WEBVTT 00:26.360 --> 00:27.320 Good morning. 00:27.460 --> 00:29.060 Welcome to Inquisition Update. 00:29.360 --> 00:32.060 My name is Tom Friess, and I'll be your host for the next hour. 00:32.520 --> 00:34.940 You're listening to FirstAmendmentRadio .com. 00:35.080 --> 00:36.360 Thanks for tuning in, everybody. 00:37.100 --> 00:41.240 Yesterday, and by the way, we're reading a new book here on Inquisition Update 00:41.240 --> 00:44.020 entitled, A Woman Rides the Beast. 00:44.080 --> 00:47.400 Now, it's not a new book, but it's new here on Inquisition Update. 00:47.400 --> 00:54.500 This book was written by Dave Hunt, and I'm pleased to read this. 00:54.860 --> 01:01.340 Now, reiterating what I said yesterday, Dave, despite his knowledge of the Vatican 01:01.340 --> 01:05.600 Jesuit-led New World Order, was a futurist. 01:06.240 --> 01:14.600 And I'm facing his futurism and leaving it to my listeners to continue their own 01:14.600 --> 01:15.820 research into the subject. 01:15.820 --> 01:24.140 And yesterday on the program, we were reading about Dave's description of a book 01:24.140 --> 01:33.860 and a movie that was produced, although not very successful, a movie or a 01:33.860 --> 01:38.160 book, not very widely accepted or watched or read, as it were. 01:38.160 --> 01:45.500 But nonetheless, it points out in the book and the movie that Jesus wasn't the 01:45.500 --> 01:45.840 Messiah. 01:46.040 --> 01:51.820 He was a charlatan, a fraud, and that he manually fulfilled the prophecies in the 01:51.820 --> 01:56.900 Bible regarding the Messiah, having some knowledge of the Bible, being as he wrote 01:56.900 --> 02:01.320 it, having some knowledge of the prophecies in the Bible, and those 02:01.320 --> 02:07.500 prophecies dealing specifically with Israel and the Messiah, that Jesus, 02:07.920 --> 02:13.840 with the cooperation of his apostles and certain people surrounding him, 02:14.700 --> 02:17.920 fulfilled those prophecies manually of their own efforts. 02:18.320 --> 02:24.380 It's a ridiculous assertion, but nonetheless, Dave Hunt presents this to us 02:24.380 --> 02:32.280 to show just how absurd it is, and to reiterate to us that the very thing 02:32.280 --> 02:37.360 that authenticates the Bible, that makes it the undeniable, inherent word of 02:37.360 --> 02:42.640 Almighty God, is the fulfillment of Bible prophecy, prophecies that could not have 02:42.640 --> 02:44.540 been fulfilled by a mere man. 02:45.440 --> 02:50.320 Now, beginning on the last full paragraph on page 30, if you're following along in 02:50.320 --> 02:55.760 the book, backing up just a paragraph or two for continuity purposes, Dave Hunt 02:55.760 --> 03:03.440 begins discussing this movie further, and reiterating the suggestion that Jesus 03:03.440 --> 03:04.860 was just a mere man. 03:05.560 --> 03:12.700 He says, yes, there were a few prophecies which Jesus of Nazareth could have 03:12.700 --> 03:15.600 conspired with Judas and others to fulfill. 03:16.520 --> 03:21.120 Most prophecies, however, were beyond the control of any mere man. 03:21.340 --> 03:28.580 For example, being born in Bethlehem, and of the seed of David, were major 03:28.580 --> 03:30.240 requirements of the Messiah. 03:31.140 --> 03:39.260 Could Jesus have determined the city of his own birth, or his genetic lineage, 03:40.120 --> 03:41.540 being a mere man? 03:41.540 --> 03:42.920 Obviously not. 03:43.880 --> 03:49.940 He says, the timing of Messiah's birth, too, as foretold, was obviously beyond the 03:49.940 --> 03:51.840 influence of any ordinary mortal. 03:52.720 --> 03:58.200 No, Jesus didn't determine the time of his birth if he were a mere man. 03:59.080 --> 04:03.760 Now, his birth had to occur, according to the Scriptures, according to the 04:03.760 --> 04:08.140 prophecies, before the scepter departed from Judah. 04:08.460 --> 04:11.640 That is recorded in Genesis 49.10. 04:12.560 --> 04:20.720 Also, while the temple was standing, Malachi 3.1, while the genealogical 04:20.720 --> 04:28.220 records were available to prove his lineage, see 2 Samuel 7.12, and also 04:28.220 --> 04:29.360 Psalms 89. 04:29.360 --> 04:36.280 And shortly before the temple and Jerusalem were destroyed, see Daniel 9.26. 04:36.980 --> 04:42.440 Daniel's prophecy, the 70 weeks of Daniel, foretells the destruction of the temple 04:42.440 --> 04:47.400 and of Jerusalem by the prince, Titus. 04:48.220 --> 04:49.520 Titus, the prince. 04:50.460 --> 04:54.720 Now, there was a narrow window of time during which the Messiah had to come, 04:54.820 --> 05:00.140 and he did, according to Dave Hunt, and I will say, a very, very, very narrow 05:00.140 --> 05:02.820 window of time because of Daniel's prophecy. 05:03.880 --> 05:09.320 I mean, look, literally, Simeon was standing at the steps of the temple 05:09.320 --> 05:14.560 waiting for Mary to come and fulfill the law and have her newly born son 05:14.560 --> 05:18.700 circumcised on the eighth day of his life, according to the law. 05:18.700 --> 05:23.700 And Simeon says, mine eyes have beheld the salvation of Israel. 05:24.140 --> 05:28.660 How did Simeon know when Jesus was going to be born? 05:29.460 --> 05:34.100 I assert to my listeners that the Holy Spirit guided him through the Scriptures, 05:34.700 --> 05:40.100 brought him to the prophecies recorded in the Scripture, particularly that one of 05:40.100 --> 05:50.120 Daniel 9.24-27, and simply by counting the days and the years, according to that 05:50.120 --> 05:57.660 prophecy, he knew that Jesus would be born at this time. 05:57.660 --> 06:06.420 Now, as the Apostle Paul, a former rabbi, so eloquently put it, quote, but when the 06:06.420 --> 06:14.900 fullness of time was come, God sent forth his son, made of a woman, Galatians 4.4. 06:15.380 --> 06:19.740 It is too late for the Messiah to make his first appearance now. 06:19.740 --> 06:23.640 There can only be a second coming, as the Bible declares. 06:24.520 --> 06:30.860 Yet the Jews still await the first appearing of the one whom they will 06:30.860 --> 06:37.440 imagine is their Messiah, but will who in fact be the Antichrist. 06:38.200 --> 06:43.920 And this is reference to the Scripture that says, Jesus being persecuted by the 06:43.920 --> 06:48.000 Jews says, I came in my father's name and you received me not. 06:48.680 --> 06:52.100 But there is one coming after me who will come in his own name and him you will 06:52.100 --> 06:52.680 receive. 