00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,760
On today's podcast, I'm going to do something just a little bit different.
2
00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:08,200
I was watching recently a live stream from Grace Community Church Woodlands, their Sunday
3
00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:13,200
morning service, where Pastor Steve Riggle, a long-time friend, had a mutual friend of
4
00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:17,940
ours, Pastor Jim Garlo, sharing about prophetic things that are happening in the Scriptures
5
00:00:17,940 --> 00:00:19,760
and context to today.
6
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:25,240
Pastor Jim Garlo was sharing points in Scripture in the context to prophetic significance to
7
00:00:25,240 --> 00:00:28,240
what's happening in the world and what we should be doing to prepare.
8
00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:32,200
As you know, my heart is to prepare people for the coming of the Lord with a message
9
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:34,560
of consecration, commitment, and action.
10
00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:36,520
So intrigued me listening to the message.
11
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:40,160
And then in the middle of the message, he introduced Byron Stinson.
12
00:00:40,160 --> 00:00:43,240
Byron Stinson is a team lead for Bona Israel.
13
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:46,880
Throughout Scripture and throughout history, you've probably heard about the importance
14
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:48,200
of the Red Heifer.
15
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:49,580
Many of us have heard about it.
16
00:00:49,580 --> 00:00:53,180
We've heard about the importance of the Red Heifer in Biblical history as well as the
17
00:00:53,180 --> 00:00:54,880
future of Israel.
18
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:57,360
And yet it is a reality today.
19
00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:03,040
Byron Stinson and his team have literally taken five Red Heifers that have been checked
20
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:09,480
out by rabbis, have been checked out by experts, and now those Red Heifers are in Israel.
21
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:15,400
The message by Jim Garlo and Byron Stinson was so intriguing to me, so enlightening to
22
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:21,120
me that I literally texted Pastor Steve Riggle and said, Pastor Steve, can I have permission
23
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:25,120
to use portions of this message for my podcast?
24
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:30,000
And then I ran into Pastor Jim Garlo at the National Religious Broadcasters and got his
25
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:31,000
permission.
26
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:32,120
He said, absolutely.
27
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:37,360
And then I was introduced over lunch meeting to meet with Byron Stinson, the team lead
28
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:43,480
for Bona Israel and the one who's taken these Red Heifers from Texas to Israel.
29
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:46,120
And so there's a Texas Israel connection.
30
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:51,580
So on today's A Word in Season with Doug Stringer and friends, listen to this message by Pastor
31
00:01:51,580 --> 00:01:54,800
Jim Garlo and Byron Stinson.
32
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:59,200
You may want to take out your Bible and go through the various scriptures in the very
33
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:04,200
points that are made because it really is enlightening to the context of where we are
34
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:08,120
in the world today in preparation for the coming of the Lord.
35
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:09,640
I want to tell you about Israel.
36
00:02:09,640 --> 00:02:16,000
The sermon I've preached, I've never preached before until the first service this morning.
37
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:17,520
So this is very fresh information.
38
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:22,000
I've talked about pieces of it, but I've never put it together in this particular way.
39
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:23,820
Let me pose a question.
40
00:02:23,820 --> 00:02:28,160
When God gets ready to show up on planet Earth and the person of Jesus, what did he do?
41
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,520
He gave a lot of indicators.
42
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:35,400
They're called prophecy so that when Jesus came, when God came to Earth in the form of
43
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,460
a man, people would know who he was.
44
00:02:38,460 --> 00:02:39,460
How'd that work out?
45
00:02:39,460 --> 00:02:42,120
A lot didn't seem to recognize him.
46
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:46,840
And so when he gets ready to come a second time, what does he do?
47
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:52,840
He has a lot of indicators, flashing lights, prophecy and other things suddenly being
48
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:54,880
revealed to give an indication.
49
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:56,640
Hey, get ready.
50
00:02:56,640 --> 00:02:59,920
I'm coming again.
51
00:02:59,920 --> 00:03:07,160
I'm going to fly through 11 things very rapidly that have happened in recent years in Israel,
52
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:11,240
all of which I think are indicators of what is coming.
53
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:17,120
This is Israel revealing her secrets to get you ready for the soon coming King.
54
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,080
I'm going to take you up north to Samaria.
55
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,640
Don't ever use the word West Bank.
56
00:03:21,640 --> 00:03:24,160
Call it Samaria and Judea.
57
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:25,520
That's the proper terms.
58
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,540
I want you to meet a man named Tommy Waller.
59
00:03:28,540 --> 00:03:31,380
He was working with FedEx in Tennessee.
60
00:03:31,380 --> 00:03:36,500
He felt called to move his family, give up his job and move to the rural areas and have
61
00:03:36,500 --> 00:03:42,200
Amish farmers teach he and his 11 children how to farm.
62
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:47,760
They learned how to farm and then God called them to Israel, to Samaria, to go work for
63
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:54,560
the Jewish farmers free, help prune the fields, the vineyards, help plant the vines and harvest
64
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:56,480
them as well.
65
00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:01,680
Little did he realize at the time, I presume that he was fulfilling Jeremiah's prophecy
66
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:09,080
from 2700 years ago, which says I'll plant vineyards on the hills of Samaria.
67
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:10,960
Now, let's stop for a moment.
68
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:15,040
The hills of Samaria are depleted soil wise.
69
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:18,320
I come originally, I live in San Diego by originally from the farms of Kansas.
70
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:25,040
I understand about farming topsoil, about 15 feet of topsoil has been eroded by wind
71
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:30,040
and water because of the mismanagement for the last thousand years of the Arabs.
72
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:33,760
And so here's the Jewish people who finally had their land in 1948, which in itself is
73
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:34,760
a miracle.
74
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:37,400
That's why this book is called Jerusalem, the miracle.
75
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:43,040
It's truly is a miracle that came back into existence after almost 2000 years, but you
76
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,560
get the land back and it's horrifically depleted.
77
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:47,360
It can't produce anything.
78
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,960
But all these prophecies are that it's going to blossom like a rose.
79
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:52,520
It's a desert.
80
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:56,720
But you go there today and you see what's happened through irrigation, drip irrigation.
81
00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:57,720
It's blossoming.
82
00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,000
The desert is blossoming like a rose.
83
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,040
But the hills of Samaria, they're going to have vineyards on them.
84
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,200
The farmers are going to have vineyards.
85
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:10,200
And the no tree, that's the Hebrew word for the watchman is the word.
86
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:11,560
They're going to cry out from the hills.
87
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,320
Come, let's go up to Zion.
88
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:19,000
And that's exactly what the Waller family now with 11 kids and 44 grandchildren have
89
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:20,000
done.
90
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,400
And now 500 people have joined them and fly in.
91
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:28,480
You could be one to fly in and go work there in the harvest fields and helping plant and
92
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:30,720
prune and harvest the vineyards.
93
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,900
That's Tommy Waller in the upper right hand picture.
94
00:05:33,900 --> 00:05:37,520
That's one of his many sons in the bottom left hand corner.
95
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:44,520
And now it's been transferred into a beautiful, beautiful vineyard all over the hills of Samaria.
96
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:52,400
That is a prophecy being fulfilled right before our eyes because the word no dream watchman
97
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:59,720
is the present day word for Christian, the Christians coming back to help harvest the
98
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:05,320
grapes on the hills of Samaria prophesied by Jeremiah.
99
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:12,240
There's another one, Isaiah 49, Isaiah seven, that once again, the pastures will return.
100
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,000
Now remember the soil is depleted.
101
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:19,900
It's so depleted that when agronomists did analysis of the soil, when they start planting
102
00:06:19,900 --> 00:06:24,600
the vineyards, they said, this will never be able to produce decent grapes for decent
103
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:25,600
wine.
104
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:31,320
However, because God said it's going to produce there and because that's on Mount Gerizim
105
00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:32,320
is where they live.
106
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:36,000
The Mount of Blessing is Mount Gerizim, Mount of Ebal is Mount of Curses.
107
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:42,320
There are Mount Gerizim, the Mount of Blessing that's mentioned in your Bible several times.
108
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:47,680
And from that soil, agronomists that couldn't produce anything produced grapes, which were
109
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:52,280
made into wine, which were entered into a competition in Paris, France, and they won
110
00:06:52,280 --> 00:06:58,920
number one in the world because of God's blessing the mountains exactly like he said he would
111
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:02,320
2,700 years ago.
112
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:06,560
But along comes the statement you're going to have cattle on there, sheep, oxen.
113
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:07,840
They're going to be on those hills once again.
114
00:07:07,840 --> 00:07:09,900
That means you have to have pasture.
115
00:07:09,900 --> 00:07:11,120
There's not much pasture there.
116
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:12,320
Again, the top soil is gone.
117
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:13,920
It's just rocky.
118
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:20,680
But the Waller family bringing back in cattle right now and by the organic matter, that's
119
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:22,960
a nice way of saying cow manure.
120
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,240
It's replenishing the soil.
121
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:28,240
You never thought you'd hear a sermon on cow manure, did you?
