NOW THIS LESSON FRIENDS IS A SUBJECT TITLED PARABLE OF THE FIG TREE. THIS IS A PARABLE THAT OUR LORD HIMSELF DEMANDED THAT WE LEARN AND UNDERSTAND. WE ARE GOING TO TRY AND FIND OUT THE TRUTH, THE DEPTH OF GOD'S TEACHING AS IT IS WRITTEN, REGARDING THIS PARABLE OF THE FIG TREE.

WE WILL EXPLORE THE CONNECTION OF THIS PARABLE WITH THE FACT THAT JESUS CURSED THE FIG TREE ON THE WAY TO JERUSALEM. YOU MUST UNDERSTAND THIS PARABLE, OR YOUR WILL BE LOST.

NOW ARE YOU AWARD THAT THERE HAS BEEN TWO FIG TREES PLANTED IN ISRAEL IN THIS CENTURY? WE HAVE TO UNDERSTAND WHAT BIBLE PROPHECY IS SAYING TO UNDERSTAND ABOUT THESE TWO FIG TREES, THE GOOD FIG AND THE BAD FIG.

NOW WE WILL ASK GOD TO HELP US TO UNFOLD THESE TWO FIG TREES SO THAT WE WILL UNDERSTAND THE FACT THAT THERE ARE TWO SEED LINES, THE GOOD FIG AND THE BAD FIG, AND WHAT THEY REPRESENT.

NOW IN MATTHEW 7 JESUS SPEAKING THERE, AND HE IS TEACHING ABOUT BEING A FRUIT INSPECTOR. "YE SHALL KNOW THEM BY THEIR FRUITS". NOW JESUS BEGINS HERE IN VERSE 15 BY GIVING A WARNING.

NOW LET'S BEGIN, IN MATTHEW 7:15 IT READS, "BEWARE OF FALSE TEACHERS", THOSE THAT WOULD PUT FORTH THE WORD OF GOD FALSELY AND WOULD MISLEAD YOU, THOSE THAT ADD TO THE WORD AND IN FACT CAUSE THE VERY DECEPTION IN THESE END TIMES, IN THIS END GENERATION.

"THEY COME TO YOU IN SHEEPS CLOTHING", THEY LOOK LIKE SHEEP, BUT THEY ARE REALLY WOLVES AMONGST THE FLOCK.

MATTHEW 7:16. "YE SHALL KNOW THEM BY THEIR FRUITS. DO MAN GATHER GRAPES FROM THORNS, OR FIGS FROM THISTLES"?

"YE SHALL KNOW THEM", THE FALSE PROPHETS AND TEACHERS, BY THEIR FRUITS. THAT IS WHY YOU MUST BE A GOOD FRUIT INSPECTOR.

"DO MANY GATHER GRAPES FROM THORNS, OR FIGS FROM THISTLES"? NOT HARDLY, AS GOD HAS ESTABLISHED FROM THE BEGINNING. EVERY LIVING THING THAT WAS MADE WAS MADE IN ITS OWN KIND.

YOU SEE, YOU WILL NOT FIND ORANGES ON A PEAR TREE, OR APPLES ON A ORANGE TREE, AND IF YOU DO, REMEMBER CHRIST IS SAYING WATCH OUT, BEWARE OF THE FRUIT.

MATTHEW 7:17. "EVEN SO EVERY GOOD TREE BRINGETH FORTH GOOD FRUIT, BUT A CORRUPT TREE BRINGETH FORTH EVIL FRUIT".

NOW A GOOD TREE IS NOT GOING TO DO ANYTHING EXCEPT PRODUCE GOOD FRUIT, AND A CORRUPT TREE CANNOT HELP ITSELF BUT TO BRING FORTH CORRUPT FRUIT. NOW I WANT TO GET YOUR MIND TO BEGIN THINKING IN THE RIGHT WAY HERE, SO LET'S ESTABLISH THIS.

THERE WERE TREES IN THE GARDEN, WERE THERE NOT? I WANT YOU TO KEEP THIS IN THE BACK OF YOUR MIND AS WE GO THROUGH THESE SCRIPTURES, AND WE WILL GET THERE PRETTY SOON, BUT KEEP THIS IN MIND THAT THERE WERE TWO MAIN TREES AMONGST THE TREES IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN, THE TREE OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL AND THE TREE OF LIFE, THE GOOD TREE AND THE BAD CORRUPT TREE.

MATTHEW 7:18. "A GOOD TREE CANNOT BRING FORTH EVIL FRUIT, NEITHER CAN A CORRUPT TREE BRING FORTH GOOD FRUIT".

MATTHEW 7:19. "EVERY TREE THAT BRINGETH NOT FORTH GOOD FRUIT IS CAST DOWN, AND CAST INTO THE FIRE".

NOW THINK OF THIS FOR A MOMENT, WHAT FIRE IS THAT? WELL, IN THE END OF GOD'S PLAN FOR THIS EARTH AGE, IT IS GOING TO BE THAT LAKE OF FIRE AT THE END OF THE MILLENNIUM. NOW ALL THAT BEAR CORRUPT FRUIT AND ARE IN AND OF THEMSELVES CORRUPT WILL BE CAST INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE. THEY WILL BE CONSUMED BY FIRE. NOW GOD IS THE CONSUMING FIRE. (HEBREWS 12:29, FOR OUR GOD IS A CONSUMING FIRE.

MATTHEW 7:20. "WHEREFORE BY THEIR FRUITS YOU SHALL KNOW THEM."

NOW HOW SHALL YOU KNOW THEM? BY THEIR FRUITS, THAT IS THE REASON FOR MY STATEMENT: YOU MUST BE A GOOD FRUIT INSPECTOR ESPECIALLY IN THESE END TIMES. IT IS ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL. BY THEIR FRUIT YOU SHALL KNOW THEM.

ALRIGHT, LET'S GO NOW TO MARK 13:29 AND TAKE A FEW VERSES AND FIND OUT WHAT JESUS' COMMAND IS CONCERNING THIS PARABLE OF THE FIG TREE. THIS WAS A COMMAND. THIS WAS NOT AN OPTION, IT WAS NOT SOMETHING HE SAID, WELL, MAYBE IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA IF YOU DO THIS: HE SAID, "LEARN IT".

THIS WORD "LEARN" IN THE GREEK IS (MANTHANO) AND IT MEANS TO UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE LEARNING. HOW CAN YOU UNDERSTAND IF YOU DO NOT STUDY GODS WORD CHAPTER BY CHAPTER, VERSE BY VERSE, REMEMBER GOD LEFT HIS WORD FOR YOU WHEREBY YOU WILL NOT BE DECEIVED.

MARK 13:28. "NOW LEARN A PARABLE OF THE FIG TREE, WHEN HER BRANCH IS YET TENDER, AND PUTTETH FORTH LEAVES, YOU KNOW THAT SUMMER IS NEAR".

NOW LEARN THE PARABLE OF THE FIG TREE, AND UNDERSTAND IT. "WHEN HER BRANCH IS YET TENDER IT IS REFERRING TO THE TENDER TWIG, THE YOUNG BRANCH. "AND PUTTETH FORTH LEAVES", (NOT THE FRUIT), NOW MAKE A MENTAL NOT OF THIS.

JESUS DID NOT SAY IT HAD TO HAVE FRUIT ON IT, BUT JUST WHEN YOU EVEN BEGIN TO SEE THE LEAVES, "YOU KNOW THAT SUMMER IS NEAR". NOW WHAT WE WANT TO CONNECT HERE IS THAT THIS FIG TREE THAT HE IS TALKING ABOUT IS NONE OTHER THAN THE NATION OF ISRAEL.

NOW WHEN DID ISRAEL BECOME A NATION? IT BECAME A NATION IN MAY 15, 1948 FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO STUDY IN DANIEL, FOR YOU DEEPER SCHOLARS, I WILL SHOW YOU A CONNECTION IN A LITTLE BIT, TALKING ABOUT THIS FIG TREE BEING PLANTED.

SO WHEN THE BRANCH IS YET TENDER JUST BEGINNING TO COME FORTH, JUST BEGINNING TO GET A FEW LEAVES ON IT, NOW THAT SUMMER IS NEAR. NOW WHAT IS (SUMMER)? THE SUMMER IS THE TIME OF HARVEST, WHEN GOD WILL HARVEST HIS CHILDREN AT THE END OF THIS AGE.

MARKS 13:29. "SO YOU LIKE MANNER (WHICH MEANS IN THE SAME WAY) WHEN YOU SHALL SEE THESE THINGS COME TO PASS, KNOW THAT IT IS NEAR, EVEN AT THE DOORS".

