What the Last Days is All About Part 1: full transcript and answers

▶ 0:00 We found in Daniel 10 that the messenger came to Daniel and said,”I am come to make you to understand what shall befall you in the latter days or last days.” Okay. So the messenger is going to show Daniel what’s going to happen where. In the last days. I will show you that which is noted inscribed in the scriptures. What the messengers is saying I’m not going to give you anything new. I’m going to give you what the prophets before have already said. Wouldn’t that be nice if we did that in our generation. Instead of adding to the word? And so we can go back to the prophets and find out what God said through the prophets about the last days.

▶ 0:58 And then we can measure it up with what he’s saying to Daniel and know that he’s speaking of what? The last days. Now, when we do this, I’m going to give you a preview of coming attraction. All right. When we do this, you’re going to find the last days is about Jesus. All right? Him coming to abolish shadow laws. Him coming to be the lamb that was slain for the sins of the world. Him is what the last days is all about. It’s what you’re going to see when I bring these scriptures up. Number two, you’re going to find he’s talking about the Jews and he’s talking about a powerful people that follow him. And this is what you Christians need to get in your cranial vacuum. These guys on radio and TV are lying to you. The church is and God’s people are to be victorious conquerors in our lifetime.

▶ 1:55 And he’s going to plainly say this stuff. We’re not waiting for no rapture. We are possessing. You’re going to see this in the prophets. And then you’re going to see the wicked. Number three, the wicked opposing Christ, opposing Bible morality and their judgment for opposing it. That’s the three things the last days are all about. Right? Back in Genesis 49:1, Jacob said to his sons, “Come, I’m going to tell you what shall befall you in what? The last days.” And then he goes through Reuben and so forth. Then he comes to Judah and he says, “The scepter, that’s a king’s scepter, that’s his authority. That’s his staff that he has in his hands. When he reaches it out to you, you can come into his presence. If he doesn’t, you’re a dead man.” The scepter, the king, shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver.

▶ 2:52 A lawgiver is the king again between his feet until Shiloh, the Messiah, comes. You see, and unto him shall the gathering of the people be. Not to the pope, not to the Catholic Church, not to the Baptist church, not to the Pentecostals. They are going to be gathering together unto Jesus Christ in the last days. Now, folks, that’s powerful right there. You want to you’re really going to learn something about the last days if you discipline your mind to hear this. All right. He goes on to say Joseph is a fruitful branch by a well. So we find Joseph of a fruitful b branch. Jesus name is the branch. You never hear people in Zechariah 6:12 the man whose name is the branch.

▶ 3:43 He shall build the temple of the Lord. He will bear the glory and shall sit and rule upon his throne and he shall be the priest. He’s a king. He’s a priest and he’s Jesus. Now very few people of you know that Jesus’s name is the branch because no one ever talks about it but it’s very important in the last day movement because every branch has branches. Okay. Now he’s by a well whose branches run over the wall. That’s essence the people that follow them. Fruitful people. All right. So, here we have Jesus being talked about. We have strong Christians. And then you have the archers have sorely grieved him, shot at him, and hated him.

▶ 4:37 But his bow abode in strength, his hands made strong by God. And so we have the opposers. Now, there’s always been people that they may believe in Jesus, but they oppose his moral principles. The Jews were like that. They believed in God. They believed the Messiah was coming, but they did not live for God. They rejected his moral principles. All right? And so, the archers are shooting at him. They hate him. And Jesus said, “They’re going to hate you because they hate me.” So the hymn there is both Jesus and his followers. His hands were made strong by God. From where is the shepherd? See, he is the shepherd. Who’s the shepherd? Jesus. The Lord is my shepherd. See?

▶ 5:29 And the stone of Israel by God who shall help you and shall bless you. God’s people are going to be aided by God and blessed by God in the last days. Are you there church? Now let’s go again. Numbers chapter 244:14. Balam said Balam was a false prophet. He was an enchanter. He he uh prophesied by demonic spirits, but God used him to speak truth. So just because God uses wicked people doesn’t mean he’s approven of them. You got that? Yeah. Balam died for his disobedience to God. But anyway, he said, “I’m going to show you what these people are going to do you people in the last days. There shall come a star out of Jacob.” Who’s the star?

▶ 6:23 Jesus. The bright and morning star. And the scepter shall rise out of Israel. Now, what’s the scepter? The staff of a king. A king is coming out of Israel, out of Judah. You see, it’s the same stuff. The last days, there’s a Messiah coming, a king, a prophet, and a priest, and his name is Jesus Christ. And that’s what the last days is all about. Are you with me so far? And this is what the messenger is going to show Daniel in the book of Daniel, chapter 11. Again, verse 18 of Numbers 24. Israel shall do violently, victoriously, courageously. Now, he’s not talking about natural Israel there. He’s talking about natural Israel where the king will come out of the tribe of Judah. But now he’s talking about the spiritual Israel, the followers of Christ who are a valent, courageous, victorious people.

