Caption transcript for The Dark Prince: “The Experts Speak,” Part 1 (9/10)

• 00:37 HOW YOU HAVE FALLEN FROM HEAVEN LUCIFER, SON OF THE MORNING,
• 00:41 YOU SHALL BE BROUGHT DOWN TO HELL TO THE DEPTHS OF THE PIT
• 00:45 AND ALL WHO GAZE UPON YOU WILL WONDER,
• 00:49 "IS THIS THE MAN THAT MADE THE NATIONS TREMBLE?"
• 00:58 WHEN THE DEVIL HAS HIS DAY
• 01:04 A HEARTY SHALOM TO ALL OF YOU.
• 01:05 JEFFREY SEIF HERE PLEASED TO WELCOME YOU TO ZOLA LEVITT PRESENTS
• 01:10 WHERE WE'RE PRESENTING A SERIES ON "THE DARK PRINCE"
• 01:14 SUBTITLED "WHEN THE DEVIL HAS HIS DAY".
• 01:17 ONE DAY NOT LONG AGO THE TEAM WENT TO A PROPHECY CONFERENCE
• 01:21 TO HEAR FROM NOTE WORTHIES IN THE FIELD.
• 01:24 AND IN THIS PROGRAM YOU'RE GOING TO HEAR FROM SOME.
• 01:27 DR. PAUL WILKINSON WE'LL BE OUR FIRST GUEST,
• 01:30 LATER ON MY GOOD FRIEND PAUL WILBUR WILL JOIN US.
• 01:33 BUT OFF WE GO NOW TO PAUL WILKINSON.
• 01:38 I'M A MINISTER AT HAZEL GROVE FULL GOSPEL CHURCH
• 01:41 WHICH IS IN MANCHESTER IN THE NORTH OF ENGLAND.
• 01:44 WE'RE A VERY SMALL FELLOWSHIP
• 01:46 BUT WE LOVE THE LORD,
• 01:48 WE'RE LOOKING FOR HIS APPEARING
• 01:49 AND WE HAVE A HEART, WE BELIEVE THE LORD'S HEART, FOR HIS PEOPLE ISRAEL.
• 01:53 AND SO THE LORD HAS BEEN PLEASED TO USE US IN MANY DIFFERENT WAYS
• 01:57 TO PROCLAIM THE GOSPEL TO THE JEWISH PEOPLE,
• 01:59 TO GO OVER TO ISRAEL AND STAND WITH THE FOLK IN YAD VASHEM AND TO....
• 02:05 YAD VASHEM BEING THE MEMORIAL TO THE HOLOCAUST.
• 02:07 THE MEMORIAL AND MARTYRS REMEMBRANCE AUTHORITY THERE IN JERUSALEM, YES.
• 02:12 NOW MY UNDERSTANDING IS YOU'RE QUITE THE ACTIVIST IN ADDITION TO ALL THAT,
• 02:16 THAT YOU WERE IN EUROPE RECENTLY VISITING THE TRAIL OF DEATH
• 02:21 WITH THE HOLOCAUST, THESE CONCENTRATION CAMPS AND THE LIKE.
• 02:25 WHAT WERE YOU DOING THERE?
• 02:27 I WAS PART OF A CHRISTIAN STUDY TOUR
• 02:30 AND IT WAS 12 DAYS GOING AROUND POLAND
• 02:34 LOOKING AT THE OLD JEWISH COMMUNITIES,
• 02:36 THE OLD SHTETLS (Jewish Villages), THE SYNAGOGUES, WHERE THE JEWISH LIVED
• 02:38 LOOKING AT WHAT LIFE IS LIKE FOR THE JEWISH PEOPLE OF EUROPE BEFORE THE HOLOCAUST.
• 02:41 BUT OF COURSE YOU CAN'T GO ON A TOUR LIKE THAT
• 02:44 WITHOUT VISITING THE DEATH CAMPS,
• 02:46 SEEING WHAT HAPPENED TO THESE PEOPLE WHO HAD REAL LIVES,
• 02:50 FAMILIES WHO LIVED AND CONTRIBUTED SO MUCH TO SOCIETY
• 02:54 AND SEEING HOW AN EVIL DICTATOR COULD RISE UP SO QUICKLY
• 02:58 AND WIPE OUT BETWEEN 6 AND 8 MILLION JEWISH PEOPLE.
• 03:03 AND AS A CHRISTIAN IT'S NOT ENOUGH JUST TO PROCLAIM A MESSAGE, TO PROCLAIM WORDS,
• 03:08 WE NEED TO IDENTIFY WITH THE GOD OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE WHO SAW ALL THIS SUFFERING.
• 03:13 WHAT DID HE FEEL?
• 03:14 HOW DID HE THINK?
• 03:16 AND HOW DOES ALL THIS SUFFERING FIT IN WITH WHAT WE READ ABOUT IN SCRIPTURE?