SO WHAT IS HE SAYING? NUMBER ONE, THE FIG OR FIG LEAF SYMBOLIZES SOMETHING HIDDEN, AND ALWAYS WITH A BAD OR NEGATIVE CONNOTATION.

TO UNDERSTAND THIS HIDDEN SYMBOLISM OF THE FIG, CONSIDER THE BLOSSOM OF THE FIG. THE FIG BLOSSOM IS HIDDEN INSIDE ITSELF, IT DOES NOT APPEAR ON THE OUTSIDE. I WILL EXPAND ON THE NATURE OF THE FIGS IN A MOMENT. BUT FIRST, WHEN WAS THE FIRST TIME THE FIG WAS MENTIONED IN GOD'S WORD? AFTER ADAM AND EVE HAD SINNED IN THE GARDEN, THE SEWED FIG LEAVES TOGETHER AND MADE THEMSELVES APRONS TO HIDE OR COVER THEIR SIN.

NOW YOU MUST REALIZE THAT THEY MADE APRONS TO HIDE THEIR SIN, NOW DON'T LOSE SIGHT OF THIS FACT. AND IF YOU CONTINUE TO SEEK THE TRUTH WITHIN GOD'S WORD, YOU WILL UNDERSTAND THIS IN YOUR MIND PERFECTLY. ALRIGHT, LET ME GIVE YOU A LITTLE HISTORY ON THE FIGS SO THAT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO UNDERSTAND THIS PARABLE OF THE FIG TREE.

NOW THERE ARE TWO PRIMARY KINDS OF FIGS. THERE IS ONE THAT IS CALLED SMYRNA FIG. THE SMYRNA FIG IS THE FEMALE OF THE FIGS AND IT IS VERY TASTY, AND IT IS VERY EDIBLE FRUIT. AND THERE IS ANOTHER TYPE OF FIG THAT IS CALLED THE CAPRI FIG, AND IT IS THE MALE VERSION OF THE FIG THAT CANNOT BE EATEN.

NOW IT IS SOMETIMES REFERRED TO AS THE GOAT FIG, AND IT CANNOT BE EATEN BECAUSE IT IS VERY BITTER AND IT IS POISONOUS. NOW YOU MUST ALSO UNDERSTAND THAT THE FIG, UNLIKE MOST OTHER PLANTS, DOES NOT HAVE AN OUTWARD BLOSSOM, WHEREBY IT IS POLLINATED.

NOW THE FIG REQUIRES AN INSECT THAT IS CALLED THE FIG WASP, WHICH WILL GO INTO THE MALE FIG THROUGH A TINY HOLE AT THE END OF THE FIG. THE FIG WASP WILL GO INSIDE THAT LITTLE HOLE OF THE CAPRI FIG, AND THEN AS IT LEAVES, IT WILL CARRY THE POLLEN FROM THE HUNDREDS OF LITTLE BLOSSOMS THAT ARE ON THE INSIDE OF THE FIG TO THE SMYRNA FIG FOR POLLINATION.

NOW ANOTHER THING THAT YOU SHOULD UNDERSTAND IS THAT THE FIG IS SET IN PLACE, BECAUSE IT IS A SHOOT. SO NOW HERE LIES YOUR CONNECTION TO THE BOOK OF DANIEL FOR YOU DEEPER SCHOLARS. IF YOU WILL MAKE A NOTE OF DANIEL 12:11, YOU WILL REALIZE THAT THE FIG BEING MENTION THERE IS NONE OTHER THAN THE NATION OF ISRAEL, SET IN PLACE, SET UP IN MAY 15, 1948.

MARK 13:30. "VERILY I SAY UNTO YOUR, THAT THIS GENERATION SHALL NOT PASS, TILL ALL THESE THINGS BE DONE".

TILL WHAT THINGS BE DONE? WHAT IS HE TALKING ABOUT? WILL UNTIL ALL SEVEN THINGS THAT ARE LISTED RIGHT AFTER THIS IN MARK 13 ARE DONE. THESE SEVEN THINGS BY THE WAY, ARE THE SEVEN SEALS, THE VERY SAME SEALS OF THE BOOK OF REVELATION. BY THE WAY IT IS ALSO THE BIBLICAL NUMBER FOR SPIRITUAL COMPLETENESS OR PERFECTION.

AND NOW YOU WILL FIND THESE SEVEN THINGS IN MATTHEW 24 AN LUKE 21 AS WELL. NOW WHAT GENERATION IS THIS THAT SHALL NOT PASS? ITS SIMPLE, THE GENERATION THAT BEGAN WHEN THE FIG TREE WAS SET IN PLACE IN 1948.

NOW HOW LONG IS A GENERATION? WELL GENERALLY THEY COME IN THREE PERIODS OF TIME, 40 YEARS, 70 YEARS, AND 120 YEARS. NOW THE 40 YEAR GENERATION COMES FROM THE WANDERING IN THE WILDERNESS.

THE 70 YEAR GENERATION COMES FROM BABYLONIAN CAPTIVITY, AND THE 120 YEAR GENERATION COMES FROM GENESIS 6:3. WITH ISRAEL HAVING BEEN INDEED SET IN PLACE IN 1948, 40 YEARS WOULD BRING YOU TO 1988.

I SUBMIT TO YOU, THAT SINCE THE TIME OF 1988, WE HAVE BEEN ON GOD'S TIMETABLE, AND THE EVENTS THAT BRING ABOUT THE END OF THIS AGE, WILL FOLLOW DURING THIS PERIOD OF TIME THAT IS IN GOD'S TIMETABLE. NOW THE NUMBER 40 BY THE WAY IN BIBLICAL NUMBERS IS THE PERIOD OF PROBATION AND TESTING, REMEMBER ALSO THAT CHRIST HIMSELF WAS TESTED FOR 40 DAYS IN THE WILDERNESS. A WORD TO THE WISE IS SUFFICIENT.

ALRIGHT, LET'S GO TO MARK 11, AND LET'S TAKE A FEW VERSE TO ESTABLISH WHY JESUS WOULD HAVE US NOW WHY HE CURSED THIS FIG TREE.

MARK 11:11. "JESUS ENTERED JERUSALEM AND WENT TO THE TEMPLE, HE LOOKED AROUND AT EVERYTHING, BUT SINCE IT WAS ALREADY LATE, HE WENT OUT TO BETHANY WITH THE TWELVE".

NOW WHEN JESUS STOOD IN THE TEMPLE AND LOOKED ALL ROUND HIM AND AT ALL THE THINGS IN THE TEMPLE, WHAT DID HE SEE? WELL, IF YOU RECALL, ALL HE COULD SEE WAS THE MONEY CHANGERS, AND THE INFESTED DOVES THAT THEY WERE SELLING FOR A RIDICULOUS PRICE TO THE PEOPLE AS A SACRIFICE TO OFFER UP TO GOD.

NOW THESE INFESTED DOVES WERE SOLD FOR A PROFIT RIGHT IN THE TEMPLE. SO JESUS WAS LOOKING AROUND AND VIEWING THE SCENE, AND ALL THE FILTHINESS THAT WAS IN THE TEMPLE, AND THIS WAS BECAUSE OF THESE MONEYCHANGERS AND THEIR INFESTED DOVES.

SO IT WAS TOO LATE IN THE DAY TO DO ANYTHING, BUT HE HAD GOTTEN A GOOD VIEW OR A PICTURE OF ALL THESE THINGS THAT WERE GOING ON IN THE TEMPLE, HIS FATHER'S HOUSE, WHICH WAS TO BE A HOUSE OF PRAYER, THIS ANGERED JESUS, HE WAS VERY ANGRY.

MARK 11:12. "NOW THE NEXT DAY AS THEY WERE LEAVING BETHANY, JESUS WAS HUNGER. VERSE 13. SEEING IN THE DISTANCE A FIG TREE IN LEAF, HE WENT TO FIND OUT IF IT HAD ANY FRUIT WHEN HE REACH IT, HE FUND NOTHING BUT LEAVES, BECAUSE IT WAS NOT THE SEASON FOR FIGS".

NOW THE FIG TREE HAD NOTHING BUT LEAVES ON IT. NOW DO YOU REMEMBER WHAT YOU HAVE JUST LEARNED FROM MARK 13 ? IT HAD NOTHING BUT LEAVES. NOW STOP AND THINK ABOUT THIS VERSE FOR A MOMENT. THIS IS JESUS, THE SON OF GOD, THAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT. HE KNOW VERY WELL THAT IT WAS NOT THE SEASON FOR THE FIG TREE TO BE BEARING FRUIT.

