“… and they will in the future reign forever and ever.” This speaks of our ETERNITY THEN. Rule begins in the Millennial Kingdom and will continue forever and ever in the new heaven and earth. It is a trustworthy statement, if we died with Him, we will also in the future live with Him; if we now endure, we will also in the future choose to reign with Him. Faithful and true defines Yahweh and every word He has breathed. God who directs the spirit of the prophets sent His angel to show to His bondservants the things which now must soon choose to take place. Through revealing His thoughts, intentions, plans, desires, and action, Jesus wants His bride to fall ever more in love with him and be thoroughly convinced that He is worth waiting for, worth betting their lives upon.Download Transcript

And there will in the future choose to no longer be any night; and they do not now have need of the light of a lamp nor the light of the sun, for the Lord God will in the future illumine them; and they will in the future reign forever and ever.Now there is no need of the light of religion, f human wisdom, or any foreign flame, for Jesus is the light and He illumines our way. The bondservants of Jesus Christ are now children of light and have become Christ's lights in this dark world. They have been illumined and will be illumined. In our Eternity Then, there will be no darkness, nothing that is not illumined by Jesus' light.Download Transcript

The leaves from the tree of life are therapeutic to those permitted to enter the city, and they provide a protection, a shade from the heat of judgment. The leaves will not fade, and the tree will always produce its fruit through the bondservants of Jesus.In eternity then, there will be no super-accursed thing permitted for the bondservants of Jesus will always be a safe gathering place. Even the throne of God will be in their midst to adjudicate and rule in the new heaven and earth.His bondservants will by choice be employed in His service. They will see His face and His name will be on their foreheads, as a sign of relational blessing.Download Transcript

The Spirit of God imaged as the river of life that flowsfrom the throne of God, divides Jew from Gentile and is the living water to both communities. God preserves the unique relationship He has with His people. This is like the imagery of the wild and the natural olive trees as well as the 2 witnesses. God maintains 2 witnesses to the world, one uniquely Jewish andone uniquely Gentile. The tree of life, imagery for Jesus, expresses itself and grows for both communities. The twelve fruits is a picture of His remarkable spiritual administration in both groups. Its yield is cyclical and predicable, always yielding its fruit and its leaves are always green and provide shade from the heat and are for therapy to the nations.Download Transcript

John saw a river of the water of life, clear as crystal, choosing to now be coming from the throne of God and of the Lamb, in the middle of the wide-open place. It is radiant with no impurities. The river is a metaphor for the Holy Spirit who is absorbed and amplified through His people, flowing out from within our New Creation, the Sanctuary of God. Flowing from the throne speaks of the Unity of the Godhead.Faith is how the living water is permitted to flow in and through a person. But when fear supplants their faith, they have forsaken God, the fountain of living waters, to hew for themselves cisterns, broken cisterns that can hold no water.Download Transcript

“… and there no, not ever, shall enter anyone unclean andalso anyone now doing what is detestable or false …” Knowing God is experienced though the way Yahweh Mekoddishkem works with Yahweh Qanna to set a person apart exclusively for His purposes. Then the person is called holy and is no longer unclean.“Detestable” comes from a root word that means to stink, to be detestable, abhorrent, and disgusting, but it is best understood as a synonym for idolatry—an object of disgust.Those who are now doing what is false are those who “now profess to know God, but by their deeds they choose to now deny Him, now being detestable and disobedient and worthless for any good deed.” They ignore that the Source Matters the Source is Everything!Those deemed to be righteous may enter the city. Fellowship and belonging are reserved for those righteous ones. The purpose of it all is to gather into eternity the nations, including the Elect from amongst the Jews, as God honors and lifts up His bride and fills her with glory.Download Transcript

The city is for the people of the nations, so they might have access and illumination. The light of God, through the people of God, brings illumination to those whom He has been calling out of darkness and into His marvelous light.The kings of the earth now bring their glory into it—the people for which they rule. There will no longer be any sadness, mourning, and depression. And the gates of the city no, not ever, shall be caused to be shut by day. Jesus is the light of day and as long as He shines in this world, the gates will not be closed. There are prohibitions on entry: anyone unclean andalso anyone now doing what is detestable or false. But if your name is in the book, God has a plan of mercy and grace for your life. He will find you.Download Transcript

