You was healed of cancer. We prayed for you. Hallelujah. Love. The fourth gathering. Yeah. At the fourth gathering the first Sunday. On the first Sunday here. At the fourth gathering, Somebody shout, hallelujah. We pray for you at the fourth gathering. First Sunday here. Yeah, I remember we had the impromptu gathering on the first Sunday. Yes. Yes. You're gonna miss your flight. I told him. Told them two men stay and miss your flight. You was in the room when we had the altar call, and we prayed over you. They said, you have cancer. You've been to the doctor and you've been healed. Now, how can you cake? But somebody said they've been healed of cancer. Signs, wonders and miracles. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. You know, my. When I started my ministry, my father was dying of cancer. And we prayed for him, but he didn't. He didn't survive. He transitioned to glory three months after we planted our church. And he never got a chance to see what God would do with my life or with the ministry. And I only mention that to you and to everybody else because we prayed for you. And God healed you in this life. He healed my father in the next life. But. But it's important that if God does not move the way you want him to move now, it's important that we don't give up faith. Because if I would have lost faith, I would not have the faith to pray for that woman back there. So he. He may not always respond the way you want him to, but he will respond according to his will. She is healed in this life. My father is healed in the next life, and we all will be healed in Christ's name. Thank you. No. I love you. I love you. I love you. If you are a guest to 2819, we welcome you to our gathering and to our church family where we're serious about the spread of the gospel and the multiplying of disciples. If you're a digital disciple, watching me live right now across the nation and around the world, we welcome you to 2019. You are our family. I have a huge announcement coming for you at the end of this gathering. And if you're not a follower of Jesus Christ, we know that you're in here. We just want to say we're thankful that you're among us right now. We want you to know that you could belong before you believe. You could be amongst us before you believe in. Our prayer for you is that you would hear the invitation of Christ and respond with humility and be a part of this gospel family before time has run out. We are in a series called Entry and End Times, where we are walking through Matthew, chapter 21 through 25 together. And we are coming down to the end of that series. Our text today is coming from Matthew, chapter 24, verses 15 through 28. And I want to. I want to say this. Before we jump into this message, I want to say this. I want to make a disclaimer. Okay, today I'm going to read to you a lot of supporting passages around this text. I will probably do more reading than preaching. And today is going to feel like almost like a whole Bible study. And the reason I'm doing this today is because God said through a prophet named Hosea that his people perish for a lack of knowledge and my prayers that it would not be said of me in the judgment when I stand before my Savior that you was uninformed about those things that are coming. I want no blood on my hands. And so today, today is going to be a lot of reading and probably less preaching because I want you to be here, this word informed not from the opinions of men, but from the word of God. I don't want you to say you've never read or you've never seen what I'm about to show you in God's Word today. So today is going to feel different. And my prayer for you is that God would give you spiritual stamina to lean into His Word. The title of our message is going to be Signs of the End, Part two. And Father God, I pray as these babies are crying out in the room, we would cry out for the meat of the Word and the milk of the Word as they are crying out in this room. We pray. We would cry out for revelation and insight. I pray you would grant unto us all spiritual stamina to lean into your Word in its most simple and pure form. Help me in my weakness, to pray and to proclaim, but mostly to read to my brothers and sisters, the mighty and the majestic and the matchless, name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, and shout out to all the fathers in the room and all the fathers watching me right now, happy Father's Day to all of you. Yeah, happy Father's Day to all of you. Thank God for our Heavenly Father, our family. In. In 2004, the world watched with horrific horror as a massive 9.1 earthquake struck off the coast of Indonesia underwater. And what it did was trigger a mega tsunami with waves over a hundred feet high that is three times taller than this building. And that mega tsunami traveled across the ocean at rapid speeds and it struck 14 coastal countries in Asia. In the aftermath of that tsunami, the reports came out that almost a quarter of a million people lost their lives in that tsunami. And what remains right now in the 21st century, the most deadliest natural disaster of the 21st century. And what remains right now, one of the most deadliest natural disasters in the history of the world, where 200,000 people lost their lives. And in the subsequent reporting of that tsunami, it was said that thousands of lives could have been saved if they had better warning systems in place to let them know that that tsunami was coming in the same way. As I'm talking to you right now this morning, there is a mega tsunami of end time prophetic events that is racing towards humanity and that the only warnings we have against that mega tsunami of apocalyptic events that is speeding towards humanity is the prophetic warnings of the Word of God. It was this week while I was in New York with one of my staffers. He told me that he's been having dreams of end time apocalyptic events long before I got to this text in Matthew. He is among thousands of people all around the world. Hear me right now as I'm talking to you, who are having dreams of end time events and dreams of