BELOVED HE CREATED THESE FIG TREES, HE KNOW IT WAS NOT THE SEASON. SO WHAT DO YOU SUPPOSE HE IS TRYING TO TEACH HERE ? NOW THIS IS WHAT I WANT TO DETERMINE AS WE GO THROUGH THESE SCRIPTURES. JESUS CHRIST HIMSELF, WHO CREATED THESE VERY FIG TREE WENT THERE LOOKING FOR FRUIT, AND HE KNOW IT WAS NOT THE SEASON FOR THE FIG TREE TO BEAR FRUIT.SO LET'S FIND OUT WHAT HE IS TRYING TO TELL US.

MARK 11=14. "THEN HE SAID TO THE TREE, MAY NO ONE EVER EAT FRUIT FROM YOU AGAIN. AND HIS DISCIPLES HEARD HIM SAY IT".

NOW WHAT IS HE SAYING HERE ? WILL, GO BACK TO THE GARDEN AGAIN AND THINK ABOUT IT FOR A MOMENT. THE SIN IN THE GARDEN, THE PARTAKING OF THE FRUIT, AND JESUS MAKES THIS STATEMENT TALKING TO A TREE, SAYING MAY NO ONE EVER EAT FRUIT FROM YOU AGAIN. WILL RIGHT NOW A LIGHT SHOULD GO ON BELOVED.

MARK 11=15." AND ON REACHING JERUSALEM, JESUS ENTERED THE TEMPLE AREA AND BEGAN DRIVING OUT THOSE WHO WERE BUYING AND SELLING THERE. HE OVERTURNED THE TABLES OF THE MONEY CHANGERS AND THE BENCHES OF THOSE SELLING DOVES".

YOU SEE BELOVED, THESE MEN IN THE TEMPLE THEY WERE YOUR PROFITEERS, IN OTHER WORDS THEY WOULD SELL INFESTED DOVES TO THE PEOPLE WHO WOULD BUY AT THE LAST MINUTE TO TAKE IN AND OFFER UP TO GOD. YOU SEE, THESE MEN WERE ROBBERS AND THIEF, THEY WOULD ROB AND STEAL YOU BY SELLING YOU INVESTED DOVES, SO YOU COULD SACRIFICE IT TO GOD TO COVER YOUR SIN, YOU SEE THESE DOVES, WERE INFESTED, IT IS WRITTEN, "I DO NOT WANT YOUR BURNT OFFERING THAT HAVE SPOTS AND BLUSHES IN THEM, I JUST WANT YOUR LOVE"

(MARK 12:33) THESE ARE NOT MY WORDS, THESE ARE THE WORDS OF GOD.

AND YOU SEE BELOVED, THESE MONEYCHANGERS, AND THOSE THAT SAT IN THE SEATS, SELLING THOSE INFESTED DOVES, WOULD COLLECT THAT MONEY; AND THEY BECAME FAT AND RICH, BY KNOWING THAT YOU WERE UNABLE TO SEE THE TRUTH.

YOU SEE THIS MADE GODS TEMPLE FILTHY. AND NOW YOU CAN IMAGINE JUST HOW UPSET JESUS WAS WITH THIS. AND YET I TELL YOU, THAT IT IS NO DIFFERENT FROM TODAY. YOU SEE THAT THEY SPEND AS MUCH TIME PEDDLING THEIR OWN WORDS AND IMAGINATION IN THE CHURCHES TODAY, AND NEVER GET AROUND TO GODS WORDS.

IN OTHER WORDS THESE PASTOR AND PREACHERS THAT GIVE YOU ONE VERSE OUT OF THE BIBLE, AND THEN PUT IT DOWN, AND THEN START TO TELL YOU FAIRY TALE STORIES. YOU SEE THEY NEVER TRY TO BRING FORTH WHAT GOD IS TRYING TO TELL US, YOU SEE THEY DON'T TAKE THE TIME TO STUDY GODS WORD, CHAPTER BY CHAPTER, VERSE BY VERSE BY GOING BACK INTO THE HEBREW AND GREEK TO TAKE THE TRUTH MEANING OUT OF THE MANUSCRIPTS WHEREBY YOU CAN UNDERSTAND GODS WORD IN THE FULLEST.

YOU SEE THEY ARE THE ONES THAT WILL TELL YOU, "YOU" DON'T HAVE TO STUDY OR READ THE BOOK OF THE OLD TESTAMENT OR EVEN THE BOOK OF REVELATION, YOU DON'T HAVE TO STUDY GODS WORDS BECAUSE WE ARE NOT GOING TO BE HERE ANYWAY. NOW I WILL TELL YOU THAT THAT'S NOT IN GODS WORD, LIKE I SAID CHECK IT OUT FOR YOURSELF I DARE YOU.

YOU SEE, THAT WAS ONE OF THE FILTHY, THAT WAS IN THE TEMPLE AND NOW YOU CAN SEE THAT GOD WAS NOT HAPPY ABOUT THIS AND HE HAS NEVER BE HAPPY ABOUT THIS. YOU SEE BELOVED, THE NEW TESTAMENT IS HIDDEN IN THE OLD TESTAMENT, AND THE OLD TESTAMENT IS REVEALED IN THE NEW TESTAMENT. AND IF ANY OF THIS PASTOR OR PREACHER, TELL YOU THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO STUDY THE OLD TESTAMENT OR EVEN REVELATIONS, BY THE WAY, REV. MEANS TO REVEAL, TO UNCOVER, TO UNVEIL, YOU SEE THAT A STATEMENT IN ITSELF. (REV. 1:3). "BLESSED IS THE ONE WHO READS THE WORDS OF THIS PROPHECY".

DID YOU READ THAT, BLESSED IS YOU. NOW THE WORD READ, IN THE GREEK MEANS WITH UNDERSTANDING, YOU MUST UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU READ, AND STOP LISTENING TO THE TRADITION OF MAN. AND NOW FOR SOME REASON, YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU HAVE JUST READ, REMEMBER READ WITH UNDERSTANDING. "OK" LETS GO BACK TO OUR STUDY. NOW LETS FIND OUT WHAT JESUS DID, AND WHAT HE IS TALKING ABOUT, CONCERNING THE FIG TREE, WHEN HE SAID, MAN WILL NOT EAT OF IT ANYMORE FOREVER.

MARK 11:16. "AND WOULD NOT ALLOW ANYONE TO CARRY MERCHANDISE THOUGH THE TEMPLE COURTS. MARK 11:17. AND AS HE TAUGHT THEM, HE SAID, "IS IT NOT WRITTEN, MY HOUSE WILL BE CALLED A HOUSE OF PRAYER FOR ALL NATIONS"? BUT YOU HAVE MADE IT "A DEN OF ROBBERS".

"IS IT NOT WRITTEN"? BELOVED, HOW OFTEN JESUS USED THIS STATEMENT. HAVE YOU NOT READ? IT IS NOT WRITTEN, MY HOUSE SHALL BE CALLED OF ALL NATIONS THE HOUSE OF PRAYER? NOW DID YOU NOTICE HERE THAT HE SAID ALL NATIONS. YOU SEE HE GETS RIGHT TO THE POINT OF WHAT IS EXPECTED BY GOD. THAT IS, THAT ALL NATIONS USE IT AND REVERE IT AS A HOUSE OF PRAYER ONLY, AND YET WE FIND IN THE HOUSE OF GOD THAT THERE IS ROBBERS AND PROFITEERING, A DEN OF THIEVES.

AND NOW WE HAVE THE SCRIBES AND PHARISEES AGAIN, THE ONES THAT SIT IN THE SEAT OF MOSES, SUPPOSEDLY INTERPRETING AND PASSING FORTH THE WORD OF GOD. NOW BELOVED WHO ARE THESE SCRIBES AND PHARISEES, THESE ARE THE ONES THAT JESUS SAID, " WOE TO YOU" TEACHERS OF THE LAW AND PHARISEES, YOU HYPOCRITES, YOU SHUT THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IN MANS FACE. AND YOU YOURSELVES DO NOT ENTER IN NOR WILL YOU LET THOSE WHO ARE TRYING TO ENTER IN".  

MEANING THAT THEY ROB YOU OF THE WORD OF GOD, BY NOT GIVING YOU THE TRUTH.

MARK 11:18. "THE SCRIBES AND CHIEF PRIESTS HEARD IT, AND SOUGH HOW THEY MIGHT DESTROY HIM, (KILL HIM) FOR THEY FEARED HIM. BECAUSE ALL THE PEOPLE WAS ASTONISHED AT HIS DOCTRINE".

