| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Welcome to today's sermon.
I'm Mike Adams with Abundance.Church.
And we've got some interesting wrap-up topics to discuss today.
And I fully realize, by the way, that the most recent sermons that we've done here, Sermon 66 and 67 and 68, have challenged a lot of the doctrine of the traditional church and Christianity in general, and that a lot of it is very different from what you were taught in Bible school, if that's If you attend a Bible school or Bible study or just church services.
So I want to share something with you about that.
First of all, you know that I never went to any kind of official Bible training, which turns out to be a great blessing because I can approach the Scripture with a fresh, neutral kind of tone.
I can approach it without having presumptions about what it says.
So, for example, when I'm looking at Revelation chapter 19 and then verse 11, which I talked about in the previous sermon or two sermons ago, a lot of people say, well, it's Christ coming out of the sky on a white horse.
And yet you read the verse and Christ is never mentioned.
In fact, It's not Christ.
As we talked about, it's actually a comet that is dispatched by God to defeat evil on earth.
So it has Christ-like properties in the sense that it's here to defeat evil, but it's actually not Christ.
It's hard to be able to read that with a fresh perspective if it's been drilled into your head since you were four years old that it's Christ on a horse.
It's Christ on a horse. Christ comes back to this earth.
And so when I say things like, actually Christ doesn't come back to this earth at all.
God ends this earth, and then those who are worthy are resurrected in the soul, in the spirit, to meet with Christ and the Lord in a completely different dimension, which is called heaven.
When I say that, like some people, some people are perfectly open-minded, like, yeah, that actually makes sense.
It makes total sense.
Other people are like, no, no.
We were taught that Christ comes back to this earth.
He's on a horse in the sky.
He comes back to this earth.
He defeats wickedness on this earth.
And then we keep living on this earth with Christ.
I'm like, with all the Starbucks, too?
With the Subway sandwich shops?
Christ is going to be here?
With the traffic jams on the highway?
And all the taxes and everything?
And Netflix? Is Christ going to watch Netflix?
Folks, Christ doesn't come back to this earth.
Christ is done with this earth.
Last time he was here, look what happened.
He's not coming back to this earth.
We are going to join him in a different realm.
God destroys this earth with a series of comets that we've covered in detail.
The seven comets, the seven impacts.
But my point is that it's tough for a lot of people to think in a different way, some mental flexibility about something they've been taught their entire lives.
A lot of people are totally convinced.
Christ is going to return.
He's coming back. He's going to come in the sky.
And with a loud, booming voice, he's going to defeat evil with one loud, booming voice.
And then I say, got news for you, that loud, booming voice is actually the sound of a comet striking Earth's atmosphere.
And it's not Christ. It's a comet.
And we're all going to be actually physically killed, but then spiritually saved.
Like, when I say that, then somebody will be like, no, that couldn't be.
My pastor never taught me that.
Okay, fine.
In a practical sense, do you realize that it really doesn't matter which way we go?
As long as you focus on living your life with Christ.
You realize you're covered in both scenarios.
So if you live your life in alignment with God and Christ, and you exhibit the properties of a selfless person, of a loving, compassionate person, let's focus on the teachings of Christ here, and if you're capable of practicing forgiveness and selflessness and charity and all these things, then you're going to be judged in a very positive light.
Now, if you think Christ is coming back on a horse and he's going to live with us on this earth alongside Amazon.com, that's fine.
As long as you still use your life, the time that you have left, to do the work of Christ, that's fine.
Or, if the scenario I'm describing is actually correct and we are all obliterated in comet strikes, You're also covered too because, of course, your book of life records all the good things that you did and you get the VIP pass into heaven.
So we don't have to always agree on the mechanism of how God defeats evil.
We don't always have to agree on the mechanism.
We can often just agree on the big picture.
Okay, God defeats evil.
Yes, we totally agree on that.
And good people are, in essence, raptured into heaven.
Now, I've pointed out, I've covered this in great detail, I've covered 1 Thessalonians and 1 Corinthians and so on, about the fact that the rapture is actually post-trib.
And by the way, I approach those scriptural passages honestly.
Before I actually taught that sermon, I did not have a preconceived notion about whether it's pre-trib, mid-trib, or post-trib.
