God’s Words to the Gentiles: full transcript and answers
Gray boxes are our own short answers and summaries.
In this message Pastor David G. Kincer teaches from Isaiah 34 and Revelation 6 about God’s dealing with the Gentiles: the ungodly and secular humanists. He argues that the stars falling and the sun darkening are not allegory, that Esau and the ten virgins show a door that closes, and that God’s purpose in judgment is to win the nations to Christ. He closes with two family stories to show how far parents go for their children, and says God wants even his opponents to live.
Who are the Gentiles in Isaiah 34, and what does God ask of them?
Short answer: He says Isaiah 34 is “God’s word to the Gentiles,” meaning “the ungodly, the heathen, the nations, the people that don’t believe in Jesus.” He says God asks two things of them, “hear, number one, and heed, number two,” and that the church has the responsibility to speak because “without a preacher” they cannot hear.
▶ 0:00 In Isaiah 34, he’s going to directly deal with the Gentiles. This session is entitled “God’s Word to the Gentiles,” the ungodly, the heathen, the nations, the people that don’t believe in Jesus, don’t believe that the Bible is God’s word and truth, they don’t follow Jesus. So Isaiah 34:1, “Come near, you Gentiles,” this is how Isaiah starts out. Now, he’s been hitting the church pretty hard for the last 30 chapters, but now Isaiah has focused his attention on the unchurched, the
▶ 0:53 ungodly. “Come near, you Gentiles, come near,” and that’s what Jesus, “Come unto me, all you that labor and are heavy laden, I will give you rest.” And there’s two things that God asked for the Gentiles to do: hear, number one, and heed, number two. If we don’t obey the word, it doesn’t do us any good to have heard the word. And how are they going to hear? The Bible says, without a preacher, and so the church has the responsibility of speaking up for truth. Could that be an amen? And it isn’t like God’s going to speak from heaven, “You Gentiles,” he’s going to send you to speak to them and to get them to obey the word of God. The people is the Gentiles that he’s talking to. “Let the earth hear, and all that is in it.” Now, the earth is a specific
Scripture in this part
Isaiah 34:1-2 (NKJV)
Come near, you nations, to hear; And heed, you people! Let the earth hear, and all that is in it, The world and all things that come forth from it. For the indignation of the LORD is against all nations, And His fury against all their armies; He has utterly destroyed them, He has given them over to the slaughter.
— Isaiah 34:1-2 (NKJV)▶ Hear it at 0:29Matthew 11:28 (NKJV)
Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
— Matthew 11:28 (NKJV)▶ Hear it at 0:58What does he say about life in space and God’s anger at the nations?
Short answer: He says “there’s only one Earth,” that “there is no life out there in space,” and that “science fiction is exactly what it is, fiction.” He says God’s “fury is against all their armies,” and that an army can also be the word, used to convince people of a philosophy.
▶ 1:55 planet. It’s not Mars, it’s not Jupiter, it’s not some earthlike planet ultra light years away. There’s only one Earth, there’s only one civilization that God made, there is no life out there in space, the Bible never says there is, he always speaks to the planet Earth. Can I hear an amen? Hallelujah. Science fiction is exactly what it is, fiction, all right, I love it, but it’s fiction. “The world,” or mankind, the world is mankind and all things that come from mankind, “come near and hear.” So he’s directly addressing those that are not his people. Verse 2, “For the indignation,” or anger, “the wrath of the Lord is against all the
▶ 2:56 Gentiles.” Okay, he’s angry. None of you have ever been angry, you wouldn’t understand that, but God’s angry. “His fury is against all their armies.” The army is the authority, the might that a people, uh, use to force their propaganda on others or defend their philosophies from others, and an army that we forget about is the word. A lot of people use the word, and they convince people with the army of the word, speaking information, knowledge, to convince people, and we forget that it’s not always swords and spears and, and, uh, atomic bombs and so
What does he mean by “past tense,” and what is secular humanism?
Short answer: He says Isaiah speaks of the Gentiles’ destruction in the past tense because “God has ordained it and it’s going to happen,” as Jesus “died before the foundation of the world.” He reads Psalm 9:19 and then says secular humanism is a group of Gentiles in our day, and quotes the humanist manifesto as saying there is no God and that the Bible is a book of myths.
▶ 3:51 forth. “He’s utterly destroyed,” past tense, he’s utterly destroyed them, “he has given them over to slaughter,” past tense. You see, it’s just like the Bible says that Jesus died before the foundation of the world, God, and the Bible also says in Revelation that Jesus was the beginning of creation, before anything else, God the Son, Jesus was the plan, he died, all right, past tense, before he said, “Let there be light.” Jesus had died, past tense, and then he came in the flesh and died for the sins of the world and caused it to happen. This is the same terminology here, past tense. God has ordained it and it’s going to happen, whether you like it or not, whether you believe in it or not, it’s as good as done, past tense.
▶ 4:49 Amen. Psalm 9:19, “Let not man prevail, put them in fear, oh Lord, that the Gentiles may know themselves to be but men.” See, this is the cry of the Holy Spirit: Lord, put them in fear, so that mankind comes to the understanding that they’re just humans and you are the supernatural God. Hallelujah. So we just happen to have a group of people in our day that are Gentiles, ungodly, they’re called the religion of secular humanism. This is the global icon of the secular humanist movement all over the world, trying to spread their propaganda, trying to spread their philosophy and their doctrine. This is the icon for the American Humanist Association: “Good without God.” Don’t need no God. The humanist manifesto, as we shared earlier, the humanist manifesto created in [unclear] and 30s says there is no God, the, the universe always existed, it was not created,
▶ 6:09 prayer will not help anyone, the Bible is just a book of myths with a lot of errors in it, a lot of, uh, erroneous things in it, contradictory things. They said all this in the manifesto. In the manifesto they said that the institutes and the associations, the families and the churches have to be converted, they have to be rebuilt, and they got to be rebuilt and converted to what we say that will help humanity and mankind. That’s right in their manifesto, okay. They also said that the present financial system of America, which was capitalism, is obsolete, and we
Scripture in this part
Psalm 9:19-20 (NKJV)
Arise, O LORD, Do not let man prevail; Let the nations be judged in Your sight. Put them in fear, O LORD, That the nations may know themselves to be but men. Selah
— Psalm 9:19-20 (NKJV)▶ Hear it at 4:50Isaiah 34:1-2 (NKJV)
Come near, you nations, to hear; And heed, you people! Let the earth hear, and all that is in it, The world and all things that come forth from it. For the indignation of the LORD is against all nations, And His fury against all their armies; He has utterly destroyed them, He has given them over to the slaughter.
