Transcription of
Sabbath Sermon 168
Given by Lawrence A. Nowell
On September 22, 2012

1.)	This is The Obedient Church of God broadcasting worldwide on the Internet preaching only the First Century Doctrine, every jot and title, and preaching that you are breaking God’s heart by your discontinued disobedience. 

2.)	“I can tell by your eyes that you have probably been crying forever, and the stars in the sky mean nothing to you, they’re just a mirror.”

3.)	The stars in the sky mean nothing to you, Genesis 1:14, stars “mean nothing to you,” but we’re going to preach about it. 

4.)	“I don’t want to preach about it, how you broke God’s heart; if I preach to you a little bit longer, if I preach won’t you listen to God’s heart, God’s heart?”

5.)	Welcome to The Obedient Church of God: now we are going out on the Internet in such a way that our viewership is growing. Please tell your friends right now they can get the www.theworldtomorrow.org  on their computer for free. We are downs streaming on a live broadcast. 

6.)	“I don’t want to preach about it, how you broke God’s heart, if we preach to you a little bit longer, if I preach, won’t you listen to God’s heart, God’s heart, God’s heart, God’s heart?” 

7.)	Bonjour Paree France, sez sez hours après midi le houre du dinier au France. Six P.M. suppertime in Paris; nine A.M. on the West Coast, Seattle, Los Angeles; and twelve noon on the East Coast, Washington D. C., New York City, and Miami. 

8.)	We are preaching the First Century Gospel and we are the Philadelphia Church of God like no other because we did not move God’s Sabbath Day to Friday.

9.)	“If we preach to you a little bit longer, if we preach won’t you listen to God’s heart, God’s heart?” 

10.)	Yes, it’s unbelievable, “unbelievable” how all of the Churches of God, including even all of the Jewish Rabbis, can move God’s Sabbath Day to Friday in half of the world. 

11.)	I was speaking to a high-ranking Jewish Orthodox Rabbi this last week, and he was saying, yes, there is controversy over having the International Date Line moving the Sabbath Day to Friday in half the world, but, “but, but” even the rabbis are all divided, all confused. 

12.)	They are all mixed- up, and can’t come down to the common sense decision that you cannot let man move God’s Sabbath Day a day early, no matter what device is used, no matter what it has to do with the world commerce, and world trade. You go by God’s sunsets; Genesis 1:14 is very clear that the stars are set in the heaven in order to determine the time.

13.)	So even the Jewish high-ranking rabbis are confused. They can’t agree, so obviously they are confused.

14.)	We are not confused. We are The Obedient Church of God and we follow every jot and title of God’s Bible, and not one word of man. So welcome to The Obedient Church of God where you will find safety and protection in obedience to God’s Holy Scriptures.

15.)	Today is the 22nd September and that means it is Tishri 5 as the people in Jerusalem had sighted the crescent as you are supposed to, and not use an averaging calendar.  So you can faith in The Obedient Church of God having the Day of Atonement, the day of at-one-ment, on the correct day, which will be the 27th during the daylight period [starting on the 26th at sundown].

16.)	All of the other churches of God are moving God’s holy days two days early, one day late, one day early, two days late and that means that they are working, they will be working on the 27th because they will have Atonement on the 26th.

17.)	 So that means they will be “gathering sticks” and you know what happened to that man who gathered sticks on God’s holy Sabbath Day. He was stoned to death.  

18.)	We are The Obedient Church of God and God has given us the ability to see things clearly. Today’s broadcast in regard to seeing things clearly, we are going to explain to you about at-one-ment and the important information about at-one-ment is that you are being judged NOW, today this year [2012]. 

19.)	You do not have a last chance to repent during the Ten Days of Awe; you do not. Once Christ arrives, the dead in Christ will rise at His arrival. They will not rise on the Day of Awe, they will not rise on Atonement; they will rise at the last trump.

20.)	You don’t have a chance, as falsely proclaimed by the Jewish rabbis, to again during the Ten Days of Awe to have your last chance to repent. That’s a lie. That’s an outright lie because when you are changed to spirit, it will be at the last Trump, not ten days later on the Day of Atonement. So we’ll be preaching to you about that.

21.)	We’ve got some sad news that we’ll tie in with that, also. One of our employees died this week. We’ll be giving some information to the new listeners, people tuning in, on where that person is regarding being in the ground or being in heaven. That ties in very well with information that we’ll be giving that you are being judged now, and that you will not, “not, not” have ten extra days.

22.)	So this is The Obedient Church of God and we are being given information that we can know the truth of God that even the rabbis and some ministers , some well thought of ministers in the Churches of God, have got completely fouled-up with the Days of Awe thinking they’ll have ten more days to repent.

23.)	 And we’ll tell you about the 38 points that The Obedient Church of God has. Think the 18 points that Mr. Armstrong had of rediscovered truth [was a lot]? Well, we have about 38; we have more than 18 that’s for sure.

24.)	First we have to enter the Throne Room, and to do so we have to come before our Father in prayer. So all please rise, face the North Heavens where Father and Yeshua are. Of course, you face Him; you don’t turn your back on Him. Turn and face the North Heavens, raise your arms, head bowed, and eyes closed.

25.)	“Almighty, most-merciful, loving Father with Yeshua at your right hand, praise and glory and power and dominion be to you and Yeshua forever and ever and ever and ever. 

26.)	“Only your ways work, Father. Only your way of life works, only your way of love works. Every other system has failed: the Roman Empire all the way down through history. 

27.)	“Father, we come before you on your Sabbath day to ask for your blessing on this service, on the speaking and on the hearing; and especially on the video tapes when the new people are listening. 

28.)	“Please be with the brethren in Pakistan, the 200 plus of them, find a way to feed them, give them the food that they need. Give them the protection because it is so dangerous now because the Muslims are all upset. They want to kill Christians or anything that has to do that isn’t Muslim. So please protect our brethren in Pakistan.

29.)	“Father, we know that the time is short; please give us the strength and the ability to inculcate all the knowledge you can in this short time, the time that we have now left before the arrival of Yeshua. Help us to get our lives in line with Yeshua’s ways. 

30.)	“Father we put our lives, our very lives into the hollow of your hand, and we trust in you to lead us and Yeshua as out King. 

31.)	“So Father we ask you to bless this service and we ask it all in Yeshua’s holy righteous name Yeshua ha Mashiach our soon arriving King of the world. Amen.”