So I did not try to make Scripture fit my narrative, so to speak.
I studied those passages now, knowing what we know with all the new information that we've gleaned and shared here about the comet impacts and the timing of everything, and then came to the conclusion that this clearly happens at the end of the seventh trumpet, which is the seventh impact.
So, in other words, the rapture or the...
The resurrection of the worthy souls to join Christ and God in heaven, this happens at the end of the seven comets, which is the end of the total destruction of Earth, by the way.
So it's very clear to me that the rapture happens post-tribulation, not pre-trib, although perhaps most of the people I know believe in pre-tribulation.
Now, here's where this does matter.
Because a lot of people that believe in pre-tribulation rapture, they think that therefore they don't have to really prepare for anything.
Because in their mind, Jesus is going to take us out of here.
One day we're just going to float up into the sky before anything bad happens.
That's a really convenient belief if you don't want to endure any kind of pain and suffering.
It's a very convenient belief.
But I don't think it's backed up by Scripture.
And one of the things that I've learned since I've been teaching these sermons is that most people's knowledge of the Bible doesn't come from the Bible.
Yeah. That might sound shocking, but it's true.
Most people's knowledge of the Bible came from what other people told them about the Bible.
Often their pastor or their church community or Or maybe their spouse or other church members.
A lot of people think they know the Bible and they haven't read the Bible.
Isn't that wild? Because, see, I'm someone who knows that I don't know all the Bible.
And that's why I'm reading the Bible, to learn it.
And what I'm learning and sharing with you is not what I was told about the Bible.
It's like, here's the most popular book ever in human history.
It's got, what, 66 books in it.
I don't know how many total pages.
Over a thousand pages.
It's a pretty big book overall.
But it's the most popular book that's been printed a billion times.
A lot of people own this book.
They've never read it.
They've never looked at it.
I mean, they've never looked into it.
And sometimes when they go to church, the pastor will say, you know, turn to, you know, 1 Thessalonians, whatever.
We're going to read this one verse together.
And so you spend like 60 seconds reading a verse, and then after that, let's sing a bunch of songs, you know, hymns, hymns, and psalms, and poems, and then pop singer, electric guitar, do-do-do-do.
And it's like, isn't church great?
Let's teach some leadership skills, you know?
And you're like, what happened to scripture?
You know? It's like, and here's a magician, you know?
Churches have become these entertainment things and these, like, social gatherings, right?
Far too many of them.
Not all of them, but far too many have become social gatherings, and they don't really study Scripture.
Now, I do know that there are churches that seriously study Scripture, like Mennonites.
You go to a Mennonite church, you better do your homework.
You better bring your A-game on Scripture.
Or an Amish church.
These are serious people. They don't mess around with show and tell and all this kind of bewilderment on stage kind of theatrical nonsense.
Mennonites and Amish and some other groups are very serious about what Scripture says, and they do read it and they do study it.
But even in those groups, the stories that they've been told have just been handed down
from one generation to the next.
And some of these stories may not actually pan out if you really read Scripture again
today knowing what you know today.
So it's an obvious truth that our understanding of Scripture has changed over time.
And as we gain more knowledge in this world, knowledge including about geology, knowledge
about earthquakes, knowledge about lightning, knowledge about comets and astronomy, then
we now have to sort of reread and re-understand Scripture in the context of knowing what we
know today.
Because in the days of, let's say, Matthew, did they have the word comet?
Comet? Did they have the word meteorite?
No. They did not have the word meteorite.
Did they have the field of astronomy in Matthew's day?
Nope. There was no astronomy.
Did they know that the sun was the center of the solar system?
Nope. Not a clue. They had not gleaned that information.
And so when they say, you know, the sun was darkened and the moon turned blood red, did they have knowledge that that's because there was particulate matter that was ejected into Earth's stratosphere, dimming the sun and altering the color hue of the moon?
Did they know that that's what that was?
No! They did not know what was causing that.
They just knew that the sun's darker, like sackcloth.
The sky rolled up like a scroll, you know?
I'm not insulting the intelligence or the observations of these people.
And I've commented numerous times that Paul the Apostle, for example, I'm so impressed with his intellect.
Even today, he would be considered a philosophical genius.
