He begins off with rehashing on the measuring of the temple and refers to Rev 11:1 and Ezekiel 40. These have already been gone over on what he is trying to explain in the other sermons. The outer court, the inner court and examining all the filthiness within the inner court - the temple.
The following may not be exactly verbatim, but it’s somewhat close. Lance’s words are in regular type and or parentheses (in blue) and all scriptures are in italics - gray color. Scriptures are copied from the KJV.
(start)
Let’s do as we are commanded and lets measure the “them” that worship therein. And in doing that lets go once again to the beginning, to the book of Genesis, where the basics of Christianity 101 are found written. And lets begin with a simple question … that everyone should be able to answer. The question is: What was the commandment of God given to Adam from the beginning? The violation of which would cause him to surely die.
Genesis 2:15 And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.
Adam was given charge over the garden of God even the temple duty if you will. To dress it and to keep it. Meaning to build an hedge about it.
Verse 16: And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:
But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, (Now you all know who that is? Right? It was a tree. What is a tree symbolic of? It’s symbolic of a man. And this man was a biblical scholar who sat in the midst of the garden.. and the instruction is…) thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
Of course then Adam was given a woman, a wife to be an helpmeet unto him. And they too were now in the garden and they too knew the commandment of God that they should not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. For in the day they eat thereof they shall surely die.
Now lets learn a little something about satan. About this one who was in the midst.
Chapter 3 verse 1: The book of the beginning - Genesis:
Now the serpent was more subtil (more cunning) than any beast of the field (any living creature) which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, (this is the serpent talking now to Eve.) Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? ( Has God said that? You shall not eat of every tree of the garden? Again, the first thing we are told about this serpent is that he is more subtle than any living being God had ever made. Now, take note that satan did not appear to Eve in the garden to do a dog and pony show, snap your fingers, call lightening down from the sky show for her. Come on! And maybe by the time we are finished with this broadcast you’ll begin to understand, you know what? He can not even do that!
And why is that? Well, dear ones, have you not read, he is just a man. Can you snap your fingers and call lightening down from the sky? No, and neither can he. What satan did do from within the midst of the garden was subtlety convince her of something concerning eternal life Pay attention real close! Wake up! Open your eyes! )
Gen 3:2 And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:
But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, (Where? Outside the garden? No, in the midst of the garden.) God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.
Now, why should Eve not touch this one? I’ll tell you why, because he is a dead man, He’s unclean, unholy, profane. And ya know, you find it written in the law. You find it written in Leviticus Chapter 5 verse 2 for example too.
Lev 5:2 Or if a soul touch any unclean thing, whether it be a carcase of an unclean beast, or a carcase of unclean cattle, or the carcase of unclean creeping things, and if it be hidden from him; he also shall be unclean, and (What?!) guilty.
Now here’s another question. What was the big lie that satan told to Eve? This is extremely important! The big lie that satan told her was that she would not surely die.
Gen 3:4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
Now, is that not the desire of every Christian? Does not it stroke and massage the mind to be told that: “You be one of Gods elect.” “You know, ah.. you don’t find satan tempting“ …. and you’ve always been told from the beginning that’s there’s more to Gods Word.
Have you been told you cannot be deceived? Because you’re rich in knowledge and wisdom and therefore wiser than the ole serpent? Dear ones let me tell you something.. this is the ultimate rapture theory. And it is taught more among this group of brethren than in any other church. And you know, because it is taught in the temple that is why we see it manifest in the world. That which we accuse our brothers and sisters of.
Ya know, you’ve been told your special and you’re one of Gods elect and that if you’re wise enough to know six comes before seven.. and that antichrist appears before the true messiah, then that’s you‘re documentation right there.
Have you been told that you cannot commit the unpardonable sin? Because why? Because satan is not here yet? So you’ve been told. And besides only those who are delivered up can commit it by refusing the Holy Spirit to speak through them at that time. Wow! Where is that written? We surely have been told that we shall not surely die. Oh, even that we are predestined.
Again, we’ve all had this vision in our mind. This vision that when the Klingon spaceship drops off this beautiful angelic supernatural cherub in Jerusalem who will perform magic tricks in the sight of men.. then all we need do is pinch our little ole flesh hard enough to draw blood and we’ll be home free.
Our salvation is made sure upon the appearance of the moon god himself. Wow! That shouldn’t offend you, that ought to make you sick to your stomach.
And actually with that scenerio.. Hey! You don’t need Christ at all! Do you? Just wait for satan and by knowing him and by knowing who he is you shall not surely die.
Geneis 3:5
This is the serpent speaking:
Gen 3:5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
Now dear ones this constitutes the actual deception of what the mark of the beast really is. You see the mark of the beast is deception alright. The mark of the beast is to believe satans lie that you shall not surely die, and then go about eating from that tree.. Trees are symbolic of what? Superman? No, men. A man, a man tree.