— Isaiah 34:1-2 (NKJV)▶ Hear it at 0:29What does he say the propaganda war in the schools is, and what does he say about charity?
Short answer: He says “we are in a propaganda war, we are in a war of philosophy,” and says humanists declared they would win in the public schools and universities. He says that charitable giving is used to argue that “you don’t need God to be good,” and that churches that focus on social programs have fallen into that, while “the gospel of Jesus Christ for salvation is the highest level.” He names wealthy donors in the transcript; those names are not repeated here.
▶ 7:03 must give everybody their fair share. We need social programs, social programs is the answer to America and mankind’s problems, right in their manifesto. And most Christians do not understand that we are in a propaganda war, we are in a war of philosophy, a war of speech, not always with guns and tanks and airplanes, but speech. And they said publicly, and they declared it emphatically, that the war they were going to wage was going to be in the public school classrooms and the universities of America, and they said, “We will win this war because we have them five days a week and the church only has a fraction of them for one hour on Sunday.” And, folks, 80 years have gone by, they pretty much won this battle. They got Christians dumbed down that we can’t even think right anymore, and this is people that publicly declare there is no God, the Gentiles, the ungodly, no Jesus, no Bible, they publicly declare
▶ 8:20 it. Here is a advertisement for the, uh, humanistic religion, put out by the Secular Student Alliance. Secular Student Alliance, Billy Gates, we all know him, the second richest person in the world, they said donated 26 billion to charity. Billy Gates is good without God, they said. The third richest person, Warren Buffett, pledged to give 90%, of, 99% of his wealth to charity when he dies. Warren Buffett is good, they said, without God. What’s their emphasis? If you have a social program, you are good. You don’t need God to be good, and what’s their good? Helping somebody. Helping somebody. And the church has fallen into that. Many of the churches in America are centered now on social programs, and they think because they help people that they have attained the highest level of Christianity, and it’s not true. The gospel of Jesus Christ for salvation is the highest level, and to grow in him, that is the goal of God.
What does Isaiah 34:4 say about the heavens being rolled up?
Short answer: He says it is unfair that humanists can teach in classrooms while believers cannot. He reads Isaiah 34:4, that “all the host of heaven shall be dissolved,” and says that is the “when” of God’s dealing with the nations. He says it “takes a supernatural God to perform something like this” and that people who call it an allegory will find out.
▶ 9:41 Amen, amen. You can’t substitute that, but they’ve got us dumbed down. The religion of secular humanism, clergy in the classroom, this book. You see, they said, say there has to be a separation of church and state, but it’s okay for humanists to go into the classrooms and teach their religion in the classrooms, but no one that believes the Bible, no one that believes in Christ has a right to go in, it’s, it’s, it’s bigoted, it’s not fair, it’s not the American way. Could that be an amen? Hallelujah. And we let them get away with it. So we’re going to go on in Isaiah 34, and we’re going to see clarity of God dealing with the Gentiles. This is very
▶ 10:38 powerful. When will he deal with them? Isaiah 34:4, “All the host of heaven shall be dissolved,” they will decay. Now, folks, that’s a big undertaking. The universe is huge, and God says there’s going to be a time when it’s going to decay, it’s going to rot away, it’s going to be dissolved. That’s the when, okay. “The heavens shall be rolled up like a scroll.” Now, that’s a big undertaking, this universe is huge, and God say he going to roll it up as a scroll. You roll a scroll up, you still have part of the scroll there. “All their host,” all the stars, all the planets, “shall fall down as a leaf from the vine,” and the [unclear].
Scripture in this part
Isaiah 34:4-6 (NKJV)
All the host of heaven shall be dissolved, And the heavens shall be rolled up like a scroll; All their host shall fall down As the leaf falls from the vine, And as fruit falling from a fig tree. “For My sword shall be bathed in heaven; Indeed it shall come down on Edom, And on the people of My curse, for judgment. The sword of the LORD is filled with blood, It is made overflowing with fatness, With the blood of lambs and goats, With the fat of the kidneys of rams. For the LORD has a sacrifice in Bozrah, And a great slaughter in the land of Edom.
— Isaiah 34:4-6 (NKJV)▶ Hear it at 10:40Why does he say Edom and Esau picture the Gentile humanist?
Short answer: He says God speaks of “Edom, the people of my curse,” and links it to Hebrews 12, where Esau “for one morsel of meat sold his birthright.” He calls that “your social program,” and says the birthright to us today is “being born again, born of the word, born of the Spirit.”