And you look at the writings of Job, for example.
Meticulous arguments, just really amazing minds.
And so I'm totally impressed with the intellect of these people, but they did not have the knowledge base to understand what they were seeing or what God was telling them, or in the case of Matthew, what Jesus was showing him.
They didn't have the vocabulary to understand what any of this was.
So, of course, when John of Patmos is given these visions by the angels of these comets coming out of the sky with these long tails and these bright, fiery faces and these Smoldering fireballs underneath it.
What did he say? Well, the first angel poured out his bowl.
I don't know. And it had long hair and feet of fire and a bright face.
It's like, again, I'm not insulting the intelligence at all.
Don't misinterpret that.
I'm saying that they had to describe these events in the words and the terms that they knew in their time.
But as we are now living almost 2,000 years later, we have a lot more knowledge about astronomy, the sun, gravity, velocity of impacts, and all kinds of things.
And so we need to incorporate that into our understanding of Scripture.
And that brings us back to Revelation chapter 19.
Now, Christ on a horse.
I think this is a really great example, which is why I'm bringing us back to this.
So this story that we are told, but which is not in the Bible, is that it's Christ on a horse flying out of the sky.
And again, the passage never says it's Christ, and it's clearly a comet.
But you know what's interesting about this story?
It's very similar to what children used to be told about where babies come from.
Oh, a stork brings the baby.
Yeah, there's a flying stork that just brings babies.
And to a childlike mind, which you've got to remember, part of the mission of the Bible was also to teach the Word of God to, honestly, barely literate people.
I mean, throughout human history, most people were illiterate.
Let's be clear about that.
To be able to read and to write were rare skills until relatively recently, just in the last couple of centuries.
In the day of Matthew or in the day of John, in the day of Christ, reading and writing were specialties.
The scribes could read and write.
That was like a whole career. You can read?
Oh man, you're going to have so much success in this world.
You can write too.
Oh my gosh, we have a job opening for you in the church.
We need to copy all these scrolls 50 times with no mistakes in ink.
There's no undo. And it has to look good too.
No sloppy scribing.
It's got to look good.
And if you mess up one character, well there goes that page.
Rip it out. Start over.
Can you imagine? No wonder these people could cite scripture because they had to keep writing it over and over and over again like punishment when you were in elementary school and you spelled the word wrong and your teacher said, okay, you got to spell it correctly, write it out 500 times.
That's what scribes had to do.
They had to rewrite the same scrolls hundreds of times.
That's why they knew them by heart.
Anyway, that's just a tangent to this.
But for most of time, when the Bible has existed, most people have not been able to read text in any language, by the way.
And, of course, the Bible being written in at least three different languages, maybe more, Someone who could read all the languages, like Paul, was quite a scholar, a very impressive intellect to be able to read all the languages and to have discussions in all these different languages.
So, understand that the stories in the Bible are also simplified for people who, for the masses, let's say, for the masses who were not The academics of their day.
They were not the professors.
They were not the Pauls.
They were the common people.
And with the common people, that's where you get, you know, stories like, oh, well, this is, okay, is Jesus on a horse flying out of the clouds?
Oh, okay, you know, common people like, yeah, I can imagine that.
You don't tell a child how babies are made and how babies come into this world.
You know why you don't tell children that?
Because it's psychologically horrifying.
That's why the birthing process, those of you who have been through it or witnessed it, you don't tell those stories to five-year-olds.
No, no, no. Not even with epidurals, none of that.
You do not tell those stories to children because you'll freak them out.
So you make up a simpler version that's sort of psychologically acceptable.
A bird brings the baby, you know?
This is what is happening here in Revelation to teach the masses who were not academics, who were not able to read, they did not have college educations, to teach them The fundamental structure of these stories.
So they use a lot of metaphors.
They use a lot of images that are kind of childlike, frankly, kind of comic book-like.
Okay, there's Christ on a horse coming out of the sky.
Not really. That's not really how the Lord defeats evil on Earth.
Actually, it's a series of comet impacts that destroy every living creature on the planet, but we don't tell those things to children, you know?