• 03:20 SO AS A CHRISTIAN AND THE CHURCH I REPRESENT
• 03:21 WE'RE TRYING TO NOT JUST PROCLAIM A MESSAGE
• 03:25 BUT HEAR SOMETHING OF GOD'S HEART,
• 03:27 FEEL SOMETHING OF GOD'S HEART
• 03:29 SO THAT WE HAVE SOMETHING MORE OF A SOLIDARITY WITH THE JEWISH PEOPLE TODAY.
• 03:33 LET ME ASK YOU A QUESTION AS YOU TALK ABOUT
• 03:35 AN EVIL PERSON JUST ARISING OUT OF NOWHERE,
• 03:37 CERTAINLY WE KNOW YOU'RE REFERENCING HITLER IN DAYS GONE PAST
• 03:41 BUT IN DAYS FUTURE THAT HITLER COULD MAKE HIS ENTRANCE
• 03:44 ONTO THE STAGE OF THE HUMAN DRAMA OUT OF NOWHERE WITH INTELLIGENT PEOPLE,
• 03:47 DO YOU SEE AN EMERGENT, WICKED PERSON AS WELL RISING UP IN YOUR EUROPE
• 03:52 AND GALVANIZING VARIOUS EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES TOGETHER
• 03:55 AND ENDEAVORING TO REEK HAVOC ON THE JEWS AFRESH.
• 03:58 YES VERY MUCH SO.
• 03:59 I THINK SCRIPTURE IS CLEAR.
• 04:00 WE CAN GO TO DANIEL, CHAPTER 9,
• 04:02 WHICH TALKS ABOUT THIS ANTI-CHRIST FIGURE,
• 04:04 THIS FALSE MESSIAH THAT WOULD RISE UP
• 04:05 AND MAKE A COVENANT WITH MANY, EVEN WITH THE JEWISH PEOPLE
• 04:08 AND BRING A FALSE PEACE TO THE WORLD.
• 04:11 AND THE WORLD IS LOOKING FOR PEACE,
• 04:12 LOOKING FOR A LEADER WHO'S GOING TO SAY,
• 04:15 "I HAVE THE ANSWERS, FOLLOW ME".
• 04:17 AND PEOPLE LIKE HITLER, YOU CAN GO BACK TO BIBLICAL TIMES,
• 04:20 HAMAN WHO TRIED TO DESTROY THE JEWISH PEOPLE OF THE PERSIAN EMPIRE,
• 04:24 OR ADOLPH HITLER,
• 04:26 TODAY MAHMOUD AHMADINEJAD IS SAYING ALL THE SAME THINGS AND HE'S GETTING AWAY WITH IT,
• 04:31 HE'S SAYING THAT ISRAEL NEEDS TO BE WIPED OFF THE MAP.
• 04:33 THESE MEN, THEY'RE JUST MEN, BUT THEY GIVE US AN INDICATION
• 04:39 OF WHAT THE ANTI-CHRIST WILL BE LIKE THAT WE READ ABOUT
• 04:43 ESPECIALLY IN THE NEW TESTAMENT
• 04:45 THAT THE APOSTLE PAUL SAID WOULD COME AND SEEK TO ESTABLISH HIMSELF AS GOD
• 04:50 IN THE VERY TEMPLE OF GOD IN GOD'S SANCTUARY THERE IN JERUSALEM.
• 04:54 AND ALL THE SIGNS ARE POINTING FOR THIS GREAT LEADER
• 04:58 WHO WILL OVERSHADOW THE HITLERS AND THE AHMADINEJADS.
• 05:02 THE SCENE IS BEING SET FOR THIS GREAT LEADER TO COME.
• 05:06 AND IT'S A SCARY THOUGHT TO THINK THAT SOMEONE AS NEFARIOUS AS HITLER...
• 05:09 THIS IS JUST A PORTENT OF WORSE THINGS TO COME.
• 05:12 BUT IT'S FELLOWS LIKE YOU...
• 05:15 AND THAT'S WHY WE SO MUCH APPRECIATE YOUR MINISTRY
• 05:18 AND I KNOW THAT OUR VIEWERS WILL AS WELL
• 05:21 BECAUSE WE'RE OF THE SAME HEART, THE SAME ILK,
• 05:24 THAT IS TO SAY WE WANT TO STAND UP FOR JESUS,
• 05:26 STAND UP FOR THE GOSPEL, STAND UP FOR A LOVE FOR THE JEWISH PEOPLE.
• 05:28 FINAL WORD ON THAT REGARD PLEASE,
• 05:30 ANYTHING YOU WANT TO WEIGH IN ON?
• 05:31 I THINK THIS IS ONE OF THE MESSAGES
• 05:33 THAT WE NEED TO PROCLAIM TO THE JEWISH PEOPLE
• 05:35 WHO ARE DESPERATELY LONGING FOR PEACE
• 05:38 AND THEY WILL DO ANYTHING TO HAVE THAT PEACE
• 05:40 BECAUSE OF THE SUFFERING THAT THEY'VE ENDURED.