▶ 11:30 Folks, a sun, our sun is 100 times bigger than our earth, and there’s all kinds of suns out there. A sun, a star is one that radiates light, planets and other things reflect light. Okay, now, it takes a supernatural God to perform something like this. People say, “Well, it’s just an allegory,” like, uh, uh, Fox News guy Bill [unclear], “Yeah, it’s just a book, it’s an allegory.” We’ll see, we’ll see if it’s an allegory. All right, you know, they got us so dumbed down, we just think like they tell us to think. Now, “my sword shall be bathed in heaven, indeed it shall come down on Edom.” So now he’s talking about the who, he’s talking about the when, “I show wonders in the heavens,” and who is going to be influenced at that time? “I’m going to come down on Edom, the people of my curse.” A curse is something that is put on someone that they can’t change, something bad’s going to happen to them. And he used the word Edom, why? Because in Hebrews 12:6, “lest there be any fornicator or godless person,” Gentile,
▶ 12:54 humanist, “as Esau.” Esau is Edom, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright. There’s your social program. The guy, you know, he was cocky and arrogant, and he always went out and hunted deer and brought things on, but he didn’t get anything this week, every time he went out he didn’t bring back any meat, and he got hungry, and instead of going to Mom and Dad’s house and getting something to eat, he went to his brother, and his brother said, “Hey, you know, in my social program you got to sell your soul. I’ll give you a bowl of soup if you’ll give me your birthright.” See, the birthright was to the firstborn, and he got the spiritual inherited
▶ 13:46 blessing, and Esau didn’t care anything about spiritual things. Yeah, he said, “Sure, you’re going to have the birthright, give me the b— man, give me the social program.” Birthright to us today is being born again, born of the word, born of the Spirit, God actually coming and birthing us in his truth and in his presence, in his Spirit. He goes on to say, “For you know that afterward, when Esau would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no place of repentance.” Now, you get that? “He found no place of repentance, though he sought repentance carefully with tears.” There was no repentance, and this really bothered me when I was a young Christian, and I didn’t understand the full knowledge of God, but later I understood, and you’re going to understand it
Scripture in this part
Hebrews 12:16-17 (NKJV)
lest there be any fornicator or profane person like Esau, who for one morsel of food sold his birthright. For you know that afterward, when he wanted to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no place for repentance, though he sought it diligently with tears.
— Hebrews 12:16-17 (NKJV)▶ Hear it at 12:45What do the ten virgins and Esau show about repentance?
Short answer: He says Esau “found no place of repentance,” and compares it to the ten virgins in Matthew 25, five wise and five foolish. He says “when you die, you can’t repent after that,” and when Jesus comes for final judgment “there’s no repentance, you had your chance, the door’s shut.”
▶ 14:57 today. Hallelujah. Okay, the word “afterward” is the same word used in Matthew 25, verse 10, where he’s talking about the ten virgins. Five were wise and five were foolish, they were all designated to be the bride of the bridegroom, five were wise and five were foolish, five had oil in their lamps, they were ready anytime the bridegroom came, they were ready. Five did not, have their lamps went out. The Bible says their lamps what? Went out. No light. The word is light, our right behavior is light. See, “let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works,” not your good faith, your good works, not your good grace, but your good works. Say it: good works. See, that’s light. They had no good works. The Bible says, “Thy word is a lamp unto my feet,” thy word is light. So they had no word, and they had no action to back up the moral words. So the bridegroom came, and the five wise went out to meet the bridegroom, he took them in to the banqueting dinner and shut the door. Well, now the other five virgins go, “Oops, we got to get with the program.” They went and got some
▶ 16:27 word, and they started doing some good deeds, and then they come and they knock on the door. “Hey, bridegroom! Hey, bridegroom! Here we are, here we are.” And the bridegroom says, “Sorry, the door’s shut. Depart from me, I never knew you.” See, there is a place, and when you die, you can’t repent after that, you’re accountable, and when Jesus comes for that final judgment, there’s no repentance, you had your chance, the door’s shut. So, Esau, some time goes by, some years go by, and it’s time to pass on the birthright, and Jacob calls his sons in, and you, and he’s going to bless, and he, and he thinks, because his wife has some spiritual understanding that Jacob didn’t have, and that just kills some
▶ 17:33 men. God enlightened Rebecca that what was going on in that family, and Jacob didn’t know, but Jacob’s going to find out. So Jacob’s ready to pass on the birthright. And, uh, I’m sorry, Isaac, and Jacob brings in a lamb, camouflages it to be venison or whatever, and cooks it up, his mother cooked it up, and he got the birthright. Okay, he got the birthright. Then comes in Esau, afterward. Afterward. And he says, “Hey, I’m here, give me the birthright, give me the blessing.” He said, “Hey, it’s already done, it’s too late, it’s, you should have repented yesterday, you should have repented last year, you should have changed your mind long ago. It’s happened, it’s done, the door is closed.” You got it, church? Hallelujah. That’s the
Scripture in this part
Matthew 25:1-13 (NKJV)
“Then the kingdom of heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. Now five of them were wise, and five were foolish. Those who were foolish took their lamps and took no oil with them, but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. But while the bridegroom was delayed, they all slumbered and slept. “And at midnight a cry was heard: ‘Behold, the bridegroom is coming; go out to meet him!’ Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps. And the foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’ But the wise answered, saying, ‘No, lest there should not be enough for us and you; but go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.’ And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding; and the door was shut. “Afterward the other virgins came also, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open to us!’ But he answered and said, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, I do not know you.’ “Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.
— Matthew 25:1-13 (NKJV)▶ Hear it at 15:04What do Isaiah 34:8 and 34:16 say about vengeance and reading the book?
Short answer: He reads Isaiah 34:8, “the day of the Lord’s vengeance,” and says it is the “payment for the cause of Zion,” the church that was mocked. He reads Isaiah 34:16 and says: “I trust you are a studier of the book,” and to find out what God says “in the book” and not “on the internet and on TV and radio.”
▶ 18:36 people that have no interest in God, no interest in the word. There’s a curse on them. There’s a plan, God’s going to deal with them. Now, going down to Isaiah 34:8, “For it is the day of the Lord’s vengeance,” when God moves in the heavenlies and he deals with the Gentiles, the humanists, those without God, the atheists, and all those people. “It’s vengeance, the year of recompense,” payment, “for the cause of Zion.” Zion is the church, Zion is the people of God. They mocked them, they ridiculed them, they talked about them, they mistreated them, they didn’t want anything to do with them, and God says it’s time you paid up. That’s what this is all about.