We don't tell the child-minded masses from 2,000 years ago that God's going to destroy the whole world, but if you're good, you're going to be resurrected in your spirit, and you're going to join this alternate dimension where heaven exists and And then your spirit's going to rejoin the river of life spirit, which is the God consciousness where we are all connected.
Like, you don't explain all that to simple-minded people in the year, you know, 75 AD. They're not going to track that.
So you tell simplified stories.
So in essence, what you and I are discussing here in reading this scripture is And then just having an honest assessment of what it says, not holding back, but understanding that these people are describing visually what they saw using simplified terms.
But you and I can discuss this like adults.
Because we can talk about subjects like the end of the earth.
We can talk about things like cosmic impacts.
Or hypervelocities.
We could talk about multidimensional realms.
We could talk about how the mind is the non-material consciousness, whereas the brain is the material interface through which that consciousness is expressed in this 3D world.
We could even talk about simulation theory.
And we can realize that, you know, those all those high level physicists that say this is all a simulation.
That is actually the same conclusion that is mentioned in the Bible, which is that this is a simulation created by
God.
This is a temporary world, a testing ground created by God and ultimately ended by God from which we transcend.
So simulation theory, though, most of the simulation theory scientists believe that we're all living inside a giant AI
supercomputer created by an all powerful ancient civilization in the cosmos.
You notice they're just using different words to say the same thing.
you They're afraid to say it's God, the creator, created the entire cosmos.
God created everything and then God created this 3D world, this simulation with certain laws of physics and certain quantization of photons and all these rules and things.
God created it.
And we're going to rejoin with God if we pass the test here.
But, you know, the simulation theory guys are...
They're essentially saying the same thing, they just use different words.
Like, no, it's an AI supercomputer.
Okay, call it your AI supercomputer.
It's not, really, but that's your story.
You know, like, that's how you tell yourself that this world isn't real.
Because it's not real.
But there are different ways to tell the same story, different ways to reach the same conclusion, aren't there?
Buddhism, for example, believes in reincarnation.
Now, it's interesting because reincarnation, of course, the very first assumption of reincarnation is that your soul is eternal.
Well, Christianity also teaches that your soul is eternal.
So they start out with the same truthful definition.
Assumption there. Your soul actually exists beyond your body.
In Buddhism, though, the difference is that if you fail this test—now, see, Christianity and Buddhism both believe that this is a test.
In Buddhism, if you fail the test, you come back and you get to try again.
But the second time around, you might come back as like a worm or a rabbit or, you know, an impoverished child in Africa or whatever.
Or you might come back as a gnat.
Or you might come back as a baby to be aborted before you're even born, you know?
It's like, hey, you didn't even give me a chance, you know?
It was like, game over before it even started.
I don't mean to make light of abortion, obviously, but I'm trying to give this...
A little bit of cosmic levity here to understand the big, big, big picture of what all this is.
But Buddhists say you get to keep coming back and trying again and again and again until you get it right.
What does the Bible say?
What does Christianity say?
You get one chance at passing the test.
It's a final exam.
If you pass it, you go to heaven.
If you don't pass it, you burn in hell forever.
So the Christian view...
Of the soul is that yes, the soul is eternal, but you only have one shot at this and you better get it right, where Buddhism is actually a little more forgiving.
It's like, you can try again.
Just keep trying. Of course, it sucks that you have no memory of your last attempt.
It's like, I made it to the boss level, you know, and then the boss stomped on my face and I got sent back and they wiped my memory.
So I don't even know how to solve this level anymore.
It seems to me that if there was going to be reincarnation, wouldn't it make more sense to have a memory of what we did wrong the last time?
I don't know. I'm just saying, maybe some of you are Buddhists and you can help answer that question.
Why do we have no memory of the last attempt if we're just reincarnated living over and over again?
But there's a similar question for Christianity.
Why would God give us the gift of life and consciousness, self-awareness, and freedom to choose, and take away our memory of how we got here?
Wouldn't it be so much easier if you're born as a child and you're like, at least somewhere in the back of your mind, you're thinking, okay, yeah, now I remember.
I'm here as a test, you know?
God put me here.
Wouldn't it be great to remember that this is a drill or a test?
But no. That's part of the whole thing.
Not only do you have to figure it all out the very first time or you burn in hell, but also we're going to wipe your memory.