• 05:42 THAT THERE IS A FALSE MESSIAH,
• 05:44 THE JEWISH PEOPLE HAVE WELCOMED FALSE MESSIAHS THROUGHOUT HISTORY
• 05:48 AND THERE IS A FALSE MESSIAH WHO WILL COME WITH ALL THEIR ANSWERS SO IT SEEMS.
• 05:52 AND THE LORD JESUS WARNED ABOUT HIM,
• 05:55 THE APOSTLES WARNED ABOUT HIM
• 05:56 AND THE CHURCH, CHRISTIANS WHO KNOW THE BIBLE,
• 05:59 WHO TRULY LOVE THE JEWISH PEOPLE
• 06:01 NEED TO BE PROCLAIMING THIS MESSAGE...
• 06:03 ANTI-CHRIST IS COMING AND HE'S COMING TO DECEIVE,
• 06:05 HE'S COMING WITH A FALSE PEACE.
• 06:07 ALL THE STAGE IS BEING SET
• 06:09 BUT THE LORD JESUS, THE TRUE MESSIAH OF ISRAEL
• 06:12 IS TO RETURN AND HE WILL DESTROY THE ANTI-CHRIST
• 06:16 JUST WITH THE BREATH OF HIS COMING
• 06:17 AND HE WILL DELIVER HIS PEOPLE ISRAEL.
• 06:19 THE PEOPLE OF ISRAEL SHOULD NO LONGER LOOK TO THE UNITED STATES,
• 06:23 THE UNITED NATIONS, TO GREAT BRITAIN,
• 06:25 THEY NEED TO BE LOOKING TO THEIR GOD AND TO THEIR MESSIAH, JESUS
• 06:28 FOR HE IS THEIR ONLY HOPE.
• 06:35 I'VE READ DR. HOUSES' BOOKS BEFORE AND AS A PROFESSOR HAVE COMMENDED THEM TO OTHERS.
• 06:41 THIS GUY IS A REAL CONTRIBUTOR TO THE FIELD
• 06:44 AND IN THIS PROGRAM I'M PLEASED TO COMMEND HIM TO YOU.
• 06:48 HE'S GOING TO CONTRIBUTE TO YOUR UNDERSTANDING OF THE ANTI-CHRIST.
• 06:51 IT'S NOT AN EASY SUBJECT BUT YOU KNOW WHAT?...
• 06:54 I THINK DR. HOUSE IS JUST THE GUY TO COME INTO YOUR HOUSE NOW
• 06:58 AND HELP YOU UNDERSTAND ABOUT THE ANTI-CHRIST AT THE RAGGED EDGE OF HUMAN HISTORY.
• 07:06 WE'RE INTERESTED IN BIBLE PROPHECY PARTICULARLY
• 07:08 TELESCOPING INTO THE FUTURE IS A DANGEROUS BUSINESS
• 07:11 BUT WHAT ARE SOME OF THE ESSENTIAL TEXTS FOR PEOPLE
• 07:14 THAT ARE TRYING TO SNOOP AROUND
• 07:15 AND UNDERSTAND AN EMERGENT, NEFARIOUS PERSON
• 07:18 AT THE EDGE OF HUMAN HISTORY AND THE END OF DAYS,
• 07:21 THE ANTI-CHRIST.
• 07:22 WHERE DO WE LOOK AND HOW SHALL WE THINK?
• 07:23 WELL THE IDEA OF ANTI-CHRIST
• 07:25 OBVIOUSLY HAS BEEN WITH US A LONG TIME.
• 07:27 IT GOES BACK AT LEAST AS FAR AS TEXT SPECIFICALLY STATING THINGS
• 07:32 WE CAN GO BACK TO THE BOOK OF DANIEL.
• 07:34 DANIEL TALKS ABOUT A COMING PRINCE
• 07:36 AND THAT'S USUALLY WHERE WE'RE THINKING ABOUT THE TEXT.
• 07:39 DANIEL SPEAKS ABOUT THAT A PRINCE
• 07:43 WOULD COME WHO WOULD CAUSE THE SACRIFICE AND THE HOLY PLACE TO BE SET ASIDE
• 07:48 AND WE SEE THAT IN DANIEL AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN
• 07:54 WE FIND JESUS TALKING ABOUT THE SAME THING IN MATTHEW CHAPTER 24.
• 07:57 AND HE SPECIFICALLY MENTIONS AS HE DOES IN MARK AND MATTHEW
• 08:00 THAT YOU HAVE DANIEL SPEAKING OF THIS
• 08:04 SO WE KNOW THAT JESUS IS CONNECTING WITH HAVING READ THE BOOK OF DANIEL.
• 08:07 AND SO THE ANTI-CHRIST THEME IS THROUGHOUT CHURCH HISTORY.
