Who Exactly were the 3000 gathered on the Day of Pentecost? 6/1/2026 - The Feast of Pentecost Transcript: So, we have a very carnal problem in God's church that I want to talk about. Yes, sir. We love to look back in awe and wonder of a past day without ever seeing the true awe and wonder of our own day. Come on. Come on. That's a disease. Come on. It's a disease. Amen. In the body of Christ. What a wonderful day. Now, yes, we gather today to celebrate the outpouring of the Holy Ghost on the day of Pentecost. But today, but now you can't do that all day. Come on. I'm sorry. But today, Hallelujah. You're going to let me preach today. Amen. That's what happens when you duplicate yourself. Amen. And no day captures our imagination quite like the day of Pentecost, right? The wind, the fire, the power, the speaking in tongues. Amen. Now remember, the tongues they spoke in was not the unknown tongue. The tongues they spoke in on the day of Pentecost was the other tongues, not unknown tongues. Amen. Unknown tongues is a private prayer language between you and Yahweh. It is not for the church. It is not. Amen. Unless it is interpreted. Okay. Thank you, son. And by the way, I cannot go one step further. Hang tight. Uh, I see one of them. Sister Herky, where's your husband? Elder Herky, come up here. Amen. Sister Herky, come up here. Hallelujah. Amen. Normally, Sister Callie, Minister Callie will come to me telling me what folks ain't doing right. Pastor Lord, they No, they they no good. They they they they're not working.

I want to thank you both. You have worked. They have worked tirelessly to feed us from donuts to sandwiches. They fixed all that. I know you had helpers, but you led the team. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. God bless you. Thank you. Thank you for your work. Thank you. Thank you. I'm so grateful for them. Amen. Amen. Amen. Mama, count this. See how much we got. Hey, is that the same? Count that. Where's mama at? She's not here. When she comes in, have her count that so I know what we got. I have no clue. Now, the thing about the day of Pentecost, if we're not careful, we make a great mistake. We turn the move of Yahweh into a museum, a past experience. We look at it all through the word of God. There's a story about a serpent in the wilderness made out of bronze. They polished it and God moved mightily. Amen. Through that bronze serpent, he healed the whole camp of Israel. Amen. But a few generations later, guess what they had done with that bronze serpent. Amen. 2 Kings 18 and4 tells us what they did with it. Read that, Pastor Morgan. 2 Kings 18 and verse4. Amen. And if you'll hang tight, we're going to get this engine crunk here in a minute. Amen. Second Kings 18 and verse4. Amen. He removed the high place who Hezekiah did. Hezekiah came among the house of Israel and removed a false god, the high place. Amen. Read. And broke the images and cut down the groves and broke in pieces the brazen serpent. That was What did he break? What did he What did he break in pieces? The serpent. The br the brazen. That's bronze. Bronze. When was there a bronze serpent? When Moses made it. Amen. It was a move of God. Come on. That had turned into a monument. Wow. Wow. And what did Hezekiah do? He literally broke down a former move of God. Wow. I have come today to destroy the day of Pentecost. Come on. Come on. Come on. I have come to tear down something that the whole church looks back on while missing what God is doing right now. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Come on man of y'all worshiping read what he did. Come on. For unto those days, For unto those days, read, the children of Israel did burn incense to it. Now, what did the children of Israel do to this old move of God? They burned incense. They said, "Wasn't it wonderful what God did back then? Wasn't it powerful? Do you remember what God did on the day of Pentecost?" Come on. Hallelujah. They were burning incense to an old work of Wow. Yes, sir. Amen. Amen. They were turning a work of God into a God. Oh, wow. And I've come to prophesy and declare to the whole world that's hearing me and that will hear this message. I have come to prophesy that the age of Pentecost is a dead day. It is over with. We are entering into tabernacles. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. There's a greater glory upon the house of Israel. Hallelujah. Read. Oh, hallelujah. They burned incense to it. Amen. Verse number four, I believe. Amen. Second Kings. Second Kings 18:4. I'm sorry. I lost the page. You got excited. Amen. I did. And And he called it, what did he call it? Nhushon. He called it Nahushan. Nushon. You know what Nahushan means? Nothing but a piece of brass. Wow. a old thing. What the entire Pentecostal church talks about while ignoring what's happening. Come on. The king Hallelujah. He called it nahushan. Nothing but a piece of brass. Amen. But hundreds of years earlier, it was more than brass. It was the present move of God. Come on. Amen. Now, you're really going to have to wake up to me today. Amen. Because I've come to tell you, I'm not here. I hated to say it. I couldn't say it earlier. But if you think I'm excited about what happened in an upper room, I'm excited about what happened in a conference room in Tennessee. what God is doing in this hour in our day. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Fire. Glory. You may be seated. Hallelujah. Every Christian I know idolizes the day of Pentecost. Amen. Come on. While completely ignoring the day of tabernacles. That's right. Say it, Apostle. We're in a new age. We're in a new day. We're in a new move. It's bigger than Pentecost. It's better than Pentecost. It's brighter than Pentecost. Don't you get so caught up in Pentecostalism that you don't see tabernacleism. Say it. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Now, I just want to teach today. I just want to teach a little bit. Amen. That's precisely what the religious world has done with the day of Pentecost. Now, by the way, I'm grateful for the day of Pentecost. What happened there changed the world. Amen. But what's happening here, that's right, is going to change the galaxy. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. And if you're not careful, you won't see what's happening here by remembering Pentecost. Come on. Amen. Say it. Amen. Your focus is off. Oh, if I could have been there on the day of Pentecost. I don't want to be there for that day. I was born for this day. I want to make sure that what happens in this day, I don't miss it by looking back on a day that's over with. You know, a lot of people when they come to the apostolic assemblies, they're very confused because we say we're not Pentecostal, right? But we sure act like Come on. We're Pentecostal. I mean, we're running over each other, swinging from chandeliers, rolling in the floor. Come on, breathe. We sure look like Pentecostals and act like Pentecostals, but what they don't understand. All we have done is reach back and grabbed a hold of what God is building. And then we were adding unto what we already have. We're not stuck there. We took it and we're moving on. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Now we have Nahushan, nahan, that bronze snake. And if we're not careful, we will bow down to the age of Pentecost while missing the tabernacle age. Amen. There were two kings I want to talk to you about real quickly in the Bible. One's name was Saul. Yes, sir. Now Saul was raised up by God. Yes, sir. He was He told Samson where to find him. Yes. He told Samson, "Obey me, and I want you to raise up a king." Now, this was not y'all's first will, but it was his permissible will. Said, "I want you to raise up a king named Saul. Go anoint him and bless him." Amen. And he is the government of Israel. That's right. Now, what's funny, uh, Elder Sears, is that Saul was ordained on the day Pentecost. of Pentecost. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Wow. It was at the beginning or the end of the spring harvest, this day when he was ordained king in Israel. Amen. So, what does that tell me? that Saul represents the Pentecostal era age era. Yes, sir. Now, pastor, how can you be so sure? I'll show you why. Because King Saul was pleasing unto Yahweh. For many. Oh, I see where he's going. Come on. Come on. King Saul did what was right in the sight of Yahweh for a long time. In other words, his movement, his Pentecostal era lasted a long time. Amen. Amen. But Yahweh never had anybody but David in mind. Hallelujah. Woo! Hallelujah. Tabernacles. Woo! Saul was the stop gap. Come on. Necessary. Necessary, but not the final king. Amen. Amen. So, the little boy named David was ordained by the prophet. Oh. On the first day of tabernacles. Hallelujah. Oh yes. Come on. Just read your Bible. You'll find out they brought him down to the prophet and it was the first day of the feast of heaven. Hallelujah. Why? Because the dividic anointing is not a Pentecostal anointing. It is a tabernacle anointing, a maturity anointing. Woo. King Saul was anointed for his day. Yes, sir. But just like the Pentecostal movement, he began to compromise and he began to do things that was untowards. And the Bible said God wasn't concerned cuz he'd already raised a little boy that was insignificant in the world's eyes. He was small. He was runny. He only had a few hundred people. There wasn't much to him. But God was reserving him to take over from Saul. Hallelujah. Uh and now we understand if you've read my book on David that there was a time period from when he was given the mandate. Amen. Until he was given the crown. Amen. You and I have been given a mandate. Yes, sir. While we wait for a crown. But I want to tell you something. You sons of light. It is time for you to desire something greater than the day of Pentecost. Hallelujah. You need that tabernacle glory. Hallelujah. That tabernacle anointing, that tabernacle vision, that millennial rain vision. Hallelujah. Oh, the Saul generation, the Pentecostals, Saul only dreamed of maintaining Israel. Wow. He had no divine, no desire to conquer, to bring them. Oh, come on. No desire to add to the kingdom. There was no Jerusalem. Wow. Come on. When he was king. Amen. Why? Because the Jeepusites inhabited Jerusalem. It was a city high on Mount Zion. He had no desire for Mount Zion. He only desired to make heaven his home. Wow. He only desired to maintain what he had. But when David came to the throne, the Bible said he began to conquer the land. He began to take over everything that stood in. And he came to Jerusalem and said, "We can take it." And heal Jerusalem. Hallelujah. That's the difference in a tabernacle mindset. Amen. Hallelujah. The Pentecostal mindset is signs, wonders, and miracles. Now, we love those things, and they are our heritage, but they are not our vision. Amen. Amen. Come on. Amen. The kingdom. Our vision is tabernacles. Let me give you another word for tabernacles. Maturity. Maturity. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. When my wife was preaching on the latter rain yesterday, I wondered how many understood what the latter rain is for maturity. It is not to start the harvest. That's the job of the former rain. Come on. Early in the springtime. Amen. Before summer, those early rain sets the seed. The day of Pentecost set this seed. Yes, sir. Amen. But it's in the end of the springtime when you see all the rain that comes at the end of spring. Do you know why that does that? To produce a mature If they don't get enough rain before the summer scorching, then there will not be a mature harvest. Tabernacle rain is not Pentecostal rain. Tabernacle rain is not trying to bring you a start. Tabernacle rain is bringing you a finishing rain that will bring you into maturity. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Be careful that you're not looking for the early rain. Amen. Because that just sets you in the ground. You know what's the first thing you're supposed to do when you plant a seed? Water it. Water it. Water it. Set it. If you don't, it won't set. If the rain wouldn't have fell at Pentecost, the church wouldn't have been set. That's good. That's good. Hallelujah. But now that the church is set, we got to grow. We've been growing for 2,000 years. And it's now time before the beautiful coming of the Lord to finalize and finish that move of God to perfection and maturity. Hallelujah. So, no, you'll pardon me if I'm not stuck on Pentecost. And we come and you have to change your mindset. We don't come here to celebrate what happened in an upper room. Amen. We come here to anticipate. That's right. what's going to happen in this room, what God is doing in this hour, because the day of Pentecost is a shadow of what's coming. Amen. Yahweh told Moses, read Exodus 16 and 20. Now, we have a long way to go. I've got to try to hurry. Thank you. I've come to get your mind right. Amen. Amen. Do you know the only people I cannot win to this truth is Pentecostals? Come on. No, I'm not being ugly. That's my people. Yes. Do you know why? They've already had a rain and they don't want to let go. They get the rain every time they go to church. They feel good. Holy Ghost moves. People speak in tongues. Do they're happy with their rain. Yep. And the minute you try to tell them that rain's not enough, then they don't want your rain. Amen. But I've come to tell you, the rain of the gifts of the spirit, the rain of all of that wonderful wonders will not keep you in this dark hour that's coming upon the world. Amen. You will have to know the truth and it will set you free to endure what's coming. I'll give you an idea. Every Pentecostal is waiting on the rapture. Come on. Amen. Every one of them. You know why? They're scared to death. They don't have what it takes to endure tribulation. Come on. Come on, Apostle. That's good. You're going to have a heart attack, pastor. I don't believe that. I don't care what you believe. I'll tell you what I know. I grew up hearing the rapture any moment. You know why? That Pentecostal reign ain't enough to get you through the tribulation. You better find the voice of Elijah and watch for that latter rain of truth and teaching. Hallelujah. That will teach you the truth. Woo. I've come to tell every one of you, you sit there and bulk on me like three or four of you is doing right now, but one thing you can't do is deny what I'm teaching. You won't open that book and deny it. There's never been a rapture in God's word. And there never will be one. Ever. Ever. Ever. Come on. That's truth. Preach. Find me a rapture in the Bible and I'll preach it. Come on. Come on. If you want to know what God's going to do tomorrow, go back to the beginning. Look at what he did yesterday. He never changes. The children of Israel when great tribulation fell in Egypt, God didn't rapture them. He gathered them in one place and protected them. Hallelujah. He never changes. Never changes. Let's read Exodus 16:20. Notwithstanding, they hearken not unto Moses. What did Moses tell him? Listen, the mana is going to fall, and do not get a double portion. Do not take more than what you need for your day. That's right. Oh, come on. For your day. I'm going to send you for your day what you need. Amen. But they did not like that idea. Read. Amen. But some of them Uhhuh. left of it until the morning. What did they do? They wanted to get a little extra and carry it over to the tabernacle. Amen. Amen. They wanted