122
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:33,400
But it's replenishing the soil and restoring it to the vibrancy it once had.
123
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:38,000
A prophecy 2,700 years ago happening right now.
124
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,000
There's another one, Jacob's spotted sheep.
125
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:44,400
A young woman named Jenna Lewinsky, a friend of ours in Canada, noticed all the spotted
126
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:47,800
sheep across Canada, had them DNA tested, discovered.
127
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:48,800
They're part from the Levant.
128
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:52,680
They're from the area of Laban, Jacob's father-in-law.
129
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:58,000
When Jacob took his sheep, the spotted sheep that went with him, they're from their descendants
130
00:07:58,000 --> 00:07:59,000
of that.
131
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:03,680
Well, the scripture says in Jeremiah 31 that once again, not only the people will come
132
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,120
back to Israel, which is happening.
133
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:10,160
When I was there my first time in Israel in 1981, population was two million.
134
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:11,920
Go there now, it's over nine million.
135
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:13,000
The people are coming back.
136
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:17,640
The Jews are coming back and occupying it just like it was prophesied.
137
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:19,900
But so would the flocks.
138
00:08:19,900 --> 00:08:24,740
And Jacob spotted sheep that were dispersed, the Hespera, as were the people.
139
00:08:24,740 --> 00:08:30,920
And now they're coming back into the land in accordance with Jeremiah 31 and other passages.
140
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:37,840
And so you see Jacob spotted sheep having been returned to the land exactly as the prophet
141
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:38,840
said.
142
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:40,820
Or go to the Dead Sea.
143
00:08:40,820 --> 00:08:45,840
The Dead Sea has along it, strangely enough, some green foliage, some plants, some fish,
144
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:46,840
some birds.
145
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:48,080
Why is that?
146
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:54,440
Because Zechariah 14, 8 says that one of these days, Jesus is going to return and he's going
147
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:56,400
to put his feet on the Mount of Olives.
148
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:58,800
It's going to split north and south.
149
00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:02,760
An aquifer of water is going to pour into the Mediterranean Sea to the west and to the
150
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:03,760
east.
151
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,800
It's going to flow into the Dead Sea and the Dead Sea is going to be living again from
152
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:12,440
aquifers of water flowing under the mountains of Judea, from Jerusalem.
153
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:14,520
And it's already started happening.
154
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:18,600
This is an appetizer course or an hors d'oeuvres of the main course.
155
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:20,200
This is along the Sea of Galilee.
156
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,020
I shot these pictures myself along the highway.
157
00:09:23,020 --> 00:09:27,200
And all this green foliage is cropping up and the birds have brought in fish eggs and
158
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:28,200
these fresh streams.
159
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,240
Where's that water coming from?
160
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:31,680
From Jerusalem.
161
00:09:31,680 --> 00:09:37,040
Precisely as it was said, it's going to happen, occurring in our time.
162
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,080
Or let me take you on a different journey.
163
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:40,520
These are shofars.
164
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:42,400
Robert Winger's in the picture there.
165
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:49,000
He's the only person I'm aware of or I know of can play two shofars at the same time,
166
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:56,040
two triple twist shofars and his Amishur is so exceptional, he gets different pitches
167
00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,520
out of each one so they harmonize.
168
00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,440
He has a ministry called Shofar So Great.
169
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:07,400
It all started when Rosemary took him to Israel and a group of pastors.
170
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:08,400
He wasn't a pastor.
171
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:11,720
At that time he was working with Monster Drink.
172
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:13,260
He was in that business.
173
00:10:13,260 --> 00:10:17,700
He's the one that helped create Vav, Vav, Vav, the symbol of Monster Drink.
174
00:10:17,700 --> 00:10:19,560
They did it kind of as a joke.
175
00:10:19,560 --> 00:10:22,280
That is 666 by the way.
176
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:24,180
They did that intentionally.
177
00:10:24,180 --> 00:10:30,040
Now 1 Thessalonians 416 tells us that the Trump of God is going to sound before the
178
00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:32,160
King returns, Jesus.
179
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:35,440
The Trump of God does not refer to Donald Trump.
180
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:41,280
It refers to the trumpet of the time, which is the shofar.
181
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:49,040
How do you explain that this tiny little piece of real estate, smaller than New Jersey,
182
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:54,160
a thousands of miles away from here and yet somebody in your congregation on the third
183
00:10:54,160 --> 00:11:01,800
row stood and sounded, he put his lips to the horn from a ram or a sheep or a goat and
184
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:05,840
he sounded in your church service and none of you thought it was strange.
185
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:11,560
How is it you can explain that people are flocking to buy shofars from all over the
186
00:11:11,560 --> 00:11:12,560
world?
187
00:11:12,560 --> 00:11:13,560
Why would they do that?
188
00:11:13,560 --> 00:11:14,560
They're not accordions.
189
00:11:14,560 --> 00:11:17,080
I mean that's such a popular instrument, right?
190
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:19,720
They're not trombones or guitars.
191
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:21,600
But shofars.
192
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:28,720
We've taken many, many people to meet with Robert Winger and they flock to buy his shofars.
193
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:33,260
Greg Berg, who's here, he's a part of our board on Well Verse, he suggested, Jim, let's
194
00:11:33,260 --> 00:11:35,400
offer shofars through our ministry.
195
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:37,800
I said, Craig, I don't think for many people will buy them.
196
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:38,800
He said, yes, they will.
197
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:40,880
I said, okay, we'll offer them.
198
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:43,920
We offer all kinds, they bottom like crazy.
199
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:48,520
And even all the way, we offer them all the way to the most expensive, $2,500 for shofars,
200
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:53,080
these beautiful ones, remarkable tone out tone quality.
201
00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:54,560
And people wanted those.
202
00:11:54,560 --> 00:11:55,560
Why?
203
00:11:55,560 --> 00:11:56,560
What's going on?
204
00:11:56,560 --> 00:12:02,800
There's something in the human heart that has an anticipation of the coming of the king.
205
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:07,040
And the result is they want to be sounding that shofar.
206
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:12,800
They want people, they want to hear the sound and get their ears prepared to know what it's
207
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:14,280
going to sound like.
208
00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:18,360
They want to hear that sound and they long for it in their spirits.
209
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:19,360
That's the shofar.
210
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:22,080
How do you explain it all over the world?
211
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:25,200
People are bringing shofars back from Israel.
212
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:26,200
Let's talk about Gilgal.
213
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,560
Gilgal is more than a town.
214
00:12:28,560 --> 00:12:37,280
Gilgal refers to a formation of stones about the size of a football field almost in the
215
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:40,320
shape of a footprint.
216
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:43,240
There are six of them that have just been found.
217
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:47,680
They've been around for 3,400 years.
218
00:12:47,680 --> 00:12:50,800
We're just finding them.
219
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:55,160
One of the men involved with helping restore them is a man named Byron Stinson.
220
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,160
I want you to remember that name.
221
00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,160
I'm going to bring it up a little bit later.
222
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,640
But the Gilgals, here's a picture of them.
223
00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:04,400
Here's the stones in a formation.
224
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:07,160
What's big about this?
225
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:11,880
Every one of these six are surrounded by hills where people, two million of them, can gather
226
00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:14,040
as a natural amphitheater.
227
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:17,060
This is where the Ark of the Covenant was brought.
228
00:13:17,060 --> 00:13:20,160
This is where the tabernacle was set up.
229
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:24,280
Once they crossed into Israel, they came in.
230
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:30,680
They set up the operation in this, the tabernacle and the Holy of Holies.
231
00:13:30,680 --> 00:13:35,680
In this, they gathered on the hillside to worship the Lord, the longing to worship the
232
00:13:35,680 --> 00:13:36,680
Lord.
233
00:13:36,680 --> 00:13:41,520
My wife pointed out to me this morning that in the Hebrew text, it doesn't just say,
234
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:46,280
I want you to build an Ark of the Covenant so I may dwell in it.
235
00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:54,240
The actual Hebrew rendering is build an Ark of the Covenant so I, God, may dwell in them.
236
00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:56,680
I'm going to be locatable in this box.
237
00:13:56,680 --> 00:14:02,720
However, my goal is not to stay in the box, is to be dwelling in each of them.
238
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:08,600
So there's something about the human heart that longs to be indwelt by that who actually
239
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:13,000
created it, the image of God, the Imago Dei stamped on our heart.
240
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:18,120
These six rock formations, the size of foot, wherever your foot shall go, that land shall
241
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:19,240
be yours.
242
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:22,480
There's six of them at least, perhaps seven, have been discovered.
243
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:28,240
This gives you some sensing right now of how they're designed and where they were.
244
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:33,200
So as the Ark of the Covenant was moved until it got to finally Shiloh, and there at Shiloh
245
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:39,440
it was for 369 years, was the capital of the 12 tribes until it was moved eventually to
246
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:40,440
Jerusalem.
247
00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:42,080
But there's more discoveries.