apocalyptic events. And they are posting about these events on social media from all around the world, I believe. Hear me. It is my personal opinion that God Almighty is doing everything he can in this hour to warn as many people as possible that a mega tsunami of end time apocalyptic events is coming for the United States, is coming for the nations of the world. He is warning people through proclamation. He is warning people through his word. He is warning people through his spirit. He is warning people through dreams and visions. And if there are any people on the planet that should be alert in this hour, that should be warning in this hour, that should be engaged in what's happening in this hour. If there's any people that should be the guardian of that message, if there are any people in the earth that should be paying attention to the times that we live in, it is the people of God and the saints of God and the Church of God. For if we are not paying attention, we will not warn. And if we are not warning, thousands of people will die in that mega tsunami and not have the opportunity to place their faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. This is the importance of the text that we approach today and the text that we approached last week. It is Christ in the final week of his life, having cleansed the temple and rode into the city of Jerusalem, declaring Himself to be the Messiah. It was Christ who defeated the corrupt spiritual leaders of Israel. And in a theological showdown that ended with them walking away, and it was Christ who walked out of that temple for the very last time, headed towards the cross for you and I. Matthew recorded this eschatological exchange between Christ and his disciples as he walked out that temple for the last time. I want to read to you that exchange for Matthew, chapter 24, verses 1 through 14. I read this to you last week. Jesus left the temple and was going away when his disciples came to point out to him the buildings of the temple. But he answered them and said, you see all these, do you not? Truly I say to you, there will not be left here one stone upon another that will not be thrown down. This was the prophecy of the Lord that the temple complex in Jerusalem will be destroyed, which happened some 40 years later in AD 70. Establishing himself as a credible prophet as he sat on the Mount of Olives, verse 3. The disciples came to him privately, saying, tell us, when will these things be? And when will be the coming of. Or when will be the sign of your coming and the end of the age? Verse 4. And Jesus answered them and said, now what he gives them next are the signs of the end times in the great tribulation period. He said, in the great tribulation period, toward the very end, which I believe we're right around the corner from that time frame. And Jesus answered him and said, see that no one leads you astray. For many will come in my name saying, I am the Christ and will lead many astray. And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars, and see that you are not alarmed for what must take place. For all these things must take place, but the end is not yet verse 7. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these things are but the beginning of birth pains. And then he tells us what happens in the middle of the tribulation period, after three and a half years. Then they will deliver you up to tribulation, and you will be put to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name's sake. And many will fall away and betray one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end will be saved. And at the very end of the tribulation period, at the end of that seven years, and this gospel of the kingdom will be Proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations. And then the end will come. Now, family, listen to me. What Christ just gave the disciples in private was his prophetic warnings about the tsunami of end time. Apocalyptic events that are charging towards humanity. Now pay attention. From verse 4 through 14, he gives us a summary of the end time events. That is all encapsulated in the Great Tribulation period which I taught you last week about the Great Tribulation period, a period of seven years instituted by a seven year peace treaty between the Antichrist and the nation of Israel for safety. It is during those seven years these things that I just read to you will be unleashed on the earth. Now, after the Lord reads, or after the Lord gives us this synopsis of the seven years of the Tribulation, what He then gives the disciples next watch. Is the singular event, hear me. That initiates or sets off or triggers the back half of that tribulation period. It is the second three and a half years of that tribulation period that is just around the corner of society in which God unleashes the full force of his wrath upon the earth to punish people for their rebellion and to get the attention of the nation of Israel. Now, what the Lord gave them is a full synopsis, hear me. But what he's about to give them next is the singular event. The singular event that happens in the middle of the tribulation period that triggers or initiates the full outpouring of God's wrath upon all humanity. No one alive during that day will escape. What we're about to read next is that singular event that happens at the three and a half year mark of the Tribulation. I want you to know it. I want you to understand it. You're gonna see it in society, you're gonna see it in culture. You'll see people talking about it on social media. And at 2019, you will not be ignorant, you will not be foolish at Starbucks. You will know how to handle yourself in a conversation. So first he tells them everything that's going to happen from the beginning to the end. But then he gives them a detailed synopsis of what happens in the middle. He says to them in verse 15, so that is in the middle when you see the abomination of desolation spoken of by the prophet Daniel standing in the holy place. Watch what he's let the reader understand. So the Lord says, in that time, I want the readers to understand. Matthew inserts this in the text. Let the reader understand, understand what the Lord wants The readers to understand the abomination of desolation spoken of by the prophet Daniel. If we're going to be knowledgeable, if we're going to be educated, if to. We're going. If we're going to understand what's going to happen in that time and how, we should pray for those that don't make it. We should understand the abomination of desolation. Spoken of by who? By the prophet Daniel. So we should go to the words of the prophet Daniel. In Daniel, chapter 9 and verse 24, he gives us the abomination of desolation. This is written thousands of years before Christ was even on the earth. Daniel chapter 9 and verse 24. 