Get a job, get a life and get over, get over, get over. Okay, Revelations after 19. And that's BS. In 19, verses 1 through 6, we have what we call a parenthesis, a picture in heaven. And the reason this is probably important is because of Babylon, the destruction of Babylon has just taken place And look in verse 2, if you will, Revelation 19 and verse 1, we have all these people in heaven saying, Hallelujah, salvation, glory, honor, so for, for true and righteous are His judgment, God, who has judged the great horror, who did corrupt the earth with her formication, and had the midst of blood of His servant, set her hand. And so everyone in heaven is saying, Hallelujah, the horror, false religion has been judged, the harlot, the horror. And the four and twenty elders, who are they, well, they just plain represent the Church. The four and twenty elders and the four beasts fell down and worshiped God, the sound from saying, Amen and hallelujah. And the voice came out of the throne of God saying praise our God, all His servants and you that fear Him, those small and great, and I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude and like the voice of many waters and like the voice of many of thunder saying, how will you for the Lord God omnipotent kingdom? So there's rejoicing in heaven because the hor, the harlot, Babylon, false religion, has only been destroyed. And I think at this point it is eternal, eternally destroyed. And I can't wait for that event myself. By the way, I hope you didn't notice that you noticed this guy for President Barack Obama. Everybody is just swimming over this guy. You know what it reminds me of? I think it's a picture of the anti-Christ. When he comes along, the world is going to swim. Remember they're going to faint over him. Probably men too. Probably the homosexuals. I know they will. They're going to just faint over him. And when I see this on TV and his charisma, I'm thinking, boy, the anti-Christ is going to be, he's going to He's just like that. It's amazing. Yeah, he tried to show that he's not smart because he came out at heart, but he's smart, but he never said anything. Yeah, he never says the thing. You know, all he says, let's hope. We need a change. Look, all he says. That doesn't mean a darn thing. That means absolutely nothing. He knows he's smart. He knows exactly what he's doing. And anyway, Verse 7. Now we have something that is going to take place yet future. And once you and I are in heaven, we're going to stand at the judgment seat of Christ. Every one of us and the church will go through the judgment seat. We will all receive our rewards. We'll all receive everything that's coming to us. And in verse 7, let us be glad and rejoice and give honor to him for the marriage of the Lamb has come. and his wife have made her soporate. That's the church, you not. And to her was granted that she should be read in fine lemon, clean and white. For the fine lemon is the righteousness of saints. Your Bible may say, some Bibles say the righteous acts of saints. And it's under me right blessed are they who are called let's let's go there very first of all fine linen clean and white well the fine linen is the righteousness of saints when you get into heaven you're gonna have two garments they're going to be an inner garment and an outer garment the outer garment is the righteous acts of the saints when you get to heaven you're going to get the first that's the inner garment, that's salvation. And let's see here, we could go to second range of 5.21, but I don't think we'll bother. Let's go to Matthew chapter 5. I think that's where I want to go. And then we'll come right back here. Matthew chapter 5. I think that's where I want to go. I don't know yet. We'll know when I get there. There's one verse here that we need. For I say unto you that except your righteousness, shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and curses, you shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven." Well, if you talk about it, that means that I have to be righteous, to be saved. Well, no, you have to be saved, to be righteous, absolutely. But I also need righteous acts, if I'm going to serve the Lord, do I not? That is my service, very simple, my simple, simple service. But that is my righteousness and when I do that, I enter into the kingdom of heaven. And I have the keys to heaven, the keys to heaven. Now then, you know, concerning the subject of the kingdom of heaven, turn over to John chapter 3 and we'll come back here. We'll come right back here to Revelation, if you will. There are a couple other things I need to find out in Revelation here. But in John chapter 3, I don't know how many of you are here when I pointed this out once before. But in John chapter 3 verse 3, talking about being born again, the Lord said to Nicodemus, Jesus answered and said unto him, very, very, I say unto thee, except they man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of