06:52.680 --> 07:02.180 So, Dave Hunt realizes that the Jews of Israel today are prepared to accept the 07:02.180 --> 07:05.620 false Messiah, the Antichrist. 07:06.440 --> 07:11.420 And I maintained at the close of the program yesterday that even those who once 07:11.420 --> 07:16.540 called themselves Protestants, having relinquished Protestantism, 07:16.700 --> 07:23.960 declared it to be a lie, declared it to be a gross error, have rejoined ecumenically 07:23.960 --> 07:27.300 the Roman Catholic Church, have united with the Roman Catholic Church, 07:27.580 --> 07:38.000 and they too are prepared to receive a false Messiah, the second coming in a 07:38.000 --> 07:40.080 counterfeit second return of Christ. 07:42.460 --> 07:45.720 Now he continues, the scepter departed from Judah. 07:46.160 --> 07:49.760 Now we are dealing with these prophecies one at a time. 07:50.600 --> 07:57.680 The scepter departed from Judah about 7 AD when the rabbis lost the right to exact 07:57.680 --> 07:58.480 the death penalty. 07:58.480 --> 08:01.660 They did that when they came under Roman law. 08:02.760 --> 08:11.200 Rome was in control of the land at that time and the rabbis of Israel lost the 08:11.200 --> 08:15.720 right to execute criminals. 08:16.980 --> 08:23.060 Now it says this right was crucial to the practice of their religion because death 08:23.060 --> 08:25.800 was the penalty for certain religious offenses. 08:27.040 --> 08:31.840 When Pilate told the rabbis he wanted nothing to do with Jesus and for them to 08:31.840 --> 08:37.640 judge him themselves, they replied, It is not lawful for us to put away any 08:37.640 --> 08:38.500 man to death. 08:39.280 --> 08:41.620 See John chapter 18 verse 31. 08:42.340 --> 08:48.960 So clearly testimony in the scripture that the scepter had departed Judah. 08:49.860 --> 08:55.380 Now the Messiah had to be born before that power was lost and he had to be put to 08:55.380 --> 08:56.460 death afterward. 08:56.460 --> 09:04.400 For he was not to die by stoning, the Jews manner of execution, but by Roman 09:04.400 --> 09:05.460 crucifixion. 09:06.300 --> 09:11.400 Amazingly this crucifixion was prophesied centuries before that means of execution 09:11.400 --> 09:12.380 was even known. 09:13.170 --> 09:16.360 They pierced my hands and my feet. 09:17.000 --> 09:18.960 Psalms 22 verse 16. 09:19.900 --> 09:27.640 So see how absurd it is to propose that Jesus was just a mere man and that with 09:27.640 --> 09:33.680 cooperation of certain principles in his life he manually fulfilled the prophecies 09:33.680 --> 09:35.460 regarding Messiah. 09:36.350 --> 09:42.320 It's absurd and it is believed by those who hate God and hate the truth and are 09:42.320 --> 09:44.340 simply trying to hide from him. 09:46.200 --> 09:50.440 Dave continues, he says, Obviously too the Messiah had to be born while the 09:50.440 --> 09:55.880 genealogical records were in existence for there would be no proof that he was the 09:55.880 --> 09:56.860 seed of David. 09:57.760 --> 10:03.600 Those records were lost with the destruction of Jerusalem and the temple in 10:03.600 --> 10:04.520 70 AD. 10:05.100 --> 10:17.140 An event which both Daniel in chapter 9 and verse 26 and Christ prophesied in 10:17.140 --> 10:19.220 Matthew chapter 24 verse 2. 10:19.220 --> 10:23.580 Since then it has been too late for the Messiah to come. 10:24.240 --> 10:28.240 Though the majority of Jews still await his first advent. 10:29.120 --> 10:35.140 So the Jews are anxiously awaiting the coming of their Messiah, finally. 10:36.000 --> 10:38.160 But they reject that he has already come. 10:38.760 --> 10:44.720 And Rome, the Vatican is anxious to give them the Messiah that they are looking 10:44.720 --> 10:45.180 for. 10:45.860 --> 10:52.100 And that is the phony futurist fulfillment of Daniel chapter 9 verse 27, the 70th 10:52.100 --> 10:52.860 week of Daniel. 10:53.740 --> 10:58.500 They are looking for someone to give them a treaty so that they can begin animal 10:58.500 --> 10:59.780 sacrifices again. 11:00.160 --> 11:06.040 So that they may eat and drink damnation to themselves in proof that they still 11:06.040 --> 11:10.800 reject Christ Jesus as their Messiah. 11:11.460 --> 11:13.820 Just as they did 2000 years ago. 11:14.720 --> 11:19.090 And Rome is prepared to put up this phony antichrist. 11:19.520 --> 11:24.880 The Protestants will all believe that whoever gives the Jews permission to begin 11:24.880 --> 11:27.890 animal sacrifices again will be the biblical antichrist. 11:29.160 --> 11:33.020 And there will be just about no way to convince them otherwise. 11:33.960 --> 11:41.040 And then of course after the world recognizes this peacemaker as the 11:41.040 --> 11:45.280 antichrist, and once he is destroyed or otherwise taken out of the picture, 11:45.720 --> 11:47.980 then the world is prepared. 11:48.320 --> 11:56.140 The stage is properly set for the world to receive the false Christ, the antichrist, 11:56.600 --> 11:57.860 the Pope of Rome. 11:57.860 --> 12:04.620 Now he continues, he says, since then it has been too late for the Messiah to come, 12:04.980 --> 12:08.800 though the majority of Jews still await his first advent. 12:09.720 --> 12:16.480 Christians on the other hand expect a second coming which also was foretold by 12:16.480 --> 12:17.680 the Hebrew prophets. 12:19.000 --> 12:29.320 Now under the subtitle Amazing Fulfillments, Dave says, Had Jesus 12:29.320 --> 12:34.820 conspired to fulfill the prophecies, he would have had to bribe Pilate to 12:34.820 --> 12:39.340 condemn the two thieves to be crucified with him in fulfillment of Isaiah chapter 12:39.340 --> 12:40.780 53 verse 9. 12:41.460 --> 12:43.840 That would be a neat trick for a mere man, wouldn't it? 12:43.840 --> 12:49.680 He also would have had to know what soldiers would be on duty that day in 12:49.680 --> 12:55.180 order to bribe them ahead of time to divide his clothes among themselves and to 12:55.180 --> 12:56.600 gamble for his robe. 12:57.220 --> 12:59.480 See Psalm 22 verse 18. 13:00.520 --> 13:04.660 Also to give him vinegar to drink mingled with gall. 13:04.660 --> 13:07.600 See Psalm 69 verse 21. 13:08.080 --> 13:13.280 And to pierce his side with a spear according to Zechariah chapter 12 verse 13:13.280 --> 13:13.700 10. 13:14.200 --> 13:19.900 Instead of breaking his legs as was the custom, but which could not have been done 13:19.900 --> 13:21.060 to the Messiah. 13:21.300 --> 13:27.500 See Exodus chapter 12 verse 46 and Psalm 34 20. 