My, I got a cousin in California, she sends me a literature from her pastor, his name John Torrell, and he puts out a pretty lengthy newsletter every week, and she sent me every one of them through in the whole year, the biggest thing. And he's kind of, he's got a strange way of looking at things, he condemns everybody and everything, and he just, I'll bring some of it in while I didn't, and you'll be read it if you're interested, but it's just, I can't say anything to her about it, I don't know what to tell her, but he's kind of like he's half-penning cost, half-four, half against it. He's anti-Jewish. Wow. Oh yeah, he's anti-Jewish. Yeah, that's in my opinion, that's, and it's kind of like he's pro-era, which is just, I don't understand that, and he thinks he's right, but that's not even biblical. I mean, I know that the Jews aren't perfect, and they make a lot of mistakes. They do a lot of things wrong, and I know that they still, and I know this, the only people are going to go to heaven whether Jew or Gentile are those that trust Christ as their Savior. So we've got to be a lot of Jews in hell, awful lot, but there's going to be a lot of Gentiles there too. Nevertheless, there are God's chosen nation, and he tells us not to condemn them, whoever cursed thee, he said, I will curse. I try not to do it. And I don't understand it, but there's a lot of anti-Jews out there, so-called Christians, it's really strange. Okay, before we begin, do we have any questions? Before we begin, none? Okay, good. We're going to do a little study on Revelation Chapter 7. We're going to take a look at some things here and we're going to answer a couple of questions that might go if you've got your Bible with you might want to mark them in your Bible so you'll have the answers. And the reason I'm going to do that is because if Max Houts does the ordination, you'll be asking some of these questions, so I want you to know the answers to some of these. But in Revelation chapter 7, we've been through this before but I think we're going to do a brief study on it because we haven't done that out of Blake Hadley. I gave you guys some notes on this but we're going to take a brief look at it anyway. 144,000 out of the tribe of Israel, all men, and in verse 3, Revelation chapter 7, it says, saying, hurt not the earth, neither the sea nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads, and these are the 144,000. The same ones have mentioned in the chapter 6 verse, in chapter 6 verse 60, oil in the wine, these are the same. The oil and the wine represent the fruit of the fruit, which is the saved out of Israel. They're going to go into the kingdom. That's my opinion. Now you may meet another preacher that doesn't go along with that, but that's the way I see it. So we're going to answer a couple of questions. And one of those is there are some people that claim that the United States has mentioned in prophecy. Well, that's a joke. And one of the places they use is Zephyl chapter 39, or Zephyl chapter 19, they use the word young lions. And they say that Israel, or not Israel, Great Britain and the United States are the young lions. And they do that to try to prove that the United States is Babylon of Revelation, which is pretty stupid. But anyway, one of the people is a guy by the name of Scutter in Minnesota who graduated from Florida Bible College, same college Max Young's graduated from, and they used to be good friends until he started teaching his doctorate and then he and Max Young started falling out. And that's probably a good thing, yeah, no, actually, maybe he did, yeah, the first one he went to school was a Calvinist college. Then he went to that one, yeah, you're right, and I don't know what kind of education he got, but the pastor's cutter there, the guy that started at college just went, I don't know why people do it, he just went way off, they just went completely, and why they do them, well the reason is money, because you begin to hobnob with people, and I guess this pastor's cutter started sending out invitations all over the state, go fishing with pastor's daughter charter a boat and do this and pay this kind of money and when you get into money you know that's so. So that happens and it makes me grateful that I have a small church and that I don't have a lot of money, it makes me grateful and I think the Lord does that people just keep you on the straight and narrow and I appreciate it. I appreciate where I am, I appreciate my position, I appreciate everything the Lord does for me and he does it you know he just does it and you take people like not don't get me wrong John Hagee makes probably a little over a million dollars a year that's if you're gonna if you do a good job the Lord nothing wrong will have a money the Lord will give people money but I think you do a better job if you don't have and yeah at times yeah he is one of the things he does is he writes books on prophecy and one of the things him and somebody other