32.)	 Yes indeed, our only, “only” hope is going to be Yeshua and His arrival. There is no other hope. There is no other hope for us at all, unless it was for Yeshua; unless we had Yeshua we’d all be dead forever. That’s how important Yeshua is; we have no eternal soul. We would be dead forever if it were not for Yeshua.

33.)	Now that we are in the Throne Room, we want to bring our praises to Yeshua, and because we are in the Feast Day season, we will be singing,“Behold, the Day will Come.” 

34.)	This is very important to know that with trumpets, we are looking forward to the third festival, which will be October 2nd on the daylight period. So we are announcing that for the Feast Day one, which starts the evening before on October 1st so there isn’t any confusion.  

35.)	 And we are announcing that on Atonement we will have services on the 27th, starting the evening before on the 26th [of September]. 

36.)	So now that we are in the Throne Room, without further ado, we want to praise our Father so all take your beautiful fuchsia 1934 style hymnals that say TOCOG right on the front. Is it any easier to find God’s Church? Just look on at TO COG. Go search on the Internet and type TO COG. Camera one. Camera two. Camera three. God gave us that name, led us to that name. But it makes perfect sense to use TO Church of God.

37.)	So now we want you to all please, “please” sing out, “Behold the Day Will Come.”  It is very important; it is your song of rejoicing to the Lord. It is page 120 in our hymnals and page 119 in other hymnals. The beauty of this is that we’ve got the whole choir from Public Domain singing it with us. So that is a real treat.

38.)	 So all please sing out; this is the fruit of your lips, your service to Father whereby you actually offer a sacrifice, which is the fruit of your lips. So it’s page 120 in ours, 119 in others, “Behold the Day Will Come.” All sing out.

39.)	 Yes indeed, behold, the day shall come, and the feast of booths so you should budget to have your tent, even if you are staying at home you need a tent to be in so that you can dwell in the tent as the Bible commands, it is the Feast of huts. More on that if we have time.

40.)	Now turn ahead to the next hymn, and “He Shall Reign Forever More,” and that’s very important for you to sing out because He shall reign forever more. This is the fruit of your lips. This is your right and lawful service. 

41.)	So it is worse than embarrassing yourself if you are going to sit there and not praise Father, and not tell Him He is going to reign forever more. Don’t make yourself look bad. Please sing out. Follow along with the words, [page 78 in other hymnals]. 

42.)	“He shall reign forever more.” Amen to that. He shall reign forever more. Now in keeping with our theme for the broadcast, “Unless the Lord Shall Build the House,” the weary builders toil in vain. If you don’t follow the doctrines of the Bible, you are toiling in vain. So all please sing out, “Unless the Lord Shall Build the House,” [Page 96 in other hymnals].

43.)	And for your benefit we sang all the verses this time. It is so important for you to sing out so that you can let Father see your heart by the inflection of your words even. Now you have got to give your best to Father.

44.)	 Give your best to Father, not your second rate. And if you are not even singing, that is even worse. It is worse than embarrassing yourself. It is actually going on your record. Father wants you from your heart to sing for Him. First, you’ve got to start somewhere, so at least force yourself, then perhaps perchance your heart can change, “your heart can change.” 

45.)	Now as usual we want to start off by telling you that all the Churches of God are disobeying Father by having the Sabbath Day on Friday in half the world, and they will not change.  They refuse to change. 

46.)	In fact, they are all celebrating Mother-goddess Day, the mother of all the gods and goddesses every spring time; and they are celebrating Sky Father’s Day, leading up to the longest day of the year the week before. Sky Father’s Day is in the encyclopedias the same way that Christmas is in the encyclopedias. 

47.)	You cannot say as a Church of God member that you won’t celebrate Christmas because it is pagan [the shortest day of the year], (you are correct; it is pagan and you shouldn’t celebrate it), and then around and celebrate the longest day of the year, Sky Father’s Day.

48.)	 So you refuse to celebrate the shortest day of the year, and bring back Baal the Sun god, but you joyfully celebrate the longest day of the year. You are using Hitler’s day, Sky Father’s Day, the devil’s day, to honor your father on earth when you have 364 other days during the year to honor your father on earth and not use the devil’s day.

49.)	The same way you know that Christmas is the shortest day of the year, Sky Father’s Day is the longest. Right there you’ve got strikes against you. 

50.)	The first strike against you is moving the Sabbath Day all you Churches of God so that your people are working, picking up sticks on the Sabbath Day in half the world.

51.)	Strike two is you are celebrating Mother-goddess Day, all of you so-called righteous Churches of God who claim to be Philadelphian. 

52.)	Strike three is Sky-Father’s Day against you.

53.)	Now you have strike four coming up. Look up in any encyclopedia the Harvest Home Festival, Thanksgiving Day, and it is Turkey-god Day. It always has been, and always will be.

54.)	 And you can’t say that you are going to use the same day that the Satanists are using, and that Baal-worshippers are using, and Osiris and Ra sprang from the egg that was laid by the Cosmic goose. So you put a goose or [more likely] a turkey on your dining- room table since Bradford used turkeys because all the geese had flown south.

55.)	It didn’t just pop into Governor Bradford’s head to serve wild turkey and have Thanksgiving Day because he celebrated for three days, three days long, exactly the same way as the pagans did. And, indeed, the Indians that arrived celebrated for three days in the way that they always had. Hopefully, they weren’t of the tribe that sacrificed a virgin on that day also, but further south they did.

56.)	The point of it is you’ve got four strikes against you now, not the mention the other strikes against you. You say that you are righteous, you Churches of God, here are the facts: these are not theories, these are facts. Yours facts are, with Tabernacles coming up, you must dwell in a temporary dwelling. That’s right.

57.)	All of the Orthodox Jews who know how to follow God’s Bible sleep on their balconies for seven days. And if you are in a colder area, you don’t sleep with an open roof although you’d like to, you have to use a tent because it is the Feast of temporary dwelling. 

58.)	And if you are in a hotel room, you put a tent on your bed, and you sleep in the tent in a warm condition if you are in a very cold climate. 

59.)	Now we had so many points besides our denunciation of Mother-goddess Day, the mother of all gods that we won’t take the time to go through all of them, but let’s go through some of them. One of the things that is so important is that you should not be hiring four people on the Sabbath Day. 

60.)	All of the Churches head out straight from services and break God’s law that you should not be hiring people on the Sabbath Day. You hire a cook, a waitress, a hostess and a cashier, or any combination of the above. You hire at least two people, a manager and a cook. Well, that is a sin. You are supposed to teach them to come to service on the Sabbath.

