor the Son, even as they honor the Father. The one who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father Who sent Him” (vs 22-23).
 
What one problem does this reveal? that’s 2,000 years old? that no one can solve? The problem of the Jews! They have rejected Christ and they think that they’re honoring God and they cannot.
 
Look at how awful it has been. Read the book of Jeremiah, and you read what Jesus said when they rejected Him. So, the only thing you can do is have pity on the Jews. It would be great if many more of them would be converted. Remember how many of them were converted when everything first started? They were all Jews the first 12 years!
 
Verse 24: “Truly, truly I say to you, the one who hears My Word, and believes Him Who sent Me, has everlasting life and does not come into judgment; for he has passed from death into life.”
 
That’s why everyday the daily prayer is forgive us our sins as we forgive others! Sometimes it takes a while to complete the second part.
 
Verse 36: “But I have a greater witness than John’s; for the works that the Father gave Me to complete… [to finish] …the very works that I am doing, themselves bear witness of Me, that the Father has sent Me. And the Father Himself, Who sent Me, has borne witness of Me. You have neither heard His voice nor seen His form at any time” (vs 36-37).
 
What happens when you invent your own religion?
 
Verse 38: “And you do not have His Word dwelling in you… [because they base everything on their traditions] …for you do not believe Him Whom He has sent. You search the Scriptures, for in them you think that you have eternal life; and they are the ones that testify of Me. But you are unwilling to come to Me, that you may have life” (vs 38-40).
 
When we get all the Scriptures together referring to Jesus from the Old Testament to the physical life and testimony of Jesus Christ, it’s going to be overwhelming.
 
Verse 41: “I do not receive glory from men; but I have known you, that you do not have the love of God in yourselves” (vs 41-42)--right back to what we’re talking about! All the important details that we have mean nothing unless we have the love of God in us!
 
Verse 43: “I have come in My Father’s name, and you do not receive Me; but if another comes in his own name, you will receive him. How are you able to believe, you who receive glory from one another, and do not seek the glory that comes from the only God?” (vs 43-44). That is because Christ could not be called God while He was in the flesh!
 
Verse 45: “Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father. There is one who accuses you… [present tense, showing that the Law of Moses apply and are binding] …even Moses, in whom you have hope. But if you believed Moses, you would have believed Me; for he wrote about Me. And if you do not believe his writings, how shall you believe My words?” (vs 45-47).
 
Those Scriptures can tell you a lot. That means that Moses wrote about the Lord God Who became Christ. That also means that in order to understand the Scriptures…
 
Luke 24—this is after Christ’s resurrection when He suddenly appeared when they were all gathered together and He ate the fish and honeycomb:
 
Luke 24:44: “And He said to them, ‘These are the words that I spoke to you when I was yet with you, that all the things which were written concerning Me in the Law of Moses and in the Prophets and in the Psalms must be fulfilled.’ Then He opened their minds to understand the Scriptures” (vs 44-45). That’s the work of the Holy Spirit!
 
The key action that we have to have to even begin is the Sabbath. That’s the key; that’s where you start. If you’re searching for God, especially on the Sabbath, when you come to the conclusion that it says, ‘Remember the Sabbath Day to keep it Holy, and you start keeping it Holy from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday, that’s the first key to begin opening your mind.
 
Why? Because then the seven Spirits of God are looking to those who are seeking God, and will come help open your mind! It doesn’t come because of study or theological degrees. It comes by the Spirit of God!
 
The whole Gospel of John talks more about Jesus Christ and what He Himself did than any of the other Gospels.
 
John 8:12: “Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, ‘I am the Light of the world; the one who follows Me shall never walk in darkness, but shall have the Light of Life.’” What is the Light of Life? It is the enlightenment of your mind with the Truth of God!
 
Verse 13: “Therefore, the Pharisees said to Him, ‘You are testifying about Yourself; Your testimony is not true.’ Jesus answered and said to them, ‘Even if I testify about Myself, My testimony is true, because I know where I have come from and where I am going. But you do not know where I come from and where I go’” (vs 13-14).
 
