The webinar of mass destruction, I think I’ve found it. But first of all, in John chapter 14, I want you to look there in verse one. Let not your heart be troubled. You believe in God, believe also in me, in my father’s house or many mansions. If it were not so, I would have told you. In other words, what he’s saying is I’m telling you the truth. See down in verse six, he says, I am the way, the truth and the life.

So what he’s saying up here has to be the truth or he is a liar. Jesus Christ is either who he claims to be or he is a liar. And the things he talks about concerning the thing that we cannot see. either it’s true or it’s a lie. It is Jesus who told the story about, you know, Lazarus and the rich man, and the rich man going to hell, and been in torment. And he says he saw Abraham afar off in Lazarus, and he cried, Father Abraham sent Lazarus, he may come and dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue for I am tormented in this flame.

And whenever he talks about heaven, he’s the one that says there is a heaven, so it must be true. If he says, how you get there, didn’t he must be telling the truth also? because he is truth. It says here in verse three, and if I go and prepare a place for you, place not state of mind, it’s a literal place. I will come again. That’s a promise. That must be the truth. He will come again and receive you unto myself.

I’m going to be with him. So that means that I am going to be with the Lord, God in the flesh or all eternity. That’s what he promised. And where I am, there you may be also. I’m going to be where he is. And whether I go, you know, and the way you know.” And Thomas said to him, Lord, we know not whether thou goest. In other words, I don’t know where you’re going. And how are we going to know the way?

He says, I am the way. In other words, he’s the only way to get to heaven. Now, if Jesus did not tell the truth, he told a lie. But if he told the truth, everything else in the world that says contrary to this is a lie. Either this is true or this is a lie. Now, there’s a multitude of religions and everybody’s trying to give their particular brand of religion. But he says, I am the way, I’m the truth, I am the life.

I’m the way to have eternal life. I’m the truth. He says, no man, last part of verse 6, get this, no man cometh unto the Father, but by me, there is nobody else. There’s no substitutes. There is not to be any other religion. God did not make up all these religions in the world and there’s a multitude of them and everybody’s claiming to be right and got some kind of special divine revelation. Well, the Bible goes all the way back to the very beginning.

You know what the book does. The Bible is an awesome book. The Bible not only tells us what has happened, the Bible tells us what is going to happen. And because of that, we can see what’s coming on the horizon. It’s a great time to live. We live at a very exciting time. I wanted to tell you that if this is the truth, this is the weapon for mass deliverance Sword. See the truth is what makes you free. Then it is a lie that enslaves.

So if you know the truth you can live free. So it is the weapon of mass deliverance but it’s alsosudo the weapon that can be used to set a man free individually, free, free from the fear of death and of sin, the power of sin. So it is a tremendous weapon against the evils of this world. Truth is the way we fight the devil. Truth is the way we keep ourselves clean and pure in our lives. It’s the truth That sets us free.

Well, if the truth does all that, it would be great for the individual, it would be great for the home, it would be great for the church, great for the nation, great for the whole world. But the world doesn’t seem to want the truth, and many nations don’t want the truth. Our nation seems to be rebelling against the truth. There’s people who go to church that don’t want the truth. They want the preacher to tickle their ears so they can sit there and just enjoy something and just talk about the love of God.

Don’t want to hear this about hell. I don’t want to hear about the wrath of God. I don’t want to hear what God hates. I don’t want to hear about sin. And there are churches that are promised of people that they won’t talk about those things. And they’re thriving. They’re thriving. People are just packing them out. I want you to look there in John 8. Look in John 8. In John 8, the Bible tells us in verse 44, Jesus Christ speaking here.

He also spoke in John chapter 14 and here in verse 44, he says, ye are of your Father the devil. Why did he say that? Why did he say that? Well, because of verse 43. He says in verse 43, why do you not understand my speech? Because you cannot hear my words. You don’t hear what I’m saying. Jesus Christ was God in the flesh. He says, you want the word and you talk about the word that Moses gave, he says, but if you believe the word, he said you to believe me.

He says, Moses wrote a lot of me. He said, if you say you believe the word, he says, search the scriptures for they are the ones that testify about me. In Isaiah in chapter 48 verse 3 of the 5, it talks about, he says, you are stiff-necked, hard-headed. This is God’s description of nation of Israel. He says, you don’t listen. You don’t hear. So he makes the statement here in verse 44, ye are of your father, the devil, the lust of your father, ye will do.

He was a murderer from the beginning, both not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speak of the lie, he speak of his own, for he is a liar and the father of it. Many believe this verse has several things mentioned in it, that he is a liar and the father of the lion. You see the antichrist that’s coming upon the earth is going to be the liar, the lion. He comes because like when God the father sent his son, he’s the truth.