61.)	Now we also tell you that the other churches won’t tell you is that you go to the feast three times a year. Deuteronomy 16:16 says so, and if you save your money, you will have enough for $300.00 air fare. When you come here you could camp on the hill, and it is free. 

62.)	You don’t use an averaging calendar and have God’s holy days one day early, two days late; two days early, and one day late like the Living Church of God does, the United Church of God does.

63.)	I.) There is no Mother-goddess Day;                                                                                                        II.) There is not Sky Father’s Day;                                                                                                       III.) There is no Turkey-god Day;                                                                                                          IV.) There is no hiring, putting people to work on God’s Sabbath;                             
V.) Go to the Feast three times a year;                                                                                       VI.) It is wrong to average God’s holy days [by using the Hillel II calendar];                                                                                                    VII.) It is wrong to move God’s Sabbath to Friday in half of the world [west of the IDL].                                                    These are rediscovered truths of The Obedient Church of God through its correspondence  

64.)	VIII.) It is the Khazars who are the Jews of the synagogue of satan who were grafted into the tribe of Judah who are not Jews and who are not converted.

65.)	IX.) Leaders of Israel are Masons. Netanyahu is a 33 degree Mason; Shimon Perez is a 33 degree Mason.

66.)	X.) Jesuits are running the whole world.

67.)	XI.) [Stan] Rader who was in charge of the old Worldwide Church of God, was a Jesuit plant.

68.)	XII.) Armstrong was guilty of committing incest; he could not be converted and for ten years be raping his daughter. If he raped her once that would be bad enough, but not for ten years. He had her in a hotel room where the hotel manager came running to his room because of all the commotion, and Herbert said I’m having trouble with my new wife. And then he tied “his wife,” Dorothy his daughter, to the bed and raped her.

69.)	The Obedient Church of God is the only Church of God that is not lying about it; there might be one other Church of God. In as much that we are admitting that Herbert Armstrong was used by God just like Cyrus was. Cyrus was totally unconverted, but Cyrus got the second temple built; if it wasn’t for unconverted Cyrus the second temple wouldn’t have been built.   

70.)	XIII.) If it wasn’t for unconverted Herbert Armstrong, the spiritual temple would never have been built. He couldn’t have been raping his daughter for ten years and say he was converted. And he admitted it.

71.)	 When questioned in court, he said there are times I haven’t been as close to God as I should have been. He didn’t scream out I never did any such thing. That’s a horrific lie. He never denied it. 

72.)	But guess what? All of the Churches of God [leaders] are liars; they are lying and bearing false witness and covering it up like Penn State covered-up Sandusky’s immorality.

73.)	You are listening to The Obedient Church of God and I don’t think you want to be with a bunch of lying Churches of God.

74.)	XIV.) The Lord’s [last] supper, the Lord’s going away dinner, is not the Passover. So none of the Churches of God except one or two even celebrate the Passover. 

75.)	XV.) And Sivan 6 is Pentecost, not Monday, not Sunday, Sivan 5,6,or 7; Yeshua celebrated Sivan 6 because the Pharisees were in charge of the Temple and the Pharisees determined the days of the Temple.

76.)	Herbert Armstrong changed Sivan 6 in 1937 to a Monday Pentecost [because he changed counting the 50 days for Pentecost from the day after Passover to counting from the weekly Sabbath during the seven Days of Unleavened Bread, which was an error].  We know about that, but none of the other Churches of God knew about that. One of them is printing it now, but they know about that before I told them.

77.)	XVI.) There are no Jewish postponements. The Obedient Church of God is listed among the Churches of God offshoot’s records.  In one of the listings, lo and behold what they say next to our name, they call us an “anti-postponement” group. Yes, we are an “anti-postponement” group, but what about the other thirty points that we are trying to tell you about?

78.)	Other points The Obedient Church of God is telling the other Churches of God about are Mother-goddess Day, Sky Father’s Day, Turkey-god Day, moving the Sabbath Day to Friday in half the world, going to the feast three times a year, and stop averaging God’s holy days [by using a Hillel II calendar].   

79.)	The Obedient Church of God is telling the Churches of God that the Khazars are running Judah-Israel; Netanyahu and Perez are Masons.

80.)	Point XVII.) is that the leader of the Living Church of God, Roderick Meredith, was a satanic DeMolay, which was to prepare young men to become Masons. 

81.)	Well, I think you should come into the safety of The Obedient Church of God, because, remember, we preach there isn’t any “potential visibility,” and XVIII.) you must have two witnesses, each with two eyeballs, to see the crescent moon [in Jerusalem].

82.)	Another rediscovered truth is XIX.) the “two witnesses” are the two bears that will tear the world apart just like the two bears that tore 42 young men, not children, who were mocking Elisha.  And the “two witnesses” will tear the world apart. 

83.)	We’ll give you some more of the “tid bits” regarding the understanding of the New World Order, and one of the biggest things is XX.) we celebrate New Moon Day. None of the other churches do. It was never done away with. The New Moon Day was never, ever done away with. It is a holy Sabbath commanded in the Bible, Ezekiel 46:3.

84.)	 What we are dealing with is these people calling themselves Christians that were never Christians at all. Dr. Hoeh would write whatever the company wanted him to write, he would twist it around; and Dr. Hoeh was known as a “flaming homosexual” by most of the staff of Worldwide [Church of God].  It wasn’t talked about though.

85.)	One of our newer rediscovered truths XXI.) is as oft as you meet the kiddish, the bread and the wine in honor of Yeshua, is done, obviously, at Passover, and at Pentecost, and at the Feast of Tabernacles. You do the kiddush as often as you meet [3 times a year].

86.)	I always wondered why the first evening of the Feast of Tabernacles seemed a little empty, “off-kilter.” That’s when you have a kiddush and foot washing, and you do the same thing on the first evening of Pentecost and then you have the service on the day light time of Pentecost. 

87.)	XXII.) The only time they could wash each other’s feet is when they did meet together, which was for Passover, Pentecost, and Feast of Tabernacles, [3 times a year]. 

88.)	One rediscovered truth was XXIII.) how Mr. Armstrong was “the worthless shepherd.” He was a shepherd all right, but he was a worthless shepherd, one who “stripped the hooves off the sheep.” How did he do that? He had people sell their houses and give the money to him. 

89.)	Mr. Herbert Armstrong bought himself gold dining room ware, Stuben crystal glasses, and a million dollar art collection, the walls covered with the finest [pictures of] woods from around the world. And he bought a $10 million jet [plane]. He “ripped the hooves off of the sheep.”  