▶ 19:29 This time of the Gentile. Okay, Isaiah 34:16, “Seek ye out of the book of the Lord and read.” I trust you are a reader of the book, I trust you are a studier of the book, I trust you go to Bible studies to learn this book and not just believe what people say on the internet and on TV and radio, but you find out what God says in the book. “Not one of these shall fail,” neither the stars falling, the universe rotting away, nor my dealing with a g— none of this stuff is going to fail. I’m going to show mankind that they’re mere men and I am a supernatural God. Now we go on to another account of the scroll, the stars, and the wrath. Okay, over in
Scripture in this part
Isaiah 34:8 (NKJV)
For it is the day of the LORD’s vengeance, The year of recompense for the cause of Zion.
— Isaiah 34:8 (NKJV)▶ Hear it at 18:49Isaiah 34:16 (NKJV)
“Search from the book of the LORD, and read: Not one of these shall fail; Not one shall lack her mate. For My mouth has commanded it, and His Spirit has gathered them.
— Isaiah 34:16 (NKJV)▶ Hear it at 19:32What does the sixth seal in Revelation 6 say about stars falling?
Short answer: He reads Revelation 6:12–14 and says “these are stars fallen, not rocks. A meteor is a rock,” so meteor showers are not the fulfillment. He argues it is not an allegory and points to the star that led the wise men as a supernatural sign.
▶ 20:23 Revelations chapter 6:2, “He opened the sixth seal.” Okay, the sixth seal, there was seven seals, this is the sixth one, there is still one more seal to open, there are seven trumpets to blow, and there’s seven bowls of God’s dealing with this world to come. This is the sixth one, are you with me? Hallelujah. The seventh trumpet hasn’t blown, the final trumpet hasn’t blown, this is the sixth seal. Now, “there was a great earthquake, the sun became black, the moon became as blood, and the stars of heaven fell to earth.” He is specific this time, they didn’t just fall, they fell to the earth. How do stars fall on the earth? He’s a supernatural
▶ 21:17 God, he can do anything he says he can do, we’re limited to our human intelligence. Now, these are stars fallen, not rocks. A meteor is a rock. Don’t mistake these meteor showers we have for the fulfillment of this verse, are you with me? He didn’t say rocks are going to fall from heaven, he said stars are going to fall. Hallelujah. Now, people say, “Well, it’s an allegory.” Really? An allegory, huh? Are we aware that this had partially already happened at Jesus’s birth? What led the wise men to Christ? What led them? A star. How can a star lead anybody to Christ? They’re too far away, and “stand right over, stand right over the house where Jesus was,” it’s too high up there, I can’t do that. There was a supernatural work there,
Scripture in this part
Revelation 6:12-14 (NKJV)
I looked when He opened the sixth seal, and behold, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became like blood. And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, as a fig tree drops its late figs when it is shaken by a mighty wind. Then the sky receded as a scroll when it is rolled up, and every mountain and island was moved out of its place.
— Revelation 6:12-14 (NKJV)▶ Hear it at 20:23What does he say about the three hours of darkness at the cross?
Short answer: He says history recorded the darkness as an eclipse but “a solar eclipse only lasts 7.4 seconds,” so three hours of darkness is “a supernatural demonstration of God.” He says the church does not have to defend whether the word of God is true but to preach it. The 7.4-second figure is as captioned.
▶ 22:28 probably an angel. All right, also when Jesus died, how many hours was the earth dark? Three hours. Well, in history they recorded this time as an eclipse. These records of history recorded there was an eclipse at this time, and everybody go, “Okay, an eclipse happened.” No. Are you aware that a solar eclipse only lasts 7.4 seconds? You’re not aware of that, I can tell. Never even thought of it. Yeah. And how long was this eclipse? Three hours. Now, folks, either way, it’s a supernatural demonstration of God, whether he just caused the sun to go dark or whether he stopped
▶ 23:28 the moon right in the center, either one is a what? Supernatural miracle, beyond man’s knowledge, beyond man’s capabilities. And see, we just, we just right away, we just, we just push aside somebody tells us, the human is tell us there an eclipse, there can’t be any, any, uh, uh, miracles, the humanist in their manifesto, so there is no miracles, there is no supernatural thing. And so they always got to give a reason why the Red Sea parted and why the frogs came out and why the ax could swim and why, why, why he’s God, and it’s supernatural, and I don’t have to argue that the word of God is true or not, I just have to preach
▶ 24:20 it. See, they got us on the defense, trying to defend whether the word of God is true or not, whether God is real or not, whether God is a— or not. I don’t have to argue that point with you. The only reason I argue with you and debate with you is to show you the error of your false science. I’m not trying to, to prove the truth of God’s word, I already know it’s truth because I met the man Jesus, who is the word of truth. Amen. Jesus, as one person said, the grave’s empty, he’s not there, he’s alive, he’s alive. I don’t have to go any further than that. I don’t have to prove to you humanist anything, I’m not going to get into debates with you, I’m going to keep bringing you to the cross, I’m going to keep bringing you to righteousness, I’m going to keep bringing you to Jesus, because that is the power that will save
Scripture in this part
Matthew 27:45 (NKJV)
Now from the sixth hour until the ninth hour there was darkness over all the land.
— Matthew 27:45 (NKJV)▶ Hear it at 22:44What does he say about the earthquake, the rocks and historical records?
Short answer: He says the whole earth was dark and the earth shook at the crucifixion, and “everybody was aware something is going on.” He says the rocks split and the tombs opened, and cites a letter from a Roman governor to the emperor and a mention of Christ by a Jewish historian, saying skeptics “twist everything.” These historical claims are his and are not verified by this site.