248
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:47,360
Again, Mount Ebal, remember Mount Gerizim is the Mount of Blessings.
249
00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:51,240
Shechem, Mount Ebal on the other side.
250
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:55,800
This is the place that Moses said when you enter the land, Moses wasn't going to enter.
251
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:59,520
Joshua, when you guys go in, go between the mountains.
252
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:02,440
Remember I preached a sermon here a long time ago about the covenant, walking between the
253
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:03,480
parts.
254
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:08,040
Go between the parts, Mount Gerizim blessing, Mount Ebal, Mount of Curses.
255
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:11,300
You go between the parts and he gave instructions.
256
00:15:11,300 --> 00:15:16,320
Have priests stand on each mountain and the ones on the Mount of Gerizim yelled out to
257
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,840
the people, beware, beware, obey the Lord.
258
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:23,440
If you obey the Lord, blessings will pour out upon you.
259
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:29,480
But on Ebal, the priests were to shout down, if you disobey God, curses shall come upon
260
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:32,000
you, the Mount of Curses.
261
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:43,000
Now Joshua's altar has been lost for 3,400 years, but Adam Zertal, a Jewish archaeologist,
262
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:44,000
discovered it.
263
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:45,560
He did not believe the Bible.
264
00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:48,140
He did not believe the Tanakh or the Old Testament.
265
00:15:48,140 --> 00:15:54,360
When he discovered it, he was so shocked, he started believing the authority of scripture,
266
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:55,360
the Old Testament.
267
00:15:55,360 --> 00:16:02,240
Aaron Lipkin, a friend of ours, has sort of the mantle of Aaron Zertal and him as a self-taught
268
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:05,680
archaeologist and some of these are trips over there.
269
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:07,080
Rosemary ranges, it's for go.
270
00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:12,520
You can only go there with Israeli Defense Forces escort and we go to that actual site.
271
00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:15,240
This is my favorite site in all of Israel.
272
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:19,200
On the left you see what it looked like at the time of Joshua.
273
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:23,560
And you see the stone formation, the ramp for taking up the sacrifices.
274
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:25,840
On the right is how it looks now.
275
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:32,680
Pray supernatural protection over this because various forces, the Muslim Arabs that are
276
00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:37,020
there, have come in and tried to destroy it even as much as two weeks ago, putting a bunch
277
00:16:37,020 --> 00:16:42,120
of tires in it and burning it, defacing it, and it had to be cleaned up again just as
278
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:45,240
much as this last couple of weeks.
279
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,960
In addition to that, there's the Red Heifers.
280
00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:49,880
Are they necessary for the Messiah to come?
281
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:51,520
Well, they predate it.
282
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:53,760
Two brothers have impacted me a great deal.
283
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:59,480
Esauq or Saki, mammo, is an Orthodox Jew from Jerusalem.
284
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:03,240
Byron Stinson is a successful Texas businessman.
285
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:09,680
These two have been used profoundly by the Lord to help us understand these next few
286
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:10,680
topics.
287
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:16,520
They worked together and put advertisements around Texas looking for the Red Heifer.
288
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:17,520
What is a Red Heifer?
289
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:22,280
Remember, those of you who are not agriculturally raised, a heifer is a female bovine.
290
00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:27,160
In other words, a cow is one that's been impregnated, but before it's impregnated, it's called a
291
00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:28,160
heifer.
292
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:36,400
And so they looked for a Red Heifer, one that had never worked and yoked in any way and
293
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:43,240
could have no marking on it because according to Numbers 19, they were looking for the perfect
294
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:44,240
Red Heifer.
295
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:45,240
This is a command of the Lord.
296
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:51,040
This is why the Jews do it, to have a perfect Red Heifer, impeccable, no white hair, no
297
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:52,920
gray hair, no blemish.
298
00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:57,000
Well, how are you going to find a perfect Red Heifer?
299
00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,600
There's been attempts for several hundred years.
300
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:01,480
They haven't found any.
301
00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:04,720
And so they attempted to find some right now.
302
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:08,880
And Byron Stinson put advertisements around the Dallas-Fort Worth area originally and
303
00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:13,680
across Texas to help us find the right Red Heifer that's perfect.
304
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:17,640
Now once a heifer is born, or any cow is born, you put an ear tag in it.
305
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:18,640
I grew up on a farm.
306
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:19,640
That's what we did.
307
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:21,200
So you can identify it.
308
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:24,920
But they didn't do that for a while because of COVID and the veterinarians couldn't get
309
00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:25,920
out.
310
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:30,840
And so there were a bunch of heifers that were born that had no blemish on them by that
311
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:32,240
ear tag.
312
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:38,680
And so the rabbis came over wanting to fulfill Numbers chapter 19 and find that Red Heifer
313
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:39,920
and to begin the process.
314
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:41,200
Now it's not a sacri...
315
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:46,420
Now it's true the animal gets sacrificed, but that's inconsequential.
316
00:18:46,420 --> 00:18:50,560
It does give its life and they take the ashes of the Red Heifer.
317
00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:54,840
And if you go back to the Numbers passage, you look towards the end of the Numbers passage
318
00:18:54,840 --> 00:19:00,120
and there it tells you that it's mixed with a number of other things, very rich in symbolism
319
00:19:00,120 --> 00:19:02,320
that we do not have the time to go to.
320
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:06,840
And then it's to be sacrificed on the Mount of Olives, or prepare the ceremony, I should
321
00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,600
say, on the Mount of Olives.
322
00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:17,420
And it's directly across from the mount where the temple mount is, where the temple.
323
00:19:17,420 --> 00:19:21,240
This is what they believe the bridge looked like back then.
324
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:22,560
No one has seen it.
325
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:27,280
We have no pictures of it because this has not happened for 2000 years.
326
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:31,360
And the bridges that were used, the reason they had a bridge going across the Kidron
327
00:19:31,360 --> 00:19:37,400
Valley, because the Kidron Valley is all a cemetery and the people involved with this
328
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:41,520
ceremony could not have any contact with the dead.
329
00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:47,080
And since they couldn't have contact with the dead, this was built so it would be pure
330
00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:49,200
and no contact with the dead.
331
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:51,140
This is built presumably out of wood.
332
00:19:51,140 --> 00:19:54,880
That's why there's nothing remaining of it to this day.
333
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:57,840
But they're preparing again today for this.
334
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,480
It's happened nine times in history.
335
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:06,360
And according to Jewish tradition, the 10th time, the next time it happens, it's to be
336
00:20:06,360 --> 00:20:12,400
either done by the Messiah himself or in direct preparation for the Messiah.
337
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:17,680
And so consequently, they begin searching, Rabbi searching in Texas with Byron's help,
338
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:19,720
looking for red heifers that were perfect.
339
00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:23,120
They finally found some and they wanted to get them back to Israel.
340
00:20:23,120 --> 00:20:26,280
Israel says, we will not accept, they want to bring back five of them.
341
00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:29,760
So we will not accept livestock from the United States.
342
00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:32,560
So Sakeim Amomoh says, fine, this is not livestock.
343
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:33,560
These are my pets.
344
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:37,200
They said, oh, we take pets so you can bring them back.
345
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:41,800
So they boxed them up, put them on American Airlines, flew them in.
346
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:45,040
They are an undisclosed location in Israel.
347
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,320
And here are the group of guys that worked on it.
348
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:52,280
The man with the maroon shirt in the middle is Byron Stinson, who was the driving force
349
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:58,560
along with his good friend, Sakeim Amomoh, who is second from the left, Sakeim Amomoh.
350
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:02,000
And so the red heifers are there now.
351
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:05,560
And it looks like all of them so far have qualified.
352
00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:11,360
And once they're two years and one month old, or some say two years and three months old,
353
00:21:11,360 --> 00:21:13,640
they're qualified by age.
354
00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:21,040
And so one of these is about to be involved in the next few weeks, the first time in 2000
355
00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:27,440
years, the ceremony is going to actually take place, fulfilling numbers 19 to the Jewish
356
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:28,440
person.
357
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:31,720
They're doing it because they were commanded to the Lord to do so.
358
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:33,560
And they love the commands of the Lord.
359
00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:35,320
And so should we.
360
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:40,400
My good friend Byron Stinson explains to us as believers, the red symbolizes the blood
361
00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:41,680
of Jesus.
362
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:46,440
This purification process symbolizes Jesus himself, what he did for us.
363
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:57,240
It is an announcement to us if this happens, that the Messiah's coming is in fact soon.
364
00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,760
We have the red heifers, but we need the place.
365
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:01,120
Where does it have to happen?
366
00:22:01,120 --> 00:22:10,440
It has to happen east of the Temple Mount, east of the original temple, on the same elevation
367
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:11,440
as the temple.
368
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:14,240
Well, how could you get land like that?
369
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:19,160
Two men, Saki Mammo and Byron Stinson, have been involved in that very thing.
370
00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:25,360
If an Arab Muslim sells land, which they own Mount Olives, if they sell it to a Jew, they'd
371
00:22:25,360 --> 00:22:26,360
be killed.
