 End Times - Part 3. The lesson on 11-04-2001 is
part 3 of a series on the “End Times” Many are asking questions whether or not it’s the “End Times”
. The same sentiment was expressed over 2000 years ago when the Apostles asked Christ the question... “And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying,
Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?” Matt 24:3 (KJV). Ever since then,
Christian’s have been using current events of their time to try and predict Christs return and promote “End Times” teaching. Why? It’s going to be
a day of great blessing when the Kingdom of Heaven is here on Earth because that is what is promised to Israel. If so, then when are the Last
Days? Well, the return of Elijah is the one event that will verify prophecy is unfolding unto Israel and the times of restitution is at hand.   Click here to listen to the lesson on 11-04. Be sure and
review the End Times special report for a recap of all lessons pertaining to “End Times”.
 End Times - Part 4. The lesson on 11-11-2001 continues with Part 4 of the end-times mini-series
on the “Last Days” click here to review all the lessons). As you study this topic in scripture, it’s important to
understand the context of “end times” or “last days” that are referenced in books that were written
during the Acts Period. It’s apparent that Peter, John, Jude, and James who wrote their epistles
during the Acts period, had expectations that the last days were emminent and ready to begin right then. For example, Peter wrote in 1 Peter 4:7 (KJV) “But the end of all things is at hand: be ye
therefore sober, and watch unto prayer.” 2000 years have passed since then and the Day of the
Lord is still a future event. What happened? Israel was set aside and become “Lo-Ammi” as
prophesied in Hosea. God took then the salvation that was formerly authorized through the Jew, and now made it authorized unto the Gentiles. This transfer occurred at Acts 28:28 and is revealed for
the first time in Ephesians when Paul declares the administration of The Mystery. Consequently, the
prophetic events that are specific to Israel were put on hold until Israel is spiritually restored again which is accomplished with the return of Elijah. Click here to listen now.
 The Plan of Redemption
- God has a plan and purpose for the Ages. He has revealed this plan to us in His Word. As it's stated in 2 Tim 1:9 (KJV), "Who hath saved us, and called us with an
holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,". The lesson on 11-18-2001 completes two
series of studies. First, it ends the series of lessons that pertain to the timing of the New Testament books written during the Acts Period. This lesson also concludes the mini-series on the
"Last Days" as Part 5. Both series are very complimentary since the set of “Last Days” specified
in Revelation and Matthew were imminent at the end of Acts. The apostles alive at that time like
Peter, James, and John declared the “time was at hand”. What happened? With the close of Acts,
Israel was set aside temporarily while God revealed another calling (also referred to as “God’s Hidden Purpose”) through
the Apostle Paul which he calls "The Mystery". The dispensation of “The Mystery” has its own set of last days as well
which is described in 1 Tim 4:1-3 and 2 Tim 3:1-9 and this series has identified the differences. Click here to listen to the lesson on 11-18-2001. (Be sure and review all the lessons pertaining to the Last Days here.)
The Four Days in Scripture. The lesson on 11-25-2001 provides one more recap of the study
series on the “Last Days” with an emphasis on clarifying the differences between the “Day of Christ” and the “Day of the Lord”. There are four pre-emminent “Days” in scripture. Presently we
live in the “Day of Man” which is ends when Elijah returns and ushers in the “Day of Christ” which preceeds the “Day of the Lord” (to review the four days in scripture, click here). The length of the “Day of Christ” is
the time that leads up to the Day of the Lord. The final “day” in scripture is the “Day of God”. Today
, the members of the Body of Christ operate under the “Day of Man” and are called to perform good works that God has begun in each one of us. As Philippians 1:6 (KJV) states “Being confident of
this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:” These good works are to be performed until the “Day of Christ” when Elijah returns to restore Israel. Click here to listen now about these “Days” in scripture. This lesson is Part 6 of as series on the “Last Days” in
scripture (Be sure and review all of those lessons here).