• 08:14 YOU FIND THE EARLY FATHERS CONTINUALLY TALKING ABOUT THE COMING ANTI-CHRIST.
• 08:18 IT EVEN GOES THROUGH THE MEDIEVAL PERIOD INTO THE TIME OF THE REFORMATION
• 08:21 WITH PEOPLE LIKE LUTHER THINKING HE HAD IDENTIFIED SOMEBODY
• 08:24 AND HE SAW THE END OF THE WORLD COMING
• 08:27 WITH THE TURKS AND OTHERS COMING INTO THE NATIONS AND SO FORTH.
• 08:31 SO THIS THEME IS VERY IMPORTANT
• 08:33 BUT THE ACTUAL BIBLICAL BASIS OF IT
• 08:35 GOES BACK INTO THE BOOK OF DANIEL AND IN THE OLIVET DISCOURSE.
• 08:38 YOU CAN ALSO MENTION THE FACT THAT PAUL THE APOSTLE
• 08:41 RELYING APPARENTLY ON THE OLIVET DISCOURSE IN II THESSALONIANS
• 08:46 HE'S ALSO A MAN OF SIN WHO WILL COME AND WHO WILL...
• 08:50 WHO'S CONNECTED DIRECTLY WITH THE IDEA OF THE COMING OF CHRIST
• 08:55 AND THEN WE KNOW IN THE BOOK OF REVELATION THAT BUILDS ON THAT IDEA
• 09:00 AS REVELATION STARTS ABOUT THE END TIMES FROM CHAPTER 4 TO THE END OF THE BOOK.
• 09:04 SO THE THEME OF ANTI-CHRIST MAKES A LOT OF SENSE
• 09:09 BECAUSE YOU HAVE JESUS REFERRING TO IT
• 09:11 BUT THEN YOU HAVE SOMETHING INTERESTING
• 09:13 IN THAT JOHN SAYS THAT ANTI-CHRIST IS COMING ALSO
• 09:17 BUT THERE ARE MANY ANTI-CHRISTS.
• 09:18 NOW WE KNOW BY THAT THAT YOU CAN HAVE A FINAL ANTI-CHRIST
• 09:22 WHO IS PRECEDED BY MANY WHO BEAR SIMILAR MARKS TO ANTI-CHRIST
• 09:28 AND THAT'S WHY I THINK HISTORICALLY WE'VE HAD A LOT OF PEOPLE
• 09:32 TRY TO IDENTIFY DIFFERENT PEOPLE AS THE ANTI-CHRIST
• 09:34 IS BECAUSE THERE IN FACT ANTI-CHRISTS,
• 09:38 THOSE THAT LOOK LIKE HIM. RIGHT
• 09:40 BUT THE FINAL STATEMENT OF ANTI-CHRIST
• 09:43 IS THE ONE THAT REVELATION TALKS ABOUT.

• 11:46 WAS FILMED SOME TIME AGO
• 11:47 ABOUT THE RISING ENCROACHMENT
• 11:50 OF ANTI-SEMITISM IN ISRAEL.
• 11:52 SEE HOW THIS FITS INTO PROPHECY.
• 11:54 AND SPEAKING ABOUT PROPHECY
• 11:56 OUR GOOD FRIEND DR. TOM MCCALL COMES NEXT.
• 12:00 I KNOW YOU'RE GOING LOVE HIM.
• 12:03 WELL IT'S GREAT TO BE WITH YOU
• 12:05 AND I KNOW YOU ARE A FRIEND TO THOSE
• 12:07 WHO HAVE FOLLOWED OUR MINISTRY THROUGH THE YEARS
• 12:09 AND WE HAVE PLENTY,
• 12:11 ALL OF WHOM ARE THRILLED TO SEE YOUR FACE AND HEAR YOUR VOICE.
• 12:13 AND IT'S GREAT TO BE WITH YOU JEFF,
• 12:15 YOU'VE BEEN DOING A TREMENDOUS JOB HERE WITH THE MINISTRY AND WE APPRECIATE THAT.
• 12:19 WELL THANKS.
• 12:20 I HAVE MY DETECTIVE MAGNIFYING GLASS
• 12:22 SNOOPING AROUND EUROPE AND THE SCRIPTURES TO UNDERSTAND
• 12:26 TELESCOPING INTO THE FUTURE A LITTLE BIT TO WHERE WE'RE GOING.
• 12:31 AND I HAVE AN EYE TO SEE WHAT I CAN LEARN ABOUT THE ANTI-CHRIST.
• 12:34 ANYTHING PARTICULARLY SIGNIFICANT WHEN YOU THINK OF ANTI-CHRIST, EUROPE, BIBLE PROPHECY,
• 12:40 I MEAN, WHAT HITS YOU WHEN YOU HEAR THAT?
• 12:42 HE'S A BAD GUY.