372
00:22:26,360 --> 00:22:31,840
And so through a complicated process that I don't even know what it is, 12 years ago,
373
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:35,640
Saki was able to buy some land there, Tudumun.
374
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:38,280
Tudumun means a quarter of an acre.
375
00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:43,360
And so across from the Temple Mount, they actually have, I think my battery might have
376
00:22:43,360 --> 00:22:45,440
died, it's not clicking here.
377
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:47,640
Needing some help there, guys.
378
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:50,400
Okay, now I jumped way ahead.
379
00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:54,360
Okay, let's see if we can get it back to the right one.
380
00:22:54,360 --> 00:23:01,480
Okay, they now have the land directly east of the old Temple Mount.
381
00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:03,240
And this is a view looking at the Temple Mount.
382
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:07,000
Now that gold dome is not the temple, as you know.
383
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:12,080
That's the dome of the rock that's controlled essentially by the Muslims.
384
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:15,480
And to the left of that is Alaska Mosque.
385
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:17,360
Someday, I don't know how God's going to do it.
386
00:23:17,360 --> 00:23:20,080
There's gonna be a third temple built there.
387
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:21,400
What's he gonna do with the things that are there?
388
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:22,400
I don't know.
389
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,580
It's God's department, not mine.
390
00:23:24,580 --> 00:23:29,400
And so in preparation for that, the equivalent of what you're seeing on the screen now, the
391
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:34,720
10th Hever will be prepared for the cleansing ceremony.
392
00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:38,200
This is a view from the land that has now been purchased.
393
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,420
Miraculously, they own the land.
394
00:23:40,420 --> 00:23:46,320
This is taken from that land directly across, you see, in line with the Temple Mount.
395
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:50,040
Why is that location important?
396
00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:57,960
Remember in the New Testament, when the centurion witnessed the death of Jesus, he said, truly,
397
00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:00,360
this is the Son of God.
398
00:24:00,360 --> 00:24:02,120
What made him believe that?
399
00:24:02,120 --> 00:24:03,680
Was it because it was dark?
400
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:05,200
The sun had suddenly disappeared?
401
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:08,560
No, it had been dark three hours by then.
402
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:10,160
Was it because Jesus died?
403
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:14,080
No, he'd seen many people die on a cross.
404
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:15,080
Was the earthquake?
405
00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:16,080
I doubt that.
406
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:17,680
What do you think it was?
407
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:24,120
Well, we're told in that passage that the temple and the Holy of Holies, the temple
408
00:24:24,120 --> 00:24:32,240
curtain, the veil, which is very thick, a monstrous curtain, it's split from top to
409
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:33,240
bottom.
410
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:36,980
If you remember, I've talked about in the covenant message, I've talked about the splitting
411
00:24:36,980 --> 00:24:42,800
from top to bottom occurred in Genesis chapter 15 with the sacrifice and the covenant making
412
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,040
ceremony between God and Abraham.
413
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:48,760
That curtain split from top to bottom.
414
00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:54,320
We're told other places, the interpretation of that, that splitting from top to bottom
415
00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:59,880
is the picture of Jesus becoming our covenant lamb in that moment.
416
00:24:59,880 --> 00:25:04,000
There would have been a bright light that will come into the darkness from the Holy
417
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:05,000
of Holies.
418
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:06,960
But that curtain split.
419
00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:12,720
I think that's why the centurion shocked by what he saw, turned around and looked at that
420
00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:18,400
cross and said, truly, this is the son of God.
421
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:26,240
Now that declaration was an admission he saw something that was so inescapable, it transformed
422
00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:27,240
his life.
423
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:34,980
I believe that indicates the place of Jesus' crucifixion was there, not the places you're
424
00:25:34,980 --> 00:25:39,140
taken, the two other places you're taken, saying, well, maybe he's crucified here.
425
00:25:39,140 --> 00:25:41,040
This is the place of the crucifixion.
426
00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:48,320
That's why the cleansing ceremony of the red heifer is so critical for us as believers.
427
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:50,960
So now we have a red heifer.
428
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:56,640
Now we have land that's going to be used in the next few weeks.
429
00:25:56,640 --> 00:26:02,440
Fashion your seatbelt, something that has not happened in 2000 years.
430
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:04,920
You'll be hearing about it a great deal.
431
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:09,720
There's one entity, one organization that's going to try to get it out electronically
432
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:15,080
to 800 million people at once to watch this phenomenon.
433
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:18,680
This will be much bigger than the Super Bowl, let me assure you.
434
00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:20,320
Well, there's more to it.
435
00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:23,160
So we have a red heifer, we have the land.
436
00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:25,220
But what about the temple, the third temple?
437
00:26:25,220 --> 00:26:28,540
There was Solomon's temple that was destroyed.
438
00:26:28,540 --> 00:26:31,660
There was Herod's temple in the time of Jesus.
439
00:26:31,660 --> 00:26:35,480
But now we're told that there's going to be another temple, a third temple.
440
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:39,680
Now we as Christians believe we are the temples of the Holy Spirit, so the building in and
441
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:43,840
of itself is not necessarily what we long for.
442
00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:48,800
But we recognize that for the king to come, there'll be a temple built, there'll be
443
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:51,060
an antichrist who desecrates it.
444
00:26:51,060 --> 00:26:52,060
We understand that.
445
00:26:52,060 --> 00:26:54,800
So we're not longing for an antichrist by any means.
446
00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:57,120
We long for Jesus to come.
447
00:26:57,120 --> 00:27:00,120
But the revelation does give us a glimpse into that.
448
00:27:00,120 --> 00:27:02,600
So what about a third temple?
449
00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:06,920
If I take you to the temple institute, my wife takes people there all the time, you're
450
00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:15,520
going to find they have now put together carefully, scientifically, every ingredient they need
451
00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:18,920
to build the third temple.
452
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:20,840
Everything.
453
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:25,920
They've even analyzed the type of threads that the construction of the very nature of
454
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:29,160
the threads on the garments for the priest.
455
00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:32,400
Microscopically examined, everything's ready.
456
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:35,000
And they even say they know where the Ark of the Covenant is.
457
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:36,200
I don't know on that.
458
00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:38,080
No commentary on that one.
459
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:39,860
But they're prepared to build it.
460
00:27:39,860 --> 00:27:42,160
But it takes a lot of resources to build something like that.
461
00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:44,640
Where are we going to get those resources?
462
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:49,600
Our friend Saki Mamo got a call, a shocking call just recently.
463
00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:52,200
He said, come to Papua New Guinea.
464
00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:53,360
Why would I go to Papua New Guinea?
465
00:27:53,360 --> 00:27:55,280
He says, I don't even know where it is.
466
00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,840
He actually did not know where it was on the map near Australia.
467
00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:04,800
A tiny little island occupied by 800 tribes with 800 different languages.
468
00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:06,200
They said, come.
469
00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:08,600
So he got on a plane and he went.
470
00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:10,800
He met with the tribes.
471
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:15,320
He met with them and they even made him honorary in their tribe.
472
00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:17,240
He met with the prime minister.
473
00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:18,240
Why was this important?
474
00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:20,720
He presented him a book about the temple.
475
00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:22,420
You can see the book here more.
476
00:28:22,420 --> 00:28:26,840
And Papua New Guinea was also important because it was the fifth country now that has moved
477
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:30,800
their embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
478
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:32,080
Why is that important?
479
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:34,120
Donald Trump was the first.
480
00:28:34,120 --> 00:28:36,020
Why is that important?
481
00:28:36,020 --> 00:28:40,360
By moving from Tel Aviv, which is an outlier city, it's an important city, but it's not
482
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:43,600
the capital, to Jerusalem.
483
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:47,920
It's an acknowledgement that Jerusalem is not, it's a very important language, not an
484
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:50,120
quote international city.
485
00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:53,840
By international city is a nice way of saying it doesn't belong to the Jewish people.
486
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:55,060
It belongs to others.
487
00:28:55,060 --> 00:28:56,480
It's divided.
488
00:28:56,480 --> 00:29:00,320
And by saying no, Jerusalem is the capital, they get to declare their capital.
489
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:04,400
It's the only nation on earth that can't pick its own capital.
490
00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:07,440
The rest of the world says, no, you're not allowed to have Jerusalem as the capital.
491
00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:08,640
It belongs to other people too.
492
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:11,360
They said, no, Jerusalem is our city.
493
00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:13,840
And Donald Trump says, I'm going to move the embassy.
494
00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:17,600
And it's almost all of his team, except for three, said, if you move that, it's going
495
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:19,280
to start World War III.
496
00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:20,280
Donald Trump said, no, it won't.
497
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:21,280
I'm going to move it.
498
00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:22,280
He moved it.
499
00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:23,280
It was fine.
500
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:29,200
But there's a way of declaring this is the capital of Israel, the indivisible, not dividable
501
00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:34,800
and eternal capital of Israel in accordance with the scripture.
502
00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:37,280
One other country followed another country followed.