preachers are in too is when it comes to Israel I think they're wrong about this the support Israel thing this support Israel send money to an organization so they can bring the Jews back into the land well I don't think that's biblical and I don't believe it I don't believe that's I think we're close to the rapture anyway, there are so many things small on the world that it's an anti-Christ society we live in. It's worldwide, but one of the most anti-Christ things taken place in the world is the Muslim religion, in my opinion, that is the ultimate anti-Christ organization, denomination, religion in the world of the day and it's just, it's damnable and I think the anti-Christ is going to, I think when he comes along he will be a Muslim. He'll be a Syrian, Isaiah chapter 10 and 11 and I think he'll be a Muslim but he's also going to be Jewish and we're going to take a look at that a little bit too. But I don't, I don't put the Jews up on the pedestal, I don't do that, but I don't condemn them either. I know they put Christ at the cross, they had to do that, But they did it with hate and anger. They shouldn't have done that. They should have put him up on the cross with love and understanding. But they did what they did, but anyway, there are God's people. If he wants a condemnation, that's up to him. I'm certainly not going to do it. Anyway, verse 4, and I heard the number of them which were sealed, and they were sealed 144,000 of all the tribes of the children of Israel. Not jubil with us. Of the tribe of Judah, we're sealed 12,000 of the tribe of Ruben, we're sealed 12,000, the tribe of Biyad, 12,000 of the tribe of Asher, 12,000 of the tribe of Met Fallis, 12,000, the tribe of Menasa, 12,000 of the tribe of Simeon, 12,000, Levi, 12,000, Issacar, 12,000, 12,000, Zebulon 12,000, Joseph 12,000, Benjamin 12,000, 144,000 of all the tribes of Israel. Now then, hold your place there, if you will, and let's go back here to Genesis 35, I think. This is where we want to go here. Genesis 35. Hold your place there, if you will. We have a list here, chapter 35. Let's begin here, if you will, in verse 21. And Israel journeyed and spread its tempy on the tower of Edaar, and it came to pass when Israel dwell in the land that Ruben went and laid with Bill as Bob is comped by, and Israel heard it. Now the sons of Jacob were 12. That's another story, but anyway, the sons of Lea, Ruben, Simeon, I'm not going to read the names of the tribe. Samayam, Levi, Judah, Isaacar, Zebulon, Joseph, Benjamin, Dan, Natali, Gad, and Asher. One of these names is Missingam in Revelation Chapter 7, which one is it? Dan. Dan is missing and there's a reason for it. There's a reason for that. Let's just go over here, if you will, to chapter 49, I believe, here where we want to go. There's a reason for that. In chapter 49, and I'm going to give you some things that you might mark in your Bible here, if you like. We have the names of all the tribes listed one more time, but we have a lot of other things we're going to take a look at, and look in verse 8, if you will. Judah, thou art he whom thy brethren shall praise. Thy hand shall be in the neck of thine enemies. Thy father's children shall bow down before thee. Judah, his alliance, what? Remember what we said about the lion? Remember what we said about some of the churches that believed that the lion is United States of America and Great Britain. Now we're going to look at that a little further later on. And my duration I'm doing is because I want you to know that the Great Britain and United States of America is not mentioned in Bible prophecy. As a matter of fact, I think as soon as the rapture takes place, the United States of America will still be here, but we will not have the same government, the same we will not have our Constitution. It'll be irrelevant. Because one of the 10 kings that we've been studying, remember the times of the Gentiles, 10 kings are going to rule with the anti-Christ. One of those kings will be the king of this continent that we're living on. There are going to be ten kings scattered all over the world that will rule with the Antichrist. This nation will be part of the kingdom that one of those kings will rule from. And to those that are alive on this earth, on especially this great country we live in, it will not be the same. And believe me, we're headed there today. We are definitely headed there today. We were talking a couple of guys and myself When you guys came in about John Kerry and Hillary Clinton, and they're not the only ones of Republicans and Democrats. There are so many people in our government that can't wait for the one-world government, and they're promoting it. As a matter of fact, John Kerry is over in Damascus right now talking to the Arabian nations, and well, we just love you, and you don't need to bomb us. We just love you the pieces. You guys, you don't, you know, what a joke. But he wants to be part of the world community. You know why? Because if they