NOW WHY WERE THE PEOPLE ASTONISHED AT HIS DOCTRINE? BECAUSE THEY KNOW THE TRUTH WHEN THEY HEARD IT, JUST AS YOU SHOULD KNOW THE TRUTH WHEN YOU HEAR IT, AND WHEN YOU ARE BEING LAID TO. THAT IS WHY THEY FOLLOWED JESUS THAT IS WHY THE MULTITUDES GATHERED AROUND HIM, BECAUSE THEY NOW THE TRUTH WHEN THEY HEARD IT.

NOW WHAT DID THE SCRIBES AND CHIEF PRIESTS DO? THEY SOUGHT HOW THEY MIGHT KILL HIM. THEY WANTED TO DESTROY HIM. WHY BECAUSE THEY ARE MURDERERS, AND HAVE BEEN MURDERERS FROM THE BEGINNING. NOW YOU SEE, THIS IS THE WHOLE POINT THAT JESUS IS TRYING TO MAKE HERE. READ, JOHN 8:42;44.

MARK 11:19. "AND WHEN EVENING CAME, THEY WENT OUT OF THE CITY. MARK 11:20. "AND IN THE MORNING, AS THEY WENT ALONG, THEY SAW THE FIG TREE WITHERED FROM THE ROOTS".

MARK 11:21. "AND PETER REMEMBERED AND SAID TO JESUS, "MASTER, LOOK. THE FIG TREE YOU CURSED HAS WITHERED." YOU SEE THE FIG TREE THAT JESUS' CURSE HAD WITHERED UP AND DIED".

MARK 11:22. "AND JESUS ANSWERED AND SAID UNTO THEM, "HAVE FAITH IN GOD."

NOW WHAT WAS JESUS SAYING HERE? HE IS SAYING JUST AS YOU HAVE SEEN THIS FIG TREE BE CURSED AND WITHER AND DIE. SO IN THESE END DAYS WHEN I RETURN, ONCE AGAIN THIS FIG TREE, THIS NATION, WILL BE CURSED AND IT WILL DRY UP AND WITHER AWAY. NOW I HAVE DONE IT ONCE, I WILL DO IT AGAIN. YOU SEE BELOVED, IT IS A SIGN FOR THAT WHICH IS TO COME.

MARK 11:23. "I WILL TELL YOU THE TRUTH, IF ANYONE SAYS TO THIS MOUNTAIN, "GO" THROW YOURSELF INTO THE SEA, AND DOES NOT DOUBT IN HIS HEART (WHICH MEANS IN YOUR MIND), BUT BELIEVES THAT WHAT HE SAYS WILL HAPPEN, IT WILL BE DONE FOR HIM".

NOW WHAT IS THIS MOUNTAIN THAT IS BEING SPOKEN OF? NOW I HOPE THAT YOU HAVE BEEN TOLD BEFORE THAT MOUNTAIN OR MOUNTAINS ARE INDICATIVE OF NATION OR NATIONS.

IN THESE END DAYS IT IS THAT BAD FIG NATION, NOT THE GOOD FIG. REMEMBER THERE IS A GOOD FIG AND A BAD FIG, NOW AS WE CONTINUE ON, IT WILL BECOME CLEAR TO YOU. NOW YOU MIGHT ASK, WHAT IS THIS BAD FIG NATION? IT IS THE ONE WORLDISM, THE ONE WORLD GOVERNMENTAL SYSTEM, THAT FIRST BEAST OF REVELATION 13. THE BEAST WITH THE SEVEN HEADS AND TEN HORNS, AND UPON THEIR HORNS TEN CROWNS.

YOU SEE THAT NATIONS IS THE ONE WORLD SYSTEM. NOW WHAT ABOUT THE SEVEN HEADS AND THE TEN HORNS, AND THE TEN CROWNS UPON THEIR HORNS, WHAT IS THAT? WILL YOU SEE THE SEVEN HEADS, ARE THE (SEVEN DOMINANS OF THE WORLD, THE KINGDOMS OF THE GLOBE, THE RULERS OF THE NATIONS). AND THE TEN HORNS, WILL THE NUMBER 10, IN BIBLICAL MATHEMATIC MEANS (TESTIMONY AND THE LAW) AND NOW THE HORNS, ALWAYS MEANS POWER, AND THE TEN CROWNS, MEANS RULER SHIP, YOU SEE, THIS BEST, WHICH IS THE BAD FIG, WHICH IS THE BAD FIG NATION, WHICH IS THAT SAME FIG TREE, THAT JESUS CHRIST ON THE WAY BETHANY, IS THE NATION OF THE KENITES.

AND THEY ARE THE SONS OF CAIN. YOU SEE, THE BEAST WILL GIVE THE POWER AND THE RULER SHIP AND THE LAW TO THE ONE WORLD SYSTEM WHICH IS THE ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT. BUT YOU SEE GOD IS ALWAYS IN CONTROL.

NOW IN MARK 11:23. "I WILL TELL YOU THE TRUTH, IF ANYONE SAYS TO THIS MOUNTAIN, "GO" THROW YOURSELF INTO THE SEA, AND DOES NOT DOUBT IN HIS HEART BUT BELIEVES THAT WHAT HE SAYS WILL HAPPEN, IT WILL BE DONE FOR HIM".

NOW HE IS NOT TALKING ABOUT HIS NATURAL CREATION HERE, OF HIS MOUNTAINS AND MOUNTAIN RANGES. "YOU SEE HE LIKES HIS MOUNTAINS RIGHT WHERE HE HAS THEM, AND HE HAS NO INTENTION OF MOVING THEM, BECAUSE YOU WANT TO DISPLAY YOUR WALK WITH GOD BY MOVING SOME MOUNTAIN.

HEAR WHAT THE SPIRIT IS SAYING TO YOU ABOUT THESE MOUNTAINS, YOU SEE HE IS TALKING ABOUT A NATION, THE ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT SYSTEM THAT IS ALREADY EVEN NOW IN EXISTENCE AND GAINING IN POWER AND CONTROL EVERYDAY.

ALRIGHT, LET'S STUDY SOME MORE MATERIAL ON THIS GOOD FIG AND THE BAD FIG FROM JEREMIAH 24, VERSE 1.

JEREMIAH IS SPEAKING HERE. "THE LORD SHOWED ME, AND, BEHOLD, TWO BASKETS OF FIGS WERE SET BEFORE THE TEMPLE OF THE LORD, AFTER THAT NEBUCHADNEZZAR KING OF BABYLON HAD CARRIED AWAY CAPTIVE JEHOIAKIM KING OF JUDAH, AND THE PRINCES OF JUDAH, WITH THE CARPENTERS AND SMITHS, FROM JERUSALEM, AND HAD BROUGHT THEM TO BABYLON. NOW LET ME ASK YOU A QUESTION, WHERE WAS THE TEMPLE OF THE LORD? IT WAS IN JERUSALEM".

NOW LET THESE THINGS START SINKING IN . THIS IS THE END GENERATION, HEAR WHAT THE SPIRIT IS SAYING. HISTORICALLY SPEAKING, IN JERUSALEM'S TIME, THE MAJORITY OF THE PEOPLE WERE ALREADY TAKEN INTO CAPTIVITY INTO BABYLON, AND THERE WAS ONLY A HANDFUL OF PEOPLE THAT HAD NOT BEEN TAKEN AT THIS POINT, BUT THE REST WERE ALREADY IN CAPTIVITY.

IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU UNDERSTAND THAT, BECAUSE IT RELATES TO THESE END DAYS, AND IT IS ALREADY SO. YOU SEE, MOST OF THE PEOPLE OUT THERE ARE ALREADY IN THE BABYLONIAN CAPTIVITY OF THE END TIMES, MYSTERY BABYLON, AND THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW IT. TRULY THE PROPHETS SPEAK TO US TODAY IF YOU WILL TAKE THE TIME TO HEAR WITH AN EAR, THAT UNDERSTANDS.

JEREMIAH 24:2. "ONE BASKET HAS VERY GOOD FIGS, EVEN LIKE THE FIGS THAT ARE FIRST RIPE, AND THE OTHER BASKET HAD VERY BAD FIGS, WHICH COULD NOT BE EATEN, THEY WERE SO BAD THEY COULD NOT BE EATEN".

NOW WHAT ARE THE FIGS THAT ARE FIRST RIPE? THEY ARE THE FIRST FRUITS, THE VERY BEST, THE ELECT OF THESE END TIMES. THOSE THAT ARE RESERVED OR SET ASIDE, THOSE SPOKEN OF IN ROMANS , AND IN THE LAST VERSE OF PSALMS 22. READ IT.