90.)	We are the only ones that have put it all together, “we are the only ones that have put it all together” for you. We want you to know XXIV.) that there are 80 books in the Bible. The original King James [translation] had eighty books, and then 14 books were removed; so we The Obedient Church of God go by the eighty books

91.)	We’ve got more rediscovered truth for you, XXV.) and that is when the “two witnesses” die, Revelation 11:13, seven thousand die instantly, and you can tie that in with Satan being in big trouble, “Satan being in big trouble” for killing the “two witnesses.” 
And therefore, 7,000 of Satan’s die, people of Satan die [by an earthquake]. (It could even be 7,000 fallen angles are burned up, their life force is taken away from them.)

92.)	Bear Note: XXVI.) God spoke the world and the universe into existence the same way I can speak, you can speak, words on to a piece of paper by using a voice recognition program. You set up the mechanics, the physics of it, you speak and the printer prints. That’s the same way Father set up the physics of the world so that when he said His words, he could speak things into existence.  

93.)	  That is another rediscovered truth by The Obedient Church of God. We want to tell you that you have to follow The Obedient Church of God in order to be in line with the Bible or else you are just dead men walking. You are just plain “dead men walking.”
And we are trying to comfort you, “we are trying to comfort you.” We want the best for you.
94.)	XXVII.) There are two groups of 144,000. Only The Obedient Church of God knows that and teaches that. There are two groups of 144,000: there’s a first group of a mixed multitude all the way from the time of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and they are mixed up, including Rahab the harlot and Gentiles mixed in; there’s one group of 144,000. 
95.)	There’s a second group that goes through the tribulation and they are of all of the twelve tribes. XXVIII.) Another truth is there are actually fourteen tribes if you add the sons of Joseph, Ephraim and Manasseh.

96.)	There are two groups of 144,000. No one else is teaching you that. XXIX.) We also taught you that Jonah also means “dove” and the dove was sent to save Ninevah, and the dove was the Holy Spirit that descended upon Christ [when He was baptized], and the dove came out of the Ark. The Holy Spirit is present when the dove is present, and Jonah was the dove; that is what His name means.

97.)	You’ve got these rediscovered truths. It’s unbelievable. We just keep coming out with God showing us more and more and more.

98.)	XXX.) We’ve got the correct third tithe years. [You don’t count] from the date of your baptism; it’s the date of the year of release, “the date of the year of release.” You tithe twice every seven years. You count one, two, three and that’s a third tithe year; and you count four, five, six and that’s a third tithe year, and then you have the year of release which is seven. Then you start all over again. No one else is teaching you that. 

99.)	We also have “tid bits” of truth. XXXI.) You know that men will hide themselves in the ground and the rocks of the earth; and there are underground cities that exist that are hollowed out that are two miles across. 

100.)	XXXII.) Ezekiel 13:18-20 tells that those who fly away to save themselves go up to the space station; they go up to save themselves from the terror from the one who is on the earth, Yeshua. God will bring them back, “God will bring them back.”

101.)	XXXIII.) There are ten groups of nations, not just ten kings; and we’ve named off the groups. North America will include Mexico, United States, and Canada, and that will be one of them.   

102.)	 XXXIV.) We’ve also preached that Herbert Armstrong was not wrong when he published his booklet about “1975 in Prophecy.” It takes forty years to get through the spiritual wilderness. 

103.)	We can even give you another one, XXXV.) that is “seven women to one man.” Well, what about “seven churches”? Churches are women. Seven churches to one Christ.

104.)	How about another one, XXXVI.) You are only Jewish if your mother was a Jew, because if your mother was a Jew half of you has got to be Jewish.  Most people don’t know that.   

105.)	XXXVII.) Princess Diana was of the line of David, while the House of Windsor is a bunch of mad Germans. They are all German, they are not Jewish. They are not of the tribe of Judah. Princess Diana was, from which the scepter shall not depart, but the Queen changed her name to the House of Windsor. We don’t have time to go into that.

106.)	Last week XXXVIII.) we showed you that it is one year of Trumpet s when we itemized 30 days of one, 30 days of another, 5 months for one, ½ hour of silence in heaven, which is 15 days of a month, etc. We calculated it out and it adds up to 364 days. 

107.)	There is so much truth that The Obedient Church of God has that we can’t keep track of it all. We’ve tried to put it into our Bear Note book, but we haven’t put it all back together again. We are the church that will give you safety and protection. 

108.)	XXXIX.) Remember the Holy Spirit came on Pentecost? We told you the flames of fire were actually plasma speakers where flames can talk. We’ve got the science, we’ve got the spiritual knowledge also. 

109.)	XL.) I’ll just add a new one for you here. Because of the angels, a woman must keep her head covered. That is so Satan knows not to mess with her, not to mess with that woman because by having her hair covered during services, she shows that she is obedient to Yeshua and Father.

110.)	 Therefore the demonic angels don’t mess with her, the nephalim type angels won’t try to rape her because she is obedient to Father and takes on the covering of Christ and she proves it by physically having a head covering. That’s what the Bible says.

111.)	  The Churches of God recognize no other practices. Don’t get the woman’s head covering confused with the tallit, the man’s prayer shawl, [which is not Biblical to use.]  
A man speaks to Father mono to mono, man to man without hiding under a prayer shawl the way the Jews do. They actually pull it over their face and cover their face and their head. What kind of conversation is that if you are hiding your face from Him? 

112.)	I’m telling you that the Jews don’t always have it right.

113.)	Just make sure you are dwelling in a Sukkah for seven days and not just spending time in there. Sleep in a tent if it is cold in your area, but actually sleep in it.

114.)	We want the best for you. What is so hard about obeying God? It is beautiful to obey God, and you can have peace of mind also, not to mention all the blessings that come along with it. 

115.)	We in The Obedient Church of God are showing you the way of God when the other churches are just lying by calling themselves Philadelphian because they don’t do what the Philadelphian Church does.

116.)	They celebrate Mother-goddess Day, Sky Father’s Day, Turkey-god Day; they move the Sabbath to the sixth-day in half the world, and all the other practices   that I’ve mentioned. So there is only one hope, “there is only one hope” and that is for you to hit the mark. How do you hit the mark? By following the truth of The Obedient Church of God, or else you are going to miss the mark.

117.)	If you are going to have the Sabbath on Friday, that’s a big one; that’s a test commandment where the mark of God is on you, which is the [seventh-day] Sabbath.