There is now no sanctuary in the city indicating that true Christianity contains no form or exterior presence of religion, no buildings, vestments, holy articles or implements, no religious practices, duties, disciplines, and formalities, and nothing that is deemed by man to be sacrosanct. Rather, Jesus is our sanctuary, our center of worship. We should always be found to now be worshippingin the holy place.There is no sun or moon, and the city has no need of either.The monotheistic religions which claim to bring light are nil, for the glory of God did lighten it, and the lamp thereof, the Lamb. Like the command to flee Babylon, weneed to flee religion.Download Transcript

This is a picture used to communicate a message. For instance, the people of God will NOT be walking on literal streets of gold. The city is an image, a picture, of the people of God (the wife of Christ) and not a destination. The wall of jasper is emblematic of sacrifice (bloody sacrifice). The city pure gold speaks of the divinity of the wife of Christ, as they will be like Him and share in His substance. Clear as glass speaks of the absence of impurity.The Foundations speak of honor and glory of the Apostles' faith upon which the city rests. The gates being pearls speaks of the gentile believers though which all must enter. The street, or wide-open space, speaks of a large gathering place for all who want to know Jesus, and its transparency speaks of the lack of imperfection in the true bondservants of Jesus Christ.Download Transcript

The Measurements is a powerful statement of ownership. The golden reed is a symbol of those through whom the Spirit flows to bring illumination to the nations. This is a divine tool, symbolized by gold. The measurement of the city speaks of the perfect fullness which occurs as the bondservants of Christ are joined in unity with the entirety of the Godhead. The wife of Christ will be perfect, full, complete, stable, and fully imbued with the fullness of the Godhead.The measurement of the walls depicts the completeness of Jews and Gentiles. Combined, the city, its gates and its walls provide us with a picture of all those who even now arefound to be believing and overcoming. This structure speaks of community, fellowship, and connectedness (the city), exclusivity but also access (the gates), and safety, stability, and security (its walls).Download Transcript

The light that now shines from the bondservants of Jesus Christ is priceless and captivating, as the glory of the Lord is amplified through them and its brightness shatters thedarkness.The image of the high wall of the city, with angelic protectors, communicates a place of safety, security, and stability, a protected place where no one can break in. The city is a refuge for the Righteous and the Elect as they must pass through this city to experience Jesus.There are 3 gates on each wall bearing the names of the tribes of Israel, twelve in all, and the foundation stones have the names of the twelve apostles upon them. Our lives of faith were built upon theirs.Download Transcript

John's attention is directed to all those who were willing to let God help them choose to be Called and Chosen and Faithful: the bride, the wife of the Lamb. Like the Lamb of God, the children of God are called to a life that is destined for sacrifice and death – those ongoing afflictions that are experienced by His body, the true church. It is a form of deep intimate fellowship.John is carried to Mount Zion to get a view of the bride who is imaged as the New Jerusalem, the holy city, that is now coming down out of heaven from God. Those who have been raised up with Christ, whose citizenship is now in heaven, have been sent forth in to this world as ambassadors of the Kingdom of God. They have been sent from the heavenly Jerusalem, to represent Christ's kingdom in our physical realm.Download Transcript

The “unbelieving” refers to those in the household of God who do not choose to exercise saving faith, those who do not love the truth. They do not bet their lives on the truth that Jesus isYahweh Adonai, the Lord our God Almighty and they do not bet their lives on His name. The unbelieving love and worship the Jesus that fits their idea of who God must be.All the Liars refers to those who have tasted of the Spiritof God, they have seen God work, but in their words and their deeds, they choose to deny His name and they do not confess the truth about Him.The cowardly, unbelieving and those caused to being abominable and murderers andimmoral and sorcerers and idolaters and all the liars, their part will be in the lake that God is even now causing to be burning with fire and brimstone, which now is theSecond Death.Download Transcript

