1. The Ancient Calendar that Reveals Your Future

I was born and raised in Southern California, but my parents immigrated from India a year before I was born.

I'm from the northern state of India, which is called Punjab.

Well, you are an Indian by faith, my brother, so.

I wanna make a promise to you guys that if you go through this entire series, you're gonna come out changed, And I'll tell you why.

And I'm gonna make that guarantee based upon the promises of the word of God.

By the way, if you hear the word amen or Hallelujah, don't be startled.

When you hear that word amen and or hallelujah, it just simply means I agree.

Now, what we're gonna be doing is we're gonna be going through a journey with God's word.

Now what's remarkable about these series is that they take place all over the world.

You're gonna find these seminars taking place in India, Pakistan, all over Asia, all over Europe.

I actually have a friend who's doing another series in a really big 1 actually that's on TV in New Zealand.

But these series take place all over, even right now as we speak.

There are thousands of seminars just like this taking place.

And what's exciting about this is that you guys get to experience.

Now how many people here have ever been to 1 of these seminars?

Now what you can do is make sure that the people around you who have not been to these seminars, make sure they feel at home.

Now how many people here need a Bible or pen or pencil or worksheet?

We want to make sure we get these to you.

Just raise your hand if you need 1, and Elias will pass 1 out to you.

Well, why don't we start with the word of prayer right now, you guys?

Father in heaven, we thank you so much for this time.

And Lord, as we jump into your word, God, we need the Holy Spirit.

We can't understand your word without your spirit.

Father, we pray and ask that your angels are drawn to this place.

And God, you gave a very special promise that if 2 or 3 are gathered in your name, there you are amongst us.

All right, there's another guarantee I'm going to make.

When we start these presentations, and generally we're going to start them at 715, we are going to get you out by 815.

Because I know you guys have lives, okay?

And so I'm gonna do my best to make sure you guys are out here at 8.15.

If I should ever go over 8.15, you just take a look at Lily over there.

And Lily's gonna press a red button and that's just gonna drop me through a chute, okay?

That's at 815, all you need to do is just look at her, okay?

But the great thing about these seminars is this.

Now, if you look in the flyer, it announces just a few nights, but these seminars actually go for a total of 3 weeks.

If you look at the topics we're going to be covering, we're going to be covering prophecy, Star Wars, we're going to be covering Antichrist finally revealed, we're going to get into the Mark of the Beast, the Millennium, what happens when you die, and why in the world is there so many churches?

We're also gonna get into Prophecy's Health Plan and that is 1 you do not wanna miss.

And there's plenty of other topics that we're gonna cover during this series.

What's great about this is that We have 2 nights off, 2 nights, Monday and Thursday.

No doubt someone's gonna show up here Monday night and looking for the seminar.

It is not going to take place here, okay?

But we'll make sure somebody is there at 6.15 and 7.15 to direct you to go back home and come back Tuesday and Wednesday.

So that means we have a meeting tomorrow night and Sunday night.

Tomorrow night, we're gonna get into the end of the world.

Then Sunday, we're gonna get into prophecy, Star Wars.

In other words, if God is so good, why is the world so bad?

We're gonna be talking about what the Bible says about the fall of Lucifer.

And now, when it comes to these seminars, I just need 2 things from you, all right?

Number 1, I'm going to need your Bible, so if you don't have a Bible, we got 1 for you.

And the second thing I'm going to do is you're going to need your brain.

This is not something where I just communicate truth to you and you walk away and you think to yourself, well, that was really great.

I want you to check out all the things that I talked to you about.

The more you examine truth, the more truthful truth is.

2. The End Of the World: Near or Just Fear?

Well, I'm glad that you guys are here tonight.

I know that God has some special things in store for us I know we're gonna learn a lot from the Word of God And I just want to still continue to challenge you if you continue to come out to these meetings You're gonna learn a lot about the Bible In fact people who go through these seminars by the very end of this seminar, know more about the Bible than most ministers.

Those who go through this seminar learn more about the Bible than most ministers.

And if The Word of God is worth everything to us.

Well, some of the future topics, we talked about this.

We're gonna be getting into prophecy, Star Wars.

We're also gonna get into the Antichrist finally revealed.

You're going to see from Bible prophecy the identity of the Antichrist in fact you'll be the 1 that's going to make the you'll be able to be the 1 that it calls out the identity we'll get into the mark of the beast the thousand years a lot of people have questions about the Millennium what happens during the thousand years and you're gonna see this very plain and simple from the Word of God.

We're also going to get into prophecies, health plan, and this is topic, these are topics you don't want to miss.

So make sure you don't show up here Monday and not here Thursday, but make sure you are here the rest of the days, Mondays and Thursdays.

And this seminar only goes for 3 weeks and then we are done.

We are absolutely done with this seminar.