13:28.580 --> 13:30.840 Were the rabbis also part of the plot? 13:31.540 --> 13:38.960 Was that why they paid Judas exactly, exactly 30 pieces of silver to betray 13:38.960 --> 13:43.180 Jesus as prophesied by Zechariah chapter 11 verse 12. 13:43.560 --> 13:49.520 And then to use the money to buy a quote-unquote potter's field for burying 13:49.520 --> 13:53.160 strangers when Judas threw it down at their feet at the temple. 13:53.320 --> 13:57.720 Again as foretold in Zechariah chapter 11 verse 13. 13:57.720 --> 14:04.460 Is that why they crucified Jesus precisely when the Passover lambs were being slain 14:04.460 --> 14:05.440 all over Israel? 14:05.800 --> 14:08.720 In fulfillment of Exodus chapter 12 verse 6. 14:09.220 --> 14:15.100 The Passover plot scenario becomes increasingly ridiculous the more one 14:15.100 --> 14:15.940 examines it. 14:16.660 --> 14:17.740 But what's Dave's point? 14:18.420 --> 14:21.140 We have the authentic word of Almighty God. 14:21.780 --> 14:27.300 The fulfillment of these prophecies regarding Israel and Jesus Christ. 14:27.640 --> 14:31.120 Put it beyond the realm of probability. 14:32.080 --> 14:38.420 You simply can't calculate the odds of all of these prophecies being fulfilled by one 14:38.420 --> 14:38.800 man. 14:39.600 --> 14:41.540 This was not just a man. 14:41.700 --> 14:43.380 This was Christ the Lord. 14:43.540 --> 14:45.140 The Son of the Living God. 14:45.140 --> 14:51.320 And we can trust our Bible more than any other book on the planet. 14:51.720 --> 14:56.000 Because its author is divine and infallible. 14:56.400 --> 14:58.900 And he knows the ending from the beginning. 14:59.380 --> 15:01.200 And he has revealed it to us. 15:01.680 --> 15:07.740 And we have thousands of years of Bible prophecy fulfilled in the minutest detail. 15:08.200 --> 15:12.160 To alleviate any question at all about its authenticity. 15:12.880 --> 15:18.160 Now where did Jesus get the money to pay off the multitude that lined the road into 15:18.160 --> 15:22.440 Jerusalem and hail him as the Messiah when he rode in on a donkey? 15:22.660 --> 15:29.420 The very last beast one would expect a triumphant king to choose. 15:30.080 --> 15:33.560 Precisely as foretold in Zechariah chapter 9 verse 9. 15:34.560 --> 15:41.400 Now here is where I'm going to have to take issue with Dave Hunt. 15:41.400 --> 15:45.320 He says, it was Nissan 10. 15:46.280 --> 15:51.620 According to our calendar, April 6th in AD 32. 15:52.460 --> 15:57.340 The very day the prophets had declared that this amazing event would occur. 15:58.240 --> 16:04.720 According to Dave Hunt, exactly 483 years to the day. 16:05.570 --> 16:13.100 According to the 69 weeks of years as recorded in Daniel chapter 9 verse 25. 16:13.780 --> 16:20.760 After Nehemiah in the 20th year of the reign of Artaxerxes Longimanus. 16:21.860 --> 16:25.040 Who reigned from 465 to 425. 16:25.840 --> 16:29.920 Had received on Nissan the 1st, 445 AD. 16:30.920 --> 16:36.380 Authority to rebuild Jerusalem according to Nehemiah chapter 2 in verse 1. 16:37.300 --> 16:41.760 The fulfillment by Jesus of these and many other messianic prophecies in minute 16:41.760 --> 16:44.040 detail cannot be explained away. 16:44.460 --> 16:46.860 But let me tell you what I take issue with. 16:47.680 --> 16:55.580 Is Dave says that it was Jesus who rode into Jerusalem on the colt, the foal of an 16:55.580 --> 16:56.000 ass. 16:56.000 --> 17:06.880 Exactly 483 years or fully 69 prophetic weeks as recorded in Daniel chapter 9 in 17:06.880 --> 17:07.560 verse 25. 17:07.960 --> 17:09.920 And that cannot be true. 17:10.700 --> 17:12.740 That simply cannot be true. 17:13.760 --> 17:17.500 Jesus fulfilled the 70th week of Daniel. 17:17.660 --> 17:21.380 His ministry began the 70th week of Daniel. 17:21.620 --> 17:25.200 That took place after the 69th week. 17:25.200 --> 17:32.900 Okay, the Bible prophecy Daniel chapter 9 verse 24 through 27 says that there would 17:32.900 --> 17:38.100 be three divisions of this 70 week prophecy. 17:38.620 --> 17:42.680 First, a period of 7 weeks or 49 years. 17:43.560 --> 17:48.780 Succeeded immediately after by 62 prophetic weeks. 17:49.480 --> 17:56.500 Adding those two together you have 69 weeks contiguously and completely. 17:57.220 --> 18:04.180 And then it says, and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and 18:04.180 --> 18:05.320 oblations to cease. 18:06.200 --> 18:15.220 It says after 62 weeks or literally after the 69th week shall Messiah be cut off. 18:15.220 --> 18:19.760 And it says in the midst of the week he will cause the sacrifice and oblations to 18:19.760 --> 18:20.020 cease. 18:20.720 --> 18:22.720 Well, what week are we talking about? 18:23.540 --> 18:25.200 Well, the only one that's left. 18:25.600 --> 18:27.200 The 70th week. 18:27.680 --> 18:29.400 In the midst of the week. 18:29.960 --> 18:30.880 What week? 18:31.240 --> 18:32.500 The 70th week. 18:32.880 --> 18:35.900 The one that comes immediately after the 69th. 18:35.900 --> 18:46.820 Just like the 8th week that came immediately after the 7th week in the 18:46.820 --> 18:47.200 beginning. 18:47.380 --> 18:48.880 Have I confused my listeners? 18:49.540 --> 18:55.980 Look, the entire 70 week prophecy of Daniel was completely and perfectly 18:55.980 --> 19:00.220 fulfilled by the Messiah 2000 years ago. 19:00.480 --> 19:02.600 There's no 2000 year gap. 19:03.260 --> 19:08.540 Jesus did not ride into Jerusalem on the Colt the foal of an ass at the end of the 19:08.540 --> 19:09.520 69th week. 19:10.020 --> 19:11.540 No, that was close. 19:11.700 --> 19:16.980 Very, very, very close to the middle of the 70th week. 19:17.520 --> 19:22.220 He was about to be crucified in the midst of the week. 19:22.880 --> 19:27.440 There was only one week of years remaining to the complete fulfillment of that 19:27.440 --> 19:27.980 prophecy. 19:28.740 --> 19:32.400 And it had to have come after the 62nd week. 19:33.120 --> 19:38.300 Not forgetting that there were previously 7 weeks fulfilled for the rebuilding of 19:38.300 --> 19:38.760 the temple. 19:39.520 --> 19:41.580 So, altogether 69 weeks. 19:41.720 --> 19:45.060 7 and 62 equals 69. 19:46.300 --> 19:55.180 And it says after the 62 weeks shall Messiah be cut off in the midst of the 19:55.180 --> 19:55.540 week. 19:55.540 --> 20:03.500 That, ladies and gentlemen, could not have happened unless it was during midway 20:03.500 --> 20:05.600 through the 70th week of Daniel. 20:06.160 --> 20:11.260 There's no way you can contort those scriptures to come up with a different 20:11.260 --> 20:11.700 answer. 