heaven. The word see means to know, be aware of, be hold. If you're not saved, if you're not born again, you cannot see the kingdom of heaven. You know You know which is kind of funny, we talk about all these people that have the kingdom of heaven, and if you do this, you cannot inherit the kingdom of heaven. It's amazing to me that once they're saved, they can't see it. Because it says right here, if you're not born again, you can't see the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, if you are born again, you shouldn't be able to see it, right? Be aware of it. Behold it. And all you have to do is look at nature. Look at everything God provides for you. Look at the man who is a little baby there in a hospital taking very good care of. I think the doctors will save a little baby. I think that little baby will come home and be good. They'll be fine. You know what I come from? The Kingdom of God. Everything you have comes from the Kingdom of God. Anybody here starving to death? I don't know. Don't look like it. If you had a meal the day it came from the Kingdom of God. most people just don't realize it. But you got to be born again to see, be aware of and behold, the Kingdom of God. And then look in verse 5, if you will. Jesus answered, barely, barely, I say unto thee, except amen be born of water and spirit, he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God. Different word altogether. The first word is I do. I do. The other word is ICE, EIS, and it means to enter into, actually come into, come into. So if you're born again, you can see it, and if you're born again, you can enter into it, but it doesn't mean you probably will, not everybody does. We all get to heaven, but I might not enter into the kingdom of God while I'm alive on this earth. He said, Marvel not that I said unto you, You must be born again in order to see the Kingdom of God and in order to enter the Kingdom of God. Okay, back in Revelation, if you will. I could quote Second Corinthians, chapter 5, verse 21, but I don't think I will. We'll just go back to Revelation. So anyhow, you're going to get two garments when you get there. Verse 9, if you will, 19 verse 9, yes. So we have the inner and outer garment. There's one other place I want to go. Hold your place in 19. Let me take a look at something here for just a minute. Go over there, but I didn't touch on it. Let me take a look here. You might want to make a note somewhere in Matthew chapter 5, verse 40. The Lord is talking and He's talking about the coat and the cloak, the inner and outer garment. I just thought I'd give you that as a reference. Matthew chapter 5, verse 40. The Romans had their own, they had the Tunic and the Toga. I don't know about you, but I have my inner and outer garments on right now. I got my longjones on because I was cold. I got a tooth check. Do you? I don't blame you. So I got my inner and outer garment in the summer. I'm going to take the longjones off, but I'm still going to have my inner garments. So we always, we have the same thing, but the righteous acts of the saints is your outer garment that you earned while you're alive on this earth. Verse 9, and he said unto me, right, blessed are they who are called, who are called, unto the marriage supper of the Lamb, and he said unto me, these are the true saints, who are the called in heaven? Is it the church? Don't answer. Who are the called? I'm going to tell you who they are. They're all the saved in heaven, but not the church. Who are the guests at a wedding? And when you go to the wedding, you've got the bride in the groom, right? Well, if the married supper of the Lamb in heaven is going to be the bride and the groom, the bride is the church, the groom is Christ, and those who are called to the wedding are the guests. So a guest who's going to be there at the wedding knows this. Not going to be part of the bride, not part of the church. Who's going to be a guest? Abraham will be a guest. Everyone that was saved before the cross, or actually before Pentecost, and after the rapture, will be guessed at the marriage supper of the land. You and I will be the main people, the church. I think that's pretty awesome myself. I think it is. What's that? I've never been in a way. Oh no? Try the priesthood. Will you be at that one? Yeah. Actually, you'll be there with what you want to or not. Yeah, you won't have a choice. And then in verse 10, I want you to get this verse here, if you will, be careful of who you worship. John saw all these things, and he was so taken back by all the things that he saw by the angel that showed him all these things. He saw the marriage supper of the Lamb. He saw the garments. He saw the righteousness of the saints. He saw the destruction of Babylon, and he saw all the scene in heaven, all the people rejoicing out of the way to the Lamb and so forth, and when he saw all these things, he was so taken back by the Word that the angel gave him that he said in verse 10. I