The devil is going to have his son, the seed of Satan against the seed of God. And these seeds have children and here you’re talking about Christ and the anti-Christ and one is the truth and one is the lie and they’re going to have their moment in the sun. The day is coming and he is a liar and the father of him. This, believe it or not, is a weapon of mass destruction. If there’s anything that will destroy you, it is to believe a lie.

Did you know the only way you can go to heaven is to believe the truth. If you believe the lie and don’t trust Christ as your Savior, that is a weapon of destruction. It will destroy your soul in hell. God says, don’t worry about those who can take your life in Matthew 10. Those that can kill the body, that’s not the main thing. It’s what can destroy the soul of a man. And that will be the lie that a person believes that will damn his soul to eternity.

Now if it can destroy an individual believe in a lie it can destroy the family and if it can destroy family can destroy church believe in a lie and it can destroy our nation and it can destroy the nations of the world and the only reason that we’re headed in such a chaotic state in our world is because of the individuals and their families and their nations believe in the lies because they rebel against the truth and the tribulation is going to be a judgment not only upon the nation of Israel it’s going to be upon the whole world the whole world because they rebelled against the truth take your Bible look in 2nd Thessalonians in chapter 2 2nd Thessalonians in chapter 2.

The Bible says the Antichrist that’s coming upon the scene is going to deceive the world. How can you deceive the world unless they believe a lie? You believe the truth you’re not deceived. You believe a lie you’re being deceived. So people in the world day by day when you rebel against the Bible, even Christians, you rebel against the truth of the word of God and you believe lies. It affects your life, it affects your home, it affects your church, it affects the country, it affects everything.

Why? Believe in lies. So in 2 Thessalonians in chapter 2, I want you to look there in verse 2, excuse me, verse 9. Talking about when Christ comes back, even Him, verse 9, whose coming is after the working of Satan. Christ is going to come back to the earth after the seven year tribulation period where Satan will be working. with all power, signs and lying wonders, lying one other words, things that are going to happen that’s gonna deceive the people.

I’ve had people say, well I went to this here, healing me, and I saw a man healed. I saw a gourner on his neck totally disappeared, and therefore they know that has to be of God. That does not mean that’s of God. Satan can do a lot of things. Deceap people with wonders and signs, miraculous things. Remember when Moses went down to see the children of Israel and he was able to throw his rod down there and it became a snake.

You remember the magicians did the same thing. There’s wasn’t of God. There’s was of the devil. The devil can imitate. Mark. So when Christ came into the world, he claimed to be God. The anti-Christ is also going to claim to be God. Christ had a three and a half year ministry and the anti-Christ is going to have a three and a half year ministry. Christ came back from the dead. The end of Christ was supposed to be killed and come back from the dead.

similarities, copycat, but he is deceptive and he rules the world and people are not going to believe the truth. Look what he says in verse 10, and with all the sea-able-ness of unrighteousness in them that perish, now get this, you’re underlying this in your Bible, because they received not the love of the what’s that word, the truth that they might be saved. For this cause God shall send in strong delusions that they should believe of what? They’ll believe the lie.

They’re not going to let them believe the lie. Why? Because they wouldn’t believe the truth. See, you either accept the truth or you believe lies. Truth sets you free, lies enslaved. And it’s very destructive, whether it’s to an individual or to the family or to the nation or to the nations of the world. So he says these things are going to happen. Look in verse 1, that they all might be damned who believed not the truth. Christ is I am the way, the truth and the life.

So every person who does not go to the Father through the Son can’t go. And now all the religions of the world that teach contrary to this, they’re liars. And those that teach it are lying. Having said those wonderful things that I have just said, I want to share a couple things with you. This war on terrorism. We must be truthful as to what and who is the enemy and how they will strike. The enemy has brought their weapons into the United States.

I’ve seen them and I’m going to show you that in just a second. This is an article that I got, but listen to what it says. Because these are things that are making the newspapers. It’s on the evening news. How many of you in here got a chance to watch the Republican convention? Rudolph Gulliani at the Republican Convention praised George Bush response to the 9-11 attacks declared and I heard him when he said it. We stood face to face with those people and forces who hijacked not only airplanes but a religion turned it into a creed of terrorism dedicated to eradicating us in our way of life.

That’s what he said. But is that true? Now listen, This is where we’re headed. We’re headed into the area called the tribulation period. The rapture is gonna take place before it actually happens. But we have no guarantee that America will stay free until the rapture. I pray that it does, but we have no guarantee. We’re living in an exciting world and yesterday all it was talking about. And surely if you listen to any of the news, what is happening around the world?

This was in just the paper yesterday. It says, we’ve learned a lot in the aftermath of those attacks from the Pentagon and the World Trade Center. Some of it, the hard way. So has the rest of the world. Spain has been hit by a murderous pre-election attack on its rail system. And Spain yielded. They compromised. They yielded to terrorism. They listened to blackmail. The terrorists are blackmailers. They’re forcing people to do what they want done. Because see, they’re willing to die for what they believe.