503
00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:41,800
There's almost 200 countries, 193 countries, members of the United Nations.
504
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:42,800
They all stood up follow.
505
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:46,840
They didn't finally the fifth one has now and that's Papa New Guinea.
506
00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:51,680
And so Saki flew over there and they made him an honorary ambassador or some title.
507
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:53,520
He wasn't sure why he was there.
508
00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:59,360
And then he met with the minister of interior of the interior security.
509
00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:03,760
It's a nice way of saying kind of the head police of the nation.
510
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:05,080
They met became friends.
511
00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:12,400
And now he learned why he went around the world a 25 hour flight without a stop to Papa
512
00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:15,280
New Guinea all the way from Israel.
513
00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:17,760
They said, we have something we want to tell you.
514
00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:20,180
The prime minister says, this is my 50th birthday.
515
00:30:20,180 --> 00:30:21,640
I don't want a birthday present.
516
00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:27,120
I want to give presents and you're going to be taken into the interior and they will explain
517
00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:28,120
why.
518
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:32,200
He said, we're going to go to first Kings first Kings one, the queen of Sheba heard
519
00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:34,620
about Solomon verse two.
520
00:30:34,620 --> 00:30:38,360
She brought very much gold to him.
521
00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:39,560
Verse 10.
522
00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:48,380
She brought 120 talents of gold to build the first temple.
523
00:30:48,380 --> 00:30:52,440
Verse 11, the gold came from Ophir.
524
00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:55,560
Where's that 14?
525
00:30:55,560 --> 00:31:01,720
The amount of gold that Solomon got yearly was 666 talents of gold.
526
00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:06,720
That is one billion dollars in gold.
527
00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:14,360
Verse 22, the merchant ships once every three years were made able to make a cycle bringing
528
00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:17,440
in the gold.
529
00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:19,040
Where is Ophir?
530
00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:23,520
What does this have to do with Saki going to Papa New Guinea?
531
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:30,520
People in the tribes said, for 3000 years, we've had a tradition, an oral tradition.
532
00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:34,760
Remember in the oral tradition cultures, that's passed from father to son, from father to
533
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:39,520
son, et cetera, as oftentimes as accurate or even more accurate than if it had been written
534
00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:40,520
for them.
535
00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:47,240
And he said, for 3000 years, we've known we were the people who provided the gold to Solomon's
536
00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:51,200
temple 3000 years ago.
537
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:53,260
You're going to need gold.
538
00:31:53,260 --> 00:31:54,960
It came from Ophir.
539
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:56,800
People said, well, wait a minute, the gold came from Ethiopia.
540
00:31:56,800 --> 00:32:00,160
No, that would take three weeks for the ship to go and come.
541
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:04,680
Wherever it came from, it took three years to make the cycle.
542
00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:06,160
Where did it come from?
543
00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:07,320
Ophir.
544
00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:09,560
The tribe said, you know what we are called?
545
00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:12,280
We are called Ophia.
546
00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:13,280
One letter difference.
547
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:18,720
And on top of that, so much so that in the Middle Ages, they felt the need to rename
548
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:22,720
the islands all around them, the Solomon Islands.
549
00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:24,880
They said the gold came from us.
550
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:30,040
We have more gold in our country than any place else in the world.
551
00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:32,520
We're going to start mining it.
552
00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:36,460
One third of the gold is going to go to the mining company for doing it.
553
00:32:36,460 --> 00:32:39,640
One third of the gold is coming to us as a tribe.
554
00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:46,000
One third of the gold we want to give to Israel for the next temple to be built.
555
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:53,600
And so we have the third temple, Red Heifer, have the land and have the gold and all the
556
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:57,720
other thing the Temple Institute has done to prepare for the third temple.
557
00:32:57,720 --> 00:32:59,020
When will it go up?
558
00:32:59,020 --> 00:33:00,680
I do not know.
559
00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:02,680
What's the sequence of all this?
560
00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:07,880
I've asked my friend Saki, is it a case the Red Heifer first, Red Heifer ceremony, and
561
00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:12,480
then the building of the third temple and then the coming of the Messiah to us.
562
00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:14,680
It's the second coming of the Messiah.
563
00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:16,560
He says, I don't know the order for sure.
564
00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:19,720
I think that's probably order says you evangelicals.
565
00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:22,240
You have all your order that we we don't know.
566
00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:24,640
We just know we're just obeying.
567
00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:26,880
God said to the Red Heifer ceremony.
568
00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:27,960
So we're going to do it.
569
00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:34,260
And we now for the first time in 2000 years have a Red Heifer that's qualifying.
570
00:33:34,260 --> 00:33:40,380
And so in the next few weeks, you're going to hear about the ceremony taking place.
571
00:33:40,380 --> 00:33:42,800
He bought the land 12 years ago.
572
00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:45,080
They have a place to do it.
573
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:50,800
They now have the gold being goes to be start mined and given to them from the tribe of
574
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:53,840
Ophia seems awfully close.
575
00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:56,540
The first Kings 10 fear.
576
00:33:56,540 --> 00:33:59,040
And now I shift you to one more thing.
577
00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:00,760
Why is God revealing all these things?
578
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:03,600
Why is Israel showing up all these secrets?
579
00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:10,240
I want to talk to you about artifacts, a thousand approximate artifacts from actually the birthplace
580
00:34:10,240 --> 00:34:12,880
of the Messiah of Jesus.
581
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:17,300
And once again, on the first seven things I covered, I'm indebted indebted to my wife.
582
00:34:17,300 --> 00:34:20,040
My wife knows way more about Israel than I ever will.
583
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,600
She's been to Israel 75 times.
584
00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:28,160
These last four things I'm indebted to a Esau, Mama and Byron Stinson.
585
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:31,400
I want to take you on an amazing journey here.
586
00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:35,480
Genesis chapter 35 verse 21, then Israel.
587
00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:37,760
And remember his name is Jacob.
588
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:46,520
Then Jacob, Israel journeyed and pitched his tent beyond the tower of Adar, Migdal Adar
589
00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:48,040
tower of the flock.
590
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:49,040
Adar is flock.
591
00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:53,040
I want you to remember the words Migdal Adar.
592
00:34:53,040 --> 00:35:00,840
They're extremely important in understanding the birthplace of Jesus, the real birthplace
593
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:01,840
of Jesus.
594
00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:05,440
So Jacob, when his wife, Rachel died, he was heartbroken.
595
00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:09,000
He traveled and he pitched his tent at Migdal Adar.
596
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:13,440
When do we ever find the tower of the flock or tower of Adar mentioned before?
597
00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:16,840
Micah four eight and you, oh, tower of the flock.
598
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:22,240
The Hebrew words there Migdal Adar, the tower of the flock is another place that's mentioned
599
00:35:22,240 --> 00:35:26,920
by the prophet, the stronghold of the daughter of Zion to you shall it come.
600
00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:27,920
What shall come?
601
00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:29,960
Even the former kingdom shock up.
602
00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:34,800
The former king, what, what was the zenith of Israel's history?
603
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:36,160
It's time of David.
604
00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:40,520
Let me ask you how much land did God promise to Israel?
605
00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:47,240
The answer about 300,000 square miles from Euphrates to the Nile.
606
00:35:47,240 --> 00:35:50,600
What was the most that Israel ever had?
607
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:53,200
It was under David and somewhat under Solomon.
608
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:54,360
How much was it?
609
00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:56,280
About 200,000 square miles.
610
00:35:56,280 --> 00:36:01,800
They never had all of the 300,000 square miles that was promised to them from the Euphrates
611
00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:03,980
all the way down to the Nile.
612
00:36:03,980 --> 00:36:06,700
How much does Israel have now, by the way?
613
00:36:06,700 --> 00:36:12,400
Not 300,000, not 200,000, 8,000 square miles.
614
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:15,560
And they're surrounded by a lot of people who want to take every bit of that away from
615
00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:18,160
them and drive them into the sea.
616
00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:22,800
But the former dominion, the dominion of David, that is the high water mark.
617
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:28,440
When you go to Israel, they all talk about David, the time of David, the worship of David,
618
00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:30,720
the season of David, the kingdom of David.
619
00:36:30,720 --> 00:36:33,920
Even you go to McDonald's, it's McDavid burgers.
620
00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:36,640
I mean, it's everything is David there.
621
00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:42,560
And so this is an announcement that the king of all kings is going to be born at this location,
622
00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:45,800
the tower of the flock, the Migdal Ader.
623
00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:49,600
Now at this point, I've got a real pleasant surprise for you.
624
00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:53,040
I've been talking about Byron Stinson all this time.
625
00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:54,040
He's here.
626
00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:56,480
Byron, join me on the platform right now.
627
00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:59,480
Welcome Byron Stinson.
628
00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:03,040
Thank you.
629
00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:06,760
This man is a brother.
630
00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:09,200
He's a successful businessman.
631
00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:14,920
Won't talk about his businesses, but he is a man along with Sakemamo.
632
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:16,280
They created Bona Israel.