fell at his feet to worship him, and he said unto me, see, thou do it not. I am thy fellow servant, and of thy brethren, that have the testimony of Jesus, worship God for the testimony of Jesus to the Spirit of the Prophecy. Guess what? There goes worshipping Mary, doesn't it? There goes falling down and worshipping some priests or praying to some priest that was right out the window. There goes worshipping Saint Jude and all these other stupid things. Worship God only. Never kneel down at any man, any statue, anything miles of Catholic, we used to have to appreciate and say, well I go to Confession, you know, I've never even done that did it, because we're close to. And I'd say, forget my father for our sin, then I'd make up something, because I didn't know what I did. It was really wrong. So I'd make up something super clean. He'd say, you know, my son, I love it. Go say, ten of our fathers and five Elmerids, so you'd have to go somewhere in the church and kneel down and say, ten our fathers, ten homeowners, and all this garbage. So what does repetition do I mean? Nothing. But when you're a Catholic, you don't know any better. Yeah. When you're an unsaved idiot, you don't know any better. And you just do what you told because you think, well, this is the church after all, and he's the priest. He's the priest. And who am I? You know, I always thought it was stupid, but I did it. Well, it was stupid, but it was just a stupid doing it. But anyhow, and so we kneeled down and prayed to Mary, isn't that something? Mary likes if she's going to do anything. And then in verse 11, I got to remember that chapter 19, 1 through 6, is a parenthesis. And then in verse 7, through the rest of 19 is yet future, part of the tribulation, things that will take pass, take place. And then immediately following the marriage supper of the lamb, the marriage supper of the marriage feast, you got the bride and the groom, Jesus Christ and the church. And then we go on our honeymoon. I love this. We go on our honeymoon. Let's see, how many of you guys need to get married yet? One couple of years. You're going to go on a honeymoon when you get married. Anyhow, so we get married. We're up in heaven. We have the marriage supper of the land, the big feast. Everybody's called Moses going to be there. Everybody's going to be there. And then here we're going, verse 11 on our honeymoon. And I saw heaven opened. And behold the white horse, then it'll get me wrong. I'm not, I'm just being a little cute, I guess, but But when people talk about the married separate land, they get the wrong impression. It's just a union. And then I saw heaven open, behold a white horse, and he that sat upon him was called faithful and true, and in righteousness he took judge and make war, that's Christ, of course. His eyes were like a flame of fire on his head where many crowns, and he had a name written that no man knew, but he himself. And he was clothed with a vest your dipped in blood and his name is called the Word of God. And the armies that were in heaven followed him up on white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. Remember the two garments. Now think about this. You're going to be riding on a horse following the Lord Jesus Christ. He's going to be clothed in blood, investors dipped in blood. So when the world sees him coming, they'll see the Lord Jesus Christ, the one they slew, the one they crucified, they will see him coming, and they'll see the bloody clothes. And the armies they'll see you and I, I'm going to be there, and they will follow him up heaven upon white horses. I know one thing I'm going to get when I get in heaven, a white horse. First of all, I'm going to get two sets of garments, the inner and the outer, and then I'm going to get a white horse. I had never had a white horse. Have you? Never had a horse. I had a pony once. He really wasn't mine. It was a pain in the butt that pony. That thing had to get out and out of the chasing. They'd get out of anything. But anyway, I'm going to get a white horse. Isn't that something? We're all going to get a white horse, and we're going to be closing fine women, white and green. That's our honeymoon. It's going to be fun. It's going to be a battle. Well, I think I went on a honeymoon, but no battle. And that white horse had to borrow a car. But anyhow, we went on honeymoon. But this honeymoon is going to be great. It's going to be fun. It'll be just going to be great. We're going to judge the world. If the battle of Armageddon, we're going to be there. And verse 15 out of his mouth, go to the sharp sword. At that with it, he should smite the nations and he shall rule them with a rattle of iron. Just his word. You know, they talked about the Battle of Armageddon, but the secular world does. They have no idea what it's like. Not even going to be a battle. Not even going to be a battle. Yeah, he's just going to come down. We're going to be there. He's going to smite him with his