70 weeks are decreed about your people, the Jews and your holy city. Look, watch this. To finish the transgression, to put an end to sin and to atone for the iniquity, to bring in everlasting righteousness. Did you see that? So according to Daniel's prophecy, there will be 70 weeks. And at the end of those 70 weeks, watch God will bring an end to all sin. So at the end of 70 weeks, there will be the end of time as we know it. And then the Lord will usher in the eternal state. Therefore, if we want to know what's going to happen at the end or how much time we have left, we need to understand the prophecy of the 70 weeks. When the 70 weeks is complete, we have come to the end of humanity. Let me Repeat. When the 70 weeks are complete, we have come to the end of humanity. This is called the prophecy of Daniel 70 weeks, when the Lord will bring an end to sin and he will usher in everlasting righteousness. Watch to seal both the vision and the prophet, and to anoint a most holy place. Know, therefore and understand that from the going out of this word, that is the rebuilding of the temple, to restore and build Jerusalem, to the coming of an anointed one, who is the birth of Christ, a prince. There shall be how many weeks? Seven weeks. Then there shall be 62 weeks, and it shall be built again with squares and moat. But in a troubled time, talking about the rebuilding of the temple during the tribulation period, and after 62 weeks an anointed one shall be cut off. The Bible is astounding. He says after 62 weeks an anointed one shall be cut off. This is a prophecy that after 62 weeks Christ will be executed and shall have nothing. And the people of the prince, who shall come to destroy the city and the sanctuary, its end shall come with A flood. And to the end there shall be war. And desolations are decreed. And he, the Antichrist shall make a strong covenant with many. For how long? One week. And for half of the week. That's three and a half years. He shall put an end to the offerings, the back half of the tribulation. And on the wings of abominations shall come one who makes desolate until the decreed end is poured out. That is the full wrath of God on the desolator. Now let me explain this to you so you're not lost. Daniel prophesied. Watch. 70 weeks. At the end of 70 weeks, humanity will come to an end. God will put an end to sin. God will bring in the eternal state. At the end of 70 weeks, he said that there are seven weeks. Watch. Seven weeks the temple is rebuilt. Then another group of weeks, 62 weeks or 63 weeks, an anointed one will cut off. These weeks represent seven years. It each week is seven years. There is 49 years to the building of the temple. Another 400 plus years until the coming of Christ. And then there is a gap in the text between the coming of Christ and the final week. Daniel has no idea about that gap. He does not tell us what happens in that gap. All we know that Daniel sees in a vision, 69 weeks. And in the 69 weeks which represents years, the temple is rebuilt, Christ comes, Christ is crucified, and then the Antichrist comes. But he does not see what happens between the execution of Christ and the coming of the Antichrist. That week is missing. He never saw the gap in between that week. What was the gap that Daniel did not see in his prophecy? The gap that you and I are living in right now. Daniel never saw the church age. So he prophesies about 69 weeks. He sees a gap that he does not write about. And then the next week shows up in the end time tribulation. Seven years. And so the gap that Daniel does not see is the church age. That what the prophets did not see is that the anointed one would come. He would die, he would be executed. There will be this long gap in which we would come. We would proclaim the gospel, we would spread the name of Jesus. And then that last week, hear me, that is missing, is coming right behind the church age. That 70th week, which is seven years, will be the tribulation period when the Antichrist comes to power. Now what is the abomination of desolation? I want to show you from Paul's writings in Second Thessalonians chapter 2, verses 1 through 12. Now, what I'm about to read to you is Paul's prophetic writing of what's going to happen during the tribulation period. Now, during the tribulation period, according to Daniel, the Antichrist will come. Listen. He will make a seven year peace treaty with the nation of Israel to protect them. And in the middle of that peace treaty, he will break that treaty at the three and a half year mark. But look at how he breaks the treaty. This is the abomination of desolation. Now watch. Because some of this is being prepared right now. Now, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and being gathered together to him, we ask you brothers, not to be quickly shaken in mind or alarmed either by spirit or a spoken word, or a letter seeming to be from us to the effect that the day of the Lord has come. That is, don't be deceived. The day of the Lord has not come yet. Now look at what he says carefully. Listen. Let no one deceive you in any way. For the day will not come unless the rebellion comes first. That is the end. And the second coming of Christ will not happen until the Tribulation comes first and the man of lawlessness is revealed. Who is the Antichrist, the Son of destruction. Now here is the