633
00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:18,840
Bona Israel means build up Israel.
634
00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:21,520
They've taken millions of dollars into Israel.
635
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:26,200
The government over there trust him and believes in him totally because he's come in even below
636
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:27,920
the Garden of Gethsemane, all that area.
637
00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:31,180
He helped raise the funds and clean that all up.
638
00:37:31,180 --> 00:37:33,840
And so he's highly trusted there.
639
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:40,640
And in God's, he's from Granbury, Texas, but in God's timing, from 2007 on, he was put
640
00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:45,040
under the tutelage of some of the best rabbis that could teach him so much.
641
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:47,080
I've learned so much from him.
642
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:52,720
I'm going to turn to you and Byron talk to us about the Migdal Ader, the Tower of the
643
00:37:52,720 --> 00:37:58,720
Flock, the actual birthplace of Jesus, recently affirmed.
644
00:37:58,720 --> 00:38:01,680
So let's go to Micah 5.2.
645
00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:04,640
If you'll read Micah 5.2, but read it really careful.
646
00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:07,640
It says, but you Bethlehem Ephrata.
647
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:16,640
Now Queen Helena at 300 AD, she went to Bethlehem, to the area of the fields of Bethlehem.
648
00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:20,680
And she didn't really understand that word Ephrata because if she had it, she would have
649
00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:23,800
known that means fruitful in Hebrew.
650
00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:29,040
So to you Bethlehem, the fruitful place, which is where the wheat and barley grow, through
651
00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:32,680
you, though you are little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of you shall come forth
652
00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:38,400
to me the one to be the ruler in Israel, whose goings forth are from old and from everlasting.
653
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:39,600
And we know who that is.
654
00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:43,480
That's Yeshua, the son of Mary and Joseph.
655
00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:49,200
So she went on top of a hilltop, and that's where she felt like was the right place.
656
00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:51,040
And she put a beautiful church there.
657
00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:56,240
It's a great place to worship, but it's not the place that the Bible tells us is the place
658
00:38:56,240 --> 00:38:57,240
of the birth.
659
00:38:57,240 --> 00:39:02,600
So if we go to the next slide, Jim, what we're looking at here, these are the fields of Bethlehem.
660
00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:07,920
And if you go back in your Bible and you read the story of Boaz and Ruth, now you're in
661
00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:10,040
the fields of Bethlehem.
662
00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:14,960
Now you see Ruth down there coming together, and she's Gentile and he's Jew, and they're
663
00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:17,960
coming together in the fields of Bethlehem.
664
00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:19,920
And this is what God is doing today.
665
00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:21,680
He's bringing us all together.
666
00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:26,360
For all of the people in the churches worldwide and our fathers of faith in Israel coming
667
00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:27,360
together.
668
00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:32,440
And we have to say the same thing Ruth said, that your God is my God, your people are my
669
00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:35,760
people, your nation is my nation, and I won't leave you.
670
00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:36,760
I'm going to be with you.
671
00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:40,400
And right now, we're at a time when they're taking their position in the world, and it's
672
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:46,400
our opportunity as the churches worldwide to join just like Ruth did with Boaz.
673
00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:50,040
So let me tell you where these fields are so you can understand.
674
00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:54,640
If you look at the next slide, this is called the Mataba map.
675
00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:57,120
It's on the floor of a church in Mataba, Jordan.
676
00:39:57,120 --> 00:40:00,760
And this map is from 520 AD.
677
00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:07,440
It was a few hundred years after Queen Helena had built the Church of the Nativity in what
678
00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:09,360
she thought was Bethlehem.
679
00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:13,960
If you look at this map, it's actually, the orientation is different than most maps.
680
00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:15,120
It's not north.
681
00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:17,000
It's not up for north.
682
00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:18,840
To the left side is north.
683
00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:22,640
You can see the Jordan River coming out of the Dead Sea over here.
684
00:40:22,640 --> 00:40:25,440
And so this shows you the north orientation.
685
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:30,880
Now, if we move down and look a little below that, you see something that looks kind of
686
00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:31,880
like a football.
687
00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:32,880
That's the city of Jerusalem.
688
00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:39,320
Now, the city of Bethlehem that Queen Helena thought was the city of Bethlehem is to the
689
00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:40,320
south.
690
00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:45,760
And as we look to the south, you'll see something there that says Ephrata.
691
00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:47,680
And then to the right of that, there's something.
692
00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:49,720
Look at the next slide, Jim.
693
00:40:49,720 --> 00:40:52,400
You see that it says number two there.
694
00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:58,000
And those words, it kind of looks like B-H. Anyway, it's Bethlehem in the Greek right
695
00:40:58,000 --> 00:40:59,160
there.
696
00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:04,440
And then to the left of it, which is going back north, you see this is a woman giving
697
00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:06,360
birth to a child right here.
698
00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:10,240
And I think we all know who the woman giving birth was when they were putting this on a
699
00:41:10,240 --> 00:41:13,640
church floor in 520 AD.
700
00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:15,120
This is Ephrata.
701
00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:18,960
This is the place because they knew where Bethlehem Ephrata was.
702
00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:24,880
And it was to the north of the Queen Helena's Church of Nativity.
703
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,000
So that brings us to the fields of Bethlehem.
704
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:30,700
Now, this next picture is a picture of those fields.
705
00:41:30,700 --> 00:41:32,960
This is actually on a little bit higher level.
706
00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:38,040
This is the area where the threshing floor was and where there was enough breeze.
707
00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:41,220
The weed actually grows all the way at the bottom.
708
00:41:41,220 --> 00:41:45,280
That far hill, if you were to see the top of it, you would see where Queen Helena was
709
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:49,120
up on top of that hill putting a church up there, the Church of Nativity.
710
00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:52,360
But this is the actual place where the Tower of the Flock stood.
711
00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:57,240
Matter of fact, we've got a, next slide shows where the little circle is.
712
00:41:57,240 --> 00:42:02,240
That's basically where the base of the tower was there.
713
00:42:02,240 --> 00:42:04,340
It was a huge tower.
714
00:42:04,340 --> 00:42:06,800
And then you can see the remains that were inside of it.
715
00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:08,640
That's actually the barn area.
716
00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:10,960
That was the area where the animals were kept.
717
00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:14,600
Because you've got to remember, Mikdal Edder is the Tower of the Flock.
718
00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:16,560
It's not the tower of people living in it.
719
00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:19,800
It's the tower of a place to raise the flock.
720
00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:23,680
The flock that was set aside for sacrifice in the temple.
721
00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:29,380
That's what this was built for by Solomon to have the place for the animals to be raised.
722
00:42:29,380 --> 00:42:34,740
So when Solomon got ready to build his temple, we'll go to the next slide here.
723
00:42:34,740 --> 00:42:37,960
He's preparing for that and he needs everything to be brought to it.
724
00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:41,920
He needs oil, he needs the animals, he needs the wheat, the barley, the bread.
725
00:42:41,920 --> 00:42:44,720
He needs everything coming out of the fields of Bethlehem.
726
00:42:44,720 --> 00:42:46,960
And he can't do it on the Temple Mountain.
727
00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:52,720
So he goes out to where Boaz and Ruth came together.
728
00:42:52,720 --> 00:42:58,400
And then you have Obed and then you have Jesse and then you have King David who grew up in
729
00:42:58,400 --> 00:42:59,400
these fields.
730
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:01,980
David grew up right here where you're looking.
731
00:43:01,980 --> 00:43:04,840
This is where he grew up as a child.
732
00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:09,600
And then you see Solomon comes here to this place and establishes the place that everything's
733
00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:14,000
going to be taken into the temple.
734
00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:17,520
Now everything that we find here, most everything is made of limestone.
735
00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:21,480
And the reason it's made of limestone, the limestone is like life.
736
00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:23,720
The very bedrock itself.
737
00:43:23,720 --> 00:43:29,560
While everything we see has death on it, the stone itself, the earth itself still has life.
738
00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:35,340
And this is why the priesthood would always use limestone with whatever they were doing.
739
00:43:35,340 --> 00:43:39,640
So to this day we still find artifacts, amazing things there in this location.
740
00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:46,480
So in 2018, my son and my friend Moshe Bronstein and I were in the fields and we were looking
741
00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:48,080
in this area.
742
00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:52,600
And Moshe had told me for 10 years, he'd been saying, Byron, there's got to be a well here.
743
00:43:52,600 --> 00:43:54,440
I've looked for it since the 1980s.
744
00:43:54,440 --> 00:43:58,840
There's got to be a well because the priest would need living water to wash their feet
745
00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:06,520
before they would go into the area to take care of the flocks, the lambs of God.
746
00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:11,840
And so we're walking through the fields and lo and behold, we look up and there's a stone
747
00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:13,480
there that we flipped over.
748
00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:18,840
And when we flipped it over, it settled in the mouth of the well and it's cut out like
749
00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:20,320
a foot.