The cowardly and unbelieving and those caused to being abominable and murderers and immoral and sorcerers and idolaters and all the liars, the part theirs in the lake that is now caused to be burning with fire and brimstone, which now is the second death. Murderers slay with intent. The immoral refers to those involved in the procurement, trafficking, and sale of sexual slaves. Sorcerers refer to drug dealers and drug traffickers. Idolators refers to those who worship anything other than Yahweh. The abominable stink in the nostrils of God, they are the hypocrites who act as if they know God but do not.   The cowardly refers to those who live in dread over what might be instead of resting in Jesus who is in control of all things all the time. The antidote is to come to know Jesus as one's Yahweh Shalom, Yahweh who is their peace. Remembering God's goal, to make us into His son, helps us understand why He does what He does to us, and why He lets us suffer and be traumatized. It is how He destroys our slavery to religion so we might walk in peace. Download Transcript

Jesus promises that He will in the future, give to the one who is now thirsting from the spring of the water of life without cost.” We must now be thirsting; we must now have a craving for the water of life (the Spirit of God). We must come to the source, to Jesus who is the source. This water will become within us a well of water now springing up to eternal life. In the future drinking this water will be without cost (in Eternity), but for now it costs us everything to drink. We have got to die to live, we must be willing to let God put to death everything within us that does not want Him to be our Adonai. We must count the cost. Jesus is a conquering king, and He wants to defeat all enemies within our soul. Then drinking from this water is free, for we will have been set free from our enemies, and there is no impedance to our drinking. So, drink and keep drinking. Download Transcript

Jesus said, "They have been done. I now am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. In short, everything is playing out exactly as He has decreed. The story has been written and recorded in His books. Jesus has ordered all things, and all things have been set into motion and are completed by His hands, “for from Him and through Him and to Him are ALL things,” without exception. Everything comes from Him and exists by His power and all things are summed up in Christ. He initiates all things, He completes and brings all His plans to fruition, and no one or nothing can stand in His way or thwart His will. Jesus also said, “I will, in the future, give to the one who is now thirsting from the spring of the water of life without cost. He who is now overcoming will in the future inherit these things, and in the future, I will choose to be his God, and he will in the future choose to be My son.” Download Transcript

Jesus' blood was spilled so that the covenant of law can be satisfied in all of us; Christ is the end of the law for all who are now believing. He gave us a new commandment, to love with His agape love (which means He who is agape must love through us). The Spirit gives His people new tongues, a language spoken in the spiritual realms. He creates a new heaven and earth with a new Jerusalem which even now comes down out of heaven from God. He calls His loved ones by a new name which the mouth of Yahweh shall designate. And His compassions and mercy are new every morning. These words are faithful and true given by the giver of hope. Download Transcript

The former things (the covenant of law) have passed away,” and in the future there will be no more tears, death, mourning, crying, and pain—a picture of ETERNITY THEN. He will reach into our soul and anoint the source of our wounds with oil relieving the pain and healing our traumas. Death will choose to be no more. The reason for mourning, crying, and pain will be removed, for this angel's job will have been completed.   And He who chooses to now be sitting on the throne said, "Behold, I now make all things new." He gives us new wine, or a new spirit that He pours out within us. He gives us new wineskins, or the New Creation, in which the Spirit of God dwells within our being. And He gives us a renewed mind that we may now prove out that good, acceptable, and perfect will of God. Renewal and Healing is Yahweh's plan for our lives both in our ETERNITY NOW and our ETERNITY THEN Download Transcript

“… and the sea is now no more.” The sea represents the restless churnings and tumult caused by the chaos of humanity. God has stilled the waters. In Him, we can know His rest and live in His peace. Though believing we can enter His rest when we surrender to the fact that Jesus is Yahweh Adonai, the absolute Lord and our Prince of Peace. The New Jerusalem now coming down out of heaven is a picture of the wife of Christ, the Called and Chosen and Faithful who have been prepared and adorned as a bride for her groom. Why a city? It is a picture that communicates community, connectedness, safety, refuge, and provision. Other names include "The City of God's Delight" and "The Bride of God;" Those who comprise this city will be called "The Holy People" and "The People Redeemed by Yahweh." Yahweh will tabernacle with His people. Download Transcript