20:12.320 --> 20:13.820 But the world has. 20:14.240 --> 20:15.500 The Vatican has. 20:15.960 --> 20:17.120 The Jesuits have. 20:17.180 --> 20:22.600 And it's called dispensational futurism that lops off that 70th week as though it 20:22.600 --> 20:23.460 didn't happen. 20:23.460 --> 20:26.480 As though Jesus was not the Messiah. 20:26.860 --> 20:29.480 That He did not give up His life. 20:30.240 --> 20:35.460 That He did not, in the midst of the 70th week, cause the sacrifices and oblations 20:35.460 --> 20:37.400 to cease when He gave up His own life. 20:38.180 --> 20:41.840 And now the whole world is waiting for the fulfillment of that 70th week. 20:41.940 --> 20:49.000 Now being completely convinced that the 69th week didn't immediately follow the 20:49.000 --> 20:49.480 70th. 20:49.480 --> 20:53.000 That there is 2000 years gap between the two. 20:53.680 --> 20:56.020 And God is going to finish writing the book. 20:56.780 --> 20:57.620 How confusing. 20:58.060 --> 21:01.200 Why would God be so confusing to His people? 21:01.800 --> 21:03.640 I just don't believe it's true. 21:04.640 --> 21:10.420 And Dave Hunt clearly believes the futurist interpretation of Daniel chapter 21:10.420 --> 21:14.700 9 verse 24 through 27. 21:14.700 --> 21:19.980 And it simply has to be because he hasn't studied it himself. 21:20.140 --> 21:28.200 But just swallowed all the gobbledygook that Rome has been feeding about that 70th 21:28.200 --> 21:28.900 week of Daniel. 21:29.060 --> 21:33.720 All the confusion that the Jesuits and the Roman Catholic Church, the Vatican, 21:34.560 --> 21:36.880 has put upon us. 21:37.600 --> 21:43.400 We need to be good Bereans and go back to Daniel chapter 24 through 27 and see for 21:43.400 --> 21:44.160 ourselves. 21:45.360 --> 21:51.700 You know, we find ourselves trusting the theologians and the historians who have a 21:51.700 --> 21:57.960 vested interest in putting forth this phony futurist Messiah. 21:58.780 --> 22:03.960 And we trust them to count the time from the command to go forth and rebuild 22:03.960 --> 22:07.180 Jerusalem until Messiah the Prince. 22:07.320 --> 22:08.500 Can we trust them? 22:09.200 --> 22:12.580 I would rather read the prophecy of Daniel. 22:13.220 --> 22:19.260 Let the deceivers continue to deceive themselves and try to deceive the whole 22:19.260 --> 22:19.560 world. 22:19.560 --> 22:27.120 But look at the prophecy of Daniel and see its complete fulfillment in Christ 2,000 22:27.120 --> 22:27.860 years ago. 22:28.800 --> 22:35.600 And I'll let them haggle over the days and over the years and over the calendars and 22:35.600 --> 22:38.660 try to come up with jive. 22:41.260 --> 22:48.720 The fulfillment of the 70th week, verse 27 of that prophecy is just too 22:48.720 --> 22:49.880 clear to miss. 22:50.940 --> 22:54.760 And so they have to contrive an ingenious explanation. 22:55.820 --> 22:59.580 And I'll tell you, it stretches credulity now that you think about it. 22:59.580 --> 23:05.820 If you think about it long enough and hard enough, it stretches credulity that they 23:05.820 --> 23:08.060 could deceive anybody with it. 23:08.060 --> 23:16.480 But yet it has deceived the whole world and it is going to damn the Jews and it is 23:16.480 --> 23:19.540 going to damn the Protestants. 23:20.440 --> 23:25.940 This is what we get for listening to Rome instead of listening to Christ and reading 23:25.940 --> 23:27.420 the scriptures for ourselves. 23:28.440 --> 23:30.620 We'll be back right after this. 23:33.940 --> 23:42.320 Hear it first on firstamendmentradio.com and firstamendmentradio.net The book of 23:42.320 --> 23:47.880 Revelation says the spirit of prophecy is the testimony of Jesus

26:07.210 --> 26:10.750 We need your support today at firstamendmentradio.com 26:13.930 --> 26:15.350 Welcome back from the break. 26:15.430 --> 26:18.470 You are listening to the second half hour of inquisition update on 26:18.470 --> 26:20.230 firstamendmentradio.com. 26:20.490 --> 26:23.110 You know, something occurred to me during the break. 26:24.230 --> 26:29.450 We know from Daniel's prophecy that there were to be seven weeks of years from the 26:29.450 --> 26:31.670 going forth of the command to rebuild Jerusalem. 26:32.370 --> 26:35.710 That there would be seven weeks of years for the building of the temple. 26:35.710 --> 26:38.070 That's forty-nine years. 26:38.650 --> 26:40.490 Not forty-eight, not fifty. 26:40.690 --> 26:43.330 Forty-nine years for the rebuilding of the temple. 26:44.230 --> 26:51.190 And what struck me during the break was that there was a time in Jesus' ministry, 26:51.910 --> 26:59.310 when he was talking about the destruction of his temple, that he said, destroy this 26:59.310 --> 27:02.010 temple and in three days I will raise it up again. 27:02.610 --> 27:07.870 And of course the Jews, not being spiritually alive, thought he was speaking 27:07.870 --> 27:09.790 of the temple on Temple Mount. 27:10.410 --> 27:16.690 And they said something to the effect, well it took so many years for this temple 27:16.690 --> 27:21.470 to be built and you are going to tear it down and build it back up in three days? 27:22.430 --> 27:29.150 You know, well how many years did those Jews say it took to build that temple? 27:29.150 --> 27:35.990 I wish I had had time during the break to look up the passage to find out exactly 27:35.990 --> 27:40.010 how many years they said, but I can guess about what they said. 27:40.630 --> 27:45.370 Maybe fifty-six years to build that temple? 27:46.210 --> 27:48.950 Or something close to that, maybe fifty-three years? 27:49.810 --> 27:52.770 They were already confused about Daniel's prophecy. 27:52.990 --> 27:55.790 Somebody confused them about Daniel's prophecy. 27:56.970 --> 28:00.730 Daniel prophesied that it would be forty-nine years for the rebuilding of the 28:00.730 --> 28:01.050 temple. 28:01.730 --> 28:06.070 Why did the Jews say it was fifty-some odd years when they confronted Jesus? 28:07.310 --> 28:10.850 Hey Tom, can I correct you? 28:12.090 --> 28:16.750 Actually the temple was rebuilt fifty-eight years before the decree of 28:16.750 --> 28:19.490 Artaxerxes to restore and rebuild Jerusalem. 28:20.710 --> 28:23.750 And that was accomplished in the first forty-nine years. 28:23.750 --> 28:26.650 Run that by me again slower. 28:27.670 --> 28:35.110 Okay, the temple was completed and the sacrifice resumed fifty-eight years before 28:35.110 --> 28:39.090 the decree of Artaxerxes to restore and rebuild Jerusalem. 