00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,800
So what's the deal with the red heifers?
2
00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:07,440
There's a lot of anticipation and confusion
3
00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:10,760
when it comes to the prophetic red heifers of Israel.
4
00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:14,040
These biblical bovines have drawn the attention
5
00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:16,640
of people around the entire world.
6
00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:18,840
And for those who understand their importance
7
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:23,620
to the end times eschatology, the excitement is palpable.
8
00:00:23,620 --> 00:00:26,920
Yet there are many who do not seem to have a grasp
9
00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:30,160
on what these cows referenced in both the Old
10
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:34,360
and New Testaments signify and dismiss them immediately.
11
00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:38,000
For Christians, believers in Jesus Christ,
12
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:41,800
the significance of the red heifer is not that it is used
13
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:45,280
to ceremoniously purify priests outside
14
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:46,560
of the Holy of Holies.
15
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:50,360
Too many people appear to think that is the case
16
00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:51,480
when it's not.
17
00:00:51,480 --> 00:00:55,040
But the red heifers are significant
18
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:59,020
when it comes to eschatology or the study of the end times
19
00:00:59,020 --> 00:01:00,680
as described in the Bible.
20
00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:04,160
This is why biblical discernment, knowledge,
21
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:07,960
and wisdom is so crucial for Christians,
22
00:01:07,960 --> 00:01:11,240
especially in the days we are currently living in.
23
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:14,120
There are far too many verses in the Bible to go over
24
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:18,560
in this one video that encourage anyone who reads it
25
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,440
about the importance of interpretation
26
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:26,440
of the world around you using discernment granted to us
27
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:28,200
by the Holy Spirit.
28
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:31,920
So why care about these cows that Christians do not believe
29
00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:35,440
are necessary for purification and salvation?
30
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:38,360
To consolidate a highly volatile subject
31
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:41,620
such as biblical prophecy during the end times,
32
00:01:41,620 --> 00:01:45,640
of which people still cannot agree on many of the events
33
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:49,420
still to take place, the belief of many according
34
00:01:49,420 --> 00:01:52,760
to the prophets of the Bible is that there is still
35
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:57,440
a third temple to be built, most likely on the Temple Mount
36
00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:01,040
where the Holy of Holies is believed to have existed.
37
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:06,040
Now this poses some very serious world altering issues
38
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:09,200
because currently the Dome of the Rock sits
39
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:11,040
atop the Temple Mount.
40
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:14,760
And if the Al Aqsa Mosque and the Dome of the Rock
41
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:19,360
were to be removed, well, the odds are you could expect
42
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:24,360
violence, chaos, and war to break out across the world.
43
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:28,160
But Jesus prophesied in Matthew 24 that the end times
44
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:31,700
would see such wars and rumors of wars,
45
00:02:31,700 --> 00:02:33,280
so it is a possibility.
46
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:36,440
However, for those of the Jewish faith,
47
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:40,620
the third temple is a very real event that many pray
48
00:02:40,620 --> 00:02:42,740
for the day of its reinstatement.
49
00:02:42,740 --> 00:02:46,140
In fact, the Temple Institute in Jerusalem,
50
00:02:46,140 --> 00:02:50,700
as written on their website, is dedicated to every aspect
51
00:02:50,700 --> 00:02:54,760
of the Holy Temple of Jerusalem and the central role
52
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:58,200
it fulfilled and will once again fulfill
53
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,220
in the spiritual wellbeing of both Israel
54
00:03:01,220 --> 00:03:03,800
and all the nations of the world.
55
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:07,680
The people at the Temple Institute have faithfully restored
56
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:11,800
and constructed the vessels which the Jews hold sacred
57
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:13,420
for the third temple.
58
00:03:13,420 --> 00:03:16,780
One of the last pieces they need is the ashes
59
00:03:16,780 --> 00:03:21,780
of a pure red heifer mixed with cedar and hyssop
60
00:03:21,820 --> 00:03:25,540
to perform the ceremony as dictated by the Lord
61
00:03:25,540 --> 00:03:27,100
in Numbers 19.
62
00:03:27,100 --> 00:03:32,100
Now, Revelation 11 and Daniel 9 are just some of the places
63
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:35,760
in the Bible which talk about this restored temple,
64
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:39,920
so expect to see it happen during the end times
65
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,800
and be ready for what follows.
66
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:47,520
But having a pure of age red heifer is an indicator
67
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:51,680
for Christians that these days are fast approaching.
68
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,900
The increase of knowledge, another biblical prophecy
69
00:03:54,900 --> 00:03:57,960
that is being fulfilled each and every day,
70
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,560
is only getting faster and faster.
71
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:05,100
Evil is permeating the world just like in the days of Noah,
72
00:04:05,100 --> 00:04:07,960
perhaps even more so with how wicked people are acting
73
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,000
in cultures worldwide.
74
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,400
Even the terrorists of Hamas have come out recently
75
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,400
and said part of the reason for the massacre
76
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,720
they committed on October 7th,
77
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:22,980
and one of the targets was the red heifers.
78
00:04:22,980 --> 00:04:26,640
You can find the article on the Hamas spokesman's statements
79
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:28,160
in the description below.
80
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:32,160
They fear these animals because of what they represent,
81
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:35,940
and that is the rebuilding of the third temple,
82
00:04:35,940 --> 00:04:40,400
a sure sign of the end times and the revelation
83
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:41,800
of the Antichrist.
84
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,440
This is why Christians need to pay attention
85
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,880
and discern what is taking place in the world.
86
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:52,240
No, we do not believe as the Jews do in the purification
87
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,120
through the blood of the red heifer,
88
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,460
because we believe in the purification
89
00:04:56,460 --> 00:04:58,220
through the blood of the lamb.
90
00:04:58,220 --> 00:05:02,320
But these things, these events must happen
91
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:07,000
and come to pass before the return of Jesus Christ.
92
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,260
But don't just take my word for it.
93
00:05:09,260 --> 00:05:11,900
Take time to study and meditate
94
00:05:11,900 --> 00:05:14,560
on the word of God for yourselves.
95
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:18,440
Study the words of the prophets in the Old Testament
96
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,540
and learn about what must take place
97
00:05:21,540 --> 00:05:24,240
during the end times in Matthew 24
98
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:26,080
and the book of Revelation.
99
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,720
Also, do not forget that the disciple John,
100
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:33,060
who was entrusted with the Revelation,
101
00:05:33,060 --> 00:05:36,320
starts off the book by telling the readers,
102
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:39,100
we will be blessed by reading it
103
00:05:39,100 --> 00:05:41,820
and keeping the word near to our hearts.
104
00:05:41,820 --> 00:05:45,000
So if you truly, really want to know
105
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,400
what is going on in the world today,
106
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:49,440
look at the events such as the red heifers
107
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:52,680
taking place through a biblical lens.
108
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,500
Use biblical knowledge and wisdom
109
00:05:55,500 --> 00:05:57,580
to discern the signs of the times
110
00:05:57,580 --> 00:05:59,640
and move forward in faith.
111
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,340
While warring against the principalities,
112
00:06:02,340 --> 00:06:04,520
powers, and rulers of darkness
113
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,420
as all Christians are commanded to do.
114