The birth of Christ was in Bethlehem. But the mother and stepfather Joseph[transcriber’s correction] got there just before He was born. They left a little after 40 days later. Gone! When He started His ministry, where did He begin? He did one thing in Jerusalem to fulfill the prophecy that He would ‘suddenly come to His temple’ (John 2).
 
He came in there and what did He do? He made a scourge of cords and chased out all of the animals and threw over the moneychangers! Then He soon left, and most of His ministry was in Galilee and all around there. That’s what bugged the leaders of Judaism more than anything else. He didn’t come to them and align with them.
 
He came to the people whom they neglected. They sent to John to try and find out if it was he. It wasn’t! Then when Jesus came and showed up, they didn’t believe it. When He came back to the temple there (John 5 & 8) it was during the time of a Holy Day. Here in John 8 is right after the Feast of Tabernacles.
 
Verse 15: “You judge according to the flesh; I judge no one. Yet, if I do judge, My judgment is true, for I am not alone; but I and the Father Who sent Me. And it is written in your law that the testimony of two men is true. I AM One Who bears witness of Myself, and the Father, Who sent Me bears witness of Me.’ Then they said to Him, ‘Where is Your Father?’…. [because of all the rumors] …Jesus answered, ‘You know neither Me nor My Father. If you had known Me, you would also have known My Father’” (vs 15-19).
 
Verse 20: “Jesus spoke these words in the treasury while teaching in the temple; but no one arrested Him because His time had not yet come. Then Jesus said to them again, ‘I am going away; and you shall seek Me, but you shall die in your sin. Where I am going, you are not able to come’” (vs 20-21). The Greek there is from dunamis’: you don’t have the power to attain it!
 
Verse 22: “Therefore, the Jews said, ‘Will He kill Himself? Is that why He says, “Where I am going, you are not able to come”?’…. [tie in John 1:1]: …And He said to them, ‘You are from beneath; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world. That is why I said to you that you shall die in your sins; for if you do not believe that I AM, you shall die in your sins’” (vs 22-24).
 
When He said that they knew that was a name of God, v 25: “Then they said to Him, ‘Who are You?’….”
 
1-John 2:20: “But you have the anointing from the Holy One… [the Holy Spirit] …and you have knowledge of all things… [obviously it doesn’t pertain to everything in the world] …pertaining to salvation. I did not write to you because you do not know the Truth, but because you know it, and you understand that not one lie comes from the Truth” (vs 20-21).
 
·         Jesus always told the Truth
·         the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Truth
·         the Word of God is the Word of Truth
 
Verse 22: “Who is the liar if it is not the one who denies that Jesus is the Christ?…. [that tells you about all of those false apostles] …He is the antichrist—the one who denies the Father and the Son. Anyone who denies the Son does not have the Father either” (vs 22-23).
 
That’s the problem of Judaism and false doctrine that God the Father was the One Who was the Lord of the Old Testament. You’re denying that Christ was God before He became a human being.
 
Verse 24: “Therefore, let what you have heard from the beginning dwell in you; if what you have heard from the beginning is dwelling in you, then you will be dwelling in the Son and in the Father.”
 
That’s the problem with Protestantism, very seldom to you hear them talk about the Father. Everything is all about Jesus.
 
It’s important that we cover these things so that we stay grounded! Remember, everything comes back to the fundamentals.
 
·         love God
·         love Christ
·         keep the Sabbath
·         keep the commandments
·         keep the Holy Days
 
That’s the framework on which everything we do is structured! We need to stay close to that!

The main kingdoms of the world throughout the history of this age as shown in Scripture

Verse 18: “But the saints of the Most High shall receive the Kingdom and possess the Kingdom forever, even forever and ever.”
 
Notice how v 19 ties in with Dan. 10:21: “Then I desired to know the truth concerning the fourth beast, which was different from all the others, exceedingly dreadful, whose teeth were of iron and his nails of brass; who devoured, broke in pieces, and stamped the rest with his feet; and of the ten horns that were on his head, and of the other horn which came up, and before whom three fell; even of that horn that had eyes, and a mouth speaking very boastful things, whose appearance was greater than his fellows. I watched, and that same horn made war with the saints and overcame them… [that’s the papacy] …until the Ancient of Days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the Most High…. (vs 19-22). 
 