750
00:44:20,320 --> 00:44:25,680
This is where the priest, from 1000 BC all the way until the time of Christ, this is
751
00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:30,120
where the priest from the line of Judah would wash their feet and then they would anoint
752
00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:31,840
their feet with oil.
753
00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:36,920
That little receiver on the left, that little hole on the left, top left, that's where the
754
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:41,200
anointing oil would have been placed for anointing their feet before they would go in and do their
755
00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:43,760
work here in this place.
756
00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:46,120
You see, everything had to be in stone.
757
00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:48,800
The priesthood would not do anything in pottery.
758
00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:51,600
Common people do everything in pottery, it'd be much easier.
759
00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:54,220
Quick quick story.
760
00:44:54,220 --> 00:44:59,400
When Jesus does his first miracle, remember that the pots that were brought to him were
761
00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:01,200
made of stone.
762
00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:04,920
Now common people wouldn't have pots of stone because it's too heavy.
763
00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:08,360
That tells you that Jesus was at a priestly wedding.
764
00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:12,680
That's why we know when we see those stone pots come to him, we're looking at a priestly
765
00:45:12,680 --> 00:45:13,760
family.
766
00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:18,120
So here this particular stone is one that was made into a cup that could be used for
767
00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:21,520
ceremonies and for things that were being done at this place.
768
00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:24,800
This shows us that the priesthood was there in the place working.
769
00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:29,160
So through a foundation that my wife and I started in 2007 called the Father's House
770
00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:35,280
Foundation, we started taking teachers and pastors to Israel to teach of the archaeological
771
00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:40,920
finds in the land to explain the things of the Bible that is absolutely accurate.
772
00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:44,600
God is so accurate, it's incredible how accurate he is.
773
00:45:44,600 --> 00:45:46,560
Everything has to be perfect or it's not God.
774
00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:49,400
I'm telling you, it's amazing when you get to the land.
775
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:54,920
So we would take groups to the land and we would stand here at this particular place.
776
00:45:54,920 --> 00:46:00,320
This is probably one of our groups here that we were teaching on site.
777
00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:06,000
And this, where they're standing is actually a place that was laid out just like the tabernacle
778
00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:07,000
tent.
779
00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:09,400
It's laid out from the east to the west.
780
00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:14,320
On the far east, you see it says where the foot wash stone was found.
781
00:46:14,320 --> 00:46:16,720
That's the one that was found in 2018.
782
00:46:16,720 --> 00:46:18,960
The next part is like the outer court.
783
00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:20,720
The next one is like the holy place.
784
00:46:20,720 --> 00:46:23,000
And then you see the Holy of Holies.
785
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:26,880
In the Holy of Holy Place, this is the facsimile of what it would be if it was a tabernacle
786
00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:28,360
tent or the temple.
787
00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:30,280
Solomon laid it out just like that.
788
00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:35,840
And in the Holy of Holies, there was a special manger that was made in the bedrock.
789
00:46:35,840 --> 00:46:42,680
It was chiseled out of the bedrock to hold the lambs of God that were found at Passover.
790
00:46:42,680 --> 00:46:48,600
At each Passover, the shepherds, the Levitical priestly shepherds would be watching their
791
00:46:48,600 --> 00:46:53,320
flocks by night, looking for these perfect lambs that were going to be born.
792
00:46:53,320 --> 00:46:58,880
And they would take the perfect lamb, wrap it in swaddling cloths, and bring it to this
793
00:46:58,880 --> 00:47:03,440
particular manger to watch in this barn facility at the Tower of the Flock.
794
00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:06,760
They would watch it for one year before it would go.
795
00:47:06,760 --> 00:47:10,560
And the one that had been there for a year would then go on to the temple and be the
796
00:47:10,560 --> 00:47:13,680
sacrifice for sin for one year.
797
00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:19,980
This was the pattern that God was using to help us in the future understand how the blood
798
00:47:19,980 --> 00:47:24,080
of Yeshua was our covering for our sin.
799
00:47:24,080 --> 00:47:25,080
Okay?
800
00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:31,160
So, what happens here is when you fast forward from the time of Solomon, 1000 BC, and you
801
00:47:31,160 --> 00:47:37,240
go up to the time of Christ, when we get to Christ, Herod has said, Judah, you will not
802
00:47:37,240 --> 00:47:40,240
be furnishing anything to my temple that I built.
803
00:47:40,240 --> 00:47:44,600
I built it a lot better, and he moved everything to the south.
804
00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:48,160
Herod was the most antichrist of all of the kings of Israel.
805
00:47:48,160 --> 00:47:49,440
He wasn't from the line of Judah.
806
00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:52,680
And he said, Judah, you can't be doing that here anymore.
807
00:47:52,680 --> 00:48:01,640
So when Mary comes with Joseph, the manger is empty, the rock manger that was there for
808
00:48:01,640 --> 00:48:06,180
a thousand years, taking care of the sacrificial lambs of God.
809
00:48:06,180 --> 00:48:10,960
But the shepherds from the house of Judah were watching the flocks by night, and angels
810
00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:12,680
showed up in the air.
811
00:48:12,680 --> 00:48:17,440
And they were singing, glory to God in the highest, for unto you is born this one that's
812
00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:23,280
going to be the salvation and the redemption of all those that believe and trust in him.
813
00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:28,600
And they went up to look in the manger, and they found in swaddling claws, which are not
814
00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:35,680
baby blankets, these are made for protecting the lamb, in swaddling claws laid our Savior
815
00:48:35,680 --> 00:48:37,720
in this very manger.
816
00:48:37,720 --> 00:48:45,680
In 2007, I was approached by my Jewish friends, and they said, Byron, we've had some artifacts
817
00:48:45,680 --> 00:48:46,680
that need to be protected.
818
00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:47,680
Would you watch them?
819
00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:49,240
I said, I'll help anyway.
820
00:48:49,240 --> 00:48:50,720
You know, I'll do anything.
821
00:48:50,720 --> 00:48:52,180
I'm in.
822
00:48:52,180 --> 00:48:55,720
And they brought me the artifacts, and one of the artifacts is this particular manger
823
00:48:55,720 --> 00:49:01,580
that was cut from the holy place in the shepherd's fields.
824
00:49:01,580 --> 00:49:06,240
This is the very manger that the lambs of God were laid in for a thousand years, and
825
00:49:06,240 --> 00:49:07,520
is now in our possession.
826
00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:11,000
It's something that we're going to start showing the world, and I'm glad y'all are getting
827
00:49:11,000 --> 00:49:15,760
to be, I think, the second group that's ever got to see this.
828
00:49:15,760 --> 00:49:18,460
And the rest of the artifacts, we can go through them quickly.
829
00:49:18,460 --> 00:49:23,160
We have, like Jim said, about a thousand different artifacts in general.
830
00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:25,560
There's all kinds of swords of King David.
831
00:49:25,560 --> 00:49:31,000
There's all types of things that prove that the site is what it is, and God is about to
832
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:34,520
start revealing this to the world so that we understand.
833
00:49:34,520 --> 00:49:35,840
His word is true.
834
00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:37,080
His word is good.
835
00:49:37,080 --> 00:49:41,400
His word is both physical and it is spiritual.
836
00:49:41,400 --> 00:49:47,040
The church, by and large, worldwide, primarily operates in the spiritual, but our fathers
837
00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:50,720
of faith, the Jews, operate in the physical.
838
00:49:50,720 --> 00:49:53,640
And now we come together as one tree.
839
00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:57,480
Okay, the natural tree and the grafted-in tree.
840
00:49:57,480 --> 00:49:59,400
So let's join together.
841
00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:00,720
Let's love our fathers of faith.
842
00:50:00,720 --> 00:50:05,600
Let's pray for them, and let's do all we can as they take back that land and prove the
843
00:50:05,600 --> 00:50:09,920
glory of God by bringing His people back and taking His holy land for His name.
844
00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:10,920
Amen?
845
00:50:10,920 --> 00:50:16,520
I just want you to realize what you just heard, that a thousand artifacts, approximately,
846
00:50:16,520 --> 00:50:25,000
from the actual birthplace of Jesus, which we think left there maybe 1938 or 1939, not
847
00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:35,200
known for sure, possibly went on a circuitous route, ended up in our country, and the man
848
00:50:35,200 --> 00:50:41,240
in charge of them said to him, would you protect them?
849
00:50:41,240 --> 00:50:43,280
And where did you put them?
850
00:50:43,280 --> 00:50:49,040
Well they were in my barn, except for some of the swords and some of those things.
851
00:50:49,040 --> 00:50:53,320
Had 70 swords of King David, each one's worth about $50,000, they say.
852
00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:57,880
I had 70 of those sitting in my closet, you know.
853
00:50:57,880 --> 00:50:58,880
But I was protected.
854
00:50:58,880 --> 00:51:02,320
I had my 9-millimeter ready.
855
00:51:02,320 --> 00:51:15,080
Hidden behind bales of hay in a barn and preserved there, and they moved to another barn and
856
00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:17,480
then finally they've been moved one more time.