become part of the world community, and they think they're going to be big time leaders wrong, the anti-Christ will just destroy those idiots. They'll destroy them. That's just more than anything in the world today. We talk about all the conspiracies in the world. There are hundreds of them. And another thing I'd like to point out, Some of the important Jewish leaders are behind a lot of the conspiracies that are going on in the world of death Believe me. So there's a lot of things going on that I really don't like to talk about too much in church because I don't like our people dwelling on it. I'm just assuming I get dwell on the Bible. That's an important thing. But anyway Judah aligns well and he stooped down. He couched, crouched as a lion and as an old lion. Who shall rouse him up? The scepter shall not be depart from Judah, nor a log giver from between his feet until Shiloh come. And unto him shall the gathering of the people be. The word Shiloh is in reference to the Lord Jesus Christ. It's a suggestion of the Messiah. The word a Shiloh means to be tranquil, safe and at peace. The sector is what they used to use. We've mentioned this many times is what the ruler put between his feet and it usually had the seal on the top. It was like a cane and when they would seal something they turned the sector upside down, stamped their seal on it, and it was permanent. If you'll remember reading In Daniel, a Nebuchadnezzar would seal something, and when he sealed it was permanent. It was a vendeele. He was a king. When all the scepter, the ruler, Jesus Christ, the scepter, is the one who is going to carry the scepter. He is the law giver. And when he comes, he's going to come, remember, he came out of the tribe of Judah. Remember that. Okay. The word scepter is a word shabet, S-H-E-B-E-T, and that means a rod of correction, ruler, writing, fighting, walking, whatever. And it's the staff, the ruler used to, if you ever watched a movie, you'd see some of the movies they had at right, the king had sit on the throne, and he'd have the sector between his legs, the ruler. And when he stamps something with it, he'd turn it upside down and mark his stamp on it. Price is the ruler, he's the shallow, and he's the long giver, so the set-sector came from the tribe of Judah. Put down a reference if you like, number's 24, chapter 17, if you like, write that down there. Okay, now look it back up here in verse 16, if you will. Remember we said, Dan is not mentioned in Revelation chapter 7 and the reason is, he will not rule. The tribe of Dan will not rule and became them. But I want you to notice something here, what it says in verses 16 and 17. It sounds like I'm wrong, God knows if you read this. Dan shall judge his people as one of the tribes of Israel. But notice the next verse, Dan shall be a serpent by the way and adder in the path that by the horse heels so that his rider shall fall backward. Now let me tell you what I think all this means. If the nation of Israel, whenever a Jew gets saved or when they realize what the New Testament says, this is their interpretation of that verse, I like to read it to you. I wrote it down. The tribe of Dan will judge his people or provide the anti-Christ which will cause his people to fall backwards. Why? Because they were the first to fall away from God. The tribe of Dan was the first one to fall away from God. I hope you're placed there, if you will, and we'll take a little closer look here at drive a ban and we want to go to a Zika chapter of 37 I think in 48.1 we have a couple places we want to go to here. First place we want to go is Joshua chapter 19 I think and then we want to go to the judges but we want to go to Joshua first of all. Joshua chapter 19 if I find this here chapter 19, yeah. Now we're just going to point some things out here then we'll get on. And the seventh lot came out for the tribe of the children of Ben according to their families. So the point is, the tribe of Ben has an inheritance in the kingdom. They have an inheritance but they're not mentioned in Revelation chapter 7. And the reason is because they were the first ones to fall away from God but they still have an inheritance. Looking at a lot of places I want to go here. Chapter 18 verse, you know, I think actually all the way through 26. I don't know if we want to cover the whole thing or not though. I don't think we're going to take time to read this. Let's go over if you will to two judges. Look of judges. We'll reach chapter 18 over there. One, if you will. And we could probably read the whole thing but we're not going to take time to do that. In those days there was no king in Israel And in those days, the tribe of the daynights saw an inheritance to go out with him. For under that day, all their inheritance had not fallen under them among the tribes of Israel. Now, we already saw in Joshua that they had an inheritance and got it already given to him, but they weren't happy with it. And the children of Dan sent