YOU SEE THESE ARE THE FIRST FRUITS. NOW THESE BAD FIGS ARE THOSE GOAT FIGS, THE CAPRI FIGS, AND GETTING RIGHT TO THE HEART OF THE MATTER, THOSE BAD FIGS ARE THE ("KENITES"). YOU SEE, WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THE ("KENITE NATION") HERE, WHICH IS THE SONS OF CAIN, WHICH IS THE CAPRI FIGS, AND THE GOATS.

NOW DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN JESUS WAS TALKING ABOUT SEPARATING THE SHEEP ON ONE HAND AND THE GOATS ON THE OTHER? MATTHEW

25:31. "WHEN THE SON OF MAN SHALL COME IN HIS GLORY, AND ALL THE HOLY ANGELS WITH HIM, THEN SHALL HE SIT UPON THE THRONE OF HIS GLORY. MATTHEW"

25:32. "AND BEFORE HIM SHALL BE GATHERED ALL NATIONS WHICH MEANS (PEOPLE), AND HE SHALL SEPARATE THEM ONE FROM ANOTHER AS A SHEPHERD DIVIDETH HIS SHEEP FROM THE GOATS".

MATTHEW 25:33. "AND HE SHALL SET THE SHEEP ON HIS RIGHT HAND, BUT THE GOATS ON THE LEFT".

BELOVED, HEAR WHAT THE SPIRIT IS SAYING CONCERNING THESE GOOD AND BAD FIGS THE FIRST FRUITS AND THE GOATS. NOW ON THE RIGHT SIDE, OR THE RIGHT HAND, ALWAYS MEANS RIGHTEOUS, AND ON THE LEFT SIDE, WILL YOU NO WHAT IT IS, IT'S THAT BAD SEED THAT CORRUPT FIG TREE, THAT NATION THAT IS OF THE KENITES, WHICH WILL RUN THAT ONE WORLD SYSTEM. YOU SEE GOD HIMSELF WILL SEPARATE THE SHEEPS FROM THE GOATS.

JEREMIAH 24:3. "THEN SAID THE LORD UNTO ME, WHAT DO YOU SEE JEREMIAH? AND I SAID FIGS, THE GOOD FIGS, THEY ARE VERY GOOD, AND THE EVIL, VERY EVIL, THAT CANNOT BE EATEN, THEY ARE SO EVIL".

NOW LET ME ASK YOU A QUESTION. WHO IS THE EVIL ONE ? AND HOW CAN A PIECE OF FRUIT BE EVIL? WELL THE ANSWER TO THE FIRST QUESTION IS (SATAN ). AND JUST FOR THE RECORD, I NEVER SEEN OR ATE AN EVIL PIECE OF FRUIT.

NOW WHAT DO YOU THINK GOD IS SAYING THROUGH THIS PROPHET JEREMIAH? AN EVIL PIECE OF FRUIT ? AGAIN THINK BACK TO THE GARDEN. WHY? BECAUSE OF THAT TREE OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL., AND REMEMBER GOD CREATED THE FRUIT AND IT WAS GOOD.

JEREMIAH 24:4. "AGAIN THE WORD OF THE LORD CAME UNTO ME, SAYING; JEREMIAH 24:5. "THUS SAITH THE LORD, THE GOD OF ISRAEL, LIKE THESE GOOD FIGS, SO WILL I ACKNOWLEDGE THEM THAT ARE CARRIED AWAY CAPTIVE OF JUDAH, WHO I HAVE SENT OUT OF THIS PLACE INTO THE LAND OF THE CHALDEANS WHICH MEANS (CONFUSEMENT) FOR THEIR GOOD".

YOU SEE, GOD SENT THEM INTO CAPTIVITY FOR THEIR GOOD. NOW REMEMBER IN JEREMIAH'S DAY, AT THAT PARTICULAR TIME, OLD ZEDEKIAH AND THE REST OF THEM WERE SAYING, "WE'RE NOT GOING INTO CAPTIVITY," IT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN, WE DON'T HAVE TO WORRY JUST LISTEN TO ME.WELL DOES THAT RING A BELL? YOU SEE, THEY WOULDN'T HERE THE WORD OF THE PROPHET.

NOW AS FOR TODAY FRIENDS, I SUBMIT TO YOU THAT MYSTERY BABYLON IS ALREADY UPON US, IT IS ALREADY PUTTING ITS HANDS OUT IN TO THE WORLD. MYSTERY BABYLON IS ACTIVE AND LIVE AT THIS VERY MOMENT, AND THE MAJORITY OUT THERE, ESPECIALLY THOSE WHO THINK THEY ARE GOING TO FLY AWAY IN SOME PRE-TRIBULATION RAPTURE ARE ALREADY HEADING INTO THAT CAPTIVITY, ALL THE WHILE CLAIMING THAT THEY ARE NOT GOING INTO CAPTIVITY BECAUSE THEY ARE GOING TO FLY AWAY, WHILE DISPUTING AND REFUSING TO HEAR THE WORD OF THE LORD.

YOU SEE THE TEACHING OF A PRE-TRIBULATION RAPTURE IS ONE OF THE GREATEST DECEPTIONS IN THE CHURCHES TODAY.

JEREMIAH 24:6. "MY EYES WILL WATCH OVER THEM FOR THEIR GOOD, AND I WILL BRING THEM BACK TO THIS LAND. I WILL BUILD THEM UP AND NOT TEAR THEM DOWN, I WILL PLANT THEM AND NOT UPROOT THEM".

NOW WHO ARE THESE THAT GOD WILL SET HIS EYE UPON FOR GOOD ? WILL, THOSE THAT HE TOOK INTO CAPTIVITY OF JUDAH.

JEREMIAH 24:7. "I WILL GIVE THEM A HEART (MIND) TO KNOW ME, THAT I AM THE LORD. THEY WILL BE MY PEOPLE AND I WILL BE THEIR GOD, FOR THEY WILL RETURN TO ME WITH ALL THEIR HEART".

UNDERSTAND THIS, FOR TODAY IT IS HAPPENING, GOD IS CALLING OUT A PEOPLE FROM AMONGST ALL THE NATIONS, A PEOPLE THAT ARE HIS PEOPLE.

JEREMIAH 24:8. "BUT LIKE THE EVIL FIGS, WHICH ARE SO BAD THEY CANNOT BE EATEN, SAYS THE LORD, SO WILL I DEAL WITH ZEDEKIAH KING OF JUDAH, HIS OFFICIALS AND THE RESIDUE FROM JERUSALEM, WHETHER THEY REMAIN IN THIS LAND OF LIVE IN EGYPT".

NOW REMEMBER THAT THE LAND OF EGYPT IS REPRESENTATIVE OF CAPTIVITY. NOW WHAT IS THIS RESIDUE? THIS RESIDUE IS THE RELIGIOUS MEN WHO GO AROUND MAKING UP THEIR OWN RELIGIONS, TEACHING THE TRADITIONS OF MAN RATHER THAN THE LIVING WORD OF GOD. AND IN TURN, THEY NOT ONLY TAKE THEMSELVES TO HELL, BUT THE PEOPLE WITH THEM.

REMEMBER WHAT JESUS TOLD THE PHARISEES. "YOU DON'T ENTER IN, NOR DO YOU LET THE CHILDREN ENTER IN, AND IN THE SAME WAY BELOVED, THEY DO THE SAME THING TODAY, BY TEACHING YOU THE TRADITIONS OF MAN, AND NOT THE WORD OF GOD WHEREBY THEY CAN KNOW HIM.

JEREMIAH 24:9. "AND I WILL DELIVER THEM (THAT RESIDUE) TO BE INTO ALL THE KINGDOM OF THE EARTH FOR THEIR HURT, TO BE A REPROACH AND A PROVERB, A TAUNT AND A CURES, IN ALL PLACES WHETHER I SHALL DRIVE THEM".

NOW WHAT IS THIS CURSE, YOU WILL FIND OUT AS YOU CONTINUE TO STUDY ALONG IN THIS, THIS CURE IS THE SAME CURE THAT CHRIST GAVE WHEN HE CURSED THE FIG TREE. YOU SEE, IT IS THAT SAME CURSE. AND WE WILL FIND ANOTHER CONNECTION VERY SHORTLY INVOLVING THAT CURES.

JEREMIAH 24:10. "AND I WILL SEND THE SWORD, THE FAMINE, AND THE PESTILENCE, AMONG THEM, TILL THEY BE CONSUMED FROM OFF THE LAND THAT I GAVE UNTO THEM AND TO THEIR FATHER".

NOW THAT WORD CONSUMED, REMEMBER THAT GOD IS THAT CONSUMING FIRE. SO HE IS GOING TO TAKE BOTH THE FALSE TEACHERS AND PROPHETS AND THE PEOPLE WHO ALLOW THEM SELF TO BE DECEIVED BY THOSE FALSE TEACHERS AND PROPHETS.

