The Word of God about the sign of the Son of ManBilly Dean
„You are My sign for those on the earth and for those in heaven, the sign before My com-ing, the sign of the Son of Man, and I carry you with the cross into your little hand when I carry you as My sign over the earth.”
What has been God's desire from the moment He created us? Did you know that desire has not changed? The coming of Christ to this earth has been a matter of much study yet many fail to grasp the reason for Christ's coming. Christ did not come that we could merely be forgiven; Christ came so we could be restored. God created us for His glory and through the plan of redemption He intends to carry out the original plan.

The plan of redemption takes on new heights in this bible based presentation.
A study on Revelation 11:1-8. The presenter identifies the two witnesses, the bottomless pit power, and discusses why this history is important and how it relates to present-day world crises.
In recent times many have laid claim to the title of being a prophet. This claim requires a look into scripture to reveal whether this is true or not. This presentation seeks to look at several tests that should be applied to claimants of the gift of prophecy and the tests as applied to an individual who actually passed all of them.

A375 Example Taste the taste of the Lord, the taste of the Lord The taste of...franktsao4
It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375
The Hope of Salvation - Jude 1:24-25 - MessageCole Hartman
Jude gives us hope at the end of a dark letter. In a dark world like today, we need the light of Christ to shine brighter and brighter. Jude shows us where to fix our focus so we can be filled with God's goodness and glory. Join us to explore this incredible passage.
In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.
Hajj and umrah notes short procedure with important duas and translation
What the bible says concerning angels
1. A.) Don’t listen to those who tell you to observe angels:
- (Col 2:18) Letno man beguile youof yourrewardina voluntaryhumilityandworshippingof
angels,intrudingintothose thingswhichhe hathnotseen,vainlypuffedupbyhisfleshly
mind,
- (Col 2:19) Andnot holdingthe Head,fromwhichall the bodybyjointsandbandshaving
nourishmentministered,andknittogether,increasethwiththe increase of God.
B.) The angels of the LORD don’t want you to worship them. They want you to worship God.
- (Rev22:8) AndI Johnsaw these things,andheardthem.AndwhenIhadheard andseen,I
fell downto worshipbefore the feetofthe angel which shewedme these things.
- (Rev22:9) Thensaith he unto me,See thou do it not: forI am thy fellowservant,andof thy
brethrenthe prophets,andof themwhichkeepthe sayingsof thisbook: worshipGod.
The angel tells John not to worship him. why? because the angel says he is a fellowservant,
in other words his equal. he tells him to worship God.
The same thing happens when the angel of the LORD appears to Manoah.
- (Judg13:8) ThenManoah intreatedthe LORD,and said,Omy Lord, letthe man of God
whichthoudidstsendcome againunto us,and teachus what we shall dountothe childthat
shall be born.
- (Judg13:9) AndGod hearkenedtothe voice of Manoah;and the angel of God came again
untothe womanas she sat inthe field:butManoah herhusband wasnot withher.
- (Judg13:10) Andthe woman made haste,andran, and shewedherhusband,andsaidunto
him,Behold,the manhathappeareduntome,that came unto me the otherday.
- (Judg13:11) AndManoah arose,andwentafterhiswife,andcame to the man, and said
untohim,[Art] thouthe manthat spakestuntothe woman?Andhe said,I am.
- (Judg13:12) AndManoah said,Now letthywordscome to pass.How shall we orderthe
child,andhow shall we do untohim?
- (Judg13:13) Andthe angel of the LORD saidunto Manoah, Of all that I saidunto the woman
letherbeware.
- (Judg13:14) She may not eatof anythingthat comethof the vine,neitherletherdrinkwine
or strong drink,noreat anyuncleanthing:all thatI commandedherletherobserve.
- (Judg13:15) And Manoah said unto the angel of the LORD, I pray thee,letus detainthee,
until we shall have made ready a kidfor thee.
- (Judg13:16) And the angel of the LORD said unto Manoah, Though thou detainme, I will
not eat of thy bread: and ifthou wilt offera burnt offering,thoumust offerit unto the
LORD. For Manoah knewnotthat he was an angel of the LORD.
- (Judg13:17) And Manoah said unto the angel of the LORD, Whatis thy name,that when
thy sayings come to pass we may do thee honour?
- (Judg13:18) And the angel of the LORD said unto him,Why askestthou thus after my
name, seeingitis secret?
- (Judg13:19) So Manoah tooka kidwitha meatoffering,andofferedituponarock untothe
LORD: and the angel didwondrously;andManoahand hiswife lookedon.
- (Judg13:20) For it came to pass,whenthe flame wentuptowardheavenfromoff the altar,
that the angel of the LORD ascendedinthe flame of the altar.AndManoah and hiswife
lookedonit,and fell ontheirfaces tothe ground.
- (Judg13:21) But the angel of the LORD didno more appearto Manoah and to hiswife.Then
Manoah knewthathe wasan angel of the LORD.
2. C.) The duty of an angel of the LORD is to serve God. They obey God. In the book of
Revelation, they serve as scribes.
- (Rev2:1) Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write;These thingssaithhe that holdeth
the sevenstarsinhis righthand,whowalkethinthe midstof the sevengoldencandlesticks;
- (Rev2:8) And untothe angel of the church inSmyrna write; These thingssaiththe firstand
the last,whichwas dead,andis alive;