118.)	We have more than the 18 truths that Mr. Armstrong had. We have at least 40.4

119.)	Now in the opening of the broadcast I mentioned that we had a death this week; one of our acquaintances who also did some work for us, and who was a fine young man, took his life. 

120.)	The last time I saw him a week ago he was smiling and he waved to me, and I waved back and gave him a “thumbs up,” but laughing on the outside, crying on the inside. His name was Jesse; he was a man who was doing a lot of transportation for us, bringing a lot of parts to us.

121.)	Jesse, unfortunately overdosed, and he did it deliberately because he collected a bunch of pills and took them deliberately. Now for the friends of Jesse that are tuning in today, we want to give you some information. The good in terms of a good heart are taken away by God. 

122.)	We hear that only the good die young, well, there is some truth to that. If somebody is not being called by God because they do not know the truth of God, they can’t understand the truth of God, because God has not put that component into their mind. 

123.)	Remember there are two spirits: there is the spirit of man and the Spirit of God that is given as an earnest, a tiny portion, a little increment, at baptism by the laying on of hands. Your human spirit distinguishes you from the animals; that’s what makes us different from the apes. And, no, we didn’t descend from apes for the new listeners. If we descended from apes, how come we still have apes? Evolution is so ridiculous.

124.)	I mentioned in a broadcast a week or two ago that you have 60,000 miles of blood vessels in your body; 60,000 miles and they are all the right size and they have the right tension and the right direction.

125.)	 Not to mention your bones; they are not placed by accident where they are. If it all happened by accident, why don’t you have your fingers where your toes are? Why don’t you have your arms where your feet are? Why do you have a skull? Why do you even have a skull? Why do you have eye sockets?

126.)	Not to mention the complexity of the reverse image that flips in your head as you receive all the pixels. Why do you have a head? Just happen by accident? It is absurd.

127.)	The Bible says they became fools, not acknowledging the things of God. Well, God has a plan, and God sees certain individuals in this world who He is not calling at this particular time, and Father will take them away prematurely or early, and that is important for you to know. 

128.)	I had a friend back in university days who had a part-time job cleaning windows because he needed money. And on the scaffolding at the fourth floor, the scaffolding tipped and over the side of the building he went and he was killed. His name was Don and he was a good friend.

129.)	I had another friend named Les who was driving his Volkswagon on the highway and he died in a head-on crash.

130.)	Both Don and Les were not Christians in the sense of the word, but they were nice guys. They never beat up anybody, they never got into fights, and they never made trouble.

131.)	I had another buddy by the name of Bob, Robert; he was the fellow who played the Grand Masters in chess, and Rob was taken away early. Robert was a great cordial fellow. 

132.)	Now to give you comfort that good, in the sense of worldly good, people are taken away prematurely by God so that they don’t have to go through all of the trouble that coming upon this earth, and there is trouble that is coming upon this earth big time.
Men are going to call upon the rocks to fall on them so that they can escape. Women will be eating their children, “women will be eating their children;” that’s how bad it is going to be.

133.)	So God does take away some people prematurely without putting His Spirit into them. Father does that out of compassion, and, fortunately, when people pass away before their time, before asking why.

134.)	So here is another rediscovered truth for you. Bear Note: XLI.) When people pass away prematurely, God is protecting them from evil to come. Also, when Christians are taken away prematurely, God is protecting them from the evil to come.

135.)	Isaiah 57:1, and this ties right in with the Day of Atonement coming up, and with your judgment and the rest of it. We’ll be talking later in this broadcast how you don’t have ten extra days. The dead rise up when Christ comes, and you who are alive will be in the clouds ten days later. 

136.)	Isaiah 57:1, “The righteous perish and no one ponders in his heart; devout men are taken away and no one understands that the righteous are taken away to be spared from evil.” New International Version.

137.)	Isaiah 57:1, “Good people pass away; the Godly often die before their time, but no one seems to care or wonder why.” New Living Translation No one seems to understand that God is protecting them from the evil to come, and we know that we are going to be going through hell on earth in the next seven years, probably starting this January, 2013. 

138.)	Isaiah 57:1 “Good people pass away …God is protecting them from the evil to come.”

139.)	Isaiah 57:1, “The righteous perish; and no man lays it to heart, but merciful men are taken away; none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil to come.” King James, Cambridge Ed.

140.)	  Isaiah 57:1, “Righteous people die and no one cares; loyal people are taken away and no one understands; righteous people are spared when evil comes.” God’s Word Translation 

141.)	Isaiah 57:1, “The righteous perish and no one lays it to heart, but merciful men are taken away; none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil to come.” King James 2000

142.)	Isaiah 57:1, “The righteous perishes, and no man lays it to heart; and the merciful men are taken away, not considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil to come.” American King James

143.)	Isaiah 57:1, “…none considering that the righteous is taken away from before the evil.” Darby Translation

144.)	Most of them say “from the evil to come.” 

145.)	I particularly like the God’s Word Translation, “Righteous people are spared when evil comes.”

146.)	So my friend Don, my friend Les, my friend Bob, and my friend Jesse now this last week, a worker who always had a big smile, was always happy, positive, have been taken away from the evil that is to come.

147.)	Now God also needs people to do his work. So if you are a nice person and you are not taken away, God has some work for you to do here. You might have to witness to others, you might have to do your service to God, and that’s why you are still alive. Not because you are evil, but because God needs you to work for him.

148.)	Now no one lays it to heart because no one can figure it out, “no one can figure it out.” And it is just stupidity when people see that good people die young and they don’t pay attention to it, they don’t figure it out, they don’t figure it out. 

149.)	So who are these people who die young? If you go into the different translations, its merciful men; who are these merciful men? Men of kindness. Jesse had a lot of kindness. Or men of Godliness, pious men; so we denote mercy and kindness: chesed, the actual Hebrew word, mercy and kindness. That is, people who have mercy on others, or people who are pious, devoted to God.

150.)	 And when in Hebrew they are taken away, it can also mean that they are gathered. That is, they are gathered to their Father by death. They are not considering it, they aren’t even anxious to know; they don’t even bother to figure it out, that divine providence is permitting it.

151.)	So take comfort that Jesse was put to sleep. And that is where Jesse is right now; he is in the dust of the ground—he’s going to be cremated. We are not going to get into cremation; we haven’t got time for that.

152.)	Here’s the point for comforting you: God has a plan for Jesse, and for my friend Don, and for my friend Bob, and for my friend Les, and they are all coming up in the second resurrection and given their first opportunity to know God by the Holy Spirit of God being available to all.