▶ 25:17 men. Hallelujah. Not only did the sun get dark, the earth shook, there was a tremendous earthquake, and the, and the, and the whole earth was dark. How many know you can’t have an eclipse on the other side of the earth with an eclipse on this side of the earth? Yeah, it can’t happen both ways. But see, darkness covered the earth, this earthquake covered the earth, South America, who wasn’t even noted yet, hadn’t been founded yet, North America, they all shook, the island shook, everybody was aware something is going on somewhere in this world that is different. So, Bill O’Reilly, don’t tell me this book is just a book of allegories illustrating truth, unless you have the right allegory that illustrates the right truth. Could that be an amen? Amen. Was there a real fish that swallowed Jonah? Yes, it’s not an allegory, it really happened. Allelujah. Now, the rock split. Now you got some big rocks,
▶ 26:28 you know, Jerusalem’s full of rocks, probably some of them are bigger than that, because they split when Christ ro— the ground broke up into a little more p— there rocks all over the place, and the secular scientists never even think that a lot of the earth’s formation was changed right here. Big earthquakes, rocks rending, there was a shaken. The tombs were open around Jerusalem, tombs were open, graves were open. Man. And according to historical records, and anytime they talk about Jesus in historical records, the humanists, the atheists say it’s a lie, you know, it isn’t true, you know, they, they fabricated it, they made it up. What? Well, there was
▶ 27:30 records of this eclipse, they called it an eclipse, and that’s what men will do, right, they will try to find some rational, you know, solution to this. But also Pilate wrote Caesar a letter about this event and told Caesar that the earth was dark for three hours and the stars came out, you could see them. Wow, huh. Woo, are you there? Hallelujah. And he talked about the earthquake, but also he said that night that the moon was red like blood. Hallelujah. And Josephus mentions Christ, and of course they attack Josephus, the historian, saying, “Oh, he just, somebody put that in, Josephus didn’t put it in.” That’s what humanists do, they lie, they twist everything, that’s what atheists do, that’s what our, our, our opponents do, the liberals, the hedonists, the humanists, the religionists, the evolutionists, all these people that are opposing Christ, that’s what they do, they just twist things around and they get our young people frustrated and
Scripture in this part
Matthew 27:51-53 (NKJV)
Then, behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom; and the earth quaked, and the rocks were split, and the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised; and coming out of the graves after His resurrection, they went into the holy city and appeared to many.
— Matthew 27:51-53 (NKJV)▶ Hear it at 26:23What does Revelation 6:14 say, and what does he say about science and galaxies?
Short answer: He reads Revelation 6:14, “heaven departed as a scroll,” and says God moves mountains and islands. He says scientists’ pictures of our galaxy are “a false picture” because you cannot photograph a galaxy from inside it, and that “it’s not an allegory” since the Old Testament and Revelation say the sun will be darkened. These are his claims.
▶ 28:51 confused. Now, Revelation 6:14, “Heaven departed as a scroll,” there’s that word again, as a what? Scroll, rolled up. “Oh, every mountain and island was moved.” There is that earthquake again. You know, scientists think they’re really smart cuz they discovered the plates in the ocean, well, God is the one moving these things. Where do they see Hawaii move over about 500 miles? Are you there? Allelujah. See, he’s going to expose human thinking before he comes back, he’s going to demonstrate his power before he comes back and leave no doubt that he is God and you’re just humans. “You analyze what I did, I do it.” Amen.
▶ 29:45 Now, here is a false picture of our galaxy. Everybody wants a picture of our galaxy and they think that’s our galaxy, but how do you take a picture of a galaxy when you’re in it? You ever try to take a picture of the outside of your house when you’re in it? Yeah, a little difficult, isn’t it? So they got pictures of other galaxies, so they assimilated our galaxy from pictures of other galaxies. You notice this bright light in the middle? Have you ever noticed that? Or do you even read this stuff? I love reading, I love research, and I love science, and I love to expose false science. Every galaxy has this bright light in the middle, every one of them that they have pictures of, very interesting. Okay, we are here on the edge of our galaxy, the earth and the moon and so
▶ 30:54 forth. Now, folks, he says the sun’s going to be dark, the stars are going to be dark, and bam, he can supernaturally do it. Do you know it says three times in Revelation that the sun’s going to be darkened? So it’s obvious it gets dark and bright again, it gets dark and bright again, three times. Are you aware that the Old Testament prophets spoke about the sun being darkened, the moon being darkened, five times? I submit to you it’s not an allegory. God’s going to do something to get the attention of mankind and show that he is God and he is truth, and they’ve been lying to us this whole time. Amen. Hallelujah, we got a great big wonderful God. “Kings of the earth.” Now, he’s going to hit the who, who’s going to be impacted by this time? “Kings of the earth, great men, rich men, chief captains, mighty men, bondmen, and every free man.” And remember that, every free man. You see, the Gentiles are free from God, free from the Bible, free from Bible
Scripture in this part
Revelation 6:12-14 (NKJV)
I looked when He opened the sixth seal, and behold, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became like blood. And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, as a fig tree drops its late figs when it is shaken by a mighty wind. Then the sky receded as a scroll when it is rolled up, and every mountain and island was moved out of its place.
— Revelation 6:12-14 (NKJV)▶ Hear it at 28:53Why does he say the free men hide, and who hated the king in Luke 19?
Short answer: He says “every free man,” free from God and the Bible, will face God, and reads Luke 19:14, “his citizens hated him.” He says humanists openly declare “their hatred, their detest for God,” and that people want Jesus without being told what to do. He also says Romans teaches Gentiles who never heard the law can be saved by following their conscience.