• 12:43 AND APPARENTLY WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO IDENTIFY HIM
• 12:49 UNTIL AFTER THE RAPTURE
• 12:52 AND THEN THEY'LL BE IN THE BALCONY SO TO SPEAK.
• 12:55 BUT WE KNOW WHAT KIND OF A PERSONALITY HE IS.
• 12:59 THERE'S AN INTERESTING VIEW POINT THAT I THINK IS PRETTY NEW
• 13:04 BUT MAYBE IT SHOULDN'T BE,
• 13:08 AND THAT IS THAT SATAN DOESN'T KNOW
• 13:12 WHEN THE RAPTURE IS GOING TO OCCUR ANYMORE THAN WE DO.
• 13:16 HE'S NOT OMNISCIENT.
• 13:18 SO HE KNOWS IT'S COMING...
• 13:21 I THINK HE KNOWS IT'S COMING.
• 13:23 BUT THAT MEANS THAT WHENEVER THE RAPTURE OCCURS
• 13:27 HE'S GOT TO HAVE HIS MAN READY TO STEP IN PLACE
• 13:29 AND THAT MEANS THAT IN EVERY GENERATION
• 13:34 HE'S HAD TO HAVE SOMEBODY READY TO STEP INTO THAT ROLE.
• 13:40 WHERE THERE'S QUESTIONS ABOUT THE PERSON
• 13:42 AND THOSE REFLECTIONS ARE HELPFUL.
• 13:44 LET'S TALK ABOUT THE PLACE, THE HEADQUARTERS, THE CENTER,
• 13:47 OR AT LEAST WHAT PEOPLE MIGHT WANT TO THINK IN TERMS OF IN THAT REGARD.
• 13:51 EUROPE, EUROPEAN UNION, USSR...
• 13:55 HOW DO YOU WEIGH IN ON THAT?
• 13:57 WELL WE'VE ALWAYS FELT THAT THE EUROPEAN UNION
• 14:02 WAS SORT OF A NUCLEUS OF THE WORLD RULE FOR THE ANTI-CHRIST.
• 14:09 AND THERE'S SOME SUGGESTIONS FOR INSTANCE IN REVELATION CHAPTER 17
• 14:15 ABOUT THE HARLOT, THE ANTI-CHRIST...
• 14:17 OR THE HARLOT THAT WOULD BE THE FALSE RELIGION, I SHOULD SAY
• 14:23 DURING THE EARLY STAGES OF THE RULE OF THE ANTI-CHRIST.
• 14:28 AND THAT IS PICTURED ON THE CITY OF THE SEVEN HILLS.
• 14:32 NOW THERE'S ONLY ONE CITY IN THE WORLD I KNOW OF
• 14:35 THAT HAS THAT DESCRIPTION AND THAT'S ROME.
• 14:38 SO WE'VE LONG FELT THAT THE WORLD WIDE RELIGION THAT COMES TO POWER WITH THE ANTI-CHRIST
• 14:47 AND PROBABLY IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE ANTI-CHRIST WOULD BE ROME,
• 14:51 POLITICALLY AND RELIGIOUSLY.
• 14:53 THERE IS THE STATEMENT IN ISAIAH THAT THE ANTI-CHRIST...
• 14:58 AT LEAST IT HAS BEEN ATTRIBUTED TO THE ANTI-CHRIST...
• 15:02 IS THE ASSYRIAN.
• 15:04 NOW THIS GIVES HIM A MIDDLE EASTERN FLAVOR.
• 15:08 AND PERHAPS HIS BACKGROUND IS IN IRAQ
• 15:15 WHERE ASSYRIA WAS HEADQUARTERED IN NINEVEH, WHERE MOSUL IS TODAY.
• 15:19 BUT IF SO IT SEEMS LIKE HE REALLY COMES TO POWER
• 15:24 WITH A BASIS OF THE EUROPEAN CONTEXT OF THE ANCIENT ROMAN EMPIRE.
• 15:30 HOW THAT ALL WORKS OUT WE MAY NOT UNDERSTAND FULLY.
• 15:37 PAUL WILBUR WILL BE COMING UP SOON AND YOU'RE GONNA WANT TO HEAR HIM AND WHY IS THAT?
• 15:41 BECAUSE YOU'RE GONNA HEAR DR. CHUCK MISSLER FIRST.
• 15:44 I ASKED HIM WHAT HE THOUGHT ABOUT THE CURRENT STATE OF AFFAIRS IN THE MIDDLE EAST
• 15:48 AND HE WEIGHED IN STRONG.
• 15:50 OFF TO DR. MISSLER WE GO.
• 15:54 WELL IT'S A CALDRON.
• 15:56 IT'S GOING TO OBVIOUSLY BOIL OVER
• 15:57 AND THE PROBLEM THERE ISN'T JUST THE MIDDLE EAST
• 15:59 BECAUSE YOU'VE GOT BETWEEN ISRAEL AND IRAN,
• 16:02 YOU'VE GOT THAT ISSUE AND YOU GOT PUTIN WITH HIS AGENDA
• 16:05 AND THE MORE YOU KNOW ABOUT THE POLITICS AMONG THE MIDDLE EASTERN COUNTRIES
• 16:10 THE MORE UNSTABLE THAT IS FOR MANY, MANY REASONS.
