Sermon, END TIMES OPPOSITION.
Produced by God, presented through the Holy Ghost and by His Temple, Zach
We are living in a dying world that has rejected God, out of the White House, out of our Country, out of our Schools, out of th Pledge Of The Leadgents, out of most of our Churches and Jobs and Work Force. If you are a Christian, let me say that again. If you are a Reborn Again Christian? You will face opposition, every where you work. I have faced and still facing, that exact problem. I am filled with the Holy Ghost and when I face oppositions, I take it by the Word of God and it gets me into trouble, every time. That tells me, that I am doing something right, while the Work place, tells me that it is wrong. Guess Again? God created these work places so, God is in them. It’s Satan that is running the work forces and that is why, Christians are being persecuted for standing up for themselves and for Jesus Christ, God Almighty. Friends, this world is going to hell, fast in a hurry. Look at the White House, the Work Force, its all gone to being a muslim nation, right before your eyes. Not to mention, our so called president, is trying to force in, sheria Law, which is a very bad thing and its happening right now, in many of our States, Michigan is one of them. Friends of the world, in any way, shape or form, is an enemy of God. Satan is using people everyday, trying to attempt to destroy other people and souls, with anything that he can get his hands on, even through music. If you are not Saved and Reborn again, you will not make it to Heaven. These are the days of the End Times. Lets get going, from the readings of God’s Word. May God be with you.
King James Expositor Study Bible.
We will be using some of the corosponding Scriptures but, not all. Feel free to look them up on your own if you wish.
FAITH
1 John 2:18 Little children, it is the last time (all the period, from the First to the Second Advents may, in this sense, truly be called, “the last time”): and as you have heard that Antichrist shall come (the Apostle is speaking of the coming man of sin, who will make his debut after the Rapture of the Church), even now are there many Antichrists (in the Greek is “Pseudochrists,” and refers to one who claims to be of Christ); whereby we know that it is the last time. (We know this is the last dispensation before the Second Coming of the Lord.)
Matthew 24:44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as you think not the Son of Man cometh (when Israel, during the Battle of Armageddon, will have given up hope, Jesus will come!).
2 Peter 3:3-4 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers (speaks of the times in which we now live; they scoff at the Cross), walking after their own lusts (which will happen when the Cross is rejected), 4 And saying, Where is the Promise of his coming? (This refers to the Second Coming, not the Rapture. Endtime events as predicted in the Bible are met with scoffing.) for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the Creation. (The two major themes of the Word of God are the Atonement and Endtime events. If we have a proper understanding of the Atonement, we will have, I think, a proper understanding of the latter.)
Epesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood (our foes are not human; however, Satan constantly uses human beings to carry out his dirty work), but against principalities (rulers or beings of the highest rank and order in Satan’s kingdom), against powers (the rank immediately below the “Principalities”), against the rulers of the darkness of this world (those who carry out the instructions of the “Powers”), against spiritual wickedness in high places. (This refers to demon spirits.)
Acts 17:30-31 And the times of this ignorance God winked at (does not reflect that such ignorance was Salvation, for it was not! before the Cross, there was very little Light in the world, so God withheld Judgment); but now commands all men every where to repent (but since the Cross, the “Way” is open to all; it’s up to us Believers to make that “Way” known to all men): 31 Because He has appointed a day (refers to the coming of the Great White Throne Judgment [Rev. 20:11-15]), in the which He will Judge the world in Righteousness by that Man Whom He has ordained (this Righteousness is exclusively in Christ Jesus and what He has done for us at the Cross, and can be gained only by Faith in Him [Eph. 2:8-9; Rom. 10:9-10,13; Rev. 22:17]); whereof He has given assurance unto all men, in that He has raised Him from the dead (refers to the Resurrection ratifying that which was done at Calvary, and is applicable to all men, at least all who will believe!). GREAT WHITE THRONE JUDGMENT Rev. 20:11-15 11 And I saw a Great White Throne (proclaims the final Judgment of the unredeemed, which will take place at the end of the Kingdom Age), and Him Who sat on it (proclaims none other than God; however, we must understand that it is the Person of the Godhead, the Lord Jesus Christ [Mat. 25:31]; He is the Saviour today; He will be the Judge tomorrow), from Whose face the Earth and the Heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. (This means a New Heaven and New Earth are in the offing.) 12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God (pertains to the second Resurrection, the Resurrection of Damnation [I Cor., Chpt. 15; I Thess. 4:13-18; Jn. 5:29]); and the Books were opened: and another Book was opened, which is the Book of Life: and the dead were Judged out of those things which were written in the Books, according to their works (proclaims the manner of Judgment). 13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and Hell delivered up the dead which were in them (points to the fact that every unredeemed person who has ever lived will face the Great White Throne Judgment; none will be exempted): and they were Judged every man according to their works (records the fact that this Judgment is not arbitrary, but is based on absolute Justice). 14 And death and Hell were cast into the Lake of Fire (combined, includes the wicked of all ages). This is the second death (Eternal separation from God and the Lake of Fire). 