28:39.690 --> 28:44.130 It was Jerusalem that was restored and rebuilt in the first forty-nine years. 28:45.010 --> 28:52.010 Alright, what is the significance of the Jews telling Jesus how many years it took 28:52.010 --> 28:53.210 to build the temple then? 28:53.750 --> 28:56.550 I had never really thought about it to tell you the truth. 28:56.890 --> 29:00.990 Well, I guarantee you it's something I'm going to think about because my curiosity 29:00.990 --> 29:01.730 has peaked. 29:01.990 --> 29:09.010 And I'm going to discover how the world got confused about Daniel's prophecy. 29:09.210 --> 29:13.810 How was it that the Jews missed the coming of their Messiah? 29:13.810 --> 29:17.290 They had to have been confused about Daniel's prophecy. 29:18.550 --> 29:22.110 Well, yeah, just like they're confused about Daniel's prophecy today. 29:22.270 --> 29:26.490 You know, the corporate establishment church is and it was then. 29:27.310 --> 29:29.110 Nothing has changed on that front. 29:30.710 --> 29:34.890 Well, maybe I shouldn't have brought it up before I had a chance to investigate it, 29:34.970 --> 29:37.230 but it sure strikes me curious. 29:38.410 --> 29:39.970 Anyway, I'm getting an echo. 29:40.110 --> 29:42.630 I don't know if that's going over the air, so I'm going to drop off. 29:42.630 --> 29:48.630 Okay, all right, we'll drop this for now and I'll do some looking into this myself 29:48.630 --> 29:51.110 and see if I can come to any understanding. 29:51.310 --> 29:56.670 But nonetheless, Dave Hunt believes the popular teaching about the dates. 29:57.790 --> 30:03.030 He cites Nisan 10, which is equivalent to our April 6th, according to the 30:03.030 --> 30:04.090 theologians. 30:04.550 --> 30:10.830 In 32 AD, the very day that the prophets declared that Jesus would ride into 30:10.830 --> 30:11.390 Jerusalem. 30:11.390 --> 30:13.730 And I don't believe this is true. 30:14.470 --> 30:15.410 It can't be true. 30:15.790 --> 30:17.470 No, it cannot be true. 30:18.210 --> 30:21.910 Not if Jesus was the fulfillment of the 70th week of Daniel. 30:22.830 --> 30:27.610 You see, Jesus rode into Jerusalem just prior to his crucifixion on the colt, 30:27.670 --> 30:28.570 the foal of an ass. 30:28.830 --> 30:31.030 That was not during the 69th week. 30:31.190 --> 30:35.350 That was during the week, the 70th week. 30:36.750 --> 30:41.970 And the whole world, even the Jews at that time were deceived about Daniel's 30:41.970 --> 30:42.430 prophecy. 30:42.910 --> 30:48.530 And I have to believe that Satan has made it his business to see to it that the 30:48.530 --> 30:52.650 world will continue to be deceived about Daniel's prophecy. 30:52.990 --> 30:57.610 And it's just as critical for us today to understand that fulfillment of that 30:57.610 --> 31:03.430 prophecy exactly as foretold by Daniel, as given to him by the archangel Gabriel. 31:03.430 --> 31:09.410 It was fulfilled to the letter perfectly 2,000 years ago. 31:09.550 --> 31:12.330 It concerned the Messiah and the Messiah only. 31:12.610 --> 31:16.390 No mention is made anywhere in that prophecy about the Antichrist. 31:17.250 --> 31:24.070 And we are just as deceived about that prophecy today as the Jews were at that 31:24.070 --> 31:24.310 time. 31:24.390 --> 31:27.930 That's why they knew not the time of their visitation. 31:27.930 --> 31:34.630 Because they misunderstood, they'd been lied to about the dates and the time from 31:34.630 --> 31:39.210 the going forth of the command to rebuild Jerusalem to Messiah the Prince. 31:40.090 --> 31:42.450 And they did not see Jesus as the fulfillment. 31:42.610 --> 31:43.830 Now some Jews did. 31:43.950 --> 31:45.370 We know Simeon did. 31:46.150 --> 31:49.930 So Simeon had to have known these prophecies, had known it correctly, 31:50.210 --> 31:54.230 and was not deceived by the lies that were being told among the Jews. 31:54.910 --> 32:00.370 And those same lies, that same deception for the same purpose is being perpetrated 32:00.370 --> 32:06.410 today, so that the world will miss Christ's second coming and accept a false 32:06.410 --> 32:10.910 Christ before the true Christ returns. 32:12.130 --> 32:19.390 Someday I'm going to do this up proper and put it in writing and put it on my 32:19.390 --> 32:24.230 website, so people can go through it line by line, precept upon precept, 32:24.930 --> 32:33.690 and come to an indisputable conclusion about this deception, which I call the 32:33.690 --> 32:35.850 greatest deception since the Garden of Eden. 32:35.850 --> 32:37.590 Look, it has to be. 32:37.690 --> 32:43.230 If it has this much consequence for the Jews, it caused them to reject their own 32:43.230 --> 32:43.710 Messiah. 32:44.590 --> 32:49.290 And it's going to cause Christians of our day to accept a false Messiah. 32:49.890 --> 32:52.910 There cannot be a greater deception than this. 32:53.910 --> 32:58.630 And I think it's imperative that we get to the bottom of this thing. 32:59.310 --> 33:05.570 And not being a regular listener to Nicholas's program, because of other 33:05.570 --> 33:09.570 commitments in my life, maybe, Nicholas, if you're still there, 33:09.650 --> 33:11.490 have you pinned all this down already? 33:12.530 --> 33:13.590 Yes, I have. 33:14.710 --> 33:16.170 Well, I'd like to read it. 33:16.290 --> 33:17.270 I'd like to see it. 33:17.410 --> 33:18.670 I'll send you a copy. 33:19.450 --> 33:19.850 Okay. 33:20.190 --> 33:20.550 Alright. 33:20.550 --> 33:27.920 Well, certainly, nonetheless, the point is made that Dave Hunt was a futurist. 33:28.190 --> 33:33.250 Despite his knowledge about Rome's role in the world today, in the New World Order, 33:34.210 --> 33:41.470 despite his knowledge about how ghastly atrocious it is that the Protestants have 33:41.470 --> 33:47.870 repudiated the Protestant Reformation, and rejoined the Roman Catholic Church in 33:47.870 --> 33:55.870 ecumenical agreements, Dave Hunt knows the role that the Vatican is going to play in 33:55.870 --> 33:56.870 this New World Order. 33:57.750 --> 34:01.450 Like I said yesterday, I wish Dave Hunt was still alive so I could talk to him 34:01.450 --> 34:02.130 about this. 34:03.110 --> 34:06.770 But nonetheless, the world is deceived. 34:06.950 --> 34:08.530 The whole world is deceived. 34:09.410 --> 34:11.410 That prophecy is fulfilled as well. 34:12.190 --> 34:16.770 And I'm well on the way to understanding fully that deception. 