• 16:12 BUT THE OTHER THING HERE IN AMERICA,
• 16:15 YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND SOMETHING ABOUT MY BACKGROUND
• 16:19 TO QUALIFY WHAT I'M ABOUT TO SAY.
• 16:21 I'M NOT AN AMERICAN BASHER.
• 16:22 I GREW UP FIRST GENERATION AMERICAN.
• 16:24 WHEN OTHER GUYS IN COLLEGE WERE...
• 16:27 WELL ANYWAY IN COLLEGE I WAS PASSING IN REVIEW ON WORDEN FIELD IN THE NAVAL ACADEMY
• 16:33 FOR WHOEVER WAS VISITING WASHINGTON THAT WEEK.
• 16:35 THAT GETS IN YOUR BLOOD.
• 16:36 I GRADUATED WITH HONORS,
• 16:38 HAD AN AIR FORCE CAREER,
• 16:39 THEN I WAS IN THE THINK TANK WORLD FOR THE INTELLIGENCE...
• 16:42 I SPENT 30 YEARS IN THE STRATEGIC ARENA.
• 16:43 I WAS CHAIRMAN AND CEO OF...
• 16:46 WELL I SERVED ON 12 PUBLIC BOARDS...
• 16:49 I WAS CHAIRMAN AND CEO OF 6 OF THOSE.
• 16:52 FOUR OF THOSE WERE PUBLICLY TRADED DEFENSE CONTRACTORS.
• 16:54 SO YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND
• 16:56 THE DEFENSE OF THIS COUNTRY HAS BEEN IN MY BLOOD.
• 16:59 THE THING THAT I'VE COME TO TERMS WITH IN RECENT YEARS
• 17:04 IS THE AMERICA I GREW UP IN...
• 17:06 THE 50'S, 60'S AND SO ON IS OVER, IT'S A MYTH.
• 17:10 AND I THINK THE PROBLEMS WE'RE FACING AS A COUNTRY...
• 17:14 AND I'LL JUST SPEAK ECONOMICALLY,
• 17:16 SET ASIDE THE POLITICS AND SO ON...
• 17:18 THE ECONOMICS THAT WE'RE FACING
• 17:20 I THINK MOST PEOPLE HAVE NOT IDEA HOW DEEP THE HOLE IS
• 17:23 THAT WE'VE DUG FOR OURSELVES
• 17:25 AND I DON'T MEAN JUST THE REAL ESTATE BUBBLE,
• 17:28 I DON'T MEAN JUST THE CREDIT CRUNCH THAT'S GOING ON RIGHT NOW...
• 17:29 WHEN YOU START ADDING THE DERIVATIVES ON TOP OF THAT
• 17:33 YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT 600 TRILLION DOLLARS TO DIG OUT OF.
• 17:39 THOSE ARE NUMBERS THAT ARE SO LARGE THAT THEY'RE...
• 17:42 IT DOESN'T MATTER WHO'S IN THE WHITE HOUSE,
• 17:45 THE PROBLEMS ARE FAR DEEPER.
• 17:47 AND SO THE REAL POINT IS,
• 17:48 IS I THINK THE AVERAGE PERSON IN AMERICA
• 17:51 HAS NO GRASP OF THE KIND OF WORLD WE'LL BE MOVING IN TO.
• 17:56 OUR ABILITY TO BE RELEVANT ON THE WORLD HORIZON
• 18:00 IN YEARS 2, 3, 4, 5 DOWN STREAM FROM WHERE WE ARE TODAY ARE VERY CLOUDY.
• 18:05 AND I THINK AS WE MOVE INTO THE CLIMACTIC YEARS FORTHCOMING
• 18:10 THAT AMERICA'S ROLE IS GOING TO BE VERY, VERY DIMINISHED
• 18:14 COMPARED TO WHAT WE PRESUME.
• 18:16 CAUSE EVERYBODY IN OUR COUNTRY FEELS
• 18:17 THAT WE'RE THE RICHEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD.
• 18:19 THAT'S NONSENSE.
• 18:20 WE'RE THE LARGEST DEBTOR IN THE WORLD
• 18:21 AND THE TREASURY HAS TO FIND 4 BILLION DOLLARS PER DAY
• 18:27 FOR SOMEONE TO LEND US TO KEEP THE SHIP AFLOAT.
• 18:31 SO THE REALITIES OF WHERE WE ARE ECONOMICALLY HAVEN'T SUNK IN.
• 18:35 EVEN TO THE PROFESSIONALS ON WALL STREET IN LARGE MEASURE.
• 18:37 AND THERE'S PANIC IN MANY CORPORATE BOARD ROOMS FOR THAT VERY REASON.