▶ 32:12 morality. They are free, and he says “every free man,” whether you’re a bondman, whether you’re a mighty man or whatever, every one of you that’s free from God, free from the Bible, I’m going to deal with you. “And they hid in the dens and the rocks of the mountains.” Okay, now you got to understand there is a final judgment coming for humanists, there’s a final judgment when you can’t be repented anymore, there’s no, your time of repentance is before that. Okay, Luke 19:14, “The king’s citizens hated him.” This is Jesus telling in a parable of the kingdom, where a nobleman went into a far country to obtain a kingdom. Okay, his citizens. How many know the earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof? How many know we’re all the sheep of his pasture, whether you’re a white sheep or a black sheep or a spotted sheep, you’re still, what? A citizen of God. “His citizens hated him.” Isn’t that what the humanists are declaring, their hatred, their detest for God? Isn’t it?
▶ 33:32 Yes, openly, they’re not ashamed to talk about it at all, they’re, they detest, their hatred for God. “And they send a delegation after the nobleman,” which is represented by Jesus Christ, “We will not have you to rule over us.” We don’t want you ruling over, we don’t want you telling us what’s right and wrong, we don’t want you telling us what to do. Isn’t that the basic goal of people who don’t want Jesus? They want to do their own thing. See, they have no problem believing in Jesus if they can keep on living the way they want. But see, the Bible says there’s two ways to get eternal life. One, John 3:16, is to believe on Jesus, trust in him, you will have everlasting life. The second one is when they come to Jesus, the rich young ruler, and said, “What must I do to have eternal life?” He says, “Keep the commandments.” And keeping the commandments is so important that in
▶ 34:37 Romans, the writer of Romans says that the Gentiles who have not heard the law, never heard about Jesus, they will be saved by following their conscience of right and wrong. And hardly any preacher preaches, “We got to keep God’s word, that’s part of eternal life, bringing forth fruit, doing good deeds, that’s part of eternal life.” Can I hear it? Amen. We just, we’re lopsided on belief, and people believe and live any way they want, and that’s not good. And so they don’t want Jesus ruling over them, they don’t want them telling them what to do, so Jesus comes back, the nobleman comes back from obtaining the kingdom, and he says, “Bring those enemies of
Scripture in this part
Luke 19:12-14 (NKJV)
Therefore He said: “A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom and to return. So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, ‘Do business till I come.’ But his citizens hated him, and sent a delegation after him, saying, ‘We will not have this man to reign over us.’
— Luke 19:12-14 (NKJV)▶ Hear it at 32:52Romans 2:14-15 (NKJV)
for when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do the things in the law, these, although not having the law, are a law to themselves, who show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and between themselves their thoughts accusing or else excusing them)
— Romans 2:14-15 (NKJV)▶ Hear it at 34:37What does he say it means to be an enemy of God?
Short answer: He says people can be “nice” and give to social programs but “a social program does not make you good,” and that “you can be a believer and an enemy of God because you don’t want God telling you” what to do. He then reads Revelation 6 where the free people hide “from the wrath of the Lamb,” and says Jesus “sits on the throne now.” He names several behaviors including homosexual relationships; these are his views.
▶ 35:40 mine.” You see, they’re not just opposing the church, they’re not just opposing Bible truths, they’re opposing God, they’re God’s enemies. Are you there? They might be nice like Billy Gates, they might have manners, and they might give a lot to social programs, but there is an enemy of God, because a social program does not make you good. Jesus said there is none good but the Father. Ain’t that right? So I need the blood, I need the blood to cleanse me, to cover me. How about you? Yeah. Those enemies who do not want me to reign over them, those are my enemies. And how, you know, you can be a believer and an enemy of God because you don’t want God telling you not to commit adultery, not to have homosexual relationships, not to have incest, and, and steal and so forth. How many know you can believe in God and still be an enemy of God, because the key to being an enemy of God is you don’t want Jesus telling you what to
▶ 36:55 do. Amen. We go on in Revelation 6, these free people say to the mountains and rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of him that sits on the throne.” When does Jesus sit on the throne? He sits on the throne now. He’s been sitting on the throne ever since he ascended, he don’t have to come back to be on the throne, he is on the throne. Can I hear an amen? And they want to hide from him, why do they want to hide from him? From the wrath of the Lamb. Whose wrath? The Lamb. People say, “Well, God loves, you know, he loves,” he’s got a temper, and he’s got an agenda, and he has declared it from the beginning of time that the humanists, the godless people, the heathen, the ones that reject Bible morals and reject Jesus, he will deal
Scripture in this part
Luke 19:27 (NKJV)
But bring here those enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, and slay them before me.’ ”
— Luke 19:27 (NKJV)▶ Hear it at 35:34Revelation 6:15-17 (NKJV)
And the kings of the earth, the great men, the rich men, the commanders, the mighty men, every slave and every free man, hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains, and said to the mountains and rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of Him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb! For the great day of His wrath has come, and who is able to stand?”
— Revelation 6:15-17 (NKJV)▶ Hear it at 37:09What statistics does he give about sexually transmitted disease and the schools?
Short answer: He says the day of wrath is to deal with people “as individuals through the gospel,” and gives figures on sexually transmitted disease, spending on it, and “a moral program.” He says humanists “have won the battle in the public schools.” The figures are his and are not verified by this site.