153.)	For the new listeners out there and for Jesses and his friends, we are in the “Bible Belt;” there is a Baptist Church  right on this street called the “Friendship Fellowship  Church” right down the road from us.

154.)	So let’s go over a few things so that you know what God has in store for Jesse in terms of hope. And to know that Jesse is resting, waiting all his days for his change to come. 

155.)	Now a lot of people get thrown off by Hebrews 11:5 where it tells us that Enoch was taken away so that he (Enoch) did not see death. The correct translation is Enoch was taken away so that he wasn’t killed, so that he didn’t get killed.  

156.)	Another quotation from Genesis 5, says that he was not found. Well, if he was not found, use some intelligence here-- that means somebody is looking for him. That’s right. So he is taken away so that he didn’t get killed because somebody was looking for him to cause him harm; and God protected Enoch by removing him to a safe place.

157.)	Now some think that God took him to heaven, but the verse doesn’t say that. It says, “taken away.” That is translated in the King James Version from the Greek word, metatithemi, which means to transfer to another place. That’s from Vine’s dictionary of Biblical words, 1985.

158.)	So, it doesn’t say that God took Enoch to heaven, it doesn’t say that. It says that he was translated, taken away. “Metatithemi” means to transfer to another place. So that takes care of the “straw-man” argument that he, in Hebrews 11:5, that Enoch was taken away [King James uses :translated]so that he did not see death, that he did not get killed. Enoch still died, he lived out his life span in another place.

159.)	Now what about Elijah? This is another classic one that is quoted. You’ll like this. This is another rediscovered truth of The Obedient Church of God on the proof of this, what about Elijah? Read the full history. And go to II Kings 2: 11 and then I can show you something about Chronicles. 

160.)	We know that the book of Kings is before Chronicles and we know that the history, kings, appears before the letters in chronicles. Here’s the point: 

161.)	Bear Note: You have got a letter that is written in II Chronicles 21:12-15, you’ve got a letter that Elijah wrote years, years, years afterwards, after he was taken away. God didn’t take him to heaven; God moved Elijah to a different place on the earth. 

162.)	Bear Note: In II Chronicles 21:12-15 Elijah the prophet is sending a letter, “And a letter came…from Elijah the prophet,” and that was after Elijah was taken away. He was moved from one spot on the earth to another by a flaming chariot. Elijah didn’t die, and that is born our by him sending a letter years later; he was still alive.

163.)	     Bear Note: Another rediscovered truth from The Obedient Church of God. It is actually fun tuning into these broadcasts because you never know what you are going to hear next that is true. So what had happened here is that XLII.)  Elijah was transported to a different location through the earth’s atmosphere. 

164.)	Now for the new listeners out there, there are three heavens. Where the word heaven is used, the scriptures speak of heavens; there are three of them. For the 101 level out there, and 101 level is excellent, “excellent, excellent, excellent,” because  you’ve got to start somewhere. 

165.)	Genesis 1:8, “God called the Firmament Heaven.” That is the atmosphere that envelopes the earth, so that’s the first heaven. You fly in that heaven when you go on an airplane. 

166.)	Genesis 1:9, “And God said, let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto to one place, and let the dry land appear; and it was so.” So, under the clouds, the waters were gathered unto the clouds, one place. 

167.)	Second type of heaven: that is where the space shuttle flies up to the space station. That’s where the Mars Lander flies. That’s what we call space; that’s the second heaven. Genesis 15:5, “And he brought him outside, and said Look now towards heaven, and count the stars. You are to number them [if you are able]. That is space.

168.)	Now, the third heaven is the location of God’s Throne, and that is in II Corinthians 12:2. This verse states, “I know a man in Christ who 14 years ago, whether in the body, I do not know; whether out of the body, I do not know; God knows. Such a one was caught up to the third heaven.”

169.)	This was in vision because verse 1 of chapter 12 says, “visions and revelations” of the Lord,” able to boast come to “visions and revelations of the Lord.” You know the Bible is so involved, I could spend a whole day just on that particular “visions and revelations of the Lord.”

170.)	The point here is that there are three heavens, for all the new listeners.

171.)	So, we’ve got Enoch and Elijah, which were taken up into the first heaven, which is the atmosphere, or unless God gave them some type of breathing apparatus, they would have suffocated if they went up any higher into space. And they were human, because Elijah wrote a letter years, “years” later.

172.)	Bear Note: Years later Elijah wrote a letter after he was transported in a flaming chariot of fire [up into the atmosphere] and moved [one place to another place] so that they couldn’t be harmed.

173.)	For anyone who still wants to argue, the Bible teaches that no one has ascended to heaven. So Jesse, my friend and worker, is not in heaven; he is waiting all his days for his change to come. It is very clear in John 3:13; Yeshua didn’t have any ambiguity here when he said “No one has ascended to heaven.” Yeshua said way after the days of the prophets. He said this in the New Testament in the time of John the apostle. 

174.)	By the way; “…scripture cannot be broken.” Remember John 10:35? The scripture says in John 3:13, “No one has ascended to heaven.” Still want to argue? What about Acts 2: 29 where it talks about King David who he alluded to. “Men and brethren … David is dead and buried, and his tomb is with us today.” 

175.)	Someone might say that that is just his tomb, but he is in heaven. No. Remember there is that sharp two-edged sword behind me. You might get whacked with that. Verse 34 says, “For David is not ascended into the heavens.” David did not ascend into the heavens, and scripture can’t be broken. So there you have it.

176.)	Poor Jesse. Actually Jesse is lucky because he is taken away from the seven years of tribulation; he is asleep in the dust of the ground. 

177.)	Now for the rest of us, only if we follow the narrow way, and if we clean up our lives, will we even have a hope? There will be plenty of people that say we believe in God, and it doesn’t matter if you say you believe in God, you have to do the will of your Father.

178.)	Matthew 7:21, those of us who are left alive now, we have to do the will of our Father. It says, “Not everyone who says to me, 7:21, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the Kingdom of heaven, only he who does the will of the Father who is in heaven.” 

179.)	And the translation is “the Kingdom of God.” The point is we who are alive now have our work cut out for us. And the theology is such that you just can’t have your heart in the right place, you have to be a doer.

180.)	There are two kinds of faith: a dead faith, and a live faith. Live faith is the faith of actually doing what is written in your manual. That means celebrating all of the holy days coming up, because that is how you inculcate into your mind a confidence in the plan of God. 