34:17.350 --> 34:21.050 And I'll share it with my listeners as soon as I can comprehend it. 34:21.970 --> 34:23.210 Now, we're going to continue. 34:23.470 --> 34:26.610 I could stay on this all day, but I'd be repeating myself. 34:28.450 --> 34:29.970 Anyway, Dave continues. 34:30.210 --> 34:32.950 He talks about the missing body in the empty tomb. 34:33.550 --> 34:38.950 He's still discrediting this phony movie and book that were put out. 34:38.950 --> 34:44.710 Must have been great entertainment for the atheists and the agnostics and the 34:44.710 --> 34:48.170 God-haters in the world, which is the vast majority. 34:49.290 --> 34:51.550 It was called the Passover Plot. 34:52.450 --> 34:58.210 Now he says, furthermore, if Jesus had successfully plotted to get himself 34:58.210 --> 35:03.970 crucified on the precise date and time that was prophesied, in spite of the 35:03.970 --> 35:08.970 determination of the rabbis to the contrary, see Matthew chapter 26 and verse 35:08.970 --> 35:15.250 5 and Mark chapter 14 and verse 2, Jesus still had to rise from the dead. 35:16.070 --> 35:20.370 No Passover plot, no matter how many conspirators were involved, could 35:20.370 --> 35:21.390 accomplish that. 35:22.310 --> 35:29.050 A fake resurrection wouldn't be sufficient basis for Christ's followers to launch 35:29.050 --> 35:29.850 Christianity. 35:29.850 --> 35:37.350 Look, why would they subject themselves to so much persecution on a lie? 35:38.070 --> 35:40.190 They knew Jesus rose from the dead. 35:40.310 --> 35:43.950 They saw him, just as the Bible records. 35:45.010 --> 35:49.810 No one would subject themselves to the persecution that were suffered by the 35:49.810 --> 35:54.410 early church members on a lie. 35:54.410 --> 36:01.250 Had Jesus not resurrected from the dead, there would not be any Christianity today. 36:02.070 --> 36:04.210 But Jesus did rise from the dead. 36:04.690 --> 36:06.570 The resurrection is true. 36:07.570 --> 36:12.050 Now Dave continues, he says, only if he really died and came back to life would 36:12.050 --> 36:17.030 they have the motivation and the courage to proclaim his gospel in the face of 36:17.030 --> 36:18.850 persecution and martyrdom. 36:19.690 --> 36:22.350 Roman soldiers didn't sleep on duty. 36:22.350 --> 36:27.570 Had they done so while the disciples had stolen the body as it was claimed, 36:27.990 --> 36:30.610 they would have been on the crosses the next day. 36:31.010 --> 36:35.530 And so would the disciples for the crime of breaking that Roman seal on the tomb. 36:36.390 --> 36:40.590 And if the disciples had stolen the body and somehow managed to keep it a secret, 36:41.170 --> 36:42.990 why would they die for a lie? 36:43.830 --> 36:48.290 They were such cowards that none of them had been willing to die for what they had 36:48.290 --> 36:49.750 once believed to be the truth. 36:49.750 --> 36:57.330 Yet, they almost all went to their deaths as martyrs, declaring to the very end that 36:57.330 --> 37:02.590 they were eyewitnesses of the fact that Jesus had risen from the dead. 37:03.450 --> 37:07.730 None of them tried to save his life in exchange for revealing where the body had 37:07.730 --> 37:08.230 been hidden. 37:09.070 --> 37:17.150 There is simply no way to explain the undeniably empty tomb except by the 37:17.150 --> 37:17.850 resurrection. 37:17.850 --> 37:21.190 Any other teaching is just simply untenable. 37:22.170 --> 37:26.490 Of course, the God-haters would have us believe that they stole the body, 37:26.590 --> 37:31.030 when it would have been completely impossible for that to have happened. 37:31.810 --> 37:36.050 Now, neither Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam, or any of the world's pagan 37:36.050 --> 37:40.910 religions make any pretense that its founder is still alive. 37:41.370 --> 37:46.110 For Christianity, however, the resurrection is the very heart of its 37:46.110 --> 37:46.550 gospel. 37:46.550 --> 37:52.330 If Christ did not rise from the dead, then the whole thing is a fraud. 37:53.210 --> 37:59.330 Nor did Jesus tell his disciples to go to far-off Siberia or South Africa to preach 37:59.330 --> 38:02.970 his resurrection, where no one could challenge that claim. 38:02.970 --> 38:10.050 He told them to begin in Jerusalem, where had he not risen from the dead, 38:10.890 --> 38:17.270 a simple short walk to the grave just outside the city wall could have proven 38:17.270 --> 38:19.290 that he was still dead. 38:20.150 --> 38:22.510 Nobody made that short walk. 38:23.230 --> 38:28.150 Now, how the rabbis and the Roman rulers would have loved to discredit Christianity 38:28.150 --> 38:30.590 before it could ever get momentum. 38:31.250 --> 38:35.770 The surest way would have been to put the dead body of Jesus on display. 38:36.530 --> 38:38.050 But they could not. 38:38.810 --> 38:42.750 The closely guarded grave was suddenly empty. 38:43.710 --> 38:44.710 Praise God. 38:45.930 --> 38:56.170 Now, in further explosion of this silly movie that is believed by the God-haters, 38:57.150 --> 39:02.430 Dave is going to talk about Saul of Tarsus now, the Apostle Paul. 39:03.270 --> 39:07.350 He says, the proofs for the resurrection are numerous and irrefutable. 39:08.270 --> 39:12.990 But having dealt with them elsewhere, we will mention only one, a proof often 39:12.990 --> 39:13.550 overlooked. 39:14.300 --> 39:21.870 What Christ had indeed risen from the dead is the only explanation for the fact that 39:21.870 --> 39:28.470 Saul of Tarsus, the chief enemy of Christianity formerly, became its chief 39:28.470 --> 39:29.090 apostle. 39:29.970 --> 39:36.790 A popular young rabbi, Saul was on his way to great honors for his leadership role in 39:36.790 --> 39:43.650 pursuing and persecuting this aberrant sect with arrest, imprisonment, 39:43.830 --> 39:44.470 and martyrdom. 39:45.410 --> 39:49.110 Then suddenly, he became one of the despised and persecuted Christians 39:49.110 --> 39:49.730 himself. 39:50.270 --> 39:54.150 And for this, he was repeatedly arrested, beaten, and imprisoned. 39:54.930 --> 39:58.730 On one occasion, he was even stoned and left for dead. 39:59.590 --> 40:01.410 Finally, he was beheaded. 40:02.150 --> 40:10.290 This stunning turnabout made no sense, unless Paul was a true apostle of the 40:10.290 --> 40:11.410 risen Christ. 40:12.370 --> 40:16.750 Why voluntarily trade popularity for suffering and eventual martyrdom? 