word, and that's it. Not even going to be a battle. There's nothing like people picture whatsoever. All the world's going to be there, and you know who's going to be there. All the armies of the East are going to be there. That's why you need to keep your eye on China today. They're preparing for to take over the world. They're working on it. Believe me, they're getting close. They're at the point now where they can cross the Euphrates River. They're looking forward to that. And China is one of the biggest threats in the world today. I know the Muslims are a pain in the hiding, but look out for the Chinese. It's they're sneaking up pretty fast. And the Athanas Vesher and Oneslai and Amritin came with kings and Lord of the Lords. yet future. In verse 17, I saw an angel standing in the sun, and they cried with a loud voice. You have a look at chapter 9 verse 13-21. We don't do there, but you see where the world is preparing for this great battle. Not going to be a battle. The Lord will just speak His word, and it will be over. Then he says, in saying, all the files that blind myths have happened, come and gather yourself together into the supper of the great God. You may eat the flesh of kings and the flesh of captains and the flesh of mighty men, the flesh of horses and so forth, and of them that sat on them and the flesh of all men, those free and slave, and I saw the beast and let's stop there. Remember when David slew Goliath, remember that? And Goliath said to him, I'm going to feed you to the fows of the air. Remember that? Well, this is the type of going back to Old Goliath, the world is Goliath, and you and I are going to be like David. Now, I got a question for you, kind of think of it. Remember when David picked up, I'd probably point it this out before. Remember when David picked up five stones when he went to meet Goliath? Well, I heard a preacher bring a rousing message on that one time. Huh? The Goliath had brothers? Yeah, that wasn't what he said though. He said always, he said, when you go to meet the enemy, you always have plenty of ammunition. And the message was rousing and wonderful and when I did a study on it, I thought, that's not the reason you picked up five stones. He knew he was going to slay Goliath with one stone, but Goliath had four brothers. So he had one stone for each brother. He didn't need ammunition. He knew that God would take what he had and destroy the enemy with it. But the message was good, it sounded good, but I had to do a study on myself to come with that conclusion. And then he said, in 19, we're going to point a couple things out here if I may. And I saw the beast, and the comes of the earth, and their armies gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse and against his army. Some war. That's the beast who is the anti-Christ and the false prophet. And at verse 20, the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that robbed miracles before him, with which he deceived them, that had received the mark of the beast, and then that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. And the remnant, this is what we read about in Matthew chapter 25, and the remnant were slain with the sword of him, also Joel chapter 2 and 3, and various other places. That sat upon the horse which sword was seated out of his mouth and all the fouls were filled with their flesh He just speaks his word But I want you to notice you know for those who say that there is no heaven and no hell and See I was watching the other day me and Bill O'Reilly a preacher on a show and he's gonna tell us all about heaven and hell He didn't know anything about it. He said I believe there is and I believe there is both and but he couldn't prove anything But many people say God won't send you the hell, and dying is annihilation. You just don't exist anymore, and all these sins. But notice if you will, the Red Note or Shrine, or where was it? First thing, the false prophet and the beast and all the rest of the world that were there at the battle, that were rejected Christ, they were all, if you read Matthew 25, they were all cast alive into the lake of fire. Now, they go over, if you will, to chapter 20, go to verse 7, if you will. We're going to have a thousand years. Christ is going to rain on the earth a thousand years. You and I will be there. We will rain within a thousand years. And verse 7, when a thousand years are ended, let off. Satan shall be loosed out of his prison. And remember, Satan is going to be chained somewhere for a thousand years. And so go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, gog and may gog to get it together to battle, the number of whom is as the sand of the sea. And then in verse 10, the devil deceived them. And they deceived the world. This is amazing to me. Zachariah chapter 14, verse 12 is probably a good reference for that. In verse 9, they went up on the breadth of the earth, gog and may gog after the end of the thousand years, after 