181.)	You know that there will be a period of time where people will be given the opportunity to know God. In Isaiah 65:20 the sinner will live to a hundred years, and that happens after the 1,000 years are over.

182.)	I showed you last week where we would be picking up bones for seven months from the Valley Megiddo, Valley of Hinnom, where 200 million men are killed. The blood is going to run as high as the horses’ bridal. 

183.)	Jesse doesn’t have to go through all of that or be troubled by all of that in news reports, or have to go into captivity as the United States will go into captivity because we don’t own any of the United States. We are all pledged for credit to pay for debts that we run up to the Chinese and to other nations, and we the American people are pledged for the debt.

184.)	It is not going to be any mystery that we are going to go into captivity to pay for the debts that we ran up.

185.)	Bear Note: Your birth certificate has a number on it so they can keep track of you right from the day you were born. 

186.)	You are collateral, “you are collateral” for the U. S. debt. You are workers who produce GDP, Gross Domestic Produce, and as such the evil leaders can get credit from other countries because of our GDP which is produced by you. You are the workers. 	   

187.)	Back on point here. You can’t just say that you believe in God. You try to say that you confess with your mouth in Romans 10:9-10 that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead and you’ll be saved.

188.)	Well, actually, Romans 10 in context here is your answer: how will they hear without a preacher? Confessing Jesus is Lord is that you are now a follower of Jesus; you are walking in His footsteps.  

189.)	If Jesus is Lord and you are considering Him Lord, and that means boss, Jesus is your boss; therefore, you will be following in his footsteps. You are confessing that Jesus is your Lord, He is your boss, and remember that that confession  was considered heresy in Roman times; it was considered treason because it was Caesar who was your Lord, and who was your boss, the one who you obeyed.

190.)	In Romans 10 it was Jesus who was Lord, not Caesar. Yahveh is the Lord, and that was your confession in Roman times; that’s why they threw you to the lions because you were not confessing that Caesar was Lord; you were saying that Yahveh is Lord.

191.)	Your confession of faith accompanied your public baptism in the closest river or lake. By the way we have a river at the end of this street; you could be baptized in there since there are spots in the river that are very deep. And we have a baptismal font that you could also use.

192.)	But first you have got to study, and know that Jesus is Lord, and in the context of Romans 10, how will they hear this without a preacher?  The best thing is that Jesus is Lord and not Caesar, and not the other false ministers.

193.)	 So, you’ve confessed that Jesus is Lord, you follow Yeshua and you do everything Yeshua does. It is a fallacy that you are just going to say, yes, Jesus is Lord, and then does whatever you want to do. That’s why few will enter the Kingdom, and the road is narrow.

194.)	That’s why there are only five of the virgins. There are all of these churches of God, but there are only five virgins that enter the Kingdom, and those virgins are the ones who kept their lamps trimmed and burning.

195.)	So now we know that you can’t only confess God and you’ll be poof, automatically in the Kingdom. We know that Yeshua has to be running your life and not Caesar and not Rome, and not any Roman practices, such as, Mother-goddess Day, Sky Father’s Day, and Turkey-god Day. Those are all practices of the world and the Gentiles.

196.)	We are not supposed to learn the way of the Gentiles; we are supposed to be called to conversion and repentance. That was what was done in the first century. That was the type of preaching in the First Century. 

197.)	Bear Note: The type of preaching in the First Century was a call to repentance, and that is known as krygma. It is the teaching of the resurrection and the ascension and the rule of Christ. That was the type of teaching that the apostles did. 

198.)	The focus was to walk as Yeshua walked, and they communicated that. They had to be a new person and walk every way that Yeshua walked. And they proclaimed the doctrine just like we are proclaiming that Yeshua was the only one who was raised from the dead.

199.)	By the way while we are on that topic, what about the thief on the cross? Jesus said, “Verily thou shalt be with me in heaven.” There was no punctuation in the Bible, and in every different translation the translator has to put in the punctuation. 

200.)	Therefore, the way it reads is wrong. “Verily I say to you, today…” is wrong. No. It doesn’t read like that. XLIII.) What it does read, “Verily I say to you today, thou shalt be with me in Paradise.”[This is the correct translation.] 

201.)	So, verily I say to you today, while I’m hanging on this cross, when I seem totally powerless, when I am bleeding to death upon this cross, having been ripped to ribbons and torn- up, I can say to you while I’m on this cross today, thou shalt be with me in Paradise. 

202.)	Bear Note: Was Yeshua in heaven on that day [when he said,] today you shall be with me in Paradise? Was Yeshua in heaven? Yeshua didn’t ascend to the Father for two days. He told Mary not to touch Him. You can’t touch me, I haven’t ascended to the Father [is what He said], and that was two days later. It was two days later and Yeshua hadn’t ascended to the Father yet.

203.)	So, of course, XLIII.) it can’t be today thou shalt be with me in Paradise because Yeshua wasn’t even in Paradise in the Kingdom. Yeshua hadn’t even ascended.  [Points 200. and 203. are another rediscovered truth.] 

204.)	We have given you the correct reading of the Bible. 

205.)	We are very sorry when our friends are taken away; we are sad and we even cry, and it is jarring to lose a friend at a young age. Jesse left behind a wife and a two-year old boy, and it is sad, “it is sad,” and we mourn with those who mourn, and we comfort those who mourn.  

206.)	 We’ll play a song for you to give you more context of this. It is a classic called “Old Rivers,” sung by Walter Brennan. It is about a man whose friend passed away.

207.)	Yes, indeed. The last time I saw Jesse was when he was happy and smiling from the convertible that he was in at the shopping center lot. And we are going to see him smiling again. That is comfort for all of his friends listening, and we’ll see Jesse again smiling and happy.

208.)	God has intended to take some of the people away before the tribulation so that they will not have to go through it. And we who are left behind are being judged now if we have taken our baptism, and had the laying on of hands, and been given the Holy Spirit.

209.)	I’ve got to tell you long time listeners now and switch to the truth about Yom Kippur, which I promised you, and it is so important for you to know. 

210.)	Yeshua, when He arrives, raises the saved in Christ in the First Resurrection. And by the way, there are two resurrections, and we want you to know Jesse will come up in the second resurrection after the thousand years.

211.)	 But there is also the First Resurrection that comes on the day of Christ’s arrival, and Christ arrives on Trumpets and starts battling the nations. And that is when He kills 200 million men on the seventh trump. 