abomination of desolation. This is what he does. In the middle of the tribulation he comes. He signs the treaty. He says, I will protect Israel. They rebuild the temple. The Jews are doing sacrifices in the temple for the first three and a half years. Now watch. In the middle of the tribulation, this is what he does. Verse 4. This is all prophetic. Who opposes and exalts himself against every so called God or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, proclaiming himself to be God. And so what the Antichrist will do at the three and a half year mark of the Tribulation, he will go into the temple. He will stop the sacrifices. Watch. He will set up an idol of himself in the temple and he will declare himself to be God. Now pay attention. In the book of Revelation it says the idol that he sets up has the power to talk. Watch. It's going to make sense in a second. It says the idol that he sets up has the ability to speak. Speak. That whatever it is he sets up in the temple, although he himself is not physically there, this idol he sets up in the temple will be able to talk. And the scripture says in Revelation this talking idol will speak blasphemous things against the most high God. What could that be? I believe it can be nothing else except AI technology. It can't be nothing else but AI technology of some type of hologram. You see, the United States just paid over $400 billion for the investment of AI technology. God moving all the pieces around the world right now, preparing the whole world for the coming of the sun and the rise of the Antichrist. While we play in church and not paying attention to that, the global headlines are reading right out of the pages of the Word of God. I believe that this talking idol, Lord help your people be awakened in this hour. This talk, the revelation said, this talking idol revelation says whatever this is, it's going to be able to talk. And it will declare blasphemous words against God, against Watch. And the false prophet in that day would cause the whole world to worship that talking idol, which I believe will be an AI type hologram, blaspheming God and saying, watch that the Antichrist is God and they will cause the whole world to worship that hologram. Whatever it's gonna. Now watch, since you don't think you're important. Verse 5. Do you not remember that when I was still with you, I told you these things? And you know that it is the watch. It is restraining him now so that he may be revealed in his time. Watch. Watch. For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work. Only he. Watch the pronoun who now restrains it. The coming of the Antichrist will do so until he is out of the way. And then the lawless one will be revealed. Now why am I reading that to you? Paul says that the Antichrist can't come or won't come until he who restrains is out of the way. That means right now there is someone who Paul called a he. I'm just. I'm just trying to teach. There is someone in the earth who Paul called a he, male pronoun who is restraining the Antichrist from coming. And he says when that person is removed out of the way, then the Antichrist will appear on the scene. Right? He called this restraining force a he. And I believe that the he he is talking about is the work of the Holy Spirit in the Church, who Jesus also called a He. When he comes, he will. This is a text for the rapture of the Church that when he is taken away, when the Spirit at work in the church, which is our prayers and the power of the Holy Spirit, keeping back the full force of evil from overwhelming the earth, when the Church Is raptured out of the way. When the restrainer is taken out of the way, the church is gone. You know what happens next? The full force of evil comes into the earth. And now the church is going. Who's preaching the gospel? No one. Watch. That sets up the atmosphere. Oh, my God. Come on, man. Y' all don't want to be taught. That sets up the global atmosphere for a new deliverer. Do you really think a man could show up right now and claim to be Christ and we would believe him? No. But remove the church from the earth and now there's nobody preaching. And now those who was not prepared for the tsunami because they did not hear the gospel, they did not get saved. They enter into the tribulation. Your mother and your father, your cousins, your brothers, your aunts and your uncles, all those living right now, because I think this might happen in our generation who are far away from Christ, who are not caught up in the rapture. They don't go on that first load. They now enter that tribulation period that I believe is right around the corner. Now the church is gone. The restraining power of the Holy Spirit is gone. Now the Antichrist comes to power. Now watch. With the church out of the way, he can watch. Deceive the whole world. Verse 9. The coming of the lawless one is by activity of who? Satan, with all power and false signs and wonders. That is, he will perform signs and wonders that have come from the devil and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing because they have refused to love the truth. To be what? Saved. Because they're rejecting the gospel now. And they don't want to hear Bible preaching now. And they just want to be entertained now. And they don't want to be convicted now. And they don't want to be challenged now. And they want to go to Cotton Candy Ministries now. Because of all of that, they will not be saved. They will enter into the tribulation period if they're alive during that time. Therefore, God sends them a strong delusion so that they may believe what is false in order that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness. Sin will cost you. So he tells us right now. Watch. That is the abomination of desolation. That's what's going to happen. Let's go back to Matthew, chapter 24. Is this too heavy for you? And so listen, what I want to read to you now. During this tribulation period, when the Antichrist comes, there will be a tsunami of end time prophetic events. And I want to take a few minutes. Everybody look right at me, right? I don't