1,000 years of a perfect, peaceful world of multitude are going to follow Satan one last time. Isn't it amazing? It's hard to believe. Wouldn't you think that they would look back in their history books and say, man, I remember Bill Clinton. Jesus Christ is perfect compared to what we had done. But anyway, in Burst and the Devil that deceived him was cast into the Lake of Fire and Brimstone where the beast and false prophet are. And they've been there for a thousand years. No, you do not cease to exist. When this life is over, you do not cease to exist. They have been there for a thousand years. If they cease to exist, they wouldn't be there. They are not in heaven. They are in the lake of fire. They have been there for a thousand years. And so has everyone who has rejected Christ at the Battle of Armageddon. And let's go over here if you will, the message, chapter 25. take a quick look at that if you will. There's something else down here you said that I was thinking about us. I'm going to bring out this evening but I did not agree with at all. Oh, I know what it is. We might take a quick look at that. I don't know. Well, no, something else he said when he gave the gospel message in his book, I'm going to point that out Sunday. But he said that if you confess your sins and ask and your heart and also the stuff, that the angels will be writing your name in the book of life and have them. Is that true? Very good. Very good. Where in the heck did you learn that stuff that? Yeah, your name's already in there. And if you put your faith in Christ and Christ, what happens? It will not be erased, right? It's pretty dumb. Yeah, in my opinion, and I talked about this before. The Jews back there is real soul. Yeah, yeah. Health brings Jews back into Israel. He's not the only one. Yeah. Yeah, money. But also, he gets a lot of notoriety out of it. Because he, in doing this, he gets to hop down with a lot of preachers. One of them was Jerry Falwell. He's not alive anymore. Jack Van Empey. And by the half of those, another problem of preachers are in the process of bringing the Jews back to Israel. But I'm against that. Because God specifically says in the Old Testament, he will bring Israel back into the land. I can give all the money I want to, the Jack Banny of the Year, or John Hagen, and they have nothing to do with it. You're right. I think that's an abomination. But on Sunday, next Sunday, when we have our service, I'm going to point all this out. I'm still going to hand out the book because I think there are a lot of good things in it. But I do, on the same token, I do want everybody to cheer to know what I think of some of the doctrine of John Higgie. And I don't have a problem with that, as long as everybody knows, as long as everybody knows, and that there are some good things in the book. Take what you can get, lean from it, and what you can't just forget it, and that's how I do it. Dr. M. Ardi Hahn is good as he is. One of the best Bible teachers ever was, when he gives the gospel, he says, whoever shall call upon name of Lord shall be saved. Is that a message you give with the gospel? No, it isn't. No, it isn't. Yeah, that's a good point. That's a good point. A lot of people call on him or not even know it. But that's not what it means when the Bible says, call on the name of Lord, shall be saved. That's not what what it means. Is that actually probably why his point got made to verse the Lord, Lord, and I'll say to part from the end of the new to you? Yeah. And that's another thing, another thing people do, you know, they supposedly cast out devils, cast out demons. And he or the sick, let's take any hand Francis, let's suppose somebody comes to his service and crippled or whatever. And at the end of the service they walk out where they couldn't walk before. Can that happen? Yes. Yes, again, the demon of Byzantium was making him sick, or maybe they were legitimately sick. But the demon of Byzantium had enough power to help this person, although he was crippled. So when the demon left him, they looked like they were clean, whole, okay? But that doesn't mean they were saved. That just means it's been a hand who has the power of Satan cast out a devil, a demon, so that he would look good and when he looked good, Satan looks good. Although the world doesn't see it that way. The world sees something else. It's a false message. And so all they're doing is leaving that person open for more demons. Jesus Christ. Yeah, that's exactly right. They'll come back sevenfold when the house is what clean. Yeah, and then Matthew chapter seven, where Christ said many shall say to me in that day, Lord, Lord. Many in is going to say, Lord, they now do this. Many in actually thinks he's safe. not because he's trusted prices to save you. I really doubt if he ever did. He's not the only one. There are so many others. And that's one of the things that John Higgie does. He had a brother that had epileptic fits. I don't know if