Good luck! God's laughing in heaven.
Good luck, everybody! First, you have to figure out the rules of the game before you die in the game.
Right? Isn't that true?
It's like What if you never stumbled across the Bible?
What if nobody ever showed you the Bible?
What if nobody ever taught you that the currency that counts is actually being a good person?
What if you thought that the mission of life on Earth was to just collect money, and you think you're winning because your bank account looks good, unless you've logged in recently to one of the banks that Has had a glitch that shows everybody's balance is zero.
That seems to happen a lot.
But normally you log in and you've got some numbers on the screen.
Some people think, that's winning!
I'm winning! You know, what if they never got the real rules?
Then they could end up burning in hell and really being confused.
Like, what did I do to get here?
Well, let us count the ways.
Let's see. Let's open your book of life.
Oh, no, please. Please, God, no.
Does it start with your Facebook history?
Oh, please, God. Please, no.
Oh, I thought I scrubbed that.
Anyway, life is funny.
Life is funny. But here's the great news in all of this, okay?
We know the code now.
We broke the code.
Okay, we broke the code.
This is a big deal. We broke the code to the point where we know how to win in the simulation or the testing ground.
We know how to win. And the good news is that winning really only requires being a good person.
So it's like everybody wins.
You don't have to do bad things to be a winner.
You don't have to beat up anybody else to be a winner.
All you have to do is be a good person, and the Bible is filled with examples of what that means.
It's like 80% of the Bible, well, except for all the family tree stuff in Genesis, but most of the rest of the Bible is just examples of how to be a good person.
Well, except for all the Psalms and poems and everything.
But you get the point. It's just laying out the foundation in case you had any questions.
Like, is that a good thing to do or is that evil?
Well, there's probably a chapter and verse on that if you need some references.
You can look it up. Or, if you are a good person, you can probably know in your gut what's good and what's wrong.
And all you have to do is be a good person and you pass the test.
The other thing that we've decoded in all of this, if you've listened to my recent sermons, is we know how it ends.
That's actually really valuable information.
We know how this ends.
So think about the clarity that this brings.
We know it ends with God unleashing his wrath in the form of a series of comet impacts, with the last one obliterating all life on Earth, at least all human life, all civilizations, boom, reset.
You might think, well, that sounds real doom and gloom.
Not actually.
But It tells us a lot of interesting things.
For example, number one, we know that the world doesn't end in nuclear annihilation, does it?
Because in the book of Revelation, there are still some survivors after the first six impacts.
There are even a few Israelis still around.
I mean, God mostly destroyed Israel, but...
Almost all the other countries as well, but there are some survivors.
So we know that the world is not annihilated with nuclear weapons.
That's actually useful information.
It doesn't mean there won't be nuclear detonations somewhere, but it's not a civilization ending type of nuclear war.
We know that. We also know that Earth isn't ended by an alien invasion or a giant Earth-killing beam from a quasar or an exploding supernova or something like that.
That's not how it ends.
We know this. Well, hold on.
Let me check myself on that. The first trumpet actually could be a supernova.
Type of flash fire across the earth.
So that's a possibility.
But we can rule out a lot of different things.
For example, we know that climate change doesn't destroy the earth because that's all a fraud and a scam anyway.
That's not how this ends.
We also know that humanity as a species ultimately in the aggregate fails the test, fails the God test.
That's useful information because it helps you set expectations of what you're going to encounter as you interact with other people on this earth.
If you keep wondering, like, why is everybody so stupid or so evil?
Well, now you know.
Because they're not worthy of even being kept alive.
I mean, God ends them all.
God kills them all.
So if you've ever been walking around society and you've had a negative interaction with a customer support person or whatever, and you're like, my God, how is that person even living?
Don't worry, God shares the exact same thought as you.
God has the same view.
He's like, yeah, tell me about it.
Wait till you see what I have planned.
That's God saying that.
If you've been disappointed in humanity, think about his disappointment in humanity.
And you might ask, by the way, as a tangent, like, well, why did he create humankind if he's just going to be disappointed?
Well, he created humankind and then he gave humankind free will.
Because otherwise, what's the point?
And he was hoping that humankind would use free will to love the Lord.