of their family, five men from their coast, men of valor from Zora, and from their toll to spy out the land to search it. And they said unto them, go search the land who, when they came to mount Ephraim to the house of Micah, lodged there. When they were by the house of Micah, they recognized the voice of the young man. My Bible says, recognize or knew, believe I, and they returned there and so forth. Verse 4, he said unto them, thus and thus deal with Micah with me and hath hired me, and I am thy priest and so forth and so forth. So they went searching land, or it's 14 if you will, turn over here. Then I answered the five men who went to spy out the country of Gleish and said unto their brethren, do you know that there are in these houses any fods, tarot and graven image, a molten image. Now therefore consider what we have to do. And they turned from there and came to the house of a young man to leave, even with the awesome Micah and saluted or greeted him. And the five men went out of the land and so forth took the graven image, etc., and turned over to verse 27, if you will. And they took the things which Micah had made and the priest which he had and came to at least, unto a people who were quiet and secure, and they smoked them with the edge of the sword and burned the city with fire. And there was no deliverance because it was far from side on, and they had no business with any man. And it was in that valley that last by the three Hobbes, and they built the city and dwell in it. And they called the name of the city Dan, heck with the name of Dan their father, who was born into Israel, albeit the name of the city was laid at the first, and the children of Dan set up a graven image. And Jonathan, the son of Gershon, the son of Manasseh, he and his sons were priests of the tribe of Dan until the day of the captivity of the land and so forth and so forth. So the daynights were the first ones to revolt. They left away from God, walked away from God, set up their graven images, and so because of that they lost their right to rule, but they know the verses we just looked at said they rule and the Israelites have a meaning for that, and I believe it's accurate, but they will rule through the anti-Christ during the seven-year kingdom, but they still have an inheritance. Turned over to Zika of Chapter 37, if you will. They still have inheritance. God is not unright, unrighteous. A lot of verses in Zika have to do with the private ban, but we're just going to look at some of those. Let's see here. This is concerning the sign of the two sticks, but let's go on down here to verse 23, if you will. Verse 23, neither shall they talk about Israel when they go into the kingdom, neither shall they be pardoned, so as any more with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions, but I will save them out of all their dwelling places in which they have sined, and and we'll cleanse them. So shall they be my people, and I will be their God. So what's God is saying here? Even the tribe of man, no matter how much they did wrong, God says, I'm gonna bring you into the land. You're still my people. You're still, you're still belong to me. And then chapter 30, what's the chapter 48 here? And we'll just look at a couple of verses here. And the kingdom. Now this represents the kingdom. Now, these are the names of the tribes from the north end to the coast of the way of Hethlon. As one go to Hameth, the border of Damascus northward to the coast of Hameth, where these are its sides, east and west, a portion for Dan. And by the border of Dan, from the east side and to the west side, a portion for Asher. So God says, each one of the tribes mentioned here is going to receive their inheritance. Look in verse 10. for them, even the pre-shub, be his holy oblation toward the north, five, and twenty-thousand and length, and so forth, and so forth. In verse 23, as for the rest of the triads from the east side and the west side, Benjamin shall have a portion, and the bottom border of the Benjamin from the east side to the west side, some may own, and then Issacar, everybody's going to have their portion in the kingdom, just like God promised, but Dan has lost their right to rule. And then God said, he's going to give that right to Manasseh, you know, who Manasseh was, by the way? Yes. He was. God gave it to Joseph's son, God as a matter of fact, Israel or Jacob told Joseph that when they were still, and when they were just before he died, he said, Manasseh, he told him that Manasseh would rule with Israel. And that's what he was talking about. He said, in the latter days, that's what Israel said. Now then, let's answer a couple of questions, if you will. what's that? During the time of the judges, as a matter of fact, the tribe of Dan sent immediately. As soon as they were given their possession, the nation of Israel went into the Promised Land, and then God promised each one of them a possession. Dan took their possession, but it wasn't big