have time to read them all, but I want to read to you what that tsunami is going to look like. This ain't something happening in the sky. This is what's going to happen in the earth for people who are not saved during the rapture. If the rapture happened next year. This is your family members and your friends who's going to endure this. I just want to read to you what's going to happen during that tribulation period. I just want you to see with your own eyes. I don't want anybody in this room to be mistaken about what's coming for all humanity. So John, the aged apostle, in the year A.D. 95 on the island of Patmos for the testimony of the preaching of the word of God, Jesus appears to him and says, write down everything I'm about to give you in Revelation, chapter one. This book that you're afraid of, right? Let me. Let me deliver you from false gospel because you got people out there making you afraid of Revelation. The devil is a lie. This was the first book I read when I was saved. Let me repeat, this is the first book I read while I was saved. You want to know where some of that fire comes from? Some of that fire comes from because I am aware of what's coming in the end. And some of you have no fire because you're not aware of what's coming in the end. You run from the book. The Lord said everybody should read Revelation, chapter 1, verse 1. The revelation of who. Jesus Christ, which God gave to him to show to his servants. Who is a servant if you're a servant. He gave you this book for who? For you. The things that watch must soon take place. He said this in the first century. We're in the 21st century. How much time you think we got left? These things must take place. He made it known by sending his angel to his servant John, who. Who bore witness to the word of God, to the testimony of Jesus Christ, even to all who he saw. Now watch verse three, since you're terrified of this book. Blessed. Now y' all not gonna be stupid at 2819. We're gonna be informed at 2819. He said, what's this word? What's the word? Blessed. Blessed. Blessed. Bless. Bless. Makarios in Greek. Fortunate. Fortunate. Fortunate is the one who reads, reads, reads, reads, reads aloud the words of this prophecy. Read the whole book. All you want to do is listen to Sermons read. All you want is podcast read. The more you read, the more on fire you will be. Blessed is the one who reads aloud, man. If you don't want to read, just put it on in the car while you're driving. Blessed is the one who reads or listens to the words of this prophecy. And blessed are those who what who hear, pay attention and who watch. Keep what is written in it, for the time is near. Now let me just read to you. Let me just show you some of the stuff that's going to happen during the tribulation period. The back half after the abomination of desolation. Bible study. I'm just going to read Revelation, chapter 2, verse 8. The things that's going to be poured out are pictured as trumpets, bowls and seals. The execution of the full wrath of God on humanity. After the desolation. After the abomination of desolation. Watch. And after the abomination of desolation, that temple is going to be left desecrated. The Jews will not be able to go in there. This man will set himself up as God. And as soon as he sets himself up as God, God sees that from heaven and he pours out his full wrath on all humanity. Look at some of the things that's going to happen, he says. When the Lamb opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven. That is get ready for about a half an hour. Then I saw seven angels who stand before God. And the seven trumpets was given to them. And another angel came and stood, stood on the altar with a golden censer. And he was given much incense to offer, which were the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar before the throne. Your prayers and mine. And the smoke of the incense with the prayers of the saints rose before God is why we should be praying now from the hand of the angel. Then the angel took the censer and filled it with fire from the altar and threw it in the earth. And there were peals of thunder, rumblings, flashes of lightning and an earthquake. Now pay attention. Now the seventh angel who had the seven trumpets prepared to blow them. The first angel blew his trumpet and there followed a hail and fire mixed with blood. And these were thrown upon the earth, that is a hailstorm of fire. And a third, one third of the earth was burned up. And a third of all the trees was burned up. That is a diminishing of oxygen. And all green grass was burned up. That is, everything is left brown. The second angel blew his trumpet at something like a great mountain. That's A meteorite burning with fire was thrown into the sea. And a third of the sea became blood. That is, a third of all the oceans was polluted. A third of all the living creatures in the sea died. That is no fishing trade. And a third of all the ships was destroyed. That his trade was destroyed. No goods coming into your nation. The third angel blew his trumpet and a great star fell from heaven, blazing like a torch. And it fell on a third of the rivers and on the springs. And look what it says. And of the water. The name of that star is Wormwood. And a third of the waters became wormwood. And many people died from the water because it had been made bitter. Dang, it's going to be bad. The fourth angel blew his trumpet. And the third the sun struck. And a third of the moon and a third of the stars, so that the third of their light might be darkened. That is going to be less sunlight. And a third of the day might be kept from shining. And like wise, a third of the night. Then I looked watch. And I heard an eagle crying with a loud voice. And it flew. Woe, woe, woe to those who dwell on the earth at the blast of other trumpets. And three other angels are about to blow. And the fifth angel, chapter nine, verse one, blew his trumpet. And I saw a star fall from heaven on the earth. And he was given the key to the shaft of the bottomless pit. He opened the shaft of the bottomless pit. And