Instead, they used it to blaspheme the Lord.
And to commit all kinds of sins, beginning with the serpent in the Garden of Eden.
That actually kind of set the whole tone for the whole thing, the thousands of years ending with game over.
If you think about it, we've actually been on a collision course with God's judgment this whole time.
Maybe God gave humanity a lot of chances to fix itself.
If you could just stop with the mass fornication, if you could just stop being thieves and being full of yourself with all your fame in the church or whatever, if you could just be decent human beings, maybe I, the Lord, could alter the course of some of these comments.
As God watched humankind develop, the level of evil expressed by humankind became too much to bear.
Think about it, where we are today.
We are a species, humankind, a species that poisons our children with pesticides, pollutes our soils with bio-sludge, contaminates our waters with pharmaceutical runoff and birth control chemicals, Murders are babies, calling it women's reproductive health.
We pollute our skies to block the sun.
We synthesize shadow medicine and plastics, chemicals, and pollute the entire world with those substances.
We put children on mind-altering psychiatric drugs.
Our scientists and doctors carry out cruel medical experiments on puppy dogs.
And sometimes children. We live in a world of incredible demonic possession, perversion, sexual perversion, you know, Pizzagate and all that.
And then we live in a world where our governments build bioweapons and call them vaccines and line people up to be injected with them while we're funding bombs that massacre innocent women and children.
And we call it justice.
Oh, yeah, and also, speaking of justice, we live in a world where they tell us that men can have babies and that God doesn't exist.
And that you should put tampons in men's restrooms.
What do you think God is thinking about this?
God is looking at this and saying, holy, what on earth have I unleashed?
How did this go wrong?
This experiment needs to end.
It's like, you would do the same thing if you were God.
You would. You'd do the same thing.
You would literally say, kill them all and let God sort them out.
And that's exactly what happens.
That's exactly what happens.
So don't be surprised.
And I get it if there's some people out there who can only handle the, you know, the children's version of the stories.
You know, babies come from storks.
You know, Santa Claus is real.
The tooth fairy gives you the money.
And, yeah, Jesus is going to come back and make this earth perfect, and you're just going to live in your regular body here in the home that you have right now.
You're going to drive your car.
You're going to drive a Tesla, and you might see Jesus next to you driving a Tesla, and you're just going to wave, Hi, Jesus, thanks for coming back to Earth and saving Earth from evil.
Yeah, that's a comic book version that is not true.
It's not written in Scripture, anything like that.
In Revelation chapter 21, I believe, yeah, now I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away.
It says it all right there.
The earth you know is gone.
You're in a new heaven and a new earth, and it's not in this realm.
And if you read Revelation 21, it becomes obvious you're not in Kansas anymore.
You're in some other dimension.
And by the way, don't forget verse 8, right there in that chapter, Revelation 21, verse 8, specifically describes what causes you to be rejected from heaven.
So think about this list very carefully.
This is God speaking about who will be cast into the lake which burns with fire and brimstone.
Who will that be?
He gives a list. The cowardly.
Oh, that's like 90% of the population.
The cowardly.
Everybody's a coward these days.
I'm afraid to say that.
I'm afraid to challenge that.
I'm afraid. Total cowards.
The unbelieving.
The abominable.
Murderers, sexually immoral sorcerers, which I think includes the big pharma people, idolaters, people who worship false idols, and all liars.
Well, there goes the political class.
There goes all the so-called journalists in the media.
They shall have their part in the lake, which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.
By the way, that second death refers to the death of the soul.
The first death is when the comet destroys your body.
That's, yeah, that's, let's call that like the first wipeout.
Ah, we all got wiped out.
Okay, what's next?
Well, you either get resurrected or you suffer the second death.
No, not the second death.
Yes, I didn't even give you the list.
But a lot of people don't realize you can be sent to the second death just from being a coward.
And everybody's a coward, it seems, because they all want to get along.
They want to fit in.
They want a virtue signal.
They want to be all woke.
You know, they don't want to say, you don't want to rock the boat.
There's a lot of cowardice in the church, I've noticed.
Don't want to challenge doctrine.
A lot of cowards, man.
Yeah. Yeah. Sexually immoral, wouldn't that include sodomizers and groomers and pedophiles and mass fornicators?