212.)	He is on this earth and when His feet touch the Mount of Olives, we shall be raised, but not on the Day of At-one-ment, not on Yom Kippur, “not, not, not.” There are some ministers that have it all twisted up, and the Jews have it all fouled up.

213.)	So I guess what we should do is go back and review Teshuva, what it means, “Teshuva, what it means.” It means to turn around, and to repent, and it is a period of time that the Jews claim it runs from the Day of Trumpets to the Day of Atonement.

214.)	The Jews claim that is a period of ten Days for you to repent in. How can you repent in those ten days when you have already been raised and have met Christ in the air? It is impossible, “it is impossible.”

215.)	XLIV.) Judgment in now upon the House of the Lord, and you are being judged every day, “every day.” 

216.)	The rest of the people aren’t being judged until after the 1,000 years. You’ve got to realize that if you are a Christian who has God’s Holy Spirit, and not a Christian who thinks he had God’s Spirit, your time of judgment is right now today before Christ arrives, before His feet touch the Mount of Olives.

217.)	 God has written your name in the Book of Life. Now the purpose is for you to have free will and for you to choose which path you will take before, “before” Atonement by developing the character. You can’t develop the character in just ten days. It can’t be done. I can’t be done. You can’t fool God because your heart has to be right.

218.)	Now the thief on the cross will be with God in Paradise. He will be going through the 100 years and learning the character. And Yeshua stated the He believed that the thief on the cross, the thief’s heart recognized Yeshua, the thief on the cross would make it through the 100 years of Isaiah 65:20, and that the thief would then be in Paradise. 

219.)	And Paradise is on this earth because the kingdoms of man become the kingdoms of God and His Christ. 

220.)	Now the dead are judged by their works, by the things written in the books; and judgment is now upon the House of the Lord, which is comprised of individuals who have made a vow not to just say they are Christians, but they have made a vow, they got baptized. When they have gotten baptized, they had the laying on of hands, and the Spirit of the Lord, an earnest of that Spirit came upon them. 

221.)	It is so serious now because once you have done that, you can’t apply Christ’s sacrifice twice. You can’t change your mind, then run the ways of the world, and then go back or else you are spurning Christ’s sacrifice.

222.)	So now Judgment is on the House of the Lord, and Judgment must begin at the House of the Lord, I Peter 4:17. And it has many aspects to it, many aspects to it. We don’t have time to bring up the other tape to explain this to you, but Judgment is now on the House of the Lord. 

223.)	 Judgment is on you now, and your name can be stricken off of the office room that Yeshua had prepared for you if you didn’t produce any fruits.

224.)	 Just to put a little scare into us here, remember Jesus cursed the fig tree because it didn’t produce any fruit; well, that’s a symbol of the impending judgment that is coming on the House of the Lord. This is just to put a little scare into you, the temple, “the temple of God,” which you are. 

225.)	Any of you who is sitting back there complacent, think of the fig tree that didn’t produce any fruit. That wasn’t in the Bible because Yeshua was a meany (because he was in a bad mood) and He cursed the fig tree; Yeshua never was in a bad mood. That’s in your Bible because it shows that you must produce fruit or you will be cursed by God 

226.)	It is more than just walking the straight and narrow way, you’ve got to be a productive tree, a productive one that is taking power from the vine because you are grafted in onto the vine and you are producing fruit. You better produce fruit because you love God, not just because you fear God. 

227.)	Now the people in the world will have to go through the tribulation, the ones whose hearts aren’t right in order to wake them up out of their complacency, and we all have to understand that. 

228.)	Yeshua and Father know every one’s heart; they know exactly what we are thinking. There is no way that we can fool Yeshua by our repenting on the last ten days between Trumpets and At-one-ment, because we will not have developed the character; and therefore, we will be cast into outer darkness because God can’t use someone in the First Resurrection that’s a faker, or who is trying to get into the door at the last minute during the last ten days.

229.)	XLV.) We have got to get right with God right now today and during seven years of growing. We can’t get in at the last back door [of God’s Kingdom]. Impossible. We can’t get in at the last Ten Days of Awe; it is too late.

230.)	We are right now in the final phase of judgment on the House of the Lord. Every day you are being judged if you are a Christian that is going to be in the First Resurrection. 

231.)	There is a whole other phase that takes place for 100 years after the thousand years, and there is a whole other phase of going through the tribulation, but if you want to be in that First Resurrection, you today are going through a phase of judgment right now, “right now.” That is the judgment that is on the House of the Lord right now, not during the last Ten Days of Awe.

232.)	You don’t want to be left desolate. You don’t want to be cursed like the fig tree. You know what happened with the destruction of Jerusalem. That is a type and anti-type of the destruction of the United States. It is going to be horrendous. 

233.)	There will be trials, pain, and sorrow; we’ll have to go through seven years until we reach the place of safety. The righteous suffer along with the unrighteous. 

234.)	We are going to close with “Old Man River.” Sit back and think about your friends and what they are going to have to go through. 

235.)	Now we’ll sing “Save Me O God by Thy Great Name.” That is our only hope now because judgment is now on us. So all please rise, take your song books and all sing out.  

236.)	Now the closing prayer. All please bow your heads, face the North Heavens, eyes closed. 

237.)	“Almighty and most-merciful Father with Yeshua at your right hand side, thank you for your wonderful plan for all people and for all mankind to have their opportunity to live the abundant life. You have a plan for the whole universe, because the whole universe longs and groans for your Son’s arrival. 

238.)	“Father we pray for the comfort of Jesse’s wife and his young two-year old boy, and for Jesse’s friends, jarring them since he died so suddenly. 

239.)	“Indeed for our own lives, help us with repentance with God’s Holy Spirit because we cannot repent in the last ten days. We’ve got to repent now. Thank you for that rediscovered truth that even all the Jews have got it wrong and all mixed- up as usual.

240.)	“Father, we ask for your care and your kindness to be showered upon all the friends of Jesse and your blessing to comfort them.

241.)	“And indeed, be with The Obedient Church of God and all of its members, and help us all prepare for the Feast of Tabernacles and the Day of Atonement coming up next week.

242.)	“Father, we thank you for your great plan, and we ask this all in Yeshua’s holy righteous name, Yeshua ha Mashiach and our soon arriving King Jesus Christ our Lord and God. Amen.”

243.)	Yes life is short, can be short. We’ve got to realize that we only have a short period of time the next seven years to repent in. So we’ll think again of Walter Brennan and his tribute to the man, “Old Rivers.” And that is the broadcast for today.