▶ 7:21 And out of Jacob shall come he that shall have dominion. Who is the one that was promised to have dominion? Jesus. You see, he talks about Jesus in the last days. He talks about his powerful people and he talks about the wicked. That’s what the last days is all about. You got it. Deuteronomy 4:30. When you are in tribulation and all these things are come upon you even in the latter days, the use in blue because the tribulation came because they disobeyed God. All right? And God told him that wars would come, plagues would come, and economic catastrophes would come, and acts of God would come if they didn’t obey him. And he says they came upon them. But he says in the last days, in the last days, if you’re in that situation where you disobeyed God and you’re in trouble, you’re having problems, if you turn to the Lord, now who’s the Lord?

▶ 8:22 You are you’re an intelligent congregation, I tell you. Yeah. You turn to Jesus. Turn means to repent. Repentance wasn’t a new message in the New Testament. Repentance was in the Old Testament, which John the Baptist made fresh and new in the New. Hallelujah. Repentance was always what God asked his people to do. Turn from your sin and do right. If you turn and obey his voice, he will not forsake you. He will not destroy you and he won’t forget his covenant. He will bless you like he said he would do in the last days. He will make you valent. He will make you courageous. He will make you victorious because that’s his destiny for you. But you got to what? Turn. Amen. Now, Deuteronomy 8:16 tells us that he might humble you to prove you or test you to do you good at your latter end or latter days or last days.

▶ 9:28 See what’s out what’s God out to do in your life? To improve your life. And he has to come and correct you. Amen. Amen. Now, Deuteronomy 31:29 tells us why Deuteronomy 4 happened. After my death, you will utterly corrupt yourselves and turn aside from my way, and evil will befall you in the last days. And that’s what we’re finding in the last days. Israel was punished. Israel was corrected. Israel was brought into desolation. Why? Because they did exactly what God said they would do. They turned away. They went their own ways. They went into sexual immorality, idolatry, and all these sins while they still said they believed in God. Right?

▶ 10:26 Because you will do evil in the sight of the Lord to provoke him to anger through the work of your hands. You see, when we violate Bible morality and we say we’re Christians, we’re inviting the wrath of God on our life. We have the opposers of Jesus and Bible or Bible morality. The re reason it’s and or you may be an atheist and you oppose Bible morality, you’re still going to get punished for it. It still is opposing God. If you’re a believer and you oppose Bible morality, you’re still wrong. Being a believer doesn’t make it right. So we see also Jesus when we turn to the Lord he will his voice and we see a powerful group of followers of Christ in the last days.

▶ 11:18 All right. Psalms 37 mark the perfect man. Behold the upright man for the end of that man is peace. The n word is there. It means last days. The last days when you stand before God, peace is going to be to you. But transgressors shall be destroyed together. You see why? Because it’s at the last days. God’s dealing with the group. And the end of the wicked, the last days of the wicked shall be cut off. You see? So Psalm 73:17, the psalmist Asf said, “You know, I didn’t understand the wicked. You know, they’re rich. Nothing ever seems to go wrong with their children. You know, the children live and they die and and and they’re rich.

▶ 12:13 Nothing seems to happen to their herds and they seem to be healthy.” He said, “I don’t get this until I went into the sanctuary.” And this should be your understanding. We come to the house of God not for social involvement. We come to do warfare as you learned last week and we come to understand. And when he went into the house of God wasn’t in his prayer closet at home. He went in the assembly the house of God. And then God opened his understanding and showed him they’re in their last days. You set them in slippery places. You cast them down to destruction. How are they brought into desolation? That word how means how they’re brought into desolation. Eternal.

▶ 13:10 It’s an exclamation. Oh my oh my so, we see strong Christians, don’t we? Victorious conquerors. We see people that oppose Jesus Christ and or Bible morality. And we see the Lord Jesus in these last day scriptures. Not the Antichrist, not the beast, not the 666. You got to look for the right thing. Can I hear an amen? We’ve been brainwashed with this nonsense till we don’t know who we are and how to behave in our generation. Bible morality is peace for the upright and destruction for the transgressor. You’re not going to be judged by your faith when you stand before God.

▶ 14:05 You know, you’re going to be judged by your standard of morality. Now, Acts 21:17 quotes from Joel 2:28. Okay? So, we’re going to have a transition now between the Old Testament and the New to show you that the New Testament verifies the Old Testament. Okay? And we’re going to use this transitional scripture out of Joel chapter 2 where it says, “In the last days, it shall come to pass that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh, your sons and your daughters, my servants and my handmaidadens shall prophesy. Speak by the inspiration of God.” Speak by the inspiration of the spirit of God.