to go around and that's why you cannot get people to listen to this message. They're eating mana from another day. Old bread. Come on. Old bread. It's old bread. First time I heard William Brandon preach, that was one of the first things he was preaching on is the word for your day. And I thought, well, the word is the word every day. No, it's not. The word is released in a day what's needed in that day. Hallelujah. Amen. Read. And it bred worms and stank. What did it do? It bred worms and stank. And stank. Amen. Oh, bread. If you want to find a stinking religion, come on. Find one from yesterday. Come on. Come on. Amen. Come on, Apostle. I hope you're hearing me. Oh, I hear it. the stupidest song I've ever heard. And I've sang it a lot of times. If it was good for mom and dad, it's good enough for me. It was good for mom and dad. No, it's good enough for No, no, no. I don't want anything my mama had or my daddy had. I want what my father has today in this hour. I want what he's pouring out right now. Oh, hallelujah. Because the people eating mama's bread refuse to eat the father's bread. Fire. I'm telling you, most of you, your God is your mom and your daddy. Come on, say it. You serve God the way they did. No, that bread stinks. Amen. Come on. Now, it didn't stink yesterday. That's right. Come on. Come on, Sister Pat. That that Baptist bread fed you in your day where you were. But if you went and tried to listen to that today, amen. It would stink. Amen. Why? You've tasted another bread. You've tasted the bread of another day. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. So many people on the day of Pentecost last Sunday, I listened. most of the world celebrated lesson. I listened to sermon after sermon after sermon. All I heard was a memorialization. It was like a funeral service. They were shouting and dancing, but it was over what happened in the upper room. Wow. Looking back across 2,000 years, everyone was remembering a day that came and went and they're still preaching that dead bread. Wow. Come on, Apostle. But that's not why we are here. That's right. We are the sons of light. We are the taught remnant. We do not gather in remembrance. We gather in anticipation. Amen. Amen. We gather together leaning forward. The tabernacles. We honor the first outpouring not as a relic but as a reminder that it was only a shadow of a better day that is still to come. Hallelujah. The tabernacle glory if you ever understand when we're talking about tabernacles remember Yahweh's plan is divided into seven feasts. Amen. Passover is the baby stage. Tabernacles maturity is maturity. So when we talk about tabernacle glory, we're not making up a word. That's right. We're talking about a glory that matures you in your understanding of God. If you're not careful, you'll be dancing and shouting and dumb as a box of rocks. Come on, Apostle. You will be. And what'll happen when trouble comes your way? Because you don't know this message, you won't survive. Come on. Amen. That's right. Amen. Oh, hallelujah. Now, tabernacle, only a remnant with the right mindset will be positioned to receive the next glory when it falls. Amen. Hallelujah. Somebody say, "As it was." As it was, so shall it be. So shall it be. All right. Now, let's go to the book of Acts, chapter 2. All right. Amen. Hallelujah. Now, we're going to start getting into what I wanted to teach today. Amen. Acts chapter 2. Let's go back to the year 35 of the common era. At the feast of Shabowot, today the 50th day, Pentecost, Jerusalem is packed. They tell me, historians, that there was at least a 100,000 people in Jerusalem, that little city of Jerusalem. The streets were flowing. They were swollen with people. The streets were rivers of people and every language under heaven was being spoken in the streets. Yes, sir. Let's read about that. Acts chapter 2. Let's start at verse two and let's see what happened. Well, I tell you what, read verse five first. Amen. And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men out of every nation under heaven. I'd like for you to underline that word devout men. Amen. Listen to me now. There was at Jerusalem Jews that had been scattered in the diaspora all over the world. Yes, sir. They spoke different languages, German, French, whatever. Mes, Persian, and they come to Jerusalem because like you, they're obedient to the command. You never had to guess where they were going to be when it came that specific day. Like nobody in your family should ever have to guess where you're going to be, right? It's just natural. Well, they were all there devout men. What does that mean? Amen. God-fearing. God-fearing. Amen. Everybody in Jerusalem, brother noon, loved God. Come on. Yeah. Now, this is important. Follow this closely. Yes, sir. Everybody in there was no sinners in Jerusalem. We sort of get this mindset that the city is filled with all kind of people. No, no, no, no. Devout men. Amen. Everyone at Jerus and be like this meeting today. There's nobody in this hotel that's not devout. That's our people. We We are studious. The word devout means dedicated. Yes, sir. We're here, right? This is what was in