But I promise you this, I'm going to continue to make this guarantee that if you come out to the entire seminar, you don't miss 1 night, you're going to walk away from this just utterly changed, utterly changed.

And by the way, there's no pyramid scheme at the end of this.

Okay, I'm not gonna say to you, and by the way, you need to buy our brand new product and find 5 other people who are willing to sell that product as well.

We want you to understand the word of God for yourself.

Well, why don't we start with the word of prayer right now?

Father in heaven, we thank you so much again for your Holy Spirit.

Thank you, God, for the Word of God as well.

And we know that each person who is here tonight is here because your Spirit drew them out.

Father, it could have just been a flyer on the door or somebody going around or something in the mail, but Lord, you brought us here to hear and understand something so special.

And we thank you, God, because we know it is for our good.

May each person walk away from this presentation tonight with their mind and their heart open to the plans of God.

I'm gonna do me a favor, I'm actually gonna tie my shoe up here so I don't trip.

So by the way, does everybody have a Bible or a pen or pencil or a study guide?

If you don't have that, just raise your hand and we're going to get that to you.

If you need a Bible, a study guide, or a pen or pencil, just raise your hand and we're going to get that to you ASAP.

Okay, we got somebody's hand raised over there.

And maybe we can get somebody going out over there.

Tonight's message is entitled, The end of the world.

A lot of people ask questions about the end of time.

A lot of people are asking questions about 2012.

A lot of people are doing some unusual researching when it comes to the end of the world.

We're living in a day and age where a lot of people are really asking questions.

You know, I was actually going through the laundry mat, not through the laundry mat, through the dry cleaner, and the lady at the dry cleaner, wonderful woman, she stops me as I'm about to leave and she says to me, Anel can I ask you a question?

She says, is something big going to take place in 2012?

And I wish I had a seminar flyer at that moment, but I didn't.

But folks, I know that God has some awesome things in the word of God.

We don't need to look to some Mayan calendar, but we can actually go to the word of God for ourselves and understand what Jesus says about the end of time.

And as we study the word of God, you're gonna find that the word of God is clear, the word of God is accurate, the word of God is relevant, and the word of God is sufficient.

Yesterday we learned about the metal man image found in Daniel chapter what?

And we also learned that that metal man is actually a calendar.

We learned that the belly represents, the belly of bronze represents what?

And the feet of iron and clay represent what?

By the way, if you think I talk too fast, that's okay.

There's a majority of people around me who think that as well.

So, because of that, we have 2 things we're going to offer to you and don't worry they're all free.

There's actually going to be a recording you can actually get the CDs for these presentations there you can get them online if you'd like and they're online they're absolutely free.

Afterwards when you leave out you walk away from here you're gonna be given a Bible study guide as well where you're able to take some of these same verses and check it out for yourself.

Because what are the 3 words we're gonna say over and over again here?

Now I'm gonna borrow 1 of these study guides So we can go through it together.

3. War Of the Stars

Father in heaven, we thank you so much, because you have called us for such a time as this, as it says in Esther 4, verse 14.

And Lord, thank you so much that a man plans his steps, but the Lord directs his path.

And God, you have directed us here because we know you have things you want to communicate to us.

We just pray and ask God that the Holy Spirit would speak.

And God, we claim that promise in John chapter 16, when he, the Spirit of truth, shall come, He will guide you to all truth.

And Lord, we know that you're able to do this.

After these meetings, you're going to find out that after each night, you're going to receive a study guide over the topic that we covered.

So if I'm speaking just a little too fast for you, I'm going to do my best to slow down.

Right after the meetings, you'll see there's going to be somebody passing out a study guide, and if you don't get 1, just come see me or go see Lily right there.

You know who Lily is now, so if you need anything, you just go talk to her, right?

By the way, are you excited about tomorrow night's message?

And then Tuesday and Wednesday, and then when's the next night off?

Well, folks, I know that we're on a journey, and tonight's message is going to be another step in that journey.

The name of tonight's message is called War of the Stars.

I promise you this, that you're going to be extremely blessed and enlightened by the Word of God.

We're going to continue covering future topics as well.

We're going to cover the Mark of the Beast.

You're going to walk away knowing what the, who the Antichrist is and what the mark of the beast is as well.

Man, by the way, in order to identify the mark of the beast you have to first identify the beast.

A lot of people attempt to identify the mark of the beast without first identifying the beast's power.

But you're going to understand this as we continue and progress.

You're gonna walk away from this Revelation series with your mind blown away with Bible prophecy.

We're also gonna cover the topic about the millennium, and you're gonna see it straight from Scripture, what the Bible teaches about the thousand years.

You know I've heard a lot of presentations about the book of Revelation and the book of Daniel and many times those presentations can be extremely confusing.

They'll take you off to some text over here and some text over there, but folks we're all about context here.