you've ever seen an epileptic fit. They have medicine for that today. It's not nearly as predominant as it was. And he had him back. And his mother prayed and prayed and prayed and finally she said they went to church went to church and got healed in this book That I'm gonna hand out and we use one of the things I'm gonna point out Sunday. So you guys will have to hear this again But they went to and I'm gonna go into a little more detail But they went to the church and His brother got healed of the septal epiphythes supposedly maybe did But he didn't go to a Baptist church or enough of some he didn't go to the ordinary church knew they went to a Pentecostal church. What that wasn't what healed his brother if he legitimately did. What healed his brother was his mother's prayers. His mother prayed constantly. His mother may have been a Christian, I have no idea, but he probably was. I believe he was. But they were ingrained in the Pentecostal church, the assembly of God as a matter of fact, And that's where his brother supposedly got healed. And I don't believe that people get healed. They go on the church by some preacher laying their hands on them. I don't believe that people get healed by prayer. That's what heals people. And if the God doesn't want them healed, they will not be healed. But if Satan wants them to look like they're healed, they will look like they're healed. People need to know the difference. Yes, I think so. Yeah, as a matter of fact, that's what Revelation tells us. So then, yeah. And this would be the kingdom, right? Yes. No Babylon. No. No. On the just people that are lost. But I imagine it's going to be similar to the angels that are in heaven, the fall of Christ. One third of the angels, Revelation chapter 12, are followed Satan. I'm sorry. Sorry Lord. Yeah. It's going to be central to that. They just don't say follow Satan and rebel against God. People are going to do the same thing. After a thousand years of perfect peace and harmony, in a perfect world, an apple tree full of apples. And they'll just follow Satan to their doom. What may be a truth for you? It's the easiest way to out and come to the truth. Yeah. During the tribulation or the thousand year reign, it'll begin with nothing but saved people. Those people will have children, normal people. Those children will need to be saved or lost. Just no difference than it is today. The only difference is you don't have the kingdoms and the kings today that we then that we do now. Christ will be the king. He'll sit on the throne. The Bible specifically said that all nations will go into Jerusalem, the worship here. They will be obligated to do that. You will not have an option. And those who go in, who go this road in the juice on the wash of Christ, there'll be those liars who will not really wash up him. It'll just be lip service. And we have the same thing in our churches today. We have those who claim to be Christians, those who are holy, righteous, older than now, actually. And we have those in our churches today. And when the rapture takes place, I think the world's going to be surprise who goes and who doesn't. As a matter of fact, when you and I are taking this to rapture up into the air, you're going to see everybody going up with you and you're going to say, wow, I didn't know that guy was saved. And there going to be people left behind that you thought were you and I don't really know. We never know. All we can do is tell them how and the rest is up to them. the two. Why don't you say, I mean, like, as soon as it's done, I wouldn't they get saved right after that. They've seen that they weren't taken up. Who's that? All the people that got there were saved. They probably will. All the self-righteous that are left behind will probably be saved during the tribulation. Somebody has claimed that by the murder of them. Yeah, if they're lucky enough to survive, and not very many people will, because only one third of Jerusalem will be saved. Israel. And I think that's the number. No, it's one tenth, I'm sorry, one tenth. One tenth will be saved. And how many of Gentiles will be saved? There definitely will be. The Bible says so. I don't know how many. But if the nations go up into Jerusalem, that's not Israel. That's the nations. They have to be some Gentiles saved. But I think most of the people that are left behind that are self-righteous say, oh, I'm in trouble now. So I think a lot of them will be, and then there's going to be a lot of them, but I'll say, well, yes, the Bible was a whole line at the beginning where there's going to be that attitude. There's all kinds of attitudes that are going to be left behind. People that I have a chance at the end will die up to their point. They'll be dying. They'll be dying. We may get into that a little bit someday on who's going to die during the Kingdom and who won't, because there's going to be long lines. After the Repture happened. I've heard that. I've heard that. Yeah, you