THOSE WHO WILL NOT TAKE THE TIME BECAUSE THEY DON'T CARE ENOUGH, THEY DON'T LOVE THE FATHER ENOUGH TO OPEN HIS BOOK, HIS LIVING WORD, AND TO STUDY IT FOR THEM SELF, TO PROVE OUT FOR THEM SELF, AND TO TEST THEIR TEACHERS.

WHY BECAUSE SOME TEACHERS MAY BE TRAINED AND EDUCATED, AND HOLD ALL THE DEGREE IN THE WORLD, AND YET BE UTTERLY BLIND TO THE GREAT SPIRITUAL REVELATIONS OF THE WORD OF GOD, AND WHILE A POOR, UNEDUCATED BELIEVER WILL SEE TRUTHS AND REVELATIONS, AND WITH THE HELP OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, BE READING CHAPTER BY CHAPTER, AND VERSE BY VERSE, YOU SEE BELOVED HIS WORD IS TRUTH AND THE ONLY TRUTH.

JESUS HIMSELF SAID, "EXCEPT A MAN BE BORN AGAIN HE CANNOT (SEE) THESE THINGS." YOU SEE THEY ARE SPIRITUAL THINGS, THE SPIRITUAL TRUTHS, AND THE SPIRITUAL MAN MUST BE SPIRITUALLY DISCERNED.

YOU SEE BELOVED, WITHOUT A SPIRITUAL REBIRTH, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR THE NATURAL MAN TO BEHOLD HIS GLORIES. YOU SEE AS I SAID BEFORE, DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR THESE THINGS AND DON'T TAKE ANY OTHER MANS WORD, BUT YOU CHECK THEM OUT YOURSELF AND SEE IF IT IS NOT WRITTEN FOR ONCE IN YOU LIFE BEFORE IT IS TO LATE.

YOU SEE, HE IS GOING TO SEND THE SWORD, THE FAMINE, AND THE PESTILENCE.

NOW WHAT IS THIS FAMINE? IT IS THE FAMINE OF THE END TIMES, THAT WHICH IS SPOKEN OF IN AMOS 8:11. "BEHOLD, THE DAY COME, SAITH THE LORD GOD, THAT I WILL SEND A FAMINE IN THE LAND, NOT A FAMINE OF BREAD, NOR A THIRST FOR WATER, BUT OF HEARING THE WORDS OF GOD".

NOW THE FAMINE OF THE END TIMES IS NOT FOR BREAD, BUT FOR THE WORD OF GOD AS IT IS WRITTEN. YOU SEE YOU ARE NOT GETTING THE WORD OF GOD IN THE CHURCHES OF TODAY, BUT YOU ARE GETTING SALVATION AND BAPTISM OVER AND OVER.

NOW THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH SALVATION AND BAPTISM, AS BEAUTIFUL AS IT IS, BUT YOU SEE THAT ALL THEY TEACH YOU. AND ON SOME OCCASIONS, THEY WILL TICKLE YOUR EARS WITH SOMETHING ELSE AND YOU COME AWAY FEELING GOOD.

BUT IF YOU ARE ASKED WHAT DID YOU LEARN? OR WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT YOUR CREATOR, NOW THAT YOU DID NOT KNOW BEFORE YOU CAME TODAY ? YOU SEE, YOU HAVE NO ANSWER, FOR YOU HAVE NOT STUDIED HIS WORD.

BUT HAVE LISTENED TO THE TRADITIONS OF MAN. TRADITIONS THAT WILL LEAD YOU INTO THIS CONFESSMENT BABYLON, FOR THE MAJORITY WILL BE DECEIVED IN THESE END DAYS. NOW DON'T YOU BE ONE OF THEM!

NOW WHAT IS THIS PESTILENCE? THE PESTILENCE IS (DESTROYING THE SPEECH). PESTILENCE FROM THE HEBREW DICTIONARY MEANS, IN THE SENSE OF DESTROYING, OF WORDS, TO SPEAK, TO SUBDUE, TO TALK, TEACH, WORK.

THIS PESTILENCE IS THE FALSE TEACHINGS AND THE TRADITIONS OF MAN THAT ARE TAUGHT IN THE CHURCHES TODAY, THAT LEAVES YOU TOTALLY IN THE FAMINE. YOU SEE, YOU MUST COME OUT OF THESE CHURCHES THAT ARE FEEDING YOU THE PESTILENCE AND CAUSING YOU TO BE FAMISHED.

HEAR WHAT THE WORD OF THE LORD SAYS, IT IS WRITTEN THAT THE HOUSE OF GOD BETHEL, SHALL COME TO NOTHING, NOW EVEN IN THE HEBREW ITS MEANING IS, VANITY, WICKEDNESS, FALSE, AND IDOL.

AMOS 5:4;5. "THIS IS WHAT THE LORD SAYS TO THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL. "SEEK ME AND LIVE" DO NOT SEEK BETHEL, DO NOT GO TO GILGAL, DO NOT JOURNEY TO BEERSHEBA. FOR GILGAL WILL SURELY GO INTO EXILE, AND BETHEL WILL BE REDUCED TO NOTHING".

DID YOU READ THAT? THE HOUSE OF GOD SHALL BECOME UNRIGHTEOUS, FALSE, WICKED, AND AN IDOL. YOU SEE BELOVED, SOME OF THESE CHURCHES THAT HAVE THESE FALSE TEACHERS AND PROPHETS THEY ALSO CALLED THEIR CHURCHES THE HOUSE OF GOD.

NOW YOU KNOW WHAT OUR FATHER IS TRYING TO TELL YOU ABOUT THESE CHURCHES. SEEK THE LORD, AND YOU SHALL LIVE, BUT DO NOT SEEK BETHEL, THE FALSE HOUSE OF GOD.

NOW IN THE HEBREW THE WORD BETHEL, AND THE WORD NOUGHT WHICH COMES FROM THE KING JAMES VERSION THAT ALSO COMES FROM THE HEBREW WORD, AND ITS MEANING IS VANITY, WICKEDNESS, AND IDOL, FALSE, UNRIGHTEOUS, SORROW, UNJUST, VAIN, AND ALSO EVIL.

YOU SEE IF YOU SEEK THE HOUSE OF THE LORD, YOU SHALL LIVE BUT SEEK NOT BETHEL FOR IT IS WRITTEN, THAT MANY COME IN MY NAME.

ALRIGHT, LET'S GO NOW TO ISAIAH 34, AND TAKE A FEW VERSE HERE. AGAIN, KEEP IN MIND, THE SUBJECT IS THE FIG TREE.

ISAIAH 34:1. "COME NEAR, YOU NATIONS, AND LISTEN, PAY ATTENTION, YOU PEOPLE! LET THE EARTH HEAR, AND ALL THAT IS IN IT, THE WORLD AND ALL THAT COMES OUT OF IT!

NOW IT IS SAYING, LET ALL THE NATIONS OF THE WORLD, ALL MANKIND COME NEAR TO HEAR WITH EYES TO SEE AND EARS TO HEAR, WITH UNDERSTANDING.

ISAIAH 34:2. "THE LORD IS ANGRY WITH ALL NATIONS, HIS WRATH IS UPON ALL THEIR ARMIES. HE WILL TOTALLY DESTROY THEM, HE WILL GIVE THEM OVER TO SLAUGHTER".

WHAT IS HE SAYING HERE? WELL THAT GOD PUT A DIVINE BAN ON THESE PEOPLE. WELL NOW, HOW ARE THESE PEOPLE ? WILL THE NEXT VERSES WILL TELL YOU.

ISAIAH 34:3. "THEIR SLAIN WILL BE THROWN OUT, THEIR DEAD BODIES WILL SEND UP STENCH, THE MOUNTAINS, WHICH MEANS (NATION) WILL BE SOAKED WITH THEIR BLOOD".

NOW WHO ARE THESE NATIONS? IT IS (IdUMEA), WHICH IS (EdOM), ROSH, WHICH IS NOW CALLED (RUSSIA).

NOW WHAT IS THIS ALL ABOUT? YOU SEE BELOVED, IT IS THE FAKE PEACE, PEACE, WHEN THERE IS NO PEACE. YOU SEE, ONLY GOD CAN BRING PEACE TO THE WORLD NOT MAN OR SOME NATION.

JEREMIAH 6:14. "THEY HAVE HEALED ALSO THE HURT OF THE DAUGHTER OF MY PEOPLE SLIGHTLY, SAYING, PEACE, PEACE, WHEN THERE IS NO PEACE".