enough for them. And so they went to the other nations, they They went out of their territory, they wanted more land, they went into the territory of the people they were supposedly feeding them, they accepted their idols and so forth and them was the first nation of the tribe of Israel to rebel against God so they lost their right to rule during the thousand year reign. They're still going to get their inheritance, by the way, they'll still be there. Today, however, if Jew doesn't know have any idea what tribe they belong to, I don't Some of them, you might hear what you say, they know, but most of them will say they belong to the tribe of Benjamin. I don't know why that's important to them, but they will. And I don't think they honestly know which tribe they belong to. I've heard a lot of you say they belong to the tribe of Benjamin. Paul did. He said he belonged to the tribe of Benjamin, but he knew it. But I've heard a lot of Jews today say that I've never heard one say they belong to the tribe of Issac or I've never heard one say that, it's kind of strange how it stopped. Anyway, good question anymore. Any more questions? Yeah, he said that Manasseh would rule Israel did. Just before he died in Isaiah chapter 49, he said to Momasa would rule with Israel. In the latter years he said, he didn't put it that way, but if you read the context, just before he was on his deathbed, Israel or Jacob was on his deathbed, called Joseph Henton and laid his hand on Momasa and also Joseph's other son and said they would rule. And that's what he was talking about, I firmly believe. You had a question, Linda? Well, I'm sorry, I'm not saying anything. Who'd go ahead? Yeah, you can. I actually don't have to be afraid to listen around. Uh-huh. Something about trying to find one of the programs who were sent away to Ethiopia, some of the prints there, some of the talk of dead, and if they might have the art around it, some of them. No. But I will say this. There are a lot of Jews in Africa. Africa. There are a lot of Jews in Ireland, but there were really a lot of Jews in Ethiopia. As a matter of fact, a lot of those Jewish people in Ethiopia, the Jews brought to Israel because they were being persecuted. And you wouldn't know they were a Jew, but all they had to do was prove that their mother, and I don't know why they didn't go to the father, but all they had to do was prove that their mother because in the Bible, the genealogy always goes back to the Father, not to the mother. But they all had to prove that their mother was Jewish and they always managed to do that, and they sent a plane after him and took him back to Israel. But no, they were a lot of that. But as far as being from the tribe of Dan, I don't know how they would even prove that. I can't believe in the apple and what's on it to be. Well, yeah, it was sort of like the other day there was on the history channel, they had a special on the Bible. I lost about a half a second of that. Yeah, I can't handle that stuff. I get angry in total things and new idiots and they always get some jerk that has no idea what the Bible's talking about telling everybody what it's talking about. They never get anybody reputable. I never did understand that, but that's true. There were a lot of Jews in Ethiopia and Africa. Yes. The problem with NASA is that it could have opened. May I know that we read it in a detailed or I mean? Oh, the truth. It's excluded in regulation. He's excluded. And that's why the NASA is added in regulation. Okay. You'll see the name of the NASA there. It takes the place of Dan. But only because of the fact that Dan's sin. But Dan still gets their inheritance. They're just not. They don't get the reputation. Yeah. I'm going to try it there. It is real cool. 12? Yes, they do. Yeah, that's ironic too. Yeah, there were 12 tribes of the 12 erratic tribes and 12 tribes of Israel. Yeah, that's ironic, but there's basically only 12. I mean, they they split, they cannot split geneologically, they split ideologically. That's why there are so many of you. This is a thing about a tweet that I wouldn't know as a living. It was the first chapter that we've seen all these points, three points, all that it does. It was a return to the nation that got there. You know, this interesting stuff is really smart thing. But a better one is not really one of the tribes, better one is some like on the hillbilly. I guess that's the best thing I can talk about. Okay, let's answer another question. Turn over to Deuteronomy chapter 34, if you will. Some of you probably know this. Remember that the Lord Jesus Christ called the Genesis, Exodus, Ridiculous Numbers, and Deuteronomy, the books of Moses, right? The five books of Moses, and we believe that he wrote all five books. But notice in Deuteronomy chapter 34, now some of you to set under Macchamps probably are aware of this, but some of you may not be. So Moses in verse five, the servant of the Lord died there in the land of Moab, according to