At the end of the 1,000-year period, heaven and the earth will be wiped out of existence, destroyed by intense fire and heat; in its place, Jesus creates a new heaven and earth, which will be a place of happiness and joy for all humanity. In this new creation will be a glorious city, the New Jerusalem (which is how He images the Bride of Christ, as a city, a place of refuge and a safe haven for the Righteous and the Elect where they can experience the presence of God in-and-through the Bride of Christ. Download Transcript

The books were opened, revealing all the days of the lives of those standing before the Great White Throne Judgment Seat. To get into heaven, your name must be written in the Book of Life. The records are kept so that the eternity which a person chooses is unabashedly recorded and the judgment they face will be proportional to their deeds. The last enemy, death and hades (angelic beings) will be cast into the Lake of Fire, which burns with burning sulfur, along with anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life. Then another book was caused to be opened, which is the book of life. They enter their eternal paradise reserved for the Elect and the Righteous, those who are not born again, but based on how they treated the Called and Chosen and Faithful bride of Christ, were deemed to be worthy of entering eternity in the presence of God. Download Transcript

The Great White Throne Judgment. Jesus is the judge, and every knee will bow, and tongue confess that He is Yahweh. Earth and heaven are obliterated before Him as all things in heaven and earth were shaken so that which is permanent may remain. Death and Hades and the sea will surrender all those in their control. Nothing will be hidden in this judgment; all will be revealed. Standing before the throne were the dead, great and small, and books were caused to be opened. Download Transcript

The dragon was seized and locked in the Abyss for 1,000 years, Satan is then released, and the devil deceives those nations, Gog and Magog, those with communistic influences, at the four corners of the earth, to gather them for battle, their number is like the sand of the sea. These nations hold to a humanistic ideology emphasizing human agencies operating in a collective rather than divine intervention and authority. Their target is Mount Zion in Jerusalem, where Jesus set up His throne and where the holy one's camp. “… but fire came down from heaven and consumed them.” Then the devil is thrown into the Lake of Fire joining the Beast and the False Prophet where they will be tormented day and night forever and ever, to the ages of the ages.

In the events unleashed with the seventh bowl of wrath Yahweh altered the fundamental construct of the world's eco-system. Mountains were crushed, islands disappeared, cities were split, and huge hailstones pummeled the earth. The Sun will no longer provide its light as Jesus will be the light. Life will be extended, and the earth will be fruitful. This will be an amazing time of peace, rest, safety, and security. Yahweh will dell, on Mount Zion and He shall judge between the nations and shall decide disputes for many peoples. The land of Judah will be Yahweh's special possession. Edom will be destroyed, but for Egypt there will be grace. For 1,000-years, Jesus will reign as king over the entire earth and there will be no other. The Bride of Christ will rule with Him over the nations. Prophetically, this is the fulfillment of the Feast of Tabernacles, AKA, the Feast of Shelters. Download Transcript

Blessed and set apart he who is now having a part in the resurrection the first; over these the second death now has no power, but they choose in the future to be priests of God and of Christ and in the future, they reign with Him for a thousand years. This speaks of the rapture. “The resurrection the first” speaks of what occurs first in time with nothing else coming before it in time or in a series. There are no partial resurrections, just the resurrection the first. The second resurrection is of the dead. It occurs immediately before they are judged at the Great White Throne Judgment. When Jesus returns, He gathers the people of the earth and the sheep (the righteous) enter his kingdom, the goats (the evil ones) will be summarily dispatched and killed in judgment.   Download Transcript