857
00:51:17,480 --> 00:51:21,080
At some point we'll be able to talk about the location, I guess.
858
00:51:21,080 --> 00:51:23,520
But perhaps not yet today.
859
00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:26,600
I want you to get a grasp of this.
860
00:51:26,600 --> 00:51:29,760
The angels appear to the shepherds.
861
00:51:29,760 --> 00:51:36,240
You think of shepherds as a bunch of cowpokes from Texas, a bunch of scruffy guys.
862
00:51:36,240 --> 00:51:39,100
That's not what the shepherds were like.
863
00:51:39,100 --> 00:51:47,960
The shepherds were a very sophisticated, erudite, highly trained, profoundly educated group
864
00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:56,680
of rabbis assigned to the task of finding the perfect lambs and wrapping them in swaddling
865
00:51:56,680 --> 00:52:03,440
cloths and preserving them and taking them four miles north for the sacrifice in the
866
00:52:03,440 --> 00:52:05,280
temple.
867
00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:14,640
So when these shepherds heard the angels say, you'll find him wrapped in swaddling cloths,
868
00:52:14,640 --> 00:52:17,520
they didn't have to say, where would that be?
869
00:52:17,520 --> 00:52:21,200
They knew where that was, because the angel gave no other directives.
870
00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:23,320
You're going to find him in swaddling cloths.
871
00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:24,560
What kind of a direction is that?
872
00:52:24,560 --> 00:52:27,000
Bethlehem and the surrounding hills, that's a big area.
873
00:52:27,000 --> 00:52:28,000
How are you going to find one baby?
874
00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:30,480
No, you're going to find him in swaddling cloths.
875
00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:33,040
Oh, swaddling cloths, we know where to go.
876
00:52:33,040 --> 00:52:36,000
Migdal Adr, the tower of the flock.
877
00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:43,240
And he's going to be there, and the Luke passage, when we say manger, you think a bunch of boards
878
00:52:43,240 --> 00:52:44,800
put together, haphazard.
879
00:52:44,800 --> 00:52:46,640
I grew up on a farm.
880
00:52:46,640 --> 00:52:51,720
We fed cattle in a manger, a bunch of wood put together.
881
00:52:51,720 --> 00:52:58,120
Don't picture that, picture stone like you just saw, especially hewn stone for its purity.
882
00:52:58,120 --> 00:53:04,120
It was designed as a, the word in Luke is birthing stall.
883
00:53:04,120 --> 00:53:10,060
So you're going to find him in swaddling cloths, and he's in a birthing stall.
884
00:53:10,060 --> 00:53:13,480
They knew where that was, the tower of the flock.
885
00:53:13,480 --> 00:53:17,640
That's where you had the perfect lambs, you were protecting the swaddling cloths.
886
00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:19,440
What's the swaddling cloth?
887
00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:25,720
The swaddling cloths were the garments from the priest who served in the temple their
888
00:53:25,720 --> 00:53:27,840
two week period.
889
00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:33,160
It's listed in the Old Testament when they, when they, I was broken up, the segments,
890
00:53:33,160 --> 00:53:35,240
they had two weeks they served.
891
00:53:35,240 --> 00:53:38,180
And their garments were taken and torn into stripes.
892
00:53:38,180 --> 00:53:43,080
Those were the swaddling cloths that were used for the lamb.
893
00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:49,600
But Mary's there delivering a baby named Jesus, and she has swaddling cloths.
894
00:53:49,600 --> 00:53:51,240
Where does that come from?
895
00:53:51,240 --> 00:53:54,200
Who had she just met with over nine carom?
896
00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:57,040
She'd met with her cousin Elizabeth.
897
00:53:57,040 --> 00:53:58,840
Who was Elizabeth's husband?
898
00:53:58,840 --> 00:54:00,320
Zechariah.
899
00:54:00,320 --> 00:54:02,600
Where had Zechariah just been?
900
00:54:02,600 --> 00:54:06,040
He had just completed his two week time of service.
901
00:54:06,040 --> 00:54:07,440
What did he have left over?
902
00:54:07,440 --> 00:54:08,440
A garment.
903
00:54:08,440 --> 00:54:10,080
What do you do with the garment?
904
00:54:10,080 --> 00:54:15,800
You tear them in shreds and then you wrap the perfect lamb with those swaddling cloths.
905
00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:17,440
Is it possible?
906
00:54:17,440 --> 00:54:22,440
Mary got the swaddling cloths from cousin Elizabeth whose husband had just finished
907
00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:31,200
his time in the temple and then she has wrapped this perfect lamb named Yeshua in swaddling
908
00:54:31,200 --> 00:54:38,660
cloths and he was born in the birthing stall designed for perfect lambs.
909
00:54:38,660 --> 00:54:47,760
For him to be taken four miles north and hung on a tree to die for you.
910
00:54:47,760 --> 00:54:51,480
That's the message you've just heard.
911
00:54:51,480 --> 00:54:55,560
The other part of the message is he didn't come just once.
912
00:54:55,560 --> 00:54:59,200
He's coming a second time.
913
00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:05,380
If God were going to send himself in human form a second time, I'll bet he'd do a bunch
914
00:55:05,380 --> 00:55:09,680
of prophecies that, oh my goodness, they're being fulfilled.
915
00:55:09,680 --> 00:55:14,280
I'll bet he'd do a lot of self-revelation through the land.
916
00:55:14,280 --> 00:55:20,760
We discover a bunch of things all happening in sequence because he's coming.
917
00:55:20,760 --> 00:55:22,640
When is he coming?
918
00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:27,480
I don't know, but I would want to be ready now.
919
00:55:27,480 --> 00:55:29,000
My friends, I want to tell you something.
920
00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:34,120
I know there's a lot of people who are worried because evil is rising in the world and we
921
00:55:34,120 --> 00:55:38,600
know that in this story there's an antichrist comes to God's temple and says, you're going
922
00:55:38,600 --> 00:55:42,400
to stop and you're going to take the mark of the beast and we're going to have some
923
00:55:42,400 --> 00:55:45,840
even worse things probably than we see right now.
924
00:55:45,840 --> 00:55:47,160
Here's the promise.
925
00:55:47,160 --> 00:55:48,440
Listen to it.
926
00:55:48,440 --> 00:55:56,760
God promises as evil rises, his outpouring of the spirit is going to rise too.
927
00:55:56,760 --> 00:56:03,640
The word tells us that it's going to be the greatest day that the church has ever seen
928
00:56:03,640 --> 00:56:09,080
and we will see more salvations and more things happen in the middle of this time of tribulation
929
00:56:09,080 --> 00:56:10,840
than we've ever seen.
930
00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:15,840
But you need to be full of the Holy Spirit and the place to do that is right here, right
931
00:56:15,840 --> 00:56:16,880
now.
932
00:56:16,880 --> 00:56:18,000
This is your opportunity.
933
00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:22,880
If you don't know the Lord, come and accept him and believe in him and be filled with
934
00:56:22,880 --> 00:56:26,080
the Holy Spirit here in this place today, right now.
935
00:56:26,080 --> 00:56:27,080
Amen.
936
00:56:27,080 --> 00:56:31,800
Let me give you why you could have added consequence in evil times.
937
00:56:31,800 --> 00:56:35,280
I shared with you where Joshua's altar is.
938
00:56:35,280 --> 00:56:37,840
It's not on the Mount of Blessing.
939
00:56:37,840 --> 00:56:40,520
It's on the Mount of Curses, Ebal.
940
00:56:40,520 --> 00:56:44,800
Why would God put Joshua's altar on the Mount of Curses?
941
00:56:44,800 --> 00:56:46,360
I've asked that question to many people.
942
00:56:46,360 --> 00:56:48,100
Got a variety of answers.
943
00:56:48,100 --> 00:56:50,680
I think the answer is a pretty simple one.
944
00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:54,940
That God wanted to go to the place he's needed in the midst of evil.
945
00:56:54,940 --> 00:56:59,240
In the midst of darkness, here's God establishing himself.
946
00:56:59,240 --> 00:57:00,720
This is my land.
947
00:57:00,720 --> 00:57:01,880
This is the edge of my land.
948
00:57:01,880 --> 00:57:06,800
There is no place, not a square inch that I don't claim, says Jesus.
949
00:57:06,800 --> 00:57:13,280
This King who came originally as a lamb is coming now as King.
950
00:57:13,280 --> 00:57:14,280
It could be soon.
951
00:57:14,280 --> 00:57:16,020
Stand with me if you would right now.
952
00:57:16,020 --> 00:57:19,800
For somebody here, this is your time to get prepared for the second coming.
953
00:57:19,800 --> 00:57:23,480
I can't predict when it is, but it could be today.
954
00:57:23,480 --> 00:57:24,480
It could be a long time from now.
955
00:57:24,480 --> 00:57:25,480
I don't know.
956
00:57:25,480 --> 00:57:31,160
But I don't want one person within the sound of my voice to miss being ready for what's
957
00:57:31,160 --> 00:57:53,720
about to happen and unfold in history.