Here’s where they may say that the Father comes to the earth at the beginning of the Millennium. But it doesn’t say that He came to the earth.
 
“…And the time came that the saints possessed the Kingdom” (v 22). We don’t possess it without the Father giving it to Christ and Christ giving it to us! In that sense He came to fulfill this prophecy. He didn’t come to the earth; doesn’t say that He came to the earth.
 
Verse 23: “Thus he said, ‘The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be different from all the other kingdoms and shall devour the whole earth, and shall trample it and break it in pieces.’”
 
You look around, everything accept maybe some parts of the Orient, are patterned after Rome. All of our government buildings are patterned after Rome. Even in Congress, they have the symbol of Mussolini, the axe on top of a sheaf of wheat.
 
Verse 24: “And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise. And another shall arise after them. And he shall be different from the first, and he shall subdue three kings. And he shall speak words against the Most High…” (vs 24-25). Both of them do!
 
We find that the beast (Rev. 13) blasphemes everybody in heaven, and the one in Rev. 17 speaks words against the Mort High.
 
“…and shall wear out the saints of the Most High…” (v 25). That's the whole history of the Church down through the time until America was founded, really when you get down to it1
 
“…and think to change the set times… [the times that God sets: Sabbath, Passover and Holy Days] …and the laws. And they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and one-half time” (v 25). The persecution down through time, and then there’s a persecution right at the end all over again.
 
Verse 26: “But the judgment shall sit, and his dominion shall be taken away to be consumed and to be destroyed unto the end. And the kingdom and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdom under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people of the saints of the Most High, Whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom. And all kingdoms shall serve and obey Him” (vs 26-27).
 
{please refer to the chart: Right column—Events fulfilled in History}
 
Under The Roman Empire we have the Roman Catholic Church in the west and the Orthodox in the east. We have the Greek Orthodox and the Russian Orthodox
 
Then the three kingdoms which were taken out: the Vandals, the Heruli and the Ostrogoths.
 
Then we have the papacy in a stronger position after that
 
Then there are seven more resurrections of the Roman Empire with an eighth one to come.
 
{coming down to the Holy Roman Empire in 962 A.D.} I wonder if this will happen with the final Beast Power and be crowned by the pope?
 
Hapsburg dynasty--the Austrian Hungarian Empire!
 
Notice that all of these, when you come beginning with Napoleon, they tried to conquer all of Europe and all three of them tried to go into Russia: Napoleon, Kaiser and Hitler. They all tried to control it. We will see that that’s already settled, and people don’t even know it.
 
The Bismarck/Germany
 
If you watch the History Channel you can see quite a bit concerning WWI and WWII, and you talk about how bloody it was in WWI, I mean it was terrible. It was really a slaughter. More soldiers between soldiers. In WWII was a lot of killing of civilians and bombing and burning.
 
Then the final world government
 
We have covered the reports how that the pope has specifically said that God willed for there to be different ‘religions,’ and that they’re all coming to the same place. Everyone of these religions believe in going to heaven: Catholicism, Orthodox, Islam, all the eastern religions have a variation of incarnation and final nirvana, which would be like going to heaven. They’re making overtures to try and work things together.
 
Remember we covered how they’re going to build that Chrislam cathedral, temple, whatever in Abu Dhabi. It will be interesting to see what happens then. Will there be the third vision of Fatima? What will that tell us? All of those things have yet to happen. How far it is down the road, we do not know.
 
Revelation 17:1: “And one of the seven angels who had the seven vials came and spoke with me, saying to me, ‘Come here; I will show you the judgment of the great whore who sits upon many waters.’”
 
The Church is likened to a woman (Rev. 12). The false church is likened to a woman who is harlot and she “…sits upon many waters.”
 
Let the Bible interpret the Bible; v 15: “Then he said to me, ‘The waters that you saw, where the whore sits, are peoples and multitudes and nations and languages.” That’s exactly what the Catholic Church is! Then you throw in all of the other religions.
 
By the way, do you know what the pope said about communism? Communism is much like Christianity! In other words, the same dictatorial system in the Catholic Church is no different than the dictatorial system that the communist have. Only one is ‘religious’ and one is secular and anti-religious.
 