▶ 38:07 with. Hallelujah. I submit to you this morning that the book of Isaiah is better than any book you can find in the Christian bookstore. Okay, so is the apostle James, Paul, Matthew, Mark, they can’t improve on those books. Amen, they just can’t be improved upon. Wasn’t like these guys were dumb authors. Now, what is the day of wrath to accomplish? What is God wanting to accomplish? You see, he’s not going to wait for a time period to deal with humanists and people ungodly, he’s going to deal with them as individuals through the gospel and through sin correcting them. How many of you know that now 50%, just a few years ago when I did this it was 25%, but 50% of young people have a sexual transmitted
▶ 39:11 disease? 50% of young people, it was just 25% a few years ago. 50% of Americans have or have had a sexually transmitted disease. It sounds like the humanists aren’t doing a good job to me, what do you think? Yeah, these social programs have to be introduced, and they, we spend billions of dollars, like 19 billion a year, on sexually transmitted disease to help people who’s got them, have our tax money instead of going to a moral program, they go to a social program. We need what? A moral program. Hallelujah. And 25% of Americans, total Americans, have an
▶ 40:05 incurable sexually transmitted disease, there’s no cure for it. And I don’t know if you know it or not, in 1960 there was only three major sexually, uh, transmitted diseases: syphilis, gonorrhea, the clap, and so forth, just three, and they were very minor. Now there is over 30 brand new sexually transmitted diseases that were never around before. It sounds like the humanists are killing us, are you there? They mock the Bible, and they want everybody’s, uh, belief to be tolerated, but the tolerance is killing people, destroying people, and hurting people. Amen. They have won the battle in the public schools. They have got most of American Americans think in humanist, communism, you know, communism don’t believe in capitalism also, and socialism doesn’t either, are you
How does he say God will win the Gentiles, and what does he say about the rapture and the tribulation?
Short answer: He says the Gentiles are “his harvest field,” and reads Revelation 7:9, “a great multitude… of all Gentiles, standing before the Lamb.” He says “we don’t have to be snatched away in the rapture,” and reads Matthew 24:29, that the sun darkens “after the tribulation,” and Luke 21 on the distress of the Gentiles. He closes with two true-life family stories about parents risking everything for their children, one from India and one from the Middle East, to say that God wants even the humanist “to live.”
▶ 41:05 there? And all these people have in their manifestos and in their goals is to conquer the world with their philosophy and arms if necessary, and they’re doing a good job in America with just the war of words. Could that be an amen? “Wait for the Son, Jesus, whom he raised from the dead, who delivers us from the wrath to come.” You see, he wants us to preach to them, he wants us to tell them, and he’s going to deal with them because he wants to, what? Deliver these Gentiles. See, not only are they his enemies, they are his harvest field. Are you out there, church? You know, we want to hate our enemies, we going at these people, no, no, God’s going to do things to get their attention so they can be delivered through Christ Jesus. Amen. And if we don’t tell them, how are they going to be
▶ 42:08 delivered? Revelation 7:9, this is the results of Jesus delivering: “I beheld a great multitude in heaven, no man can number, of all Gentiles, standing before the Lamb, worshiping the Lamb.” Is Jesus’s philosophy and plan bigger than the humanist philosophy? Yes, it’s so much bigger that he can win his enemies over to his side, and there’s a season coming on the earth when he’s going to demonstrate his power in the heavens, he’s going to destroy all this false science, knowledge, ideas that people are arguing about back and forth with one move of heaven. I mean, can you imagine the evolutionists trying to explain the Big Bang is
▶ 43:04 now reversing? Can you imagine them trying to explain how a star can decay and fall to the earth? I tell you, he’s a great big wonderful God, folks. He’s already told us the church is going to have a glorious visitation at this time, we don’t have to be snatched away in the rapture, God’s bigger than the rapture. Amen. Jesus makes statements about the sun, moon getting dark and the stars falling and the Gentiles being dealt with. In 1833 we have an [unclear] rendition of a meteorite shower. You see these people praying, they actually thought the end was coming because of these scriptures. You see, they didn’t understand that meteors are rocks, not
▶ 44:05 stars, so they interpreted this, “That’s the fulfillment.” No, that was just a meteor shower. What God’s going to do, he’s going to do, and, and all of America saw this, what God’s going to do the whole world’s going to see it, number one, and what God’s going to do is not just the rocks in the universe, it’s the stars and the planets. Hallelujah. No question about it. Matthew 24:29, “Immediately after the tribulation,” and the other one of the other gospels says “the great tribulation,” after the tribulation. Now, we’re always told that Jesus is going to come before the tribulation, and you really has to twist and rubber band scriptures to get that out of the Bible, you really do, but it’s a very popularized teaching, and, and, and Christians just accept it if it’s on the radio, TV, and they got nice clothes on and they can speak well, it must be
▶ 45:09 true. But Jesus plainly said, after the tribulation of those days, “the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven.” No scroll here, just the stars are falling from heaven. So there’s going to be a demonstration in the heavenlies, and then that’s the stars going dark. How, you know, when the sun goes dark, the moon goes dark, yeah, and the earth goes dark. Yeah. In Luke 21, same account, “signs in the sun, moon, and stars, and on earth.” Okay, on earth, earth, this is the who? There’s going to be distress, suffering, misery of who? The Gentiles. See, the church is going to be protected. Remember, we learned that God will what? Cover us. He will cover us. These death angels, these plagues, these things can’t touch it, he covers us like he did in
▶ 46:19 Egypt, he’ll pass over us. “The distress of the Gentiles, with perplexity,” that means they can’t solve what’s going on, they’re puzzled, they can’t figure this out. You see, he’s going to show mankind that they are just human beings and he’s God. Now, they can’t figure this thing out, and believe me, they got their calculators, and they’re really, they’re really trying to figure this thing out, and they can’t. All right, “the sea and the waves roaring, and men’s hearts failing them for fear, for looking after those things coming on the earth.” God’s going to deal with the human [unclear] mentality before Christ comes. Okay, just continue with me: “for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.” How many know we don’t fight against man, flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers and wickedness in high places? Okay, he’s going to expose
▶ 47:26 the source of their thinking. See, there’s only two kinds of children in the world, the children of God and the children of Satan. Okay, when we follow God and do what’s right and preach his word, we are enemies of those who follow Satan and preach his philosophy, we’re clashing. And remember, Isaiah said there was going to be a time of peace on earth, and the lamb shall lay down with the lion, and so forth, a reverse evolution. Animals are not going to eat meat anymore. I mean, God’s going to do everything he can to get mankind’s attention and expose all their ideas, because he’s God and he can do this stuff. Amen. And does he need to? Yeah, he does need to, because mankind aren’t listening to the gospel being preached. So, “the powers of heaven,” then “they shall see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and glory.” So what happens before he
▶ 48:30 comes? God demonstrating his power in the heavens, God dealing with the Gentiles to bring them to him, to get them out of that false science, in that humanistic religion where they are gone, and to bring them to himself, and we find in Revelation a multitude that cannot be numbered of Gentiles in heaven. Now, that’s power, folks, that’s a God. Can I hear an amen? Amen. Hallelujah. All he can do is snatch me out? Uh-uh. He’s going to do a lot more than snatch me out of this earth, he’s going to demonstrate to the world his power, his truth, for the whole purpose of bringing in a harvest of those that will listen, number one.