Jerusalem. People just like you. Not sinners. Come on. Not carnal people, not worldly people. You. Amen. And I'm going to dig into this until you finally realize that everybody in Jerusalem, according to the word, there was dwelling at Jerusalem, devout, amen, godfearing, Torah observing, hallelujah, men. Amen. And while they're there, while they're there, verse two, while these devout, God-fearing people are there, something happens. Read. And suddenly, And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind. Uhhuh. And it filled all the house where they were sitting. Read. And there appeared unto them clothe tongues like as of fire, and it set upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost and began to speak with other tongues as the spirit gave them utterance. All right, it draws a crowd. Peter stands up. He's a Galilean fisherman. He's unschooled. He's ordinary. He opens his mouth and here's what he says in verse 41. He begins to hold on. He begins to preach a sermon about Yesua and how he had died on the cross. 41. And he began to preach this sermon and read verse 41. And they that gladly received his word. They that gladly received the word. Those that was more glad than they were to go to lunch to get back in here. Come on, say that. Those that gladly receive the word, read, were baptized. And the same day there were added unto them about 3,000 souls. Not one sinner. Come on. Devout men. Amen. These were God-fearing men. Amen. They were not saved. In other words, they didn't do this to get saved, right? Yes, sir. They did this for a reason. I'm going to teach you about that reason today. This is good. So, here's my question that I'm going to start with today. Here's the question the church has never asked. I've been in church all my life. They've never asked this one question. 100,000 people, earthquake, fire, wind. Amen. People speaking supernaturally in foreign languages. You don't want to miss this part. Yes, sir. And out of 100,000, 97,000 were untouched. Wow. Wow. Wow. Y'all missed it. Everybody just missed that. Out of a 100,000, 97,000 godfearing men were untouched. Wow. That's it. Only a remnant. Wow. 3,000. Wow. That's a small remnant. We sort of think there was all these sinners that got saved. No. Devout men. These were God-fearing, Torah observant, good men. Hallelujah. Amen. They were just like the church that brought you up filled with good men. Amen. Come on. Amen. Hallelujah. How good. We act like on the day of Pentecost, the world was turned upside down. No, it wasn't. It was an utter failure. Come on. Out of out of a 100,000, only 3,000. It was an absolute failure. Wow. Come on. Wow. Did you just say the day of Pentecost was a failure? Absolutely. It should have gotten a 100,000 filled with the Holy Ghost. It should have gotten every man. Everybody should have been filled with the Holy Ghost. Hallelujah. Pastor, the day of Pentecost was a failure. I just said it. If you're looking at it from numbers, right? Come on. And that's how we look at everything. You look at this ministry, you would call it a failure. Come on. Oh, hallelujah. Oh, hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Oh. But what wound up happening out of that 3,000 turned the world upside down. Absolutely. How many people here today have always sort of thought of the day of Pentecost, the whole city of Jerusalem was on fire, right? Amen. Actually, no. 97,000 of them were walking away shaking their hand their hands saying, "What is that? Come on. Who do they think they are? Who do they think they are?" Amen. Apostle, I never saw that until three days ago when I I put a message in the chat group to the elders. I said, "I'm sitting here looking at my Bible thinking, "How did I never see this?" Come on. Amen. That's right. Wow. It's not time. It wasn't time. Amen. It was time for 3,000. For 3,000. That's right. I want you to think about it. Lord, give me. The spirit of Yahweh had just fallen like a hurricane. Right. Right. Tongues of fire dancing on men's heads. Speaking languages supernaturally of other nations. Yes, sir. It was the most spectacular public manifestation of the power. That's why I'm scared of power people. Come on. People looking for power. Amen. Ain't interested in truth. Come on. Come on. Apostle. Amen. Come on. They are bored with truth. Wow. They want power. That's right. And that's why God has shut down and sent a drought to every church in the world in the last 70 years because they love power more than truth. But he said it's time for the return of the reign of truth. Hallelujah. Uh, let's make this simple for you. Let's take a room. We've got probably about a hundred people in here on the stage. 1 2 3 4 5 6. There's 20 on this front row. Out of this whole room, only one row responded to Pentecost. Yes, sir. Amen. Wow. Yeah. Power doesn't win converts. No. It wins spectators. Come on. Come on. Come on. Amen. Come on. Truth wins converts. Hallelujah. Amen. Now, you would think with all this going on, the whole city heard about it. You would think 97,000 more would have come running in under the power of the Holy Ghost. No, sir. Why did the overwhelming majority of believers walk away? They thought they were right. They thought they were right. Amen. Amen. After all, they had the Torah. Amen. Come on. Come on. Come on. Amen. They were walking in truth already. Uhhuh. Like Saul with no expectation. Just like King Saul. But here's something else I want to bring out today. 