NOW DON'T YOU BE SUCKED IN BY THOSE THAT WILL TELL YOU THAT THERE IS PEACE. DO NOT BE FALLEN IN BY THOSE THAT WOULD TELL YOU THAT THE ONE WORLD SYSTEM THAT IS COMING INTO POWER, GOING TO BRING PEACE. FOR GOD HAS WARNED US THROUGH OUT HIS WORD, THAT WHEN THEY CRY PEACE, PEACE, WATCH OUT, FOR THEN SUDDEN DESTRUCTION COMETH UPON THEM.

1 THESSALONIANS 5:3. "FOR WHEN THEY SHALL SAY, PEACE AND SAFETY, THEN SUDDEN DESTRUCTION COMETH UPON THEM, AS LABOR PAINS ON A PREGNANT WOMAN, AND THEY WILL NOT ESCAPE".

"NOW CAN YOU HEAR THE WORD OF THE LORD?" NOW ALL YOU HEAR IS OF THIS NATIONS, CRYING PEACE, PEACE, AND PUSHING FOR PEACE AND A ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT SYSTEM. YOU SEE BELOVED, THESE ARE THE SIGNS, CAN YOU SEE AND HEAR? ITS TIME TO WAKE UP.

ISAIAH 34:4. "AND ALL THE HOST OF HEAVEN SHALL BE DISSOLVED, AND THE HEAVENS SHALL BE ROLLED TOGETHER AS A SCROLL, AND ALL THEIR HOST SHALL FALL DOWN, AS THE LEAF FALLETH OFF FROM THE VINE, AND AS A FALLING FIG FROM THE FIG TREE".

NOW, WE KNOW WHEN A LEAF WITHERS AND FALLS OFF, IT JUST KIND OF FLOATS DOWN TO THE GROUND, BUT WHEN THAT OVERRIPE, PLUMP OLD FIG FALLS TO THE GROUND, IT GOES PLOP AND SPLITS WIDE OPEN, YOU SEE IT SPLATTERS. NOW DON'T YOU BE ONE OF THOSE FIGS THAT IS HARVESTED OUT OF SEASON BECAUSE YOU HAVE LISTENED TO THE TRADITION OF MAN AND NOT STUDIED GOD'S WORD.

ISAIAH 34:5. "FOR MY SWORD SHALL BE BATHED IN HEAVEN, BEHOLD, IT SHALL COME UPON (ILDUMA), AND UPON THE PEOPLE OF MY CURSE, TO JUDGEMENT".

NOW WHAT IS THE SWORD OF THE LORD? THE SWORD OF THE LORD IS THE TRUTH. OK DON'T FALL ASLEEP ON ME, REMEMBER READ WITH UNDERSTANDING JUST LET IT FLOW.

REVELATION 1:16. IN HIS RIGHT HAND HE HELD SEVEN STARS, AND OUT OF HIS MOUTH CAME A SHARP DOUBLE-EDGED SWORD. HIS FACE WAS LIKE THE SUN SHINING IN ALL ITS BRILLIANCE.

NOW LIKE I SAID BEFORE, ON THE RIGHT HAND, ALWAYS MEANS RIGHTEOUS AND WHAT ABOUT THESE SEVEN STARS? WELL THE SEVEN STARS ARE THE ANGELS OR MESSENGERS, OF THE SEVEN CHURCHES AND THE SEVEN LAMP STANDS ARE THE CHURCHES. (REV. 1:20).

YOU SEE CHRIST IS THE HUSBAND, WE ARE THE SUPPOSE TO BE HIS BRIDE. THE CHURCH IS THE PEOPLE, AND GOD IS THE HEAD OF THE CHURCH

REV. 19:7. "LET US REJOICE AND BE GLAD AND GIVE HIM GLORY FOR THE WEDDING OF THE LAMB HAS COME, AND HIS BRIDE HAS MADE HERSELF, READY.

NOW BELOVED, ARE YOU READY ? ARE YOU READY TO PARTAKE OF THE WEDDING OF THE LAMB. ARE YOU DRESSED IN BRIGHT AND CLEAN FINE LINEN? OR ARE YOU PARTAKING OF THAT BAD FIG TREE, WHICH IS THAT BAD SEED LINE. WHICH ARE THE KENITES, THE ONES THAT TEACHES THE TRADITION OF MAN, THE ONES THAT WILL ROB YOU AND STEAL YOU, OF GODS WORD, AND TURN GOD'S HOUSE INTO THE HOUSE OF BETHEL WHERE IT IS WRITTEN THAT IT SHALL COME TO NOTHING.

EPHESIANS 6:17. "AND TAKE THE HELMET OF SALVATION AND THE SWORD OF THE SPIRIT, WHICH IS THE WORD OF GOD.

NOW BELOVED LET'S BE MATURE ABOUT THIS, WHAT DOES A HELMET DO? IT PARTAKES YOUR HEAD. WHEREBY YOU WON'T GET HURT.

OK NOW WHAT IN YOUR HEAD? YOUR MIND, THAT GRAY MATTER THAT MAKES YOU THINK. WHEREBY WHEN YOU READ GODS WORD, SO WHEN YOU LISTEN TO MAN, YOU CAN DETERMINE BETWEEN THE GOOD AND THE BAD.

YOU SEE BELOVED, GOD GAVE YOU THE HELMET WHICH IS SALVATION, WHICH COMES FROM JESUS CHRIST. AND NOT FROM MANS' FALSE VISIONS AND DELUSIONS WHICH COMES OUT OF THEIR OWN MINDS.

OK NOW, REMEMBER JESUS CURSED THE FIG TREE. THERE IS A GOOD FIG AND A BAD FIG. IT WAS THE GOAT FIG TREE THAT HE CURSED. THAT IS WHY JESUS SAID, "LEARN THE PARABLE OF THE FIG TREE." NOW, WHO IS THE PEOPLE THAT JESUS CURSED? IT IS THE KENITES, AND IT GOES ALL THE WAY BACK TO THE GARDEN OF EDEN.

ISAIAH 34:7. "AND THE UNICORNS SHALL COME DOWN WITH THEM, AND THE BULLOCKS WITH THE BULLS, AND THEIR LAND SHALL BE SOAKED WITH BLOOD, AND THEIR DUST MADE FAT WITH FATNESS.

ISAIAH 34:8. "FOR IT IS THE DAY OF THE LORD'S VENGEANCE, AND THE YEAR OF TRETRIBUTION FOR THE CONTROVERSY OF ZION.

NOW WHAT IS THE DAY OF LORDS VENGEANCE? IS THE LORD'S DAY, REMEMBER READ IT.

NOW DOES THIS SOUND KIND OF FAMILIAR? WELL LET'S CHECK IT OUT. LET'S QUICKLY G TO REVELATION 6.

REVELATION 6:13. "AND THE STAR OF HEAVEN FELL UNTO THE EARTH EVEN AS A FIG TREE CASETH HER UNTIMELY FIGS, WHEN SHE IS SHAKEN OF A MIGHTY WIND.

REVELATION 6:14. "AND THE HEAVEN DEPARTED AS A SCROLL WHEN IT IS ROLLED TOGETHER, AND EVER MOUNTAIN AND ISLAND WERE MOVED OUT OF THEIR PLACES.

NOW WHAT ARE THESE MOUNTAINS AND ISLANDS? THEY ARE THAT ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT SYSTEM, THAT ONE WORLDISM THAT IS EVEN NOW COMING INTO BEING. DO NOT GET CAUGHT IN IT. IT IS THE FIRST BEAST OF REVELATION 13. DO NOT BE ONE OF THOSE FIGS HARVESTED OUT OF SEASON, BECAUSE YOU HAVE BEEN LED DOWN THE PRIMROSE PATH BY THE FALSE PROPHETS AND TEACHERS, ESPECIALLY THOSE THAT WOULD TACH YOU TO FLY AWAY TO SAVE YOUR SOUL IN A PRE-TRIBULATION RAPTURE WHEN (EZEKIEL 13) TELLS US THAT GOD HATES THOSE THAT TEACH HIS CHILDREN TO FLY AWAY.

REVELATION 6:15. "THEN THE KINGS OF THE EARTH, THE PRINCES, THE GENERALS, THE RICH, THE MIGHTY, AND EVERY SLAVE AND EVERY FREE MAN HID IN CAVES AND AMONG THE ROCKS OF THE MOUNTAINS.

NOW WHAT DOES THIS MEANS? WELL IT MEANS THAT, ALL THESE PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO HIDE FROM THE REAL MESSIAH, JESUS CHRIST.