from the shaft rose smoke like the smoke of a groan great furnace. And the sun and the air were darkened with the smoke from the shaft. Then from the smoke came locusts on the earth. And they were given power like the power of scorpions. And they were told not to harm the grass of the earth, or any green plant that remained, or any tree. But only those people who do not have the seal of God in their foreheads. And they were allowed to torment them, torment all human beings for five months, months. But not to kill them. And their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it stings someone. Watch. And in those days people will seek death. Your family members are going to be there if they don't get saved now. If the rapture happens 10 years from now, they'll be there. People will seek for death and they will not find it. They will long to die of. But death will flee from them. Look at Revelation, chapter 3, verse 9. Revelation, chapter 3. No, Revelation, chapter 9. I'm sorry. Revelation, chapter 9, verse 13. Then the sixth angel blew his trumpet. I'm just speeding through and heard a voice of the four horns of the golden altar before God, saying to the sixth angel who had a trumpet, release the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates. Right now in the Middle east, there's a river named Euphrates, and under that river are four demons waiting to be released. Four angels waiting to be released. Watch so that the four angels who have been prepared for the hour and the day and the month and the year were released to kill a third of all mankind. That is, billions of people are going to be killed by those four beasts. Look at Revelation, chapter 16, the last one I'm going to show you. Verse one. Then I heard a loud voice from the temple telling the seven angels, go and pour out on the earth the seven bowls of wrath of God. So that the first angel went and poured out his bowl on the earth, and harmful, painful sores came upon the people who bore the mark of the beast and worship its image. The second angel poured out his bowl into the sea, and it became like blood of a corpse, and every living thing died as it was in the sea. And the third angel poured out his bowl into the rivers and the springs of the water, and they became like blood. And I heard the angel in charge of the water say, just are you, O Holy One, for who is and who was and who brought these judgments? For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and you have given them blood to drink. It is what they deserve. And I heard the altar saying, yes, the Lord God Almighty, true just are your judgment. Verse 8. The fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun, and it was allowed to scorch people with fire, that is no shade, no clouds, no atmosphere. They scorched by fierce heat, and they cursed the name of God and had power of these plagues, and they did not repent, and they did not give him glory. The fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne and the beast and his kingdom, and plunged it into darkness. People gnawed their tongue in anguish for pain and cursed God of Heaven for their pain and for their sores, and they did not repent for their deeds. The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and the water was dried up. I just want you to notice that the Euphrates river is drying up right now, since you don't pay attention and since we don't read. And his water was completely dried up to prepare the way for the kings of the east, that it was dry up. And a 200 million man army made of Russia and Arab nations are going to come from the east towards Israel. And I saw coming out of the mouth of the dragon and of the mouth of the beast and of the mouth of the false prophet. The beast is the antichrist. Three unclean spirits like frogs, for they are demonic spirits performing signs who go abroad to the kings of the world to assemble them for the battle on the great day of God Almighty. Behold, I am coming like a thunder thief, says Jesus. Blessed is the one who stays. How awake, Stop sleeping, Stop being apathetic, Stop being lethargic, Stop being indifferent, keeping his garments wear on. Have a prayer life. Read the Bible, stay in community, speak with authority, post like you know what's about to happen, that he may not watch, be about naked and be exposed. And they assembled at the place in Hebrew which is called Armageddon. Now all these things are going to happen during the tribulation period. The final battle of humanity will be this 200 million man army that will come against Israel. At that time the Lord will appear. He will defeat this army. They all will die. The Bible says the blood would rise to the bridle of the horse. And then the Lord will establish his thousand year millennial reign. Now because of this, you know what's going to happen? Because of this is going to be happening during this time, people are going to be running and people are going to be scared and they're going to be vulnerable and they're going to be searching for a Messiah. They're going to want help. They're going to be desperate. They're going to be seeing wars all over the news. They're going to be on their phone, they're going to be dealing with this devastation, begging for death, not finding death. And they will be hiding and looking for help. They're going to be looking for a Messiah. And it's at that time, while they're looking for a Messiah. Matthew chapter 24. And watch how he closes this section, verse 24. This is what's going to happen. So all of that is happening. And because the Lord knows that all of that is happening and people are vulnerable and scared and searching for a Savior. He says during that time in verse 24 he says, look what he says. Oh, verse 15 he says, when you see all these things, the desolation, and then he says verse 16, then let those who are in Judea, when you see all these things happening, flee to the mountains. That is when these things start happening. You know what the Lord said? Get out of Israel, run. Let the one who is on the housetop, not go down to take what is in his house. That