The people who swipe on the dating apps?
Swipe left, swipe right?
I don't know. Swipe yourself.
The murderers, the unbelieving, those who don't believe in God.
That's going to get a lot of people right there.
So you realize that, you know, this lake which burns with fire and brimstone, it's going to be crowded.
It's going to be like the community pool on a hot summer Saturday.
It's like, this thing's packed.
There's going to be a lot of souls in there enjoying their second death.
By the way, my favorite part about this is just thinking about all the people who end up in hell and then are surprised.
Like, what? This is real?
Yep. And you did not pass the test.
It's going to get toasty down here.
Anyway, I just imagine that look of shock on their face.
It'd be like Tim Walls in a debate.
Like, what? It's like, this is real?
Ask yourself this question right now, by the way.
Do you think, if judgment came today, right now, would you be judged worthy of heaven?
Or would you be judged as dropping into hell?
And whatever that answer is, you still have time.
You still have time. If you're already going to heaven, guess what?
You might be able to help save more people to join you in heaven.
Or more souls, I should say.
It's not going to be physical bodies.
If you think you're going to hell, you may be right at the moment, but you can change it.
You can change it. You can ask for forgiveness.
You can repent for your sins.
You can earn back through God's currency.
You might even...
Now, again, I don't know how the scoring system works exactly, but if you had been cowardly in the past, well, maybe you can find courage.
And then you can behave with more courage and you can erase the cowardice.
If you had been abominable in the past, whatever that meant, lumbering around the neighborhood, scaring little children or whatever, you could maybe stop doing that and you could change who you are.
Murderers, it says.
Well, if you murdered someone in the past, maybe you could stop murdering people.
Just say it.
Maybe you killed someone in a way that was self-defense.
That's not considered murder, by the way.
That's self-defense. That is allowed by God if it's truly self-defense.
But if you literally killed someone out of hatred or violence or something, can God forgive you over enough time and enough repentance?
I suspect the answer is yes.
I don't know for certain.
But even if you murdered someone, possibly with enough time and enough repentance and enough good deeds, you could nullify that with good deeds.
Possibly. Maybe.
I think the answer is yes.
Sexually immoral.
Well, stop doing those things.
Whatever you're doing that you think is sending you to hell for...
Crazy sex acts or sex partners or whatever.
You can change that.
You can change that.
Just don't go to those Hollywood parties anymore, you know?
Sorcerers, idolaters, you know, stop worshipping false idols and liars.
You know, stop being a liar.
If you've been a liar this whole time, maybe stop lying.
Tell the truth. That's a really tough one these days because the truth is very unpopular.
The truth about anything is very unpopular.
Even the truth about scripture is unpopular.
The truth about politics, the truth about economics, the truth about war, the truth about many current events, the truth about transgenderism.
These truths are not popular.
But if you're a liar, if you're a consistent liar, you're going to hell.
So, tell the truth, even if it takes effort, even if it gets you banned, you know?
Tell the truth. Even if it gets you defamed, kicked out of your church, kicked out of your family, guess what?
They might be going to hell.
Seriously. You don't want to join them.
It's not a family reunion, hopefully, in hell.
Although, depending on your family, that may be the case.
Make sure somebody brings potluck, right?
You can change your outcome right now.
And you can do it today.
And so, let me wrap up with this final message here.
Big picture of all the sermons that I've been teaching.
You may not agree with my interpretations.
You may vehemently disagree.
And that's okay. If anything that I've said here helps motivate you to reform your life in a positive way so that you will be judged worthy by God, then I've done my job.
Then I've helped you think about these issues in a way that move you in the right direction.
And if you think Jesus comes out of the sky riding an actual white horse from the clouds, I am totally okay with you believing that, as long as that belief helps you live a life closer to the teachings of Jesus Christ.
I'm all for it. You can believe whatever you want, as long as it brings you closer to God and helps you earn that inheritance for eternal life.
Use whatever words you want.
Use whatever images you want.
Use whatever stories you want.
But the ultimate truth is what really matters, that God wants us to be good people, not evil people.
And being a good person in an evil world may be the most difficult thing that you've ever done.
Obviously, it's easy to do all the immoral, crazy things and to be a liar and to be a coward.