The Called Chosen and Faithful will sit on thrones in judgment, and over them the second death (which is the Lake of Fire) has no power. They will be priests of God and Christ. They lived and reigned with Christ for 1,000 years. And John saw the souls of those afflicted because of their testimony in Christ and the word of God. As with the church of Smyrna, this affliction produces beauty and releases a sweet fragrance to those who are dead and dying. They did not worship the beast, his image, nor receive his mark, because they are the Bondservants of Jesus Christ. Download Transcript

From wherever the Satan had been hiding, he has now been found and captured. The dragon gave up his power, throne and great authority to the Beast and the Beast has been thrown into the Lake of Fire, leaving Satan vulnerable without his entourage of protection who ran interference for him. Satan is sealed in the Abyss for 1,000 years, so he will not deceive the nations when Christ rules upon this earth. There will be a reprieve on the earth from fear, doubt, lies, hate, accusation, deception, slander, manipulation, and evil which Lucifer has inflicted upon humanity. The thousand years is the fulfillment of a prophetic mystery in the book of Hosea. He will revive us after two days; He will raise us up on the third day, that we may live before Him. Download Transcript

The aftermath of war. Upon Jesus' return, The Beast was seized, disposed of instantly, and with him the False Prophet. All it took was a word.  They are thrown alive into the lake of fire which is now burning with brimstone. This fire was originally prepared for the devil and his angels. The rest of those who came against Jesus were caused to be killed with the sword proceeding from Jesus' mouth. This includes the armies of the nations, and the spiritual armies of the Kings of the Earth. All the birds were caused to be filled with their flesh, that of angels and humanity. Download Transcript

The War. The Kings of the Earth will drive their armies against Jerusalem (at Yahweh's bequest), but then it gets crazy and bloody. It's a time of doom for the nations. Yahweh will punish the world by fire and by his sword. He will judge the earth, and many will be killed by him. “My decision is to gather nations, to assemble kingdoms, to pour out upon them my indignation, all my burning anger; for in the fire of my jealousy all the earth shall be consumed. I will set about to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem”. Their flesh will rot while they are still standing on their feet, their eyes will rot in their sockets, and their tongues will rot in their mouths Their slain will be thrown out, and their corpses will give off their stench, and the mountains will be drenched with their blood. Download Transcript

And on His robe and on His thigh, He now has a name caused to having been written, "KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS. This is an emblem which speaks of ultimate power and authority. When acts, all will come under obedience and subjection to Him. The spirits in midheaven are called in preparation for the great slaughter of humanity and the demonic as demons will feast on the flesh of slain demons and birds will feast on the flesh of men. This will be an act of grace purging the world for the reign of Christ on the earth. The Beast and the Kings of the Earth and their armies assemble for war at the Mount of Gathering (Jerusalem). They made a plan, and God scoffs. They foolishly believe that when Jesus returns in the flesh, as He departed, they will again be able to have their way with Him as they did at the cross. Download Transcript

From His mouth chooses to now come a large sharp sword, so that with it He may strike down the nations. It signifies the deadly and sharp nature of the truth, as His word is truth, and it always accomplishes its purposes. But in the future, He will rule with a rod of unbending and unbreakable iron. Those appointed to death will be smite; those appointed to life will be shepherded. “… and He now treads the winepress of wine of the wrath the furious anger of God the Almighty.” Added to wrath is God's furious rage. In this press, He is not treading grapes, but the wine itself. The wine is emblematic of those in the household of God who were born-again, but never made that choice to become a little child of God. Download Transcript

When Jesus returns, He does not come alone, the armies of heaven are with Him on white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. His angels come with Him and His wife – all His holy ones. The Called and Chosen and Faithful (the wife) have been transformed into His image and share in His righteousness and purity. The white horse symbolizes victory before the war even starts. This is their victory ride. They are God's emissaries to implement His rule amongst the nations as He positions His people to rule and reign over the nations with a rod of iron. Download Transcript