is when these things happen. Don't even go in your house. Jump off the top of your house and run. Let the one who is in the field not turn back to get his cloak. Wherever you're working, don't go back to even pack a suitcase. Run. And alas for women who are pregnant, for those who are nursing and infants in those days that he said the time is going to be so bad. It's going to be a terrible time to have children. He says, man, I feel sorry for those who will be pregnant or those who have children, for they will kill children during those days. They will kill pregnant mothers during those days and pray that your flight will not be in the winter or on the Sabbath prayer that you will not be hindered by weather or hindered by legalistic doctrine, for then there will be a great tribulation. That's what I just read to you. Such has not been from the beginning of the world until now. It will be the worst time in the history of humanity and no shall it ever will be. And if those days had not been cut short, no human beings would survive or be saved. If it wasn't cut down to three and a half years and everybody would die. But for the sake of the elect, those days will be cut short. That God in his love for the Jews and those who become saved in that day would chop it down to three and a half years so that everybody will not die. Then if anyone comes to you and says, look, here is the Christ, there he is, do not believe it. For false Christs and false prophets will arise and do great signs and wonders. Why? Because people are going to be looking for a Savior if it is possible to deceive even the very elect. See, watch. I have told you all of this beforehand. This is very important that the only people who's going to be deceived is people who did not have knowledge of God's Word. That's why it's very important. If you don't want to be deceived now, you should have knowledge of God's Word. That's why I'm reading to you all these scriptures. So you will have knowledge of God's Word. And the more knowledge knowledge of God's Word you have, the less likely you will be deceived. The Lord said, I have told all of humanity all of this beforehand. So now if Philip Anthony Mitchell dies or I get raptured and you don't make it because you were Playing church. You will not say that I did not warn you. I read to you on this day all these things that is coming. So you will not be uninformed about what is coming in the very near future. The Lord says, see, I have told you all these things. When? Beforehand. Now let's finish. So if they say to you, look, he is in the wilderness, Christ has come, do not go out there. Don't come out of hiding. If they say to you, look, he is in the inner rooms, do not believe it. For as the lightning comes from the east, I'm done. And shines as far as the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man, the final sign of the great tribulation period. Wherever the corpse is, there the vultures will gather. So Jesus said that when you see all these things happening, you know the end is near. And in that time, because people are vulnerable and searching for a savior, they're going to say, look, Christ is in the wilderness. Let's go see Him. Christ is in this part of Israel. Let's go see Him. Christ is over there. And Christ is over there. And Christ is over there. And he says to the people alive in that time, don't believe the false prophets. Don't go out there. Why? Because Christ in His second coming would not come from among us. He will come from above us. That the final sign of the Tribulation period will be the sign that appears in the sky. It will come like lightning which cannot be hidden. That the Tribulation will come to an end with lightning in the sky. And a thunderous and glorious and dreadful event called the Second Coming of Christ. He will return with the armies of heaven behind him, his eyes like a blazing fire, the armies riding on white horses behind him. He will return with the saints who was raptured. We will be at the marriage supper of the Lamb. Jewish weddings lasted for seven days. The Tribulation period lasts for seven years. That we will be raptured with God before the Tribulation. We will be with him during the Tribulation. He will burst the sky and he will return with the armies of the saints behind Him. Tatted on his thigh is the Word, King of kings and Lord of lords. And he will ride out of heaven with all of us behind him, our robes dipped in blood, with crowns on our head from our labors and our rewards. And he will ride out of heaven into the earth. He will destroy those who have rejected him and set up his millennial kingdom. And we will reign with Christ for a thousand years before that eternal state. And how should we respond to this right now? For the believer, with joy, knowing that a day is coming. We will be raptured and be with our Savior. We will be with him for the marriage, supper of the lamb. We will receive our crowns for our labor. We will come back with him to rule in the earth. And how should this affect us Even deeper? We should be praying even right now for everybody we know who are watch not saved. We should be doing everything we can when right now to push out this gospel as far as we can. For these things are right around the corner. I believe the winds of the end times are blowing in society. Nations are aligning. As I'm talking to you, Israel is at war with the Islamic nation. As I'm talking to you right now, AI is being invested in. As I'm talking to you right now, God is preparing the world for the rapture, the tribulation and the second coming of his Son. And because we know this, it should affect how you live, how you pray, how you sacrifice, how you grind, how you post, how you conduct yourself. We not stupid. We not uninformed. And because I know the end is why I don't want to waste time right now. And my prayer for you is because you know the end. You will not waste time right now. How do you see all of that? And it don't touch your prayer. It doesn't touch a witness. It doesn't touch a proclamation. We don't have all this time. Time is running