That's easy. Being a coward is easy.
All you have to do is just go along with everybody else.
Because there are cowards and liars too.
But having courage and telling the truth, that's very difficult.
As I say, telling the truth in a time of treason is a revolutionary act.
And that's true spiritually.
So expect things to get difficult.
And remember, there are times in history, and I believe some of the characters and people presented in the Bible too, who were tortured by And it was commanded of them to renounce their faith in order to avoid being killed.
And see, there's a test for you right there.
If someone had a gun to your head and said, you either renounce your belief in Christ, or I'm going to pull the trigger and blow your brains out, what would you do?
Because the correct answer is, Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior.
And if you want to pull the trigger, that's on you.
But I'm going to heaven.
You're going to hell.
I'll probably pull the trigger.
And then your part's done.
But if you compromise in that moment, if you say, no, no, no, I'll renounce Christ.
Don't pull the trigger. I want to live.
I want to live. You've sacrificed your eternal life, actually.
And it's not worth it. That's not a good deal.
Not even like a dollar store good deal.
You got ripped off there.
So do not compromise your faith under any circumstances, not even in the face of the threat of death.
And you'll be given a tremendous amount of credit for holding the line on that with God, believe me.
It's like extra credit right there.
So that's today's sermon there.
Now, I promise we will be getting back to foods and herbs and nutrients from the Bible.
I've been kind of missing those topics, actually, so I can't wait to get back into those.
Now that we know how it ends, we can breathe a sigh of relief and we can go back and talk about nutrition.
We know. We know how it ends.
We know what to look for.
Answer? Look up.
Look at the sky. See what's coming.
If there's something really bright and shiny and approaching in the sky, or if there's seven of them, God forbid, maybe they're more spread out and you can't see all seven, but if there's one or two or three You should pay attention to that.
That might be the first trumpet.
And remember, a lot of people will survive the first trumpet.
It does burn up all the grass across the earth, though.
You might have some burns if you're outside when that thing hits.
But a lot of people will survive the first trumpet, and the second trumpet hits the ocean, remember?
So a lot of people will survive even the second trumpet.
So that's going to be a really interesting time to be alive and just Realizing that, wow, the book of Revelation is real.
That means there's five more coming, folks.
Going to be a lot of people begging God for forgiveness in those days, huh?
It'd be an interesting time to be alive.
By the way, remember that the sixth trumpet says it kills a third of mankind.
Well, two-thirds are still around.
But of course, you know, the crops will have failed because of the lack of sunlight.
There will be no more nations, no more currencies, no cryptocurrencies.
You know, it'll be a very interesting time, for sure.
And surviving on that planet may seem like hell, but there will be survivors.
And then, you know, the seventh impact happens, and then that's it.
Judgment Day. But we know the structure of this now.
So in essence, we have sort of the blueprint code that For human life on Earth in a cosmos created by God.
We actually have the manual.
We have the user manual now.
We should have been born with this user manual, I think.
It would have been better. But now we've figured it out.
So live according to the user manual and you're going to ace this thing.
It's kind of like you've been given the answers to the test on the final exam.
You have. I mean, God...
Gave it to you. I just read off the things that disqualify you.
And then you know from reading the Bible, you know all the good things that you can do that can help bring you into heaven.
You got the answers, folks.
It's almost like cosmically cheating on your final.
But it's all approved by God.
He actually gives you the answers in advance.
He just says, I dare you, you know, I dare you to pass the test.
I dare you to live as a good person.
Try it, you know. I double dare you.
Like, that's what God is saying to humanity.
I double dare you to live as good people.
And most people just can't even do it.
Can't do it. But it's a choice for each of us.
So make those choices and we will see each other in heaven one day.
In literally an alternate dimension.
Won't that be cool? Really interesting.
We'll have a lot to talk about. All right, until then, visit our website, abundance.church, sign up for the email list, and we'll alert you.
We'll alert you to the first trumpet.
No, there may not be time.
We'll alert you when we post things and whether the trumpet comes in our lifetimes or beyond or in the next year or whatever.
We'll keep doing this as much as we can.
So God bless you all.
Thank you for listening.
I'm Mike Adams of Abundance.Church.