15 And whosoever was not found written in the Book of Life (refers to the record of all the unredeemed) was cast into the Lake of Fire. (This includes every single individual who isn’t Redeemed, beginning with Adam and Eve. That is, if they didn’t come back to God.) Eph. 2:8-9 For by Grace (the Goodness of God) are you Saved through Faith (Faith in Christ, with the Cross ever as its Object); and that not of yourselves (none of this is of us, but all is of Him): it is the Gift of God (anytime the word “Gift” is used, God is speaking of His Son and His Substitutionary Work on the Cross, which makes all of this possible): 9 Not of works (man cannot merit Salvation, irrespective what he does), lest any man should boast (boast in his own ability and strength; we are allowed to boast only in the Cross [Gal. 6:14]). Rom. 10:9-10 That if you shall confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus (confess that Jesus is the Lord of Glory, and the Saviour of men, and that He died on the Cross that we might be Saved), and shall believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead (pertains to the Bodily Resurrection of Christ, as is obvious), you shall be Saved (it is that simple!). 10 For with the heart man believes unto Righteousness (presents the word “believing” in a mode of “thinking,” not of feeling; the “believing” has to do with believing Christ, and that His Sacrifice of Himself Atoned for all sin); and with the mouth confession is made unto Salvation (when Faith comes forth from its silence to announce itself and proclaim the Glory and the Grace of the Lord, its voice “is confession”). Rev. 22:17 And the Spirit and the Bride say, Come. (This presents the cry of the Holy Spirit to a hurting, lost, and dying world. What the Holy Spirit says should also be said by all Believers.) And let him who hears say, Come. (It means if one can “hear,” then one can “come.”) And let him who is athirst come (speaks of spiritual thirst, the cry for God in the soul of man). And whosoever will, let him take the Water of Life freely (opens the door to every single individual in the world; Jesus died for all and, therefore, all can be Saved, if they will only come). I Thess. 4:13-18 But I would not have you to be ignorant, Brethren, concerning them which are asleep (refers to Believers who have died), that you sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. (This concerns those who do not know the Lord who will have no part in the First Resurrection of Life and, therefore, no hope for Heaven.) 14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again (the very Foundation of Christianity is the Death and Resurrection of Christ; it is the proof of life after death in a glorified state for all Saints in that life, which incidentally will never end), even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with Him. (This refers to the Rapture of the Church, or the Resurrection of all Believers, with both phrases meaning the same thing, even as Paul describes in I Cor., Chpt. 15. At death, the soul and the spirit of the Child of God instantly go to be with Jesus [Phil. 1:23], while the physical body goes back to dust. At the Rapture, God will replace what was the physical body with a Glorified Body, united with the soul and the spirit. In fact, the soul and the spirit of each individual will accompany the Lord down close to this Earth to be united with a Glorified Body, which will then make the Believer whole.) 15 For this we say unto you by the Word of the Lord (presents the Doctrine of the Rapture of the Church as the “Word of the Lord”), that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord (all Believers who are alive at the Rapture) shall not prevent them which are asleep. (This refers to the fact that the living Saints will not precede or go before the dead Saints.) 16 For the Lord Himself shall descend from Heaven with a shout (refers to “the same Jesus” which the Angels proclaimed in Acts 1:11), with the voice of the Archangel (refers to Michael, the only one referred to as such [Jude, Vs. 9]), and with the Trump of God (doesn’t exactly say God will personally blow this Trumpet, but that it definitely does belong to Him, whoever does signal the blast): and the dead in Christ shall rise first (the criteria for being ready for the Rapture is to be “in Christ,” which means that all who are truly Born-Again will definitely go in the Rapture): 17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up (Raptured) together with them (the Resurrected dead) in the clouds (clouds of Saints, not clouds as we normally think of such), to meet the Lord in the air (the Greek word for “air” is “aer,” and refers to the lower atmosphere, or from about 6,000 feet down; so, the Lord will come at least within 6,000 feet of the Earth, perhaps even lower, with all the Saints meeting Him there; but He, at that time, will not come all the way to the Earth, that awaiting the Second Coming, which will be seven or more years later): and so shall we ever be with the Lord. (This presents the greatest meeting humanity will have ever known.) 18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words. (This pertains to the future of the Child of God, which is Glorious indeed!) Jn. 5:29 And shall come forth (portrays both Resurrections as we shall see, and according to His “Voice”); they who have done good, unto the Resurrection of Life (pertains to the First Resurrection, or as commonly referred, “The Rapture” [I Thess. 4:13-18]); and they who have done evil, unto the Resurrection of Damnation (this last Resurrection will take place approximately a thousand years after the First Resurrection of Life [Dan. 12:2; Rev., Chpt. 20]). Gal. 6:14 But God forbid that I should glory (boast), save in the Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ (what the opponents of Paul sought to escape at the price of insincerity is the Apostle’s only basis of exultation), by Whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world. (The only way we can overcome the world, and I mean the only way, is by placing our Faith exclusively in the Cross of Christ and keeping it there.)
Matthew 28:20 Teaching them (means to give instruction) to observe all things (the whole Gospel for the whole man) whatsoever I have commanded you (not a suggestion): and, lo, I am with you always (It is I, Myself, God, and Man, Who am — not “will be” — hence, forever present among you, and with you as Companion, Friend, Guide, Saviour, God), even unto the end of the world (should have been translated “age”). Amen (it is the guarantee of My Promise).
Come to the Cross in Repentance and get Saved today. God Bless