the word of the Lord. He buried him in a valley, the land of Moab, over against Beth Pior, but no man know of the bishop. You're on to this day. By the way, if you're Bible, if you have any notes, it'll say Jude 9, Satan would like to know where his body is, but nobody does. And Moses was 120 years old when he died, and his eye was not dim nor his natural force abated. And the children of Israel went for Moses in Plains of Moab 30 days, so the days of weeping in mourning were for Moses were ended. And Joshua, the son of none, was full of spirit of wisdom for Moses that laid his hands upon him and the children of Israel harkened unto him as did and did as the Lord commanded Moses. And there arose not a prophet since in Israel, like unto Moses, whom the Lord knew face to face. And all the signs and wonders which the Lord had sent him to do in the land of Egypt and all the servants and all, verse 12, and in all that mighty hand and in all the great terror which Moses showed in the sight of all Israel. So if Moses wrote, due to the wrong of me, and he died there, who wrote this? Moses, the servant of the Lord, died in the land of Moab. Who wrote this? No, I think Moses did. I think the Lord told him ahead of time. He knew he was going to die. Notice what it says in verse 9, notice what it says, and did as Lord commanded Moses. And look on verse, look on up if you will. No man knows if it's a falter. And notice that his eye was not dim in verse 7, nor his natural force abated. He was perfectly healthy, but he died. And the reason he died is because he fouled up and God said, you're not going to go into promised land. I'm going to send the rest of the nation in there, but you're not going, so he died. I think he knew it. Some people might think that's strange, but didn't Peter know he was going to die? Didn't he say I'm going to put off my tabernacle shortly as the Lord had shown me? Certainly. I hope the Lord never tells me before I die. Personally, I hope he just kills me. I want to go like Darling Dana's mom. That's Well, I want to go. She came home laid down and that was it. Lord will probably punish the heck out of me, but I sure hope that. But be nice, but. Where's Julie? I'd like to experience your vital look as all the men. Yeah. Be my luck though. I'll suffer for six months. Anyway, yeah, plenty. Okay, turn over here to Exodus chapter one, if you will. We're going to answer one more question. And then we'll go ahead and call the intake. Yeah, X is one. I have two more questions, quite frankly. I have two more questions to answer, I think. Before we answer the one, let's go over here to chapter two. If you were, we'll be here to chapter two. We're going to answer a question. In verse 18, concerning Moses' father-in-law, some of you may have the answer to this one too, I don't know if you do or not. Look at verse 18 of chapter 2, Moses watered the flock of the priests of so forth. And when they came to Rio, their father, he said, how is it that year comes so soon today? And they said in the Egyptian, the liberal side of the hand of the shepherd. And back up to verse 16, now the priests of Medidien had seven daughters and they came and drew water and filled the troughs to water their father's flock. The shepherds came and drove them away, but Moses stood up and helped them and watered their flock, and so they came to real their father. Now I'm down to chapter 3 verse 1, if you will. Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro, his father-in-law, the priest of Median. Let me ask you a question. What's his real name? Jethro or real? What do you think about the fermentant? It'll give you the answer. It's pretty simple, really. No, they were the same person, they were the same person. Notice the key word here, he was a priest of Medina. Yeah, he had two names, his real name is real name. Jethro means his excellency. His real name was real, but his preceding name was Jethro. The name means it's an honorary name for a position. That's why I had two names, pretty simple, huh? Yeah, like a title. It's sort of like, I don't know if anybody, nobody became a Catholic and then they go through the Catholic education and then when they get christened or whatever it is, they get a Catholic name. They'll give you a name like a thing like Peter, Jude or something. Well, yeah, I was told that we might start us over there at his, his mother was going to be put for priesthood because she performed three miracles. Oh really? Well, in that case, I should be a priest. She's going to be a saint. Oh, yeah. She, she, uh, did three miracles. Well, let's, uh, see if we can germ up a miracle and we can all be seen. Miracle left. We are saints. That goes you saints. Yeah, you will call them, you will call them saints. Hard to believe right now. Yeah, I know it's hard to believe no, that's another ring this guy get that literature from he condemns the penicostle but he believes in the gifts of the spirit. He believes that every person can