▶ 14:59 So there’s something powerful going on in the last days, isn’t there? There is a people that God has blessed with his Holy Spirit and they can speak by divine inspiration. They can prophesy. Now Hebrews 1 verse two says God in these last days speaks to us by who? Who? Not the latest author coming out with the book. Not the head of your denomination. Not the pope over in Rome. He speaks to us through who? Jesus Christ. So, we go to the parables and the teachings of Jesus Christ to learn what he’s saying to us in these last days. Can I hear an amen? I don’t care what your articles of faith are in your church. If they’re wrong, they’re wrong.

▶ 15:51 You need to be listening to Jesus Christ. We have strong Christians prophesying in the midst of tribulation and troubles and all the mess. We have Christians that are standing up for truth and speaking truth by the inspiration of the Holy Ghost. Hallelujah. We have Jesus Christ who came born of a virgin, preached for three and a half years, died on the cross, gave his life up. No one could take it. Picked his life back up again, rose from that grave, ascended under heaven, and poured out his spirit upon the church. We are living in the last days. Do you understand that? The last days started when Christ came and they’re still with us.

▶ 16:46 Are you with me, church? Second Peter 3:3, “There shall come in the last days scoffers.” Mockers. And how do you know they’re mockers? Because they walk after their own lust. They do what they want and see nothing wrong with it. They can be religious. They can be believers that mock God because they commit adultery, homosexuality. They steal that. You know, they mock God. And where’s this coming? Everything continues as they are. They have no fear of God because Peter said here because these things are true. What kind of behavior should we all be in holiness and godliness? See, his point was we should be living Bible morality because God is going to judge the world.

▶ 17:45 Hallelujah. So we have these opposers of Christ even in the Christian circles. They believe in Christ but they oppose Bible morality. Men shall be lovers of their own self than lovers of God. It is that happening in our generation? Oh yeah. If we don’t want to go to church on Sunday morning, we just don’t go. Why? Because we love oursel. We don’t want to read our Bible through the week. We just don’t read it. Why? Because we love oursel. We don’t study the Bible and get with someone that can teach it. Why? Because we love oursel. We want to do what we want to do. Golf, surfing, whatever. We love oursel. And he says they love pleasures more than lovers of God.

▶ 18:37 Monday night football is more important than anything. It’ll even break up the home. Got watch Monday night football woman. And he goes on to explain that they’re truth breakers and adulterers and all these things. They have a form of godliness. You see, now atheists don’t have a form of godliness. They just don’t believe in God. So who does it have to be? Believers who don’t embrace Bible morality. Let’s take a look at Daniel 11:1. Now we’ve got the introduction. There shall stand up three kings in Persia. The fourth by his strength through his riches shall stir up against the rim of Greece.

▶ 19:32 Okay? A mighty king shall stand up that shall rule with great dominion. That’s talking about Alex Alexander the Great. Alexander the Great became king of Greece. Greece conquered Persia. You see, God is showing them exactly the timeline now of the nations that this is going to transpire in. Only God can do that. Only God, he challenges every God in the Old Testament. Show me one God who can show you things that are going to happen before they happen. Only I, the Lord God, can do that. And that is proof that our God is the only God. All other gods are fabricated by man. There’s only one God and he foretells the future before it happens. Hallelujah.

▶ 20:25 And it happens. Now his kingdom shall be broken and divided into four winds of the heaven. This Greek kingdom and not to his offspring, not to his sons. For his kingdom shall be plucked up even for others besides his offspring. This is what the messenger is telling Daniel. So what happens? We go to history. You can read it. Any idiot can read this in history. Okay. Cambius, Cambes was the next king. Gamada was the third king or the uh second king and Das was the third one. And then Xerxes was the fourth king. And sure enough, Xerxes stirred up against Greek and attacked Greek and defeated Greek just like the messenger said.

▶ 21:19 Wow. Now we know that takes God. Now after Alexander there was eight kings after Xerxes to Alex Alexander the great and after Alexander his empire was divided into four kingdoms just like the messenger said. You can read it. The historians have it all recorded. It was divided into four kingdoms just like the messenger said it would happen and none of them was to his children. Now in 2281 BC the solicit kingdom the kingdom over here orange conquered the list amicus kingdom and they united into one kingdom.

▶ 22:24 So now there’s only what three and 281 BC Rome conquered the cellucid kingdom in 189 BC. Now Rome is in control of the other two kingdoms. So now we only got two Greek kingdoms left and we got Rome who we know is the beast that is coming that was different from all the rest. Rome was the next kingdom. All right. Then Israel was made a province of Rome. The Cellucid Kingdom took over Palestine earlier and when Rome conquered it, they didn’t make it a province right off the bat, but they did later at uh 63 BC. And then Rome conquered Egypt in 48 BC.