Because see, they get 70 burdens when they die. You don’t get one. So therefore, they have a great motivation. Here it says, a bomb in Indonesia, night club killed more than 200 innocent people, many of them tourists from Australia. Why? Because they had some of their people there in Iraq. They were one of our coalition partners. Russia has suffered a series of terror attacks, the most recently a hideously cold-blooded power to get salt on an elementary school that has shook that nation’s soul as September 11 shook ours.

Saudi Arabia, the home of 15 of a 19 hijacker who attacked September 11, has also suffered repeated attacks. As many have pointed out, this is not a war on terror. Terror is only a tactic. We can and must take steps to counter that tactic, making terror more difficult to carry out. We’ve had some success in doing so. But the core challenge is to attack and eliminate those who employed the tactics of terror. And in each of these atrocities listed above, the perpetrators have been members of a bizarre, cultish strain of Islamic fundamentalism.

It’s only a strain of the Islamic fundamentalism. I differ with their characterization these terrorists have not hijacked a religion they have not hijacked a religion I wrote this down Mohammed the founder of the religion of Islam was a terrorist He was a warmongrel himself. I’ve read his story. I’ve read the Koran every word of it He was a tears and the Koran was his war manual to convince his followers that murder was justified in the eyes of His man-made God Allah and if he is a tears and he wrote a war manual this Koran is a is a weapon of mass destruction.

And where is this Quran found today? The weapon of mass destruction is already in every nation under the Sun. The Quran was not believed. None of this would be taken place. It’s because they believe a lie of a man in 780 who wrote most of the Quran. It is a weapon of mass destruction because a person that believed the Quran is not going to believe the truth. Now I’m not saying that we shouldn’t win them try to get them to trust Christ to save it because I believe that’s their only hope that they are in darkness.

They believe a lie and all these things that are happening is not because they are an extremist group. Have you noticed that wherever the Muslims are all over the world, they will do what they’re doing right now. They don’t have to have a leader. It’s the Quran is their leader. It’s not Osama bin Laden and it’s not Saddam Hussein. It’s every person who believes, truly believes the Quran. They are peaceful until they can control and they will intimidate until they conquer.

The reason for all this stuff over in Chitna is for the Sub-Aruzim their Muslims that want their own nation. How do you think they got all these other nations of about 60 nations that they’ve taken over so far? What do you think is happening in Sudan? One million have left their homes. Remember two years ago I told you that I was over in Egypt and there’s all these here, Ethiopian’s, and these Sudanese that they come across the border up into Egypt, fleeing for their lives?

And the reason is because the Koran is their justification. It doesn’t bother them to do what they’re doing because they believe that this order is God. Mohamad is His prophet and the Quran is the Word. And what they have done, they will do. And the only way to stop it, I don’t believe the Quran ought to be allowed in America. It is a book on how to overthrow our government and take away our freedom. And wherever they are, it doesn’t matter.

They’re doing this to every nation. And the Bible says that in the end time disrupt the whole world and everybody, all nations of the world are afraid today of Muslim terrorists. Yes or no? And they don’t even have to have a leader because it can happen in any moment, at any time, because of a person that believes in Quran. And this is what God wants them to do and they’re going to do it. Let me read this to you.

No one can declare that something is true Islam and something else isn’t and have his decision accepted by the Islamic world. Therefore it is not enough for Gullyanit and others to tell Americans that terrorists don’t represent true Islam. True moderate Muslims need to convince other Muslims that the terrorists are heretics, but instead the radicals wear the mantle of Islamic purity virtually unchallenged. Why don’t these nations come out against all this stuff? They are afraid of the ones that are in their own nation, uprising against themselves.

And even if they try to help America or help us over in Iraq or in Afghanistan. They turn on the very people who have anything to do with Israel or America. See, they’re willing to die for what they believe. Are we willing to die for what we believe? It was on the news last night, box news, and they’re talking about how they were justified in killing all those babies, all those children. Because if all of this is okay, it’s okay.

All I said is not it’s not not Okay, well what did all I say? Well, if all of this is okay, it’s okay. We’ll answer the question. I wanted to hit the TV If Islamic teachings really sanctioned violence against unbelievers that needs to be addressed by all Muslims and non-Muslims who claim to oppose terrorist activity only that will lead to concrete measure to deal with the situation You either got to defend yourself against the teaching but listen What is the danger in America?

So we can fight it 3,000 miles, 8,000 miles anywhere else in any other country, as long as they don’t come in our shore. But they have brought in the teaching that produced the terrorist. The teaching is already in America. I read this. This is in America. This is not over in some other country. This is right here in America. U.S. Muslims stress the importance of the vote. Do you believe right off the bat that Muslims before Israel or against Israel?