And how is it that the statement “you shall not surely die” is made believable unto you? Well its made believable the exact same way it was to Eve. You study, you eat the fruit thereof with this great scholar of Gods Word and your eyes will become open to the truth and you’ll become wise and knowledgeable And again, when ole slew foot is dropped off in Jerusalem to perform his magic Barnum and Bailey show, only you and all the others that have eaten from this tree will know that this is satan, while the ignorant and the unwise will surely believe he is Christ.
Do you see how your salvation hinges upon the appearance of the false messaiah? My! What power we have ascribed to this one satan. How we have aided in the exultation of the power of this one.
Have you not read in Isaiah 14? Have you not read in Revelation 13:18? … that he is just a man. Well talk more on this later.
But first let’s continue in Genesis and see what was so appealing to Eve about this man tree This tree filled with such apparent knowledge and wisdom concerning Gods Word.
Gen 3:6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, (Hey! Here’s a scholarly man from God who is able to prepare all my meals from the table of the Lord for me.) and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree (the tree is what? It is a man.) to be desired to make one wise, (yeah, just listen to the wisdom, dear ones) she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
Eve saw that the tree, the man in the midst of the garden, who first freely gave her his mark of the beast schpeel, informing her that only those who did not have all this rich wisdom and knowledge that would seal her, would surely die. But she wouldn’t, she wouldn’t die. So she quickly realized that if she ate at his table and learned the scriptures from this great scholar that she would become wise enough to recognize the ole serpent, which her brothers and sisters outside the temple won’t be able to do if they don’t get with the program, so to say.
You know something? Some are actually going to be very disappointed that they are not going to see this dog and pony magic show, because they have waited so long to see it.
Meanwhile they sit in front of a tree every day and eat everything, as in swallow hook line and sinker all that he gives them and puts on a table before them. Yeah they truly believe that they got themselves a man from the Lord. Even his opinions become to them doctrine And the vision that is portrayed in their mind of the power of satan leaves them awestruck and focused on the moon.
Hey, ya know, this very day there is a revisiting of the Decemeber 26th earthquake in the news. Found it on The Drudge Report twice. You know the one that happened in the sea in the land of the moon worshippers. Hmm.
Tell you what, lets take a little closer look at the method of operation of this man who so elevates himself and is made great by the waters. How? by the waters. What is waters symbolic of? People.
Ezekiel Chapter 28 Verse 1
The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,
Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyrus, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thine heart is lifted up, and thou hast said, I am a God, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet thou art a man, and not God, though thou set thine heart as the heart of God: (Now, who you suppose to get your fruit from? From the tree of life. From the Word of God. Now who tells you to listen to him? To listen to what he teaches. Get your fruit from him. Yeah.)
Behold, thou art wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that they can hide from thee: (Dear ones you think you can’t be had? You think you can‘t be deceived by the ole serpent? By this subtle one? Consider that you already have been. Consider that the great apostasy has already taken place. Where does he come? He comes and sits in the midst of the temple. And he makes merchandise and gets rich, from the children of God. Listen, Ezekiel 28:4 These aren’t my words..)
With thy wisdom and with thine understanding thou hast gotten thee riches, and hast gotten gold and silver into thy treasures: (That’s right, with the exception of freely giving you the mark of the beast, he sells you his supposedly rich wisdom and understanding .Hey! I know first hand. This man, I know, because I was on that very road to riches.)
Verse 5: By thy great wisdom and by thy traffick hast thou increased thy riches, and thine heart is lifted up because of thy riches:
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thou hast set thine heart as the heart of God; (Yeah, well his heart is not as the heart of God. Get a clue.)
Behold, (Behold means pay attention) therefore I will bring strangers upon thee, (those who are not married to him, if you will) the terrible of the nations: (The awesome. These are Gods people) and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of thy wisdom, and they shall defile thy brightness. (What do you think is happening right now, dear ones? Again, do you know who these terrible or these awesome ones are? They’re the mighty army of God. You can read about them in Joel Chapter 3. Satan has already had his reign. Hmm, oh, you are expecting it to be outside the temple again.. We opened this with the
instruction of Revelation 11:1. This happens in the temple.)
Eze 28:8 They shall bring thee down to the pit, and thou shalt die the deaths of them that are slain in the midst of the seas. (How’s he gonna die? Everyone who follows him. Hey. We’ll visit that again shortly.)
Eze 28:9 Wilt thou yet say before him that slayeth thee, I am God? but thou shalt be a man, and no God, in the hand of him that slayeth thee. (Yeah, he’s just a man…)
