    Virus or no virus, the sooner Jesus returns and establishes the new heavens and earth the better as far as I am concerned.

    I agree.

    But I'm betting you didn't take the time to watch it.

    Too much truth to handle for some. Especially those that have let fear rule their lives for the past few weeks and still want to cower in their houses. Those people just can't believe in what you said, or their approach would be entirely different.

    I don’t have time this late at night. I’ll make a note to give it a listen tomorrow.

    His outline may just as well have been Revelation 6.

    You all think I am crazy about covid19 being the first and second seal. Read the Bible! You do not have to say, I don't know.

    Satan and the billionaires think they have it all planned out. It is God's plan, and they are just robots, as all good Calvanist claim.

    Don't just take my word about it. It is called prayer and Bible study. Ask God for wisdom, so you can be one step ahead, instead of waiting for the news to break.

    To warn you though there is no Antichrist. Just Satan and the false prophet. You cannot mix Paul and Daniel to get antichrist stew. Daniel tells about the false prophet. Paul talks about Satan, himself.

    If you cannot get that right, you will stay decieved, cause that is part of Satan's deception. To make himself a ghost, and blame it on two humans. If you stay deceived, the option to take is getting the head chopped off, instead of the mark, chip, tatoo, or devils/digital currency.

    PS, yes I watched till the end.

    And you still missed his answer to his own question. It was "No"

    I am pretty sure it was, "I don't know".

    If he claims all this is leading up to Revelation 13, and the plan was set in place 2 years ago, how can you say that he thinks it is not part of it. Of course it is not a "sign" if one thinks it is just man made.

    It is like in Job when Satan asked if a tornado could kill Job's children. Even if the tornado was Satan himself, God created Satan and the tornado. Tornados and viruses are all controlled by God and would have happened, even if we still had stone age technology.

    I thought his answer was more probably not than definite no.

    More preachers should preach this. Most are too scared to.

    I have listened to it now. Found it to be interesting. Personally, I prefer sermons about the Good News rather than politics and current events, but that’s just me. Anyway, thanks for sharing this.

    How is Covid 19 the first and second seal ? It makes no sense whatsoever. Does not fit.

    He actually said, "I don't think so". " But it's a trial run...a dress rehearsal."

    First, This was not biblical preaching--it was philosophy mixed with conspiracy theory mixed with some quotations of Bible passages. Christ was not presented nor His work, nor any call to follow Him. Nothing was expounded from the Bible.

    This did not belong under the category of Biblical preaching.

    2 Tim. 4
    3 For the time will come when men will not tolerate sound doctrine, but with itching ears they will gather around themselves teachers to suit their own desires. 4 So they will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.

    This speech was ear tickling.

    Listen to some of his other sermons. He covers your required bases.

    1. Other sermons were not posted.
    2. It's not my bases, the Word of God requires those things concerning preaching.

    Not every sermon.
    Its kind of like the old Sgts used to say, if there was .... up there you could climb my obstacle.
    If you wanted to, you could find his other sermons.

    Not every sermon? Then it's not a biblical sermon. If Christ is not the centerpiece of preaching, then it's not biblical preaching.

    Not every sermon had to be that way. A pastor can discuss current events on occasion. This sermon specifically discussed the end times.

    Sure, a pastor can have any sort of speech he wants to have. But not every speech is a biblical preaching.

    Where does Scripture tell us what the content of every sermon has to be?