He chose to having been clothed with a robe caused to having been dipped in blood, and His name is caused to have been called The Word of God. His blood-stained robe serves as a symbol of mercy and grace indicating what had been available to everyone. His bondservants wash their robes white in His blood. It is also a promise of HOPE to the Righteous who do not give themselves to the Beast. His name is the Word (the “logos”) of God indicating His preexistence of all things, the full and complete expression of the entire Godhead. All things were created by the Word which goes forth from the mouth of God. He is the Hayah (the ever existent one) and His memorial name for all generations is Yahweh. Download Transcript

Behold a white horse, a symbol of purity and righteousness and victory messaging that the war is over even before it begins. Jesus was, is, and always will be the victor. The rider is called faithful and true. He does everything He promised, it is just a matter of time. Even now He judges and now wages war. He fights for us against us and desires to put down anything within us that clings to the Harlot. It is His divine conquest. Through war He breaks the chains that bind us. His appearance: eyes like flames of fire (He sees all), and on His head many kingly crowns (He is ruler of all). He bears a secret name, a new name, which only He knows. Download Transcript

Blessed are those caused to being invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb. These now are true words of God. But John did not see himself as the bride, the center of creation, and so he worships an angel, proving the harlot lives in his heart, in all our hearts. We must flee her and reject her and worship only God. The witness or the one giving evidence of Jesus is the Spirit of God, as He is the Spirit of prophecy. He is heard, felt, and experienced proving that Jesus lives and explaining to us what will be, unveiling the truth, testifying that Jesus will do what He says, it is always just a matter of time. Download Transcript

The wife of the Lamb is juxtaposed with the Harlot, who is a false bride clothed in immorality, sensuality, and idolatry. Those who join in her apostasy become one with her, one flesh, and do the works of abomination. Whereas the true wife of Jesus, follows Him wherever He goes because they know that without Him, they can do nothing. They are faithful to the end dress in His righteousness alone. Their work is to believe in the one who the Father sent, that He is their I AM. The marriage supper of the Lamb is by invitation only. These now are true words of God. Download Transcript

The purpose of all things is fulfilled. The entire Biblical narrative is about this one moment, the marriage supper or the Lamb. From before time, from the beginning, the Father sought to provide His Son a true bride, a woman who would choose Him and love the One who was sacrificed for her (the Lamb). The wedding process has begun, the dowry (from the wife to the groom) and the mohar (from the groom to the wife) have been exchanged. The rapture of the church is when the groom comes for His bride and brings her into the home He has prepared. Those of the bride know it was not about their works, but about His grace and righteousness, and so they choose Him and made themselves ready through their willingness to let Jesus be their I AM.

John is finished with the wilderness and is again before the throne of God where he hears hallelujahs and praise because the Harlot has been judged. Hallelujah His judgements are true and righteous Hallelujah the smoke of the harlot's judgment now rises up forever and ever Hallelujah Amen, says the 24 Elders and the 4 Living Creatures All you His bondservants, you who are caused to now be fearing Him, are commanded to now praise our God "Hallelujah! For the Lord our God, the Almighty, has reigned Download Transcript

The Harlot is abandoned and destroyed. She is stripped of everything, possessing no more power in this world, and she is thrown down into the sea of humanity. There are 3 reasons for her destruction. 1.      The Merchants of the Earth were the great ones of the earth. Those demonic beings that were involved in the creation of the giants on earth, as the angelic somehow comingled with humanity creating the famed “Nephilim.” 2.      The Harlot deceived through sorcery, through the spell-based potions she mixed in her cup and caused much of humanity to drink. 3.      She spilled blood and is accountable for ALL the blood spilled on the earth. There were 3 lamentations, 3 declarations, and 3 reasons for her judgment. The mark of perfection. Download Transcript

The three lamentations: The Kings of the Earth are now saying: 'Woe, woe, the city that great Babylon the city that mighty, the city that great Babylon the city that mighty… The Merchants of the earth are now saying: 'Woe, woe, the city that great the, the city that great one … The Professionals and the Passengers are now saying: 'Woe, woe, the city that great, the city that great … The Professionals and Passengers know the Harlot is the city that great, but the delusion of those who have been drinking the Harlot's wine and held captive by the unclean spirits, birds, and beasts, fail to recognize who it is that they have been serving. To the Professionals, Jesus gave the sternest rebuke, and He identifies them with the demonic and warned them of judgment. Jesus commands them to let Him cause them to rejoice over the destruction of the Harlot and her system of Christian religion. Download Transcript