heal and cast out demons. Yeah it's it's strange he has the same stuff but I'll bring some of those here if you're interested in reading. I'm going to make some copies and send him that channel, she might be in a restaurant, I don't know. Okay, it turned out Jim is just chapter her, I'm sorry, actually the chapter one, if you will. Well, you turn it there, I'm gonna lift something up here, make sure I get to that first. It does help. It doesn't help that much. I really don't know. Well, it's just something that came down through the this through the ancestor line, it's just, it's that simple, but as far as what tribe they come from, it's sort of like, no, it's just a genealogy that they keep track of, orally, basically, it would be like, we take people that have a Bible with a family tree in it, and they list a family tree and they go back for centuries entries and my wife's sister. She's into this genealogy thing, and she's traced their family back for hundreds of years. And so, yeah, they can do that. But together, remember, in 70 AD, the Titus destroyed all the records. So they have no idea. It'd be like every courthouse in the state of Ohio, we're all destroyed. There goes the records of everybody's birth, you know, unless you've got a record at home somehow or other, and so the records can be destroyed. In what? I don't know, but turn over here, we'll come back here. Now, let me read this verse, Genesis chapter 15, verse 16, God told Abraham. He said, no, I'm surety that I see shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs. Some of you may have the answer to this too. I'm sure Dolly probably does. Genesis chapter 15, verse 13. Yeah, we're going to go back to Exodus shortly. No, I'm surety that I see shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs. And shall serve them and they shall afflict them 400 years, okay, 400 years. Now then, back over to exercise, if you will. The answer to this is very simple too, by the way. Verse 10, exercise chapter 1. Come on, let us deal wisely with them, unless they multiply. That's the Egyptians talking about the Jews. And it comes to pass that when we have war, or they're followed out any war, war comes, they join also unto our enemies and fight against us and so get them out of the land. Therefore, they did set over them taskmasters to afflict them with burdens, and they built for Pharaoh, treasure cities, and so forth, but the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and grew, and they agreed because of the children of Israel, and the gypsies made the children of Israel serve with rigor, and they made their lives bitter, with hard bondage and mortar and brick and so forth and so forth. And if you go to the Exodus chapter 12, verse 41, I believe it's where we want to go. Exodus chapter 12, verse 41, verse 40, now the sole journey of the children of Israel, who dwelt in Egypt, was 430 years and it came to pass at the end of the 430 years, even in the self-same day, it came to pass that all the hosts of the Lord went out from the land of Egypt. We just read that God told Abraham that they would be afflicted for 400 years. Now we have 430 years. What's the answer to this one? You know, Dolly? Okay, we're free for the first 30. That's true. Yeah. And the answer is in Exodus chapter 1, verse 8 and 9. And that's the answer. It's very simple. You know, some of these things we have, I've heard TV preachers and I've heard these… I've watched these Bible things on television and so forth, they try to answer these they can't. But the answer is very simple if you know the Bible. Verse 8. Now there goes a new king over Egypt, who knew not Joseph. So they were in there for 30 years, they were free. And he said unto those people, behold, the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we. And so for 400 years they made slaves over. So the answer is very simple, isn't it? Pretty simple. Okay. No, I think that's all we're going to do tonight. Let's take a clock anyway. Okay. Is there any questions before we close? Okay. How come we got so many people here tonight? Okay. And answer that one again. I can't even. I would just ramble them on. I just said how come we have so many people here tonight? Okay. Let's have a word of burning in my clothes and get a piece of cake in my cup. Dear Lord, we thank you for your word. The Bible always answered the Bible. There's an answer for everything that doesn't matter how big or how small. The answer is always there and dear Lord, we thank You for Your word. It's exciting and interesting. And once You know it and understand it, it makes a lot of sense and it proves itself. And the reason it proves itself is because God wants us to know that the Bible is true and accurate. He doesn't lie. He promised us eternal life and He wants us to believe it. And that's why He allows us to go to the Bible and prove His word is true. and dear Lord, we thank You for. Thank You for those that are here this evening in Christ's name. Amen.