• 18:41 EVENTUALLY WE HAVE TO PAY THE PIPER.
• 18:43 YES AND OUR GRAND CHILDREN ARE IN JEOPARDY FROM THAT POINT OF VIEW.
• 18:46 SO IT'S A SERIOUS PROBLEM.
• 18:47 SO OUT OF ALL OF THIS OUR ROLL IN THE DYNAMICS OF THE COMING YEARS
• 18:52 IS VERY, VERY DIFFERENT THEN MOST AMERICANS HAVE ANY CAPACITY TO IMAGINE.
• 18:56 BUT IT'S NOT BEYOND THE PALE OF REASON OR IMAGINATION
• 19:00 TO THINK THAT SOMEONE COMES TO THE FLOOR
• 19:03 WHO OFFERS SOLUTIONS TO VEXING PROBLEMS ECONOMIC AND OTHERWISE.
• 19:07 HENCE THAT THROWS US BACK AGAIN TO THE WORLD BEYOND US
• 19:12 BASED ON THE ASSUMPTION THAT
• 19:14 THE BELIEVERS ARE SPIRITED AWAY AT CHRIST'S COMING.
• 19:17 BUT THERE'S A WORLD THAT'S LEFT BEHIND
• 19:19 AND SOMEONE'S GOING TO RISE TO THE FLOOR GIVING ANSWERS TO THESE QUESTIONS.
• 19:23 I KNOW AND THERE'S A LEADERSHIP VACUUM
• 19:24 THAT'S GOING TO BE FILLED BY SOMEBODY WITH A PLAN,
• 19:27 SOMEONE THAT HAS A PROGRAM.
• 19:32 (Jeff speaking) A MOMENT NOW TO REFLECT ON GOD'S GOODNESS
• 19:34 AS WE JOIN PAUL WILBUR IN WORSHIP OF OUR REDEEMER.

• 22:32 HOWEVER YOU GET YOUR INFORMATION IN...
• 22:34 BUT THAT ALWAYS HAS TO BE FILTERED THROUGH
• 22:38 THERE'S A TRUTH IN THE WORLD
• 22:39 AND THERE'S A TRUTH THESE ARE THE DAYS OF ELIJAH...
• 22:42 FAMINE, DARKNESS AND SWORD.
• 22:44 AND THERE ARE DIFFICULT TIMES COMING TO BE SURE.
• 22:47 BUT ALL OF THAT HAS TO FILTERED THROUGH THE TRUTH...
• 22:50 THE TRUTH... CAPITAL "T"...
• 22:53 OF WHAT GOD HAS TOLD US AND THE ONE WHO IS THE COMING KING
• 22:57 WHO HAS ALREADY PUT ALL OF THIS UNDER HIS FEET,
• 23:00 KNOWS THE FUTURE, OUR TIMES ARE IN HIS HANDS,
• 23:04 HE HOLDS OUR MOMENTS THERE.
• 23:07 AND THAT'S WHERE WE NEED TO LIVE IN THIS POWER OF PRAISE
• 23:11 AS WE CONTINUE...
• 23:12 AND THE PSALMIST SAID, "OPEN WIDE YOUR MOUTH AND I WILL FILL IT".
• 23:15 IF WE CONTINUE TO REHEARSE THE BAD NEWS
• 23:19 THEN THAT'S WHERE OUR HEARTS ARE GOING TO GO
• 23:22 BUT IF WE WILL ALLOW GOD TO FILL OUR MOUTHS WITH THE GOOD NEWS,
• 23:26 THAT IS ALSO WHERE OUR HEARTS WILL GO...
• 23:28 THE HOPE FOR THE FUTURE WITH "THE" GOD WHO IS OUR HOPE.
• 23:32 BOY THAT IS SOME PROFOUND STUFF FROM YOU PAUL.
• 23:34 YOU GO GUY!
• 23:35 SO IF I UNDERSTAND YOU CORRECTLY,
• 23:38 YEAH THERE'S TROUBLES IN THE WORLD
• 23:40 BUT WE NEED TO SUIT UP WITH THE ARMOR OF FAITH...
• 23:42 DEAL WITH THE PREVAILING TROUBLES.
• 23:44 ABSOLUTELY, WE CAN READ THE PROPHETS...
• 23:46 BUT ALWAYS GO TO THE LAST PAGE...
• 23:48 REMIND YOURSELF THERE IS A HEAVEN TO GAIN,
• 23:51 THERE IS A LAMB WHO SITS ON THE THRONE...
• 23:54 WE'VE BEEN FORGIVEN,
• 23:55 HE IS A COMING, CONQUERING KING
• 23:58 AND WE BELONG TO HIM.
• 23:59 NOW THERE YOU GO
• 24:00 AND THERE'S SOME GOOD NEWS FROM YOU.