Verse 2: “With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication…”
 
Catholicism and religion is always involved in politics. Look what we have today, wherever it is. Some of it with the Protestants may be a smidgen better. But nevertheless, they still follow Rome. They claim to follow the Bible, and they do to a certain extent.
 
That’s not physical fornication, that is spiritual fornication, “…and those who dwell on the earth were made drunk with the wine of her fornication” (v 2).
 
Do you want to know how that works, look at how people today are going after Christmas. It’s an amazing thing! They think it’s good. I got a magazine and on the cover it says: Christmas Begins with Christ! When you’re drunk you can’t see straight.
 
Verse 3: “Then he carried me away in the spirit to a wilderness; and I saw a woman sitting upon a scarlet beast that had seven heads and ten horns, full of names of blasphemy”--all of them!
 
This chart that we have in Appendix Y explains all of that leading up to today.
 
Verse 4: “And the woman was clothed in purple and scarlet, and was adorned with gold and pearls and precious stones…”
 
Do this: Christmas Mass is coming up pretty soon. Midnight in Rome is not midnight here. So, why don’t you watch it and look at all of the idolatry that goes on with it. Look at what the pope drinks out of for the Eucharist. It’s a big golden cup!
 
“…and she had a golden cup in her hand, filled with abominations and the filthiness of her fornication; and across her forehead a name was written: MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF THE HARLOTS AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH” (vs 4-5).
 
Lots of times we just look and say harlots is just the religion. Well the abominations of the earth, part of the fallout of that is all the atheism, agnosticism and all of the terrible things that go on. They are terrible and evil! Look at the public schools here in California. They’re indoctrinating them into sexual things in the second and third grade. The ones who are pushing it are the alphabet perverts! Once they get in control…
 
Remember what happened in Sodom when the three angels went down to take Lot out? They about tore down Lot’s house to try and get to the three angels! Then the angels made them blind, and in the morning the angels took Lot and his family out. They said, ‘Get out! Get out! You have to leave!’ And Lot’s wife didn’t believe! That’s quite a story. It must have been terrible destruction that happened, because the two daughters said, ‘Look, there’s nobody else alive around, so let’s get our father drunk and have children so that the human race will continue.’ Abominations of the earth!
 
I’ll tell you one big abomination of the earth, who supposedly killed himself in his cell while no one was looking. Two things for President Trump even if you don’t like him:
 
1.       he has stopped an awful lot of this sexual trafficking
2.       he has helped bring down abortions by about 200,000
 
That’s a lot!
 
As we saw with Nebuchadnezzar, God does deal with the leaders, and those who acknowledge God He will honor. How much Trump does it in his private life, I do not know. He’s still blinded by Christmas and all this sort of thing.
Verse 6: “And I saw the woman drunk with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus….” Two categories:
 
1)      those are the saints who are converted
2)   the martyrs are those who believe but were never converted
 
God doesn’t forget them either!
 
“…And after seeing her, I wondered with great amazement. Then the angel said to me, ‘Why are you amazed? I will tell you the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carries her, which has the seven heads and the ten horns. The beast that you saw was, and is not, but is about to come up out of the abyss and to go into perdition…..’” (vs 6-8). This is the last one!
 
“…And those who dwell on the earth, whose names are not written in the Book of Life from the foundation of the world…” (v 8).
 
It’s not that their names are there from the foundation of the earth, it is the Book of Life was there from the foundation of the earth.
 
“…shall be astonished when they see the beast that was, but is not, and yet, is” (v 8).
 
Delores and I have talked about this a lot, and she right on this. The beast that was and is not, and yet is, and shall come up again can be nothing other than Europe as a geographical and governmental and religious territory!
 
Bismarck, Hitler and Napoleon all tried to conquer Russia, but what has happened today? Have you heard of NATO? We’ve thought that was a good, wonderful American alliance, which it was at the time. But 75 years later, what has happened? All of the territory that those three tried to conquer is now part of NATO or seeking to become a member of NATO! You have Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Ukraine, and then you have Romania, Hungry, Greece, Macedonia, Croatia, and Sardinia. All of those are either full members or part members of NATO.
 