They are against Israel. What is Israel done to the Muslims in America? Nothing. It is they have a Koran that says that you have to kill the Jew. You must kill Christians. And anybody who is at infidel, that means if you’re not a Muslim, that’s the religion of these. That’s not a God-honoring religion. That’s not a wonderful belief system. No, it’s wicked. It’s a lie. That’s nothing to do with God. So you’re attacking other people’s religion. That’s not a religion of honoring.

Let me read this to you. Rosemont, Illinois, America’s Muslims open their largest annual gathering Friday emphasizing the importance of voting as the Muslim community struggles for political recognition. More than 30,000 people were expected to attend the three-day meeting organized by the Islamic Society of North America. The whole two registration booths will be set up and American Muslims who have been elected to public office will discuss their chemobut you think that a Muslim politician running for office and let’s say we get a whole bunch of men are congress do you believe those muslims gonna try to protect our country or turn us into a muslim country do you think there are laws that become power into their muslim belief and detrimental to the christian belief there won’t be many pictures that will tell you what i’m telling you right now and you’re not going to hear all this on the news

they said we are this nation This is the chairman of the Council of Islamic Organization of Greater Chicago. We are this nation. The conference is the third for the Islamic society since the September 11th, 2001 terrorist attacks. And it says, presentations will be made on defending Islam against prejudice, against ties with leaders of other faith, and preserve Muslim civil rights during the domestic war on terrorism. Then another statement. and urges U.S. Muslims to build relations with other face as a model of tolerance for fellow Muslims overseas.

That sounds great. We want to show you how wonderful and peaceful we are. As an example of those people over there and how they can get along. But why are they doing that now? Is it because they want me to accept their belief or is it because they want to accept my belief? Which way do you think it is? They want me to accept their belief as okay. It is not okay. We’re not in the same business. What I teach and what they teach is not the same.

Even the Bible is true and Christ says, I am the way, the truth and the light. No man comes in the Father except through Christ or it’s a lie. And Christ made this statement over in the book of Matthew in chapter 23. He says to those Pharisees, he He says, you hypocrites, you blind leaders of the blind. He says you’ll cross heaven and earth in order to take and make one proselyte and make him twofold a child of hell.

In other words, you ain’t going. And you’re teaching something that keeps them from going. This is what Christ said. He says they’re liars. He says they’re hypocrites. He says you’re blind. He says you’re full. Christ said that. He also makes the statement Muslims have sizable populations in swing states such as Ohio, Michigan, and Florida and hope this will help them gain visibility in the tight presidential race. Do you think they’re here to affect our politics? Yes they are. They say so.

They’re rallying. And whenever they find out that they can terrorize America, they’re going to terrorize America. I’m making this up. I’m just trying to inform you. Listen, the Moscow as a collection of rag-tacks separatists fighting for independence. They’re fighting for their independence. No, they’re trying to make it a Muslim state, what they’re after. This is even Russia was trying to stop them from doing that. But this is what’s coming. And it says, but the armed gang that brought deadly havoc to hundreds of men, women and school children in the southern Russian city of Velslin, earlier this month, demonstrated that the Czech movement has shifted from an open rebellion to shadowy terrorism that targets innocent.

We need to stop talking about them as freedom fighters and independence and terrorists. Muslims. That’s all. They believe the Quran. They’re not the extremists. They’re the norm. And those that are quiet have to be quiet or they will kill him, but they have to abide their time. And when they can, they’re going to do the damage. Checkedins are Muslims and ethnically distinct from Russians. There’s a difference. Yes, it’s a religion against religions. All wars are religious wars. All wars are religious wars and it’s going to get worse and worse and worse.

But I think that we need to understand the Quran itself is direct and a mass destruction. Everywhere it’s gone it has destroyed the individual. It destroys the family it destroys the nation. They don’t have the freedom. Some don’t even understand what the Koran teaches. Now having said all that I don’t want you all to think that I’m a man of hate. I believe that God loves every Muslim. God loves everybody. God loves the homosexual. God loves every person regardless of the sin.

God loves them. Now when I’m talking to an individual one-on-one I’m gonna do everything I possibly can to get that person to trust Christ’s Savior. But That’s because I’m a citizen of heaven as a Christian. This is what I do. As a citizen of this country, then I believe our country has a responsibility and I have responsibilities as an American. But as an individual, I want them to know, look God loves you. God hates your sin. And God says to pay for this sins, eternal separation from God in a place called hell.

And to go to heaven, we have to be perfect because righteous is God and nobody’s perfect. Nobody’s righteous. We’re all sinners. So Jesus Christ came into this world because He loves us, every person. H.R. sin. He called us, separated from us. So Christ took the sin, paid for them, the cross came back from the dead. Said, it will believe He did it for us. He put that payment to our account and we get to go to heaven. Oh, Christ, you’re pushing me.
