Babylon the Fall and the Call

Blood on the Hands of the Remnant

On kind of a gray, cool night, thank you.

Thank you that we can be here and have our minds and hearts touched in a sensory experience that whether it's closing our eyes and listening, or whether it's looking at the beautiful color projected onto screens and the powerful messages of heaven in the Word.

And I'm praying for those Lord that we wish were watching or were here with us.

I pray give us that open door to speak to those whose lives are charged with the cares of this world.

Could be work, could be studies, could just be something trifling.

But I'm praying, Lord, touch lives, touch hearts, Renew us and revive us and bless us as we go into the word tonight in Jesus name.

I can put all the rest of the nights on the screen.

Tomorrow night, 1 of the most amazing prophecies in Scripture.

I've talked to you about the 3 phases of Christ's ministry.

I'm going to talk about them again tonight, but tomorrow night I'm going to show you the most amazing time prophecy in all of the Bible.

On Tuesday night, I'm going to talk about something that most people have never thought about.

In Revelation chapter 14, verse 6, it says that there's 3 angels that are flying around the world at the end.

And they are proclaiming the eternal gospel.

You know, there's going to come a point in time in which the last battle is going to be fought.

I want you to understand this battle between true and false prophets will come to an end Wednesday night.

We're going to look at prophetic showdown.

And then on Thursday night in Revelation chapter 14, the second of the 3 angels says Babylon is fallen Come out of her my people if you don't know what it is.

But Babylon will be destroyed the scriptures say she'll fall in 1 day And great will be the fall thereof.

And lastly, on Friday night, the mark of the beast.

It doesn't matter if you're religious or not.

You just want to know what it is so you don't get it.

Knowing what it is is only part of not getting it.

But tonight, Bible prophecy and the last conspiracy.

Tell me what these things have in common.

Don't say it out loud, just think about it.

What they have in common is that there's a large segment of people around the world who believe that they were all part of a conspiracy.

That was something that came out of Hollywood 50 years ago this summer.

And as for the tragedy that took 3, 000 plus lives on September 11th, that was orchestrated by our government, some say, to attempt to get more control and take back some of the constitutional freedoms we have.

And as for JFK, all kinds of theories have abounded in regards to his death.

Friends, I want you to know there's something about the human mind that just naturally turns to conspiracy.

You want to know the truth about MLK, JFK, RFK, and Malcolm X?

Well, go to somebody who thinks they've got the inside track and you can learn the latest undercover story.

But you need to know in my job I hate conspiracies.

This church has a membership of over a thousand people.

Especially if 1 fulfills a true prophetic role of edification, which is teaching the truth, of exhortation, which is reminding people when they're wandering from it, and of consolation, which is the work of comfort from God when 1 resurrenders his life.

If all the people you know are like all the people I know then you know all the people don't appreciate all of That all the time and you know the Bible has a lot to say about gossip and negative talking And of course if you're a leader in God's Church all of those Admonitions mean a whole lot more to you if I worried about all the conspiracies that might be working their way out inside a group of people as large as the 1 I'm dealing with, I would be brought to ruin.

If I started thinking about the evil things, and by the way, I tell my church, I know more bad things about all of you than anybody else.

And that's how it is with Jesus too, but you know, not that my love is like His, but my love comes from Him.

He loves you and the members of this church I love.

And I look at them through the eyeglasses of Christ.

I don't look through them through the conspiratorial eyeglasses.

Do you understand what I'm talking about?

There's something about the human heart that isn't trusting in God, that is naturally very afraid, and understanding what's going on behind the scenes is a way of hedging oneself against the future.

I mean, the world's becoming more insecure all the time.

It's unraveling, not just at the edges, but almost at the center, you think.

And conspiracy theories are abounding because people lie, and they don't tell the truth, and they hide things, and they're deceitful.

And it's no wonder that people don't trust each other.

And if everybody's as selfish as I am, then they're always looking out for themselves anyway.

But I want to tell you, there's going to be a group on the face of the earth at the end of time who rise above it all.

They're sincere because Christ is in them.

They're truthful because Christ is in them.

And this communion and this community will rise up out of the ashes of a decaying culture, and people will be drawn to it first because of the beauty of Christ that's in the fellowship, And after that, the teachings that explain why.

And I try to tell people, it's better for people to taste and see that the Lord is good than for you to try to convince them that He is.

I didn't have to figure it out when I was a young Christian.

My teachers in that church school I went to when I was thrust into it as a 13 year old, didn't wanna go.

Listen friends, Christian education is a sanctuary in a polluting culture, a defiling culture in our age.

And that Christian teacher that would read me worship in the morning was a Christian through the rest of the day, and I'll tell you what I fell in love with Jesus through my teacher Christianity is powerful when it's lived out and it's repulsive when it's only proclaimed We must live what we teach or what we teach will be impotent.

It will have no power And the world's gotten used to that Even the Christian world and I put Christian in quote marks.

Yes, you want to know the real dirt, look for somebody who's got something negative to say that everybody else doesn't know, then you'll be in the know, you'll be 1 leg up on everybody else, and you won't be duped.

The big problem with conspiracy thinking is it trains you to look for evil.

And I want you to read a quote from 1 of my favorite authors.

It says, the very act of looking for evil in others develops the evil in those who look.