▶ 49:26 God has ordained to deal with the Gentiles, and those who won’t repent, he will, they will die, that’s second death, in the lake of fire. But we found that many will when we preach the gospel and they hear and God demonstrates his power in the earth before he comes. And I want, boy, I’d love to be there. Wouldn’t you like to be there at that time where God’s doing his thing, and you’re like, “Moses, get him, God! Allelujah! Joshua, yeah, take that, Pharaoh! Yeah, I told you, [unclear], you should have listened.” See, we act like God never did these things before. He did do them before, in Egypt, and he, you know, he did them before, he rained rocks out of heaven to destroy armies, he demonstrated his power, he’s a supernatural God. About 10 or 15 years ago there was a woman in
▶ 50:24 India. She was pregnant, her and her husband worked in India in the labor fields, they carried heavy loads, and if you didn’t show up for work, someone was there waiting in line to replace you. This woman’s pregnant, she’s working and carrying these heavy loads, building this construction project, she’s in her ninth month, and she’s carrying these heavy loads because she can’t dare, and her and her husband can’t dare quit, because they want this child to be born and they want this child to have the best chance of life they can, and so they know they need money to do that, cuz work is tough, big unemployment rate in India. So one day she’s working and the birth pains
▶ 51:20 come. She works right through them, if she stops she’ll lose the job. Finally her water breaks, and then she knows that baby’s coming out of the canal, she goes off like she’s going to the bathroom, her husband goes with her, and that baby’s born, they cut the umbilical cord, wipe, wrap that baby up, put her around the mother like they do in the back there, you know, and she goes right back to working on that job. Why? Because she wants that baby to live. She puts her comfort, she puts her life on the line, cuz she wants, and her husband both want that baby to live. And I’m going to be emphasizing man and wife today instead of moms, I’m going to be emphasizing moms and dads. Folks, the humanists are winning the battle of the family. 40%, over 40% of kids are born to one-parent homes, 30% of Americans don’t even bother getting
▶ 52:35 married. They’re changing the family structure, the Bible family structure. These two did whatever they could as a team, and, folks, mothers alone are not going to have the impact as a mother and a father will. Amen. Two are better than one, we need each other, and Father’s Day, I’m going to say the same thing, we need the family back to what God says it was, a man and a woman raising kids. Period. Hallelujah. And they did, they raised that baby, they were Christian people, that’s how I know the story, I got it from the missionary over there, couple in the
▶ 53:33 church. Now, let’s go to the Middle East, where it’s a crime to be a Christian. Also a family pulls up, a family of five, they have a teenage daughter 17 years old, they have a 14-year-old boy and a young girl, they pull up to a roadblock trying to get to a refugee camp because they’re being persecuted where they’re at. The soldiers see the young girl, she’s mature, her breasts have grown, and she’s a young lady, and she’s a Christian, an infidel, and they tell that mother and father, “Leave your daughter here.” They plead with these three soldiers at the checkpoint, the mother even offers
▶ 54:24 herself. But there’s a place where they knew if they didn’t stop they would just be shot and they’d have their daughter anyway. Now, they couldn’t do anything, but they could do this: go down the road, pull over to the side, shut the lights off, go back in the darkness around through the terrain to this shack where these soldiers lived, where they took their breaks, and sure enough they go there, they’ve got the daughter stripped naked, they’re molesting her, one of them’s in there molesting her, they go into that shed and they kill that soldier, they took his own gun and shot him cuz he was so involved in what he was doing he didn’t even notice him coming in, and then the two soldiers heard the shot and they come running in and they killed them too. Mom just laid them out. Why?
▶ 55:26 Cuz she wanted her daughter to live. They put their life on the line so that their children could live, and specifically this young teenage girl went back to the car and drove away, got to the refugee camp, and, folks, that’s what God wants. The humanist, he wants them to live, and he’ll do anything, and he’s trying to move you to speak to them, to share the gospel with them, share truth with them. He wants them to live, he wants them to have eternal life, he wants them to know him.

About this transcript
This transcript comes from YouTube’s automatic English captions, which supply the timing and the words. Punctuation, capitalization and paragraphing were added by hand, and obvious caption errors were corrected; his wording was not rewritten. “[unclear]” marks a word or name that was not clear. Editor notes: he refers by name to several real, living public figures (a technology billionaire, an investor, and a television host) and to the Secular Student Alliance and the American Humanist Association; the names stay in the transcript only. The captions give “Billy Gates” and render one television host’s name inconsistently, so the first mention is marked “[unclear]”. He gives “Hebrews 12:6” for the Esau passage (Hebrews 12:16), and “Revelation 6:2” for the sixth seal (Revelation 6:12); the numbers are kept as captioned. He says Jacob when he means Isaac in the birthright story, and corrects himself. He says a solar eclipse lasts “7.4 seconds,” as captioned; total eclipses last up to about seven and a half minutes. He makes claims about science, history, health statistics, politics, other groups and moral behavior; these are his words and are not verified by this site. The transcript includes a description of sexual violence in a Middle East story (from about 54:00). “[Unclear]” marks six spots: about 5:30, 11:25, 12:00, 44:10, 46:40 and 50:00.