40:17.610 --> 40:22.210 Paul explained that he had met the resurrected Christ and that the one who 40:22.210 --> 40:28.790 had died for the sins of the world was alive and had revealed himself to him. 40:28.790 --> 40:33.570 That testimony, however, was not sufficient in itself to prove that Christ 40:33.570 --> 40:34.770 was indeed alive. 40:35.250 --> 40:36.490 Something more was needed. 40:37.450 --> 40:39.690 No one could doubt Paul's sincerity. 40:40.390 --> 40:44.590 That was demonstrated by his willingness to suffer and even die for Christ. 40:45.450 --> 40:50.750 A sincere belief, however, that Christ was alive was not sufficient proof. 40:51.530 --> 40:57.750 It was possible that Paul had hallucinated and simply imagined that Christ had 40:57.750 --> 41:01.230 appeared to him and spoken to him and was indeed alive. 41:02.050 --> 41:07.230 The Roman governors Felix and Festus, as well as King Agrippa, heard Paul's 41:07.230 --> 41:11.670 account of this supernatural encounter and were convinced that he was sincere, 41:12.170 --> 41:17.650 but deluded, as recorded in Acts chapter 24, verse 26. 41:17.650 --> 41:21.890 That explanation, however, did not fit the facts. 41:22.870 --> 41:27.110 Paul's sudden intimacy with Christ's teachings provided proof of the 41:27.110 --> 41:32.210 resurrection that could not be explained away by any other means. 41:33.070 --> 41:34.670 Here's the conclusive evidence. 41:34.990 --> 41:40.610 Paul, who had not known Christ before he was crucified, was suddenly the chief 41:40.610 --> 41:44.670 authority on what Christ had previously taught his inner circle of disciples. 41:45.750 --> 41:47.070 He had to have met him. 41:47.070 --> 41:51.950 The apostles, who had been personally instructed by Christ for several years, 41:52.310 --> 41:57.690 had to acknowledge that their one-time enemy, Paul, without consulting any of 41:57.690 --> 42:03.970 them, knew all that Christ had taught them, and indeed had even deeper insights 42:03.970 --> 42:04.790 than they. 42:05.650 --> 42:11.570 When Paul rebuked Peter for going astray, the latter submitted to his correction. 42:11.570 --> 42:15.470 See Galatians chapter 2, verses 11-14. 42:16.070 --> 42:20.770 How is it that one of Jesus' own disciples, one of his own apostles, 42:21.810 --> 42:25.510 would stand to be corrected by Paul if he was a fraud? 42:27.210 --> 42:34.290 Quote, I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you. 42:34.610 --> 42:35.050 Unquote. 42:35.810 --> 42:38.750 First Corinthians chapter 11, verse 23. 42:39.770 --> 42:44.950 And that's how Paul began his explanation to the Corinthian church of what happened 42:44.950 --> 42:49.510 at the Last Supper, and what Christ had taught his disciples on that occasion. 42:49.510 --> 42:54.550 Yet Paul had not been present, nor had he consulted any of those who had 42:54.550 --> 42:55.050 been there. 42:55.750 --> 43:02.650 Quote, I conferred not with flesh and blood, neither went I up to Jerusalem to 43:02.650 --> 43:08.110 them which were apostles before me, but I went into Arabia. 43:08.830 --> 43:11.770 Galatians chapter 1, verses 16-17. 43:12.830 --> 43:15.210 That was Paul's sworn testimony. 43:15.980 --> 43:21.270 I have to ask the question, where in Arabia did Paul go? 43:21.350 --> 43:22.790 The scripture doesn't say. 43:23.810 --> 43:28.070 And I'm human, I have a tendency to speculate. 43:29.150 --> 43:31.450 It gets me into trouble occasionally. 43:32.130 --> 43:34.030 But I can't resist the temptation. 43:35.030 --> 43:43.170 I've since learned that what we've been told always in our lives of Mount Sinai is 43:43.170 --> 43:44.770 actually in Arabia. 43:45.490 --> 43:50.910 It's called Jebel El-Lawz, the Mountain of the Law. 43:51.950 --> 43:55.910 It's in Saudi Arabia, right across the Red Sea. 43:56.870 --> 44:04.270 And they even found the land bridge that the Jews passed across on their flight out 44:04.270 --> 44:04.690 of Egypt. 44:05.150 --> 44:10.510 They even found the pillars that were stood up in representation of the 12 44:10.510 --> 44:13.570 tribes of Judah, or the 12 tribes of Israel. 44:14.350 --> 44:18.950 And the pillars are stationed on both sides of their crossing to mark the path 44:18.950 --> 44:19.590 that they took. 44:19.590 --> 44:22.290 The top of that mountain is burnt. 44:22.590 --> 44:23.270 It's black. 44:23.370 --> 44:25.690 It's unique in all that other mountain range. 44:26.610 --> 44:28.830 There is a rock that is split in two. 44:29.650 --> 44:32.370 And it is clearly worn by water. 44:33.310 --> 44:38.330 The rocks are rounded, polished, as if they'd been for years in a stream. 44:38.990 --> 44:48.630 Too much evidence that if Paul went to Arabia, maybe he went back to the Mountain 44:48.630 --> 44:49.310 of God. 44:49.850 --> 44:53.830 Where Moses got his instruction from the Lord. 44:55.170 --> 44:57.190 I'll leave others to speculate. 44:57.930 --> 44:59.990 Like I say, it may get me in trouble. 45:00.250 --> 45:02.950 But Paul does admit that he went to Arabia. 45:03.290 --> 45:05.870 And I have to question, where would he go? 45:05.870 --> 45:10.630 Where in Arabia would he go to consult the Creator? 45:11.530 --> 45:13.070 I have my guess. 45:14.050 --> 45:16.450 Jabal al-Lawz in Saudi Arabia. 45:16.910 --> 45:21.050 Where Moses saw the burning bush, and where he received the law from 45:21.050 --> 45:22.030 Almighty God. 45:22.450 --> 45:24.430 From Jesus, the Creator. 45:25.330 --> 45:30.890 He says that he was suddenly the chief apostle and authority on what Christ had 45:30.890 --> 45:31.290 taught. 45:31.290 --> 45:36.010 Could be explained in no other way than that he had been instructed by the 45:36.010 --> 45:37.170 resurrected Christ. 45:37.270 --> 45:38.710 Exactly as he claimed. 45:39.690 --> 45:44.270 Without consulting any of those who had been Christ's disciples during his earthly 45:44.270 --> 45:44.850 ministry. 45:45.590 --> 45:49.170 Paul had become the chief authority on Christian doctrine. 45:49.510 --> 45:51.550 As all the church had to acknowledge. 45:52.430 --> 45:55.290 He wrote most of the New Testament epistles. 45:55.290 --> 46:03.570 You know, that's why Paul is attacked so vehemently today by certain atheists and 46:03.570 --> 46:04.630 God-haters. 46:05.250 --> 46:08.670 Many of whom I'm even familiar with on amateur radio. 46:08.850 --> 46:10.730 They just detest Paul. 46:11.410 --> 46:11.750 Why? 46:12.530 --> 46:14.530 Because he wrote most of the New Testament. 46:14.950 --> 46:18.830 And particularly, because he condemned sodomy. 