know how to refute that, don't you? Refute that. Yeah, that is a line. I'll show you what. They get saved, but they are the next wagon. Yeah, but what Daniel's saying, there are a lot of preachers that preach after the rapture of the church, it's impossible for anybody to be saved. That is not true. No, they're not by the church. No, those are the ones who are just read our call to the wedding. Those who are saved before the church age and after the church age. Those are the ones that are called to the wedding, but they're not the church. The church is anyone who gets saved during this dispensation. When the rapture takes place, the church is done. And I want to be the one who is sitting in the last person to Christ on the church. I want to be the one. I probably won't be, but it'd be neat, wouldn't it? Usually the last person to Christ when the church is complete, be the one who do it. I doubt it'll be me, but it'd be nice. As you chapter 25, verse 41, we're almost out of time here, just one verse, and verse 41, at the end of the seven-year tribulation, the battle of Armageddon takes place. We're going to come down on white horses, follow in the Lord Jesus Christ. We're going to come down with Him. The battle will take place. The beast and false prophet will be cast into the lake of fire, and then the rest of the world that is lost will be cast directly into the lake of fire, the only place in the Bible the first time anyone is ever there's nobody there today. There's nobody in the lake of fire today. Then she said then shall he say also unto them on the left hand depart from me ye cursed and do everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels. Same place the beast and false-properer cast at Revelation Chapter 19. Prepared for the devil and his angels. Wouldn't that be something? OK, back. Well, let's go to a revelation for we close here. Concern him what Daniel just said. We might as well answer that question before we close. And there are a couple of places. But the first one we want to go to is Revelation Chapter 6. I don't know why a preacher would say that. You'd think they would know better, but maybe they don't. Verse 9. What's that? They probably not pre-trew it. They're probably not pre-trew it. That's true. Yeah. But if you believe the Bible, you should know what the Bible says. And there are pre-tribbed, mid-tribbed, post-tribbed, all kinds of pre-tribbed is how we believe, of course. But in verse 9, when when we had opened a fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the Word of God. They were saved during the tribulation. were slain for the word of God and for the testimony of which they held. They had to be saved. How do I know they were saved during the seven year tribulation? Well, very simple. They were under the altar. They said, how long? What were they waiting for? They're glorified bodies. That's what they were waiting for. They didn't have it yet. The church does. So They were saved, and then they were like the Dalaii said, Revelation chapter 7, 144,000. And look over in chapter 7, verse 9, if you will. That's a good point right there. Yeah, two witnesses. There's all kinds of places to show the heaven is full, but he said, let's read verse 10. And they cried with a lot of boys saying, how long will Lord hold in through? Does thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth? And white robes were given under every one of them and it was said under them that they should rest yet for a little season until their fellow servants also and their brother and notice this, that should be killed as they were should be fulfilled, future. Very simple, isn't it? Is that right? Yes. How can you do that? I don't know. I don't know either. I'll tell you how you can do it. Whenever I hear a message like that. I relate it to self-righteousness. And if you really listen close, what they're saying is this. That's not going to happen to me because I'm living right. That's what they're saying. Yeah. And every time I hear that kind of a message, that's what I get out of. They're saying, I, that won't happen to me, I'm going to be one of those that go with a rapture. I won't be like this and that and this and that. And if he's left, I've heard a lot of people with a pretty good salvation message, but When it comes to the rapture, they hit it all fouled up and the seminar tribulation, and all boils down to one thing, self-righteousness every time. Okay, well, I think I've probably tried to cover too much here in the short period of time, but okay, I guess let's have word of parallel close, if you will. Dear Lord, we thank you for, well, just teach us your word. It's hard to believe how some people can get it fouled up when, But frankly, you make it awful simple. It's easy to understand. Dear Lord, we just thank You for the ability and just the ability to understand your word and the very fact that You gave us that ability. We thank You for it. And Christ's name, Amen.