The judgment of the Harlot impacts not just the merchants of Christianity, but also their customers, the professionals who keep this system of religion going on generation after generation. These are spiritual entities with human avatars who carry out their purposes. The shipmasters and the sailors are those who fish for the souls of men; they are responsible to carry the “gospel” message from one place to another. They use large nets to drag in all manner of fish into the household of God. Every passenger now sailing captures those who participate in the ministry and who attend the church services, the Bible studies, the small group gatherings, the conferences, the worship services, etc. As many as now choose to make their living by the sea picks up all those who are involved in the business which supports the functioning of ministry. Behind the machinations of religion, behind all the work of the ministry which stems forth from those held captive to the Harlot, are demonic entities. The human avatars are compelled by all the harlot offers them. Download Transcript

The Kings of the Earth have been committing acts of immorality with the Harlot – they let religion rule in their human territories across the world. These angelic/demonic entities know about the Harlot's destruction, and they stand at a distance and mourn. They know that a great source of their power, wealth, and control will be stripped from them. The Harlot's hour of judgment has come, the grip of religion is declining. The Merchants of the Earth, also angelic demonic entities, retail religion to the populus, and they too weep and mourn because of religions' decline. Even men will no longer find power, control, honor, influence, wealth, productivity, validation, respect, and purpose, community, and acceptance through religion. Download Transcript

The Harlot's delusion comes when we believe that our love for worship proves that we love Jesus and that we know Him. The Harlot and those unclean spirits, birds, and beasts who watch over the people of God love it when we worship, they even require it. The worship of God does not equal relationship with God, for many, like all those in Babylon, it just equates to experience with God. As with Israel, Jesus saw them as apostate, despite the fervor for worship. Faith is the issue, a faith that produces God's agape love. That is true worship. True worship is to allow the complete dispossession of all that we are for all that He is! This is the ultimate exchange: our life for His life so others may know Him by our love. Come out of her my people. Download Transcript

The sixth command is to now be caused to rejoice over the Harlot's destruction because God has pronounced judgment for you against her. It is personal and God has done this on the behalf of the true believer because the arrogance of the Harlot is unparalleled. God has been judging her, but in one day, she will know death, mourning, and famine, these will define her eternal existence. The Harlot will be stripped of life. Her religions will no longer have a platform upon which to operate. The implications of her judgment to those in the household of God is scary. If they do not flee her, they will share in her eternal existence of death, mourning, and famine or want. God wants us to choose to live as a son and not a slave bound to the Harlot remembering that the source matters the source is everything. The obedience of Christ comes when His agape love is flowing in-and-through our lives. Download Transcript

The Spirit tells us to test ourselves to see if we are in faith. But given the level of delusion in which the people of God tend to dwell (drunk or hungover from the Harlot's wine), how do we know if we have passed the test? If we are in any way living for God and not by God (Jesus living His life in-and-through ours), then we are still captive in the Harlot's house and are not living by the grace of God. We have not fled. The ultimate proof is agape love, comprised of joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Commands 2-5 about paying back the Harlot after one has fled her control is tied to the prophecies of Babylon which came to fruition and will come to fruition to spiritual Babylon. Our vengeance on Babylon is severe. We are to pay her back as she has paid, give back to her double and double according to her deeds, in the cup she has mixed, mix twice as much for her, and to an excessive degree, give her torment and mourning.

The children of God drinking the wine of the Harlot are her prisoners. The unclean demonic spirits, birds, and beasts are their guardians, their overlords, hate and detest the people of God who are drunk with spiritual delusion and are unaware of their imprisonment. The Kings of the earth committed immorality with her. They permitted her to act within their territories and like the Seven Heads, they seduced humanity into idolatrous worship. The Merchants of the Earth are the spirits behind the human merchants of religion, such as churches, media outlets, bookstores, religious colleges, and every organization that is involved in merchandising religious product for monetary gain. They became rich by the Harlot's strength. There are six commands with the first being to come out of her so we may not participate in her sins and be subject to her judgments.