What does Pres. Trump want to do in that area? He wants them to pay more for the military! He wants to remove American troops!
 
What is happening in the UK? Boris Johnson looks like he’s going to win in a landslide! That means that the UK will be out of the European Union! They may be temporarily attached to it militarily, but they’re out! What does that do? That puts the two sons of Jacob--Ephraim and Manasseh--outside of the world system for the time being!
 
Let me read you what’s happening and you will see that Delores was right:

Berlin: Leading German politicians are calling for a more aggressive German and EU foreign and military policy, in the run-up to tomorrow’s Bundeswehr public oath-taking ceremony.
 
They take that oath every year, and that is quite a thing. The Valkyrie! Tom Cruise was the main one in the movie and they showed how they tried to assassinate Hitler and they killed some other German leaders. These troops are honored and those who belonged to that every year! They take the oath that never again will there be that kind of dictator. So, the dictator that comes into Europe is going to come in righteous at first, and he won’t take the dictatorial powers until a little later.
 
But let’s see that now that is beginning to become a reality. How many years will that take? Who knows! How many years did it take Hitler when he became chancellor? Twelve years!
 
“Europe must learn the language of power,” says Ursula von der Leyen, the designated EU Commission President, and is demanding to “build our own muscles” militarily.
 
Now that the UK is out, who is the power? Germany! The beast that was, is not—it came to nothing—and yet is. There you go!
 
German Foreign Minster Heiko Maas proposes the creation of a 'European Security Council"…
 
So, it’s involving all members!
 
…with the inclusion of Great Britain…
 
That will be temporary!
 
…because the targeted "Army of the Europeans" cannot forego its armed forces. Berlin has simultaneously approved billions in arms projects. The Bundestag’s budget committee, for example, has approved more than half a billion euros, to also benefit NATO’s “Spearhead,” while the defense committee has approved the procurement of 80 Leopard 2A7V battle tanks worth around 1 billion. To increase acceptance of the Bundeswehr’s foreign missions, the chancellor is calling for support of tomorrow's public oath-taking ceremonies.
 
What they’re now doing is saying that all the German people are cleansed. ‘We have suffered all of this and we have learned our lessons. We want to help build up Europe,’ because they know that the United States is going go. After we leave, that’s when things will start to happen.
 
The Language of Power
 
Following Defense Minister Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer's announcement, last week, of expanding the deployment of the Bundeswehr…
 
Where are they going to deploy them? German troops will be with French troops, Italian troops, Polish troops, Ukrainian troops and all of that sort of thing.
 
…leading German politicians have upped the ante and emphatically called for a more aggressive German and EU foreign and military policy. In her speech at the CDU affiliated Konrad Adenauer Foundation, last Friday, in the German capital, designated EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen claimed that “soft power” is no longer enough in today's world…
 
They’re getting strong!
 
…and "Europe must learn the language of power.”….
 
What is it that your hear? Power makes things work!
 
 [1] On the one hand, “this means building our own muscles” in security policy. On the other, the Union must become "more strategic in light of Europe’s external interests.” Under von der Leyen, the Commission is pursuing its arms buildup plan for the EU, with double-digit billions in euros. [2] Regarding "high-end military capabilities,” EU member states need "full-spectrum land, air, space and maritime capabilities,” according to the “Global Strategy for the European Union,” adopted in 2016. [3] Critics keep insisting that financing military expenditures from EU coffers is inadmissible under the EU treaties—but in vain.
 
They can just say, ‘we’ll change that.’
 
Revelation 17:8: “The beast that you saw was, and is not, but is about to come up out of the abyss…”
 
How does Satan always come? With a benefit! Just think of how fantastic that is going to be for the Europeans to actually think that we can all come together with the pope’s blessing and probably the Orthodox leader blessing as well, and: ‘We can have our own army, our own everything. We don’t have to kowtow to the American at all anymore.’
 
America, at first, will say, ‘That’s great! Think of the billions that we won’t have to pay for NATO, and the billions we won’t have to pay for aid, and the billions we won’t have to pay for keeping the troops in wherever they are in the world. At first, that will sound real good. But you look at the morals of the people—and if you don’t have a challenge at hand—what’s going to happen?
 