• 24:02 AND THE LATE ZOLA LEVITT WEIGHS IN ON THE GOOD WORLD TO COME
• 24:07 AGAINST THE BACKDROP OF THE TURBULENCE OF TRYING TIMES.
• 24:12 AND NOW OFF WE GO TO THE LATE ZOLA LEVITT.
• 24:16 NOW THIS AMAZING PERIOD...
• 24:18 AND IT'S THE ONE OF COURSE AFTER THE KINGDOM, THE LAST PERIOD...
• 24:22 COULD BE COMPARED TO OUR WORLD.
• 24:26 SOME THEOLOGIANS HAVE CALLED OUR WORLD THE "PROBATIONARY WORLD"
• 24:29 AND THE COMING WORLD THE "ETERNAL WORLD"
• 24:32 AND THEY ARE QUITE DIFFERENT.
• 24:34 IN THE PROBATIONARY WORLD THERE'S A DIVISION OF LIGHT AND DARKNESS,
• 24:38 DAY AND NIGHT AS WE KNOW THEM,
• 24:39 BUT IN THE ETERNAL WORLD THERE'LL BE NO NIGHT.
• 24:42 WE'RE GOING TO COVER THESE THINGS FROM THE SCRIPTURES.
• 24:45 THERE'S A DIVISION OF LAND AT SEA IN OUR WORLD THAT NO MORE SEE IN THE ETERNAL WORLD.
• 24:49 WE ARE UNDER THE RULE OF THE SUN AND THE MOON SO TO SPEAK AS WE LIVE OUR LIVES
• 24:55 BUT THERE'LL BE NO NEED OF THE SUN OR THE MOON IN ETERNITY.
• 24:58 MAN BEGAN IN A PREPARED GARDEN IN THE PROBATIONARY WORLD
• 25:03 AND HE'LL BE IN A PREPARED CITY, "THE NEW JERUSALEM", IN THE COMING WORLD.
• 25:07 A RIVER FLOWED OUT OF THE GARDEN OF EDEN IN THE OLD WORLD
• 25:12 AND A RIVER WILL FLOW FROM GOD'S THRONE IN ETERNITY.
• 25:16 THE THINGS I'M SAYING ABOUT ETERNITY ARE RIGHT OUT OF THE SCRIPTURES.
• 25:18 THERE WAS A TREE OF LIFE IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN IF YOU REMEMBER
• 25:22 AND THERE'LL BE A TREE OF LIFE THROUGHOUT THE CITY IN ETERNITY.
• 25:27 THE FIRST HEAVENS AND EARTH WERE FINISHED IN GENESIS CHAPTER 2,
• 25:32 NEW HEAVENS AND EARTH FOREVER IN REVELATION CHAPTER 21,
• 25:36 AND FINALLY MAN HIMSELF MADE IN GOD'S IMAGE IN THE PROBATIONARY WORLD
• 25:42 AND IN GOD'S PRESENCE IN THE ETERNAL WORLD.
• 25:48 ISN'T THAT SO TRUE...
• 25:49 A MAN IN GOD'S PRESENCE.
• 25:52 WE ARE CAUGHT BETWEEN THAT TENSION OF THE WORLD THAT WE LIVE IN
• 25:56 AND THE WORLD THAT IS TO COME.
• 25:59 THIS IS WHERE WE LIVE OUR LIVES JEFF
• 26:01 WHERE WE...ALL THE DAILY STUFF IS HAPPENING.
• 26:04 I HOPE THAT THROUGH THIS SERIES
• 26:06 PEOPLE ARE LEARNING A LITTLE MORE ABOUT THAT WORLD TO COME
• 26:08 AND THE WORLD THAT IS NOW.
• 26:10 AND HOW WE BRIDGE THAT.
• 26:12 YOU KNOW JESUS HAS CALLED US...
• 26:15 WE ARE HIS BROTHERS AND HIS SISTERS
• 26:18 AND WE PARTAKE OF THAT ANOINTING.
• 26:21 HE SAID IN JOHN CHAPTER 17,
• 26:22 "FATHER I HAVE GIVEN THEM THE ANOINTING".
• 26:25 ISN'T THAT AN AMAZING STATEMENT?
• 26:26 SPEAKING OF US HE SAYS
• 26:29 "I'VE GIVEN THEM THE ANOINTING THAT YOU GAVE ME"
• 26:31 SO THAT WE COULD LIVE IN THIS WORLD AS HE WALKED.
• 26:35 CORRECT AND SPEAKING OF ANOINTING,
• 26:38 NEXT WEEK THE ANOINTED JOEL ROSENBERG AND DR. TIM LAHAYE WILL BE OUR GUESTS.
• 26:49 JOIN US
• 26:50 AND THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR WATCHING ZOLA LEVITT PRESENTS.
• 26:55 AND AS YOU GO NOW,
• 26:56 SHA'ALU SHALOM YERUSHALAYIM
• 26:59 PRAY FOR THE PEACE OF JERUSALEM