- (Rev2:18) Andunto the angel of the church in Thyatira write;These thingssaiththe Sonof
God, whohath hiseyeslike untoaflame of fire,andhisfeetare like fine brass;
- (Rev3:1) Andunto the angel of the church in Sardis write;These thingssaithhe that hath
the sevenSpiritsof God,andthe sevenstars;I know thyworks,that thouhast a name that
thoulivest,andart dead.
- (Rev3:7) Andto the angel of the church inPhiladelphia write;These thingssaithhe thatis

and shutteth,andnoman openeth;
- (Rev3:14) Andunto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write;These thingssaiththe

3. Revelation 2:1
"Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write; These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in
his right hand who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks."
“saithhe thatholdeththe sevenstarsinhisrighthand” compare thisto Revelation1:13-16.
“Andin the midstof the sevencandlesticksone like untothe Son of man, clotheswitha garmentdown
to the foot,and girtabout the paps witha goldengirdle.”
“His headand hishairswere white like wool,aswhite assnow;andhiseyeswere asa flame of fire;”
“Andhis feetlike untofinebrass,asif theyburnedina furnace;and hisvoice asthe soundof many
waters.”
“And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouthwenta sharptwoedgedsword:and
hiscountenance wasas the sunshinethinhisstrength.”
The one whohas the sevenstarsinhisright handiscalledthe Son of man,notice whothe Sonof manis.
Mathew8:19 & 20
“Anda certainscribe saiduntohim,Master,I will follow theewithersoeverthougoest.”
“AndJesussaiduntohim,The foxeshave holes,andthe birdsof the air have nests;butthe Sonof man
hath notwhere to layhishead.”
Luke 9:57 & 58
“Andit came to pass,that,as the wentinthe way,a certainman saidunto him, Lord,I will follow thee
whithersoeverthougoest.”
“AndJesussaiduntohim,Foxeshave holes,andbirdsof the air have nests;but the Son of man hath not
where tolay hishead.”
Jesus’sresponse toaman whosayshe will follow himanywhere isawarning.He tellsthe manthat birds
and foxeshave homes,butJesuscallshimself the Sonof maninboth accountsof thisevent.
Revelation 2:8
"And unto the angel of the church in Smyrna write; These things saith the first and the last,
which was dead, and is alive;"
“these saith the firstand the last,which was dead, and is alive”compared to Revelation 1:13-18.
4. “Andin the midstof the sevencandlesticksone like untothe Sonof man,clotheswithagarmentdown
to the foot,and girtabout the paps witha goldengirdle.”
“His headand hishairswere white like wool,aswhite assnow;andhiseyeswere asa flame of fire;”
“Andhis feetlike untofinebrass,asif theyburnedina furnace;and hisvoice asthe soundof many
waters.”
“Andhe hadin hisrighthand sevenstars: andoutof hismouthwenta sharp twoedgedsword:andhis
countenance wasas the sunshinethinhisstrength.”
“AndwhenI sawhim,I fell athis feetasdead.Andhe laidhisrighthand uponme,sayinguntome,Fear
not; I am the first and the last:”
“I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore,Amen;andhave the
keysof hell anddeath.”
Who lived and died, and lives for evermore? Jesus.
1 Corinthians 15:20-27
“But Now is Christrisen fromthe dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.”
“For sinceby man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead,”
“For as in Adam all die,even so in Christshall all bemade alive.”
“But every man in his own order: Christthe firstfruits;afterward they that are Christ’s athis coming.”
“Then cometh the end, when he shall haveput down all ruleand all authority and power.”
“For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet.”
“The lastenemy that shall bedestroyed is death.”
“For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things areputunder him, itis manifestthat he is
excepted which did put all things under him.”
When Stephen was being stoned to death, he sawJesus (God the Son) on the righthand of God (God the father).
Acts 7:55-60
“But he being filled with the Holy Ghost, looked up steadfastly into heaven, and sawthe glory of God, and Jesus
standingon the righthand of God,”
“And said,Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standingon the righthand of God”
“Then they cried out with a loud voice, and stoped their ears, and ran upon him with one accord,”
“And casthim out of the city,and stoned him: and the witnesses laid down their clothes at a young man’s feet,
whose name was Saul.”
“And they stoned Stephen, callingupon God, and saying,Lord Jesus,receive my spirit.”
5. “And he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge, And when he had said
this,he fell asleep.”
Revelation 2:12
"And to the angel to the church in Pergamos write; These things saith he which hath the
sharp sword with two edges;"