You're going to see what God is teaching straight from the Word of God, from the word of God.

And we'll also get into the exciting message called Prophecy's Health Plan, and that is a message you do not want to miss, especially in this day and age.

We'll also discover as we continue in this that you will gain greater confidence in the scriptures, the Bible will become more clearer to you, become more accurate, more relevant, and more sufficient.

By the way, has anybody ever read a book written by an Eskimo?

Raise your hand if you've actually read a book written by an Eskimo.

Has anybody ever read a book written by an Indian man?

Has anybody ever read a book written by somebody from China?

The majority of people have not written a book written by an Eskimo, written by somebody from India, and written by somebody in China, but guess what?

There is somebody right now, somebody right now in Alaska, who's coming out of the igloo, and they're opening up a Bible.

There's somebody right now in China who's opening up their Bible right now and reading it.

There's somebody in India who's opening up their Bible right now and reading it.

My point is this, the Bible is a book that transcends culture.

And that's why this book is extremely exciting.

God has made it for the simple seeker all the way to the studious scholar.

Tonight's message is entitled, The War of the Stars.

Has anybody ever heard of this man, Eli Weasley?

He was actually somebody who was part of the German concentration camps.

He has sat down with various leaders, political leaders, throughout the world.

He speaks before colleges and universities.

And he shares his testimony about his life.

As a young man, he grew up in Eastern Europe, and there he experienced a lot of prejudice against the Jews.

And as a young man, he was placed in a concentration camp.

His mother and his sister actually died during that period.

His father and him made it out shortly after.

There's actually a picture of him right there.

If you see this individual right there, that's him right there.

When he was a young man, he's grown some facial hair.

There was a picture of him while he was there.

But he was able to leave the concentration camp with all these memories.

I actually met an individual, an older gentleman, who was actually part of Hitler's youth.

And people who have gone through that time and through that experience have experienced hardship and pain and experiences that continue to rock their lives today.

Well, this individual, he has never forgot about it, and to this day, he has written several books.

4. Prophecy’s Answer to the Skeptic

Father in heaven, we thank you so much for tonight.

And God, we know that these are very special times that we're living in, and you want us to have faith and confidence in your word, because that's the only thing that can guide us.

And Lord Jesus, we pray and ask for the Spirit to give us wisdom.

I was actually reading a very wonderful article.

It was found in MSNBC, and it was about 3 Japanese tourists who ended up in some water.

They were touring America and they got a GPS and they were following the GPS except they ended up near the coast and they continued to follow the GPS into water and until the point where they could no longer drive the car.

So they actually got off a boat ramp and continued in the water and they ended up being there and they said this, well if the car was made in Japan, this wouldn't have happened.

But you know what's very interesting about that?

Is that even with the GPS, you need some common sense, right?

Here's the thing to understand, folks, don't miss this point.

Without the Holy Spirit, we can't understand God's word.

Without the Holy Spirit, we're gonna end up in some far-off places places We should not be we need the Spirit of God And I praise God for that verse in John chapter 16 where Jesus says, When He, the Spirit of truth shall come, He will guide you to all truth.

We need to trust the Spirit of God that He'll guide us in the scriptures.

Well, are you guys excited about the message tomorrow?

Remember, There's messages, there are messages Tuesday and Wednesdays, but Thursdays are off nights, amen?

Thursday is off so you can get just all the stuff prepared for Friday, Saturday, Sunday, okay?

Well, There's also 1 more thing I want to mention to you, and that is if you have questions and some of the things we're covering don't make sense, don't just walk away because just 1 thing can be corrected and you'll see the consistency of the truth of the scriptures.

All you need to do, if you see that green box right there, Lisa, do you mind holding up that green box?

If you have some questions, feel free to write them down and just put them in that box right afterwards.

And starting tomorrow, we're gonna start answering a few questions before we begin the presentation.

Well, tonight's message is entitled, Prophecy's Answer to the Skeptics.

The thing that we get to as we continue in this Bible study is that we begin to understand that God's Word can be trusted.

God's Word is clear, God's Word is accurate, God's Word is relevant, and God's Word is sufficient.

And regardless of what your past experience has been with the scriptures, God is calling you to have a brand new experience in the word of God, amen?

Because this is the only thing that's gonna get us home, amen?

The basic instructions before leaving earth, right?

God left the word for us so that we might have a guide and the Holy Spirit to direct us in understanding this light, amen?

Anthony Flew, Does anybody know who Anthony Flew is?

Okay, well, Anthony Flew is considered, was considered 1 of the greatest atheists at 1 time.

But this man, you can see some of his debates on YouTube, you can read some of his books.

He debated some of the top Christian apologists.

This individual was a renowned atheist philosopher.

He had several degrees, and he was bent on proving that there is no God.