▶ 23:16 Now all the Greek kingdoms are under Rome just like the other visions that Daniel had said. Now is this a God or what? And you can read this. This is this is the easy part. The difficult part’s coming up. You go read your history. You’re going to find out this is true. All right. Remember in Daniel 7:1 we have four beasts rising out of the sea. Remember that the first one was a lion which was Babylon. The second one was a bear which was Persia. The third one was Greece. The leopard with four heads. Four kingdoms. And then that fourth one, that terrible beast that trampled all the rest of these kingdoms. The one that had the little horn that speaks against God that prevails in wars with the saints. The Roman Empire.

▶ 24:08 Do you remember that? That kingdom is going to be destroyed and given to a burning flame for the words the little horn spoke. You see, it’s the words. And this is what’s happening in America. These little horns all over America are speaking up and defiling the scriptures and Jesus Christ, undermining him, challenging Jesus, challenging the scriptures, and the Christians are silent and saying nothing. And we’ve got to lift up our voice. And because of the words that were said, this kingdom is destroyed, attacking the prince of princes in the Bible. Daniel 7:31, the son of man came with the clouds of heaven. I love today’s worship. Went right along with my message. Came to the ancient of days. The son of man came.

▶ 24:59 Who’s the son of man? Jesus. See, there it is again. He was given an eternal kingdom, an eternal dominion, rulership, and all people serve him. The horn wars and prevails against the saints until the ancient of days came and judgment was given to who? The saints. And the time came that the saints what? Take and possess the kingdom forever. Are you there? We are to be conquerors. We’re not a bunch of wimps. And the saints are given to his hand till times, time, and a half time. If you can figure that out, you’re smarter than I am. I have no idea why the saints are given time.

▶ 25:54 All I know it is a limited time. We shouldn’t expect to be under sinner’s rulership for a long season is how I read it. We should know we buck up, we preach up, we live up, and God will change things. Because when the righteous are in authority, the people what? Rejoice. And when the wicked rule, the people what? Mourn. And boy, are we mourning in America right now. So we have Jesus, the son of man. We have the opposers of Jesus and Bible morality and we have strong Christians. See, he’s talking about what? The end days, the last days. And then this is what he says in verse 26. But the judgment shall sit and they the saints shall take away his who’s he is?

▶ 26:46 The little horn. Take away his the little horn’s dominion. What dominion? It says over them and the whole earth. He got dominion over the saints and the whole earth. And the saints take away his dominion. Are you out there saints? We got to quit hiding our head in the sand like the ostrich and get our head out and see things as they are and start talking. The saints take away the dominion to consume and destroy it. The little horn’s dominion. Have you destroyed the little horn’s dominion over your own life, let alone others? Or is he still ruling your life? And how what’s it going to do?

▶ 27:40 Unto the end or the conclusion, the last day. Are you with me now? Daniel 8:21, “The rough goat is the kingdom of Greece. The great horn is the first king of four kingdoms from that nation. Just like the messenger said and all the other visions said, out of one of them came forth a little horn.” Here it is again, a little horn. In chapter 7, a little horn in chapter 8, this little horn that’s got a big mouth opposing Bible morality, opposing Jesus Christ. In the latter time of their kingdom, when transgressors are come to a full, a little horn, a king of fierce countenance shall arise and destroy the hol the holy people. Now, why hasn’t Jesus come yet?

▶ 28:35 Most of you don’t know because they teach you on radio and TV that everything’s been done. But I submit to you, the transgressors hasn’t come to a full yet. That’s why he hasn’t come. And God’s people aren’t strong yet. Look at us. We’re a bunch of wimps. Anyway, the transgressors hasn’t come to a fool, folks. That’s why he hasn’t come yet. And that’s why he won’t come in 2012. It’s got nothing to do with the Mayan calendar. It’s got to do with his calendar. And he’s coming back for a victorious church. Read your Bible. He’s not coming back for a church that’s hanging on for the rapture.

▶ 29:26 He’s coming up for a victorious church. A strong church. A church that’s like Daniel. So we have the people that oppose Jesus and Bible morality. We have strong Christians. And we have them standing up against the prince of princes which is Jesus. And by him the daily sacrifice was taken away. The horns host the army, the people that follow him cast truth to the ground. And that’s what Obama did when he said that same-sex marriage is okay. He cast truth to the ground. When the Democratic Party said it’s okay, they cast truth to the ground. They’re the little horns that we need to stand up against. Can I hear an amen? Now, and I put in this 2,300 days. He says, “How long before this daily sacrifice, truth to the ground, you know, prince of princes and all that.

▶ 30:22 How long is that going to be?” And he says, “2,300 days.” Now, put this in because it is 6.3 years, not seven years. I just threw that out. Daniel 2:44. This is the statue he saw. In the days of these kings, the Roman Empire, shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed.