46:19.470 --> 46:22.970 That's why my amateur radio friends hate him so much. 46:22.970 --> 46:26.410 He wrote most of the New Testament epistles. 46:26.870 --> 46:31.710 Quote, I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me 46:31.710 --> 46:33.810 is not of man. 46:34.590 --> 46:40.570 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the 46:40.570 --> 46:42.970 revelation of Jesus Christ. 46:43.630 --> 46:44.070 Unquote. 46:44.790 --> 46:49.670 Galatians chapter 1 verses 11 and 12 was Paul's solemn testimony. 46:50.670 --> 46:55.610 There's no other explanation than that Christ had indeed been resurrected. 46:56.270 --> 47:01.250 And had personally instructed Paul after his resurrection. 47:02.190 --> 47:08.490 So what have the critics to say about this phony Passover plot movie and book? 47:08.890 --> 47:13.630 I can think of a few amateur radio operators that I would love to read this 47:13.630 --> 47:16.530 portion of the book for their hearing. 47:16.930 --> 47:19.030 And see how they deal with this. 47:20.470 --> 47:25.010 Anyway, Dave Hunt says, we have reason for confidence. 47:26.070 --> 47:29.550 The fulfillment of the prophecies mentioned above, as well as scores of 47:29.550 --> 47:34.090 others in the life, death and resurrection of Christ, prove beyond any possible doubt 47:34.090 --> 47:39.210 that He is the Messiah of Israel, the Savior of the world. 47:39.410 --> 47:40.790 Praise His holy name. 47:41.810 --> 47:46.210 No one can examine the facts and remain an honest doubter. 47:47.090 --> 47:48.850 I agree with Dave on this one. 47:48.850 --> 47:51.530 There are no honest doubters. 47:52.090 --> 47:55.810 I've heard them and I've talked to them for years on amateur radio. 47:56.810 --> 48:05.030 They'll twist common sense to denounce or to discredit Paul and the gospel of Jesus 48:05.030 --> 48:05.610 Christ. 48:06.450 --> 48:09.170 There are no honest doubters. 48:09.970 --> 48:14.710 He says, those who refuse to believe in the face of such overwhelming evidence are 48:14.710 --> 48:15.810 without excuse. 48:16.810 --> 48:21.590 We've taken these few pages to establish the validity of biblical prophecy for a 48:21.590 --> 48:22.090 purpose. 48:23.150 --> 48:27.690 Having seen that what the Bible prophesied concerning past events was fulfilled with 48:27.690 --> 48:34.870 100% accuracy, we have valid reason for believing that what it tells us concerning 48:34.870 --> 48:37.870 the future will likewise be fulfilled. 48:38.710 --> 48:44.090 With that confidence then, we can now consider the insight into the future given 48:44.090 --> 48:49.970 to us in Revelation chapter 17 and 18 and address the important questions of the 48:49.970 --> 48:53.890 identity of the woman riding the beast. 48:54.450 --> 48:59.110 First of all, our attention must be directed to the beast itself. 48:59.770 --> 49:01.050 The beast itself. 49:01.830 --> 49:07.010 Now, we've concluded chapter 3, we'll continue briefly with chapter 4 49:07.010 --> 49:08.330 before the end of the program. 49:08.330 --> 49:10.270 But it begins with a quote from Daniel. 49:10.430 --> 49:16.630 This from Daniel chapter 7, verses 3 through 7, and then verse 24. 49:17.210 --> 49:20.690 It says, four great beasts came up from the sea. 49:21.470 --> 49:28.290 The first was like a lion, a second like a bear, and lo, another like a leopard. 49:28.290 --> 49:32.870 And behold, a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible. 49:33.510 --> 49:39.510 It had ten horns, and the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings. 49:40.270 --> 49:41.790 Ten kings. 49:42.850 --> 49:45.250 Was Rome ever ruled by ten kings? 49:46.290 --> 49:49.750 I can tell you it is today in the new world order. 49:50.910 --> 49:55.750 We'll talk more about Bible prophecy next time on Inquisition Update. 49:55.750 --> 50:01.110 Beginning chapter 4, unfolding the revelation of Jesus Christ. 50:02.270 --> 50:05.150 The book, again, is A Woman Rides a Beast. 50:05.630 --> 50:08.570 The author is the recently deceased Dave Hunt. 50:09.170 --> 50:10.570 We'll continue with the book tomorrow. 50:10.690 --> 50:12.630 If you'd like to email me, do so. 50:13.070 -->

52:19.850 --> 52:23.890 You will notice that there are few commercials on this radio network. 52:24.550 --> 52:26.030 There's a good reason for that. 52:26.530 --> 52:31.010 Corporate advertising dollars come with strings that limit program content. 52:31.570 --> 52:36.090 So without your help, these programs cannot continue on satellite, internet, 52:36.310 --> 52:38.610 or our several

54:15.010 has their eyes on Israel, waiting and watching to see when the Third Temple will 54:15.010 --> 54:15.790 begin to be built. 54:16.250 --> 54:21.330 The plans are drawn, the Jewish people are eager, most Evangelical Christians today 54:21.330 --> 54:24.330 believe that the rapture will happen before the Third Temple is built. 54:24.630 --> 54:26.310 Hi, I'm Michael Eugene. 54:26.870 --> 54:29.490 I was taught that Daniel's 70th week was in the future. 54:30.150 --> 54:31.750 Is that really what the Bible teaches? 54:32.430 --> 54:35.350 Have we searched the Scriptures and found this to be true? 54:36.050 --> 54:39.690 Why is it so important for a re-established Israel to build a Third 54:39.690 --> 54:40.550 Temple in Jerusalem? 54:41.190 --> 54:45.790 Is it necessary to build a temple on the same location already occupied by the Dome 54:45.790 --> 54:46.250 of the Rock? 54:46.250 --> 54:50.830 Is it necessary for sacrifices to take place in the temple on Temple Mount? 54:51.330 --> 54:54.630 Is there really a rapture followed by seven years of tribulation? 54:55.450 --> 54:56.890 What is the New Testament Temple? 54:57.690 --> 54:59.850 Can we identify history and prophecy? 55:00.730 --> 55:03.610 Who is the first beast in Revelation chapter 13? 55:04.330 --> 55:06.850 Who are the seven kings in Revelation 17? 55:07.550 --> 55:10.910 I have asked all these questions, and I have found Nicholas Arthur's new 55:10.910 --> 55:16.050 book, When the Third Temple is Built, answers all these questions and more using 55:16.050 --> 55:17.690 Scripture to interpret Scripture. 55:18.290 --> 55:21.770 The Bible says that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private 55:21.770 --> 55:22.510 interpretation. 55:23.330 --> 55:26.190 Nicholas shows us in his new book, When the Third Temple is Built, 55:26.570 --> 55:30.870 how the Bible interprets prophecy and not man's private interpretation. 55:31.870 --> 55:40.970 Visit crosstheborder.org to get your
