851 - Les Feldick Bible Study - Lesson 3 part 3 Book 71 - Antichrist, the Beast, the Wicked One - 3

https://lesfeldickbiblestudy.com Through the Bible with Les Feldick LESSON 3 * PART 3 * BOOK 71 ANTI-CHRIST: THE BEAST, THE WICKED ONE - 3 Daniel 9:27 – Revelation 19:11 For those of you joining us on television again, we appreciate you bringing us into your living room, kitchen, or wherever. How we appreciate your response to our teaching. We just give God the praise. How we thank you for your letters, especially when you write and tell us that for years you never had any interest in spiritual things. My, we get letters from people who haven’t been to church in years, and they get hooked. I don’t like to use the word, because it always reminds me of the drug culture, but they get hooked on our program, and it changes their life. I know one fellow wrote and he said, “Les, I used to just give up trying to read and understand the Bible. It lay on the shelf and collected dust, but you have taught me how to study, and it is so much fun.” And that’s the right word. It’s fun to go through these Scriptures and see how it all fits. Of course, that’s what makes our Bible so unique. Unlike all the so-called religious books, it’s not laid out like a story book, but it’s a book that has to be put together like a jigsaw puzzle. That’s a good example. You just put the pieces together and you connect the dots and then all of a sudden it all just makes sense. We are in the last four programs of book number 71. Now, for those of you out in television, it may not mean much to you. But each book that we list is twelve successive programs. So, if you want to know how many programs we’ve got in inventory, you just multiply 71 times 12 and that’s over 800. Okay, continuing on about the anti-Christ and those final seven years that the Bible calls the Day of the LORD. We’re going to go to the one and only place that I’m aware of in Scripture where the man is referred to as the anti-Christ. That will be in I John chapter 2 verse 18. I don’t know of any other place where he’s referred to by this term. Now again remember, all of these little Jewish epistles especially are writing with the idea that this is right out in front of them. They have no idea that God is going to stop the time clock and open it up for the Church Age for 2,000 years. So he speaks of it as though it could happen the next month or two. I John 2:18a “Little children, (He’s writing to believing Jews.) it is the (What?) last time:…” Well, that means what it says, so far as John was concerned. So far as his fellow believers are concerned, they were right in the last days. I John 2:18b “…it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, (future) even now there are many antichrists;…” (plural) Well, now let’s just flip back a minute. Keep your hand in I John. We may want to come back to it. Come all the way back to Matthew chapter 24. We looked at this several programs back, but remember, repetition is the mother of learning. Matthew 24 and the Twelve have come up with the Lord Jesus on the Mount of Olives without any outside adherents. No pressure. Just Jesus and the Twelve. Matthew 24:3-4a “And as he sat upon the Mount of Olives, the disciples (the Twelve) came unto him privately, (without any other onlookers or whatever) saying, Tell us when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the age? 4. And Jesus answered and said unto them,…” Fellows, you’re crazy, you don’t know what you’re talking about! NO! That’s not the attitude He takes. He gives them a specific answer, because it was a valid question. What are the signs of the end? That’s why I think it behooves us to look at it today. Hey, we’re just as close now as they thought they were then. So, we have to look at the signs of the time. Matthew 24:4b “…Take heed that no man deceive you.” Now you out there probably don’t realize as much as I do, with the response that we get, the false teaching that is just coming in like a tsunami. It’s coming in like a huge wave. And it comes in all colors and descriptions. It’s just unbelievable...and people are falling for it. They’re sending their money to it. I constantly tell people, don’t send them your money. Why contribute to something that is so false. But it’s just like water off a duck, but that’s the sign of the times. Matthew 24:4b-5 “…Take heed that no man deceive you. 5. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.” #LesFeldick #BibleStudy #Bible