“saith he which hath the sharp sword with two edges” compared to Revelation 1:13-16.
“Andin the midstof the sevencandlesticksone like untothe Son of man, clotheswithagarmentdownto
the foot,and girtabout the paps witha goldengirdle.”
“His headand hishairswere white like wool,aswhite assnow;andhiseyeswere asa flame of fire;”
“Andhis feetlike untofinebrass,asif theyburnedina furnace;and hisvoice asthe soundof many
waters.”
“And he had in his righthand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his
countenance wasas the sunshinethinhisstrength.”
In chapter1 of revelationwe are givenadetail of the twoedgedsword,itcomesoutof hismouth.Well,
howcan thisbe?
Let’sbackupto two scriptures.
Hebrews4:12 & 13
“For the word of God is quick,andpowerful,andsharperthananytwoedgedsword,piercingevento
the dividingasunderof soul andspirit,andof the jointsandmarrow,and isa discernerof the thoughts
and intentsof the heart.”
“Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight:but all things arenaked and opened unto the eyes of
whom we have to do.”
John 1:1-3 & 14
“In the beginningwas the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.”
“The same was in the beginningwith God.”
“All things were made by him: and without him was not any thing made that was made.”
“And the Word was made flesh,and dwelt among us,(and we beheld his glory,the glory as of the only begotten of
the Father,) full of grace and truth.”
Before Jesus came to earth in a form of a man, he was the literal words.Jesus was in the beginning with God,
because he is God. Every “thus saith the LORD” is Jesus before he came to earth. All the words in your Bibleis the
Word of God. The reason a Bibleis referred to as a double edged sword is becausenot only does the Biblemake a
6. lostperson feel guilty for sin,but itmakes a Christian feel guilty as well.No one is immune to the POWER of the
WORD OF GOD. It even knows our thoughts and our intentions when we read it. IT will teach you, startyour day
with the WORD OF GOD.
Revelation 2:18
"And unto the angel of the church in Thyatira write; These things saith the Son of God, who hath
eyes like unto a flame of fire, and his feet are like fine brass;"
Compare “saith the Son of God, who hath eyes likeunto a flame of fire, and his feet arelikefine brass” to
Revelation 1:13-15.
“And in the midstof the seven candlesticksonelikeunto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot,
and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.”
“His head and his hairswere white likewool,as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;”
“And his feet like unto finebrass,as If they burned in a furnace; and his voiceas the sound of many
waters.”
Jesus is the Son of God, although many mistakenly give all the creditto mary. She actually had NOTHING to do with
the conception of Christ,all shedid was conceiveJesus. The angel told her Jesus would be called THE SON OF GOD,
not the son of mary.
Luke 1:30-35
“And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hastfound favour with God.”
“And, behold, thou shaltconceivein thy womb, and bringforth a son, and shaltcall hisnameJESUS.”
“He shall begreat, and shall becalled the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall giveunto him the throne of
his father David;”
“And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall beno end.”
“Then said Mary unto the angel,How shall this be,seeing I know not a man?”
“And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall comeupon thee, and the power of the Highest
shall overshadowthee: therefore also that holy thing which shall beborn of thee shall becalled the Son of God.”
Jesus is in the lineageof David,but Jesus doesn’t give the honor to David.It all goes back to God, The honour and
glory is God’s.
Luke 20:41-44
“And he said unto them, How say they that Christis David’s son?”
“And David himself saith in the book of Psalms,The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my righthand,”
“Till I make thine enemies thy footstool.”
“David therefore calleth himLord, how is he then his son?”
7. ISAIAH 42:8 SAYS
“I AM THE LORD: THAT IS MY NAME: AND MY GLORY WILL I NOT GIVE TO ANOTHER, NEITHER MY PRAISE TO
GRAVEN IMAGES.”
JOHN 4:24 SAYS
“GOD IS A SPIRIT: AND THEY THAT WORSHIP HIM MUST WORSHIP HIM IN SPIRITAND IN TRUTH.”
- So far:
1.) Don’t worship angels
2.) Don’t give honour to mary
3.) Don’t give honour to david
4.) ONLY WORSHIP GOD IN SPIRITAND IN TRUTH
5.) Don’t try to worship himthrough a man or a figurine of any kind

house.”
“Andtheyshall hangupon himall the gloryof hisfather’shouse,the offspringandthe issue,all

“In that day,saiththe LORD of hosts,shall the nail thatis fastenedinthe sure place be removed

spokenit.”