out. And if anybody should be awakened in this hour, it should be the saints of God. So that is my prayer over you. This is my prayer over you. That the Lord I pray would awaken every son and daughter. He will let you feel the winds of the end time blowing. I pray it would affect your prayer life. I pray it would affect you in private. I pray it would affect how you live. I pray it would affect how you post. I pray you will have a hunger for the word. I pray you will have a hunger for his spirit. I pray you will have increased discernment. I pray you will be grieved in your heart for the loss. I pray you would care about the spread of the gospel and that you would give everything that God has given you. Your mouth, your talents, your abilities, your resources. We would work together for the spread of the gospel. I pray you will be awakened. You will be burned. You will be stirred. Your eyes, God will see. And I pray for the one who was not saved that you would surrender to the Lord Jesus Christ. You would ask him to forgive you for your sins. You would grow yourself at the foot foot of the cross and you will come to know the saving grace of our Savior before time has run out. Father, I pray an anointing for service and warfare would fall upon 2819 Church and all of our digital disciples across the nation and around the world. Awaken the church in the west, awaken the church globally. As time is running out, I pray revival come upon our land in America and revival come upon the lands of the other nations of the world. I pray this right now in the mighty and the majestic and the matchless name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Man, put your hands together if you receive. Come on, put your hands together if you receive. Now everybody listen to me. Stand still. Listen to me. I'm going to keep saying this until it gets tattooed to your heart. I'm telling y' all, I feel this every time I kneel to pray. Time is running out on us. This is the hour to get right with Christ. This is the hour to be serious about your walk. This is the hour to read and be informed. This is the hour to not be led astray. This is the hour to stay in the church. This is the hour to be connected, to love, to have a community and accountability. This is the hour to be informed. And this is the hour to take your walk serious. Do you hear me? Two great opportunities to do that. First, everyone who was saved, who has given your life to Christ in this church, who has given your life to Christ and have never followed him in disorders, the Lord said, be saved. Follow me through the waters of baptism. Symbolically putting to death all of your past. And this August, for two days straight, we will have our baptism weekend this August. A powerful life transforming initiative that happens in our church once a year. Once. This is your opportunity this year to be baptized. To be radically transformed in your heart. To come out of that watery grave, put to death symbolically your past, and run forward into everything that Jesus has for you. You don't need a six month class for that. You don't need to sign a paper for that. The scripture says saved, baptized, forward. That's it. Romans 6. You are symbolically buried with Christ. You're symbolically raised with Christ. You run forward into a brand new life. You will never be the same after this day. Registration opens tonight. We only have slots for 400 people for day one, 400 people for day two. Get baptized. Now hear me and I'm serious about this next one. The Lord said, if my people who Are called by my name, would humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways. Watch this. Words I will hear from heaven. I would heal cancer and I will heal your land. You know where revival comes? It comes off the wind of gospel preaching and powerful prayers. And this year, I'm calling all of our local disciples and all of our digital disciples to one historic event that the city has never seen before. Access in State Farm arena, one historic day of prayer and worship unto God. No celebrities, no gimmicks, no stunts. I believe that God is going to rally the 2819 family from across the nation and around the world, 18,000 of us plus that it is possible for God to fill an arena for a people to do nothing else but pray. It will be historic. It will be remembered in the annals of history where people came together from around the nation and around the world and took over an arena not for entertainment, not for a show or concert, but to do nothing else except call on the Savior in these end times. October 2025. A million dollar initiative. I said that we set aside a million dollars to do nothing else. I believe in it that much. I believe in it that much. I believe in the power of prayer that much. I said I believe in the power of prayer that much. I said I believe in the power of prayer that much. Thank you to every person who gives to this ministry faithfully, who help us to make things like this possible. Man, be faithful in your giving. Man. In our merch store, we have brand new summer merch. Our clothing ain't just a logo. It's the proclamation of the gospel on your chest and on your legs. Man. Buy that merch. Wear it, share it. Make the commission known. Everywhere we go in this merch, people stop us in airports. We have gospel conversations everywhere we travel, man, get all that merch. Wear it everywhere in the streets. Wear it, share it. Make the commission known. We got shorts, T shirts, all that good stuff, man. Caden, a teenager in our church was in Amsterdam, had on a 2819 sweater. A whole gospel conversation in Amsterdam, man. We're going to spread this gospel through preaching, through song, through prayer, through clothing. Anything we can do to get the gospel forward. Father, bless your church. Bless those who are faithful givers. Bless those rocking 2819 merch. Bless us as we prepare to cry out, Father. Lord, in this hour, I bless my people in the mighty and the majestic and the matchless. Name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Put your hands together. Give God praise.