Revelation 18 provides us with a command and a warning, a severe threat. “You are commanded, the people, the people, mine, to come out of her so that you may not participate of her the sins and may not receive of her plagues …” If we do not heed this warning, we might be among those who are left behind at the rapture. “Babylon has been a golden cup in the hand of Yahweh, intoxicating all the earth. The nations have drunk of her wine; therefore, the nations are going mad.” This has been God's Plan-A all along, “For from Him, and through Him, and to Him (or for His purposes) are all things. There are six (6) commands given: 1) to come out of her; 2) to pay her back as she has paid; 3) to make this payback double and double; 4) to mix twice as much for in the cup which she mixed, a cup filled with the blood of the saints; 5) to give her torment and mourning; and 6) to rejoice over her because God has pronounced judgment against her for us. Babylon the great has imprisoned Christians who are guarded by unclean spirits, birds, beasts – demonic spirits. Download Transcript

The Woman who rides the Beast, the Harlot of religious apostasy has a global ministry amongst all “peoples and multitudes and nations and tongues.” God uses evil to judge evil. The 10 Horns and the Beast will in the future hate the harlot and cause her to become desolate and naked. They will eat her flesh and burn her up with fire. Desolate will be her eternal state of existence. This is God's plan for he puts it in their hearts to execute this plan. Until then, this woman is the “great city” that now reigns over the Kings of the Earth. Her city is where Jesus was crucified. It is the city of religious apostasy. The Kings of the Earth are spiritual beings in control of the territories of the earth and they have submitted to her ways and participated in her abominations. Download Transcripts

“… and those with Him (with Jesus) Called and Chosen and Faithful." The Called of God are all those who have been born again, brought into God's household. They all are given the opportunity to learn WHY they can trust Yahweh with all their heart, mind, soul, and strength, just like a little child, and HOW to trust Him. Chosen are those who are born again AND they have chosen to live like a little child in unrestrained freedom, dependent upon Yahweh for all things all the time. They live free from the law. The Faithful are Called and Chosen, and they are the enduring bondservants of Jesus Christ, who are now overcoming, now having ears to hear what the Spirit is saying, now following the Lamb wherever He goes, holding to the testimony of Jesus, and are choosing to come out of the great tribulation.

The heads of the Beast have 10 horns who are now 10 kings, spiritual entities, demonic spirits. The Destroyer (the Beast) is one of the horns. These 10 now receive authority with the Beast but will be able to exercise it for one hour only, the hour of testing, the hour of judgment, the one hour in which they will attack the woman who rides the Beast and destroy her. They all have one mind and one purpose, and they give their power and authority to the Beast. They will in the future wage war against the Lamb and the Lamb will defeat them because He now is Lord of lords and King of kings, and those with Him Called and Chosen and Faithful.

There are 5 of the heads who have fallen, one is, the seventh is yet to come and will remain for a short while, and the Beast is also an eighth but is one of the seven. Five angelic beings manifested themselves to the people of God to be worshipped as gods. They have since fallen from their place of prominence and are no longer worshipped. They are Baal, Ashtoreth, Milcom, Chemosh, and Molech. The Spirit said the sixth now is. In the first century, the central god who manifested himself to be worshiped is Zeus known throughout the Roman Empire as Jupiter. This god is still worshipped today by the people of God in the form of a statute of St. Peter. The idol of Zeus/Jupiter stands in St. Peter's Basilica in Rome and millions worship before this idol. The seventh was yet to come, but he will remain only a little while. Since the first century only one being has manifested as god, and that is Allah. The Beast is an eighth but one of the seven. Chemosh was a head, then he was vanquished to the Abyss being butchered, and rises again as the Beast (as the eighth), supercharged with the dragon's power, throne, and great authority.