REVELATION 6:16. "THEY CALLED TO THE MOUNTAINS AND THE ROCKS, "FALL ON US AND HIDE US FROM THE FACE OF HE WHO SITS ON THE THRONE AND FROM THE WRATH OF THE LAMB!"

NOW WHAT IS GOD SAYING HERE? WELL AT THAT TIME ALL THOSE GREAT PASTORS AND TEACHERS, ALL THE BIG SO CALLED SPIRITUAL MEN OF THE CHURCH, WHO HAVE BEEN TEACHING THE PEOPLE THE TRADITIONS OF MAN RATHER THAN GOD'S LIVING WORD CHAPTER BY CHAPTER VERSE BY VERSE, LINE BY LINE. THEY WILL KNOW AND SEE THE TRUTH AND REALIZE THAT THEY HAVE CAUSED GOD'S CHILDREN TO STUMBLE, TO BE CAUGHT IN THE CAPTIVITY, AND IN THEIR SHAME AND FEAR, THAT PARALYZING FEAR, THEY WILL CRY OUT FOR THE ROCK TO FALL ON THEM AND TO HIDE THEM, AND GOD WILL OBLIGE THEM..

ALRIGHT, LET'S GO TO GENESIS 3:1. AND TAKE A COUPLE OF VERSES TO PUT IN YOUR MIND WHAT THIS PARABLE OF THE FIG TREE IS ALL ABOUT.

GENESIS 3:1. "NOW THE SERPENT WAS MORE CRAFTY THAN ANY BEAST OF THE FIELD WHICH THE LORD GOD HAD MADE. AND HE SAID UNTO THE WOMAN YE HATH GOD SAID, YE SHALL NOT EAT OF EVERY TREE OF THE GARDEN.

YOU SEE BELOVED, THIS SERPENT IS NONE OTHER THEN SATAN HIMSELF.

REVELATION 20:2. "AND HE LAID HOLD ON THE DRAGON, THAT OLD SERPENT, WHICH IS THE DEVIL, AND SATAN, AND BOUND HIM A THOUSAND YEARS.

GENESIS 3:3. "BUT OF THE FRUIT OF THE TREE WHICH IS IN THE MIDST OF THE GARDEN, GOD HATH SAID, YE SHALL NOT EAT OF IT, NEITHER SHALL YE TOUCH IT, LEST YOU DIE.

NOW THIS WORD ("TOUCH") IN THE HEBREW IS NAGA, AND ONE OF ITS MEANING IS TO LIE WITH A WOMAN. LIKE I SAID BEFORE CHECK IT OUT FOR YOURSELF.

GENESIS 3:4. "AND THE SERPENT SAID UNTO THE WOMAN, YE SHALL NOT SURELY DIE.

GENESIS 3:5. "FOR GOD DOES NOW THAT IN THE DAY YE EAT THEREOF, THEN YOU EYES SHALL BE OPENED, AND YE SHALL BE AS GODS, KNOWING GOOD AND EVIL.

NOW NOTICE THE CRAFTY OF SATAN HERE. IN THE DAY YOU EAT OF THE TREE YOUR EYES SHALL BE OPENED, BUT FROM THE HEBREW, TRACING THE WORD FOR ("TREE") BACK TO IT'S PRIME ROOT, MEANS A CLOSING OF THE EYES.

NOW BELOVED I DON'T KNOW ANYWHERE, THAT THERE IS A TREE WITH THE OPENING AND CLOSING OF THE EYES. THAT'S NOT NATURAL, YOU SEE IN GODS WORD, ("TREE") THE SPIRITUAL MEANING IS MAN AND THAT MAN IS SATAN,

ISAIAH 14., READ IT. YOU KNOW, I DON'T TRUST YOU, BUT TO DOCUMENT WHAT YOU ARE READING I WILL TAKE YOU TO THE MAIN VERSES.

ISAIAH 14 12:22. BUT TO SAVE TIME I WILL JUST DO 15 AND 18. BUT REMEMBER READ IT FOR YOURSELF.

OK, LET'S START. VERSE 15, "BUT YOU ARE BROUGHT DOWN TO THE GRAVE, TO THE DEPTHS OF THE PIT.

VERSE 16, "THOSE WHO SEE YOU STARE AT YOU, THEY PONDER YOUR FATE, IS THIS THE ("MAN") WHO SHOOK THE EARTH AND MAD KINGDOMS TREMBLE, THE ("MAN") WHO MADE THE WORLD A DESERT, WHO OVERTHREW ITS CITIES AND WOULD NOT LET HIS CAPTIVES GO HOME?

GENESIS 3:6. "AND WHEN THE WOMAN SAW THAT THE TREE WAS GOOD FOR FOOD AND THAT IT WAS PLEASANT TO THE EYES, AND A TREE TO BE DESIRED TO MAKE ONE WISE, SHE TOOK OF THE FRUIT THERE OF, AND DID EAT, AND GAVE ALSO UNTO HER HUSBAND WITH HER, AND HE DID EAT.

GENESIS 3:7. "AND THE EYES OF THEM BOTH WERE OPENED, AND THEY KNEW THAT THEY WERE NAKED, AND THEY SEWED FIG LEAVES TOGETHER, AND MADE THEMSELVES APRONS.

NOW DID THEY SEW FIG LEAVES TOGETHER TO HIDE THE BAD APPLE THEY HAD EATEN AS YOU HAVE PROBABLY BEEN TOLD IN YOUR FAIRY TALE STORIES?

NO BELOVED, REMEMBER, THAT THE FIG OF FIG LEAF THAT MEANS SOMETHING HIDDEN LIKE IN A BAD SENSE.

"AND HEAR WHAT THE WORD PLAINLY SAID THAT THEY SEWED FIG LEAVES TOGETHER AND MADE THEMSELVES APRON. NOW WHAT DO APRONS COVER? DO THEY COVER THE MOUTH? OR DOES IT GO OVER THAT PLACE WHERE THE SIN WAS ACTUALLY COMMITTED, OVER THE LOINS, OVER THE WOMB ? HERE WHAT THE SPIRIT IS SAYING! THEY MADE APRONS.

LEARN THE PARABLE OF THE FIG TREE. YOU SEE, YOU MUST UNDERSTAND. NOW REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED, GOD CURSED THE CAIN, HE PUT A MARK UPON HIM, BECAUSE HE WAS A MURDERER FROM THE BEGINNING, HE MURDERED ABEL, RIGHTEOUS ABEL WHOSE BLOOD CRIED OUT TO GOD FROM THE GROUND.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT ALL THE TIME JESUS WAS TEACHING, HE WAS NOT JUST CURSING A FIG TREE FOR THE SAKE OF SHOWING HIS POWER OF MIGHT, HE WAS TEACHING YOU SOMETHING.

ALRIGHT NOW LET'S GO TO REVELATION 13 AND TAKE UP THIS MARK. REVELATION 13:17. "AND THAT NO MAN MIGHT BUY OR SELL, SAVE HE THAT HAD THE MARK, OR THE NAME OF THE BEAST, OR THE NUMBER OF HIS NAME. REVELATION

13:18. "HERE IS WISDOM. LET HIM THAT HATH UNDERSTANDING COUNT THE NUMBER OF THE BEAST, FOR IT IS THE NUMBER OF A MAN, AND HIS NUMBER IS SIX HUNDRED AND THREE SCORE AND SIX.

NOW THIS WORD ("COUNT") MEANS TO ENUMERATE STONES WORN SMOOTH IN SERVICE OVER A LONG PERIOD OF TIME.

NOW YOU CAN FIND THAT IN YOU GREEK DICTIONARY, NUMBER 5585, 5586 AND ALSO 5584. ENUMERATE THOSE STONES.

REMEMBER STONES ARE CHILDREN, WHICH IN THIS CASE ARE THE (KENITES) THE SONS OF CAIN, A MURDERER FROM THE BEGINNING, WHICH IS THAT NATION, THE KENITE NATION, THE BAD FIG TREE.

GOD CURSED THEM, AND THEY ARE GOING TO WITHER AND DIE. YOU SEE CAIN, IS NOT ADAMS SON.

ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS GO TO THE BOOK OF GENESIS CHAPTER 5, VERSE 1:32. AND READ THE ACCOUNT OF ADAM'S LINE. AND YOU WILL NOT FIND CAIN, IN ADAMS BLOOD LINE.

NOW DO YOU THINK THAT GOD, THE GREAT I AM, CREATOR OF THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH, COULD MAKE A MISTAKE LIKE THAT? I DON'T THINK SO.

HEAR WHAT THE SPIRIT IS SAYING TO YOU. AND REMEMBER BE A GOOD FRUIT INSPECTOR .