“…and to go into perdition. And those who dwell on the earth, whose names are not written in the Book of Life from the foundation of the world, shall be astonished when they see the beast that was, but is not, and yet, is. Here is the mind that has wisdom: The seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman sits” (vs 8-9)--and there are seven hills in Rome!
 
Verse 10: “And there are seven kings…” Those are symbolic; what happened with every one of these seven kings? Who ordained them? The pope!
 
“…five are fallen, and one is, and the other has not yet come… [that’s what we’re seeing develop here now] …and when he has come, it is ordained that he remain a little while” (v 10).
 
Tie that together in the sermon The Consummation of the Age about the last seven years. The first three and a half are going to be glorious, wonderful, marvelous, miracles, everybody is happy and doing the right thing. The blessings of the pope, governments are getting along, people are loving one another, and then what happens? The King of the South doesn’t like it! He comes after the King of the North, and that starts the cascade leading right directly into the Tribulation. This is quite a thing that’s developing.
 
Verse 12: “And the ten horns that you saw are ten kings, who have not yet received a kingdom, but shall receive authority as kings for one hour with the beast…. [that will be a very short time] …These all have one mind, and shall give up their power and authority to the beast. These will make war with the Lamb, but the Lamb shall overcome them; for He is Lord of lords and King of kings, and those who are with Him are called, and chosen, and faithful” (vs 12-14). Quite a tremendous thing!
 
We can understand this a little more because of the times that we are living in, and we can see that, yes, this is happening.
 
Revelation 13:1: “And I stood on the sand of the sea; and I saw a beast rising up out of the sea… [Didn’t we read that in Daniel? Yes, we did!] …having seven heads and ten horns, and on his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. And the beast that I saw was like a leopard… [Dan. 7] …and his feet like the feet of a bear… [Dan. 7] …and his mouth like the mouth of a lion… [Dan. 7] …and the dragon gave him his power, and his throne and great authority” (vs 1-2).
 
What power do you think he’s going to have? I’ve mentioned this a couple of times in the past, but I still firmly believe that it’s going to happen. The Cern cyclotron underground in Switzerland—the Hadron Collider—is probably going to make some sort of fantastic discovery that will give the beast—the European Power, who will be personified in the beast—the ability to keep people from making war.
 
Verse 3: And I saw one of his heads as if it were slain to death…” This comes right at the end of three and a half years, the first three of the last seven is going to be a marvelous thing indeed!
 
“…but his deadly wound was healed; and the whole earth was amazed and followed the beast” (v 3). That’s when they give their authority to the beast! He rises up and now:
 
We need to get the whole world order together. All of these people fighting against us need to be brought down into submission.
 
Verse 4: “And they worshiped the dragon, who gave his authority to the beast. And they worshiped the beast, saying, ‘Who is like the beast? Who has the power to make war against him?’” That will be short-lived!
 
·         What’s hanging in the North and the East?
·         What does China want to try and do? Take over the world!
 
So, they’re over there and seeing all of this; it’s going to be quite a thing!
 
Verse 5: “And a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies was given to him… [Dan. 7] …and authority was given to him to continue for forty-two months”--three and a half years by months! After the deadly wound was healed, he continues for three and a half years or 42 months.
 
Verse 6: “And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, and His tabernacle, and those who dwell in heaven. And he was given power to make war against the saints, and to overcome them; and he was given authority over every tribe and language and nation” (vs 6-7)--for a short time! Then it all falls apart!
 
Keep your eyes on what’s happening in Europe, and keep your eyes on what’s happening in Germany. Guess who’s going to Europe on Dec. 3? Pres. Trump and NATO is going to meet there. Look what’s happening in the background when he gets over there. They’re going to come up to him and say,
 
Pres. Trump, you’re right, we’re going to commit more to the defense of NATO. We need to stand on our own two feet.
And he’s going to say, ‘You’re absolutely right! It’s about time you understand it!’
 
Right at first that will look like a wonderful thing. What will it do for America? For a while it will make things better! But what’s going to happen in Europe? We’ll have to wait and see!