3000. I never saw it until I saw it. I always thought that these 3,000 that were filled with the Holy Ghost that day that was converted was, you know, just sort of a cross-section of all the hundred,000 that just sort of was maybe passing by and and saw all this stuff going on and heard Peter preach and, you know, just whoever was sort of drifting by. They like a tent revival. They are I'd always sort of thought that the 3,000 were just random people. Come on. I did too. Apostle until I found out who they were. Come on. Teach us. Just wait now. These were not regular folk, right? They were a specific people. Specific. Reverend. They were a listen to this prepared people. Amen. Hallelujah. The day of Pentecost did not take these people by surprise. Amen. They had already been taught to look for it. Wow. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Pastor, how do you know? I'll show you how I know these people. Notice what it said. They that gladly receive what Peter was preaching. How could 3,000 gladly Look around this room. Have you ever wondered how you could gladly hear my preaching and your friends and your neighbors do not gladly hear it? Oh, I tell you, you were prepared before the foundations of the world to hear this preaching. Oh, yes. You are. You are prepared. Prepared. Hallelujah. You're prepared. I'll show you. Just send my YouTube video to a friend of yours and they'll be like, "So, what's the big deal? What you what's so special about him? Give them one of my books and they'll use it for toilet paper. Why? Because they've not been prepared. Amen. They cannot receive it. 97,000 could not receive what Peter preached. Not because they didn't want to. Not because they're sinners. Not because they're bad or ungodly. Come on. But because no one's prepared their mind except for 3,000. Oh ya. She did a book. Hallelujah. They gladly think about it. How does 3,000 Sister Fulen gladly receive the word? Come on. The seed. And 97,000 other Jews that have been raised on the Torah, on the word. Could it? How do they not get it? Come on. You're going to find out. Amen. Because when the fire fell on the day of Pentecost, the rest of the city saw a show. But the 3,000 saw a prophecy coming true that they had been taught about. Come on. Come on. Oh, hallelujah. Hallelujah. Now, Sarah, you going to act real happy in a few minutes. You're going to shed that Armstrong enism uh quietness in just a minute when you see where I'm going. The rest of Jerusalem was watching a wonder. Wow. I wonder what it is. The 3,000 were watching a promise being fulfilled. Amen. that their pastor had already prepared them for before it happened. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. So, who are they? Well, we can't start in the upper room. If you want to know who they were, we got to start in Exodus 28 and 1. I'm going to show you who the 3,000 were. You'll never be the same after today. Come on, teach us. You'll never experience Pentecost like you will after today. Exodus 28:1. Let's read. Now remember, Yahweh has just brought Israel out of Egypt. He gave them the Torah. But there is something that Yahweh gave that was more important. Help me now. Come on. Than the Torah. Come on. Surely nothing's more. Oh yes. If I give you a million dollars with no way to protect that million dollars, the protection is more valuable than the million dollar. Hallelujah. Amen. Come on, make it make sense. Yahweh gave Israel something to protect Yes, sir. the Torah, to protect the law. And I'll show you what it was. Read. And take thou unto thee Aaron thy brotherh and his sons with him from among the children of Israel, that he may that he may minister unto me in the priest's office, even Aar, Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar, Aaron's sons. Aaron's sons are now appointed to guard the Torah. Hallelujah. The priest. They are the priesthood. Hallelujah. That's going to guard the truth. There were some priests there. The priesthood had a specific duty. I'll list them for you. Number one, to guard the sanctuary and the Torah. That was their first duty. Number two, to teach the difference between the clean and the unclean and the unclean. And they had a third duty to keep the appointed times. Amen. The priests were the keepers of the calendar. Oh, come on. They were the watchmen of the moade. Hallelujah. Now, I want you to hold that thought because it's going to become the hinge of the entire mystery. They knew what time it was of these 3,000 word. In the wilderness, turn to Numbers 25 and 11. In the wilderness, Israel fell into sin at Baal Peor. A plague broke out among them. And one man was called by God, the grandson of Aaron, the son of Eleazar. And Yahweh makes one man a promise. One man. Have those slides ready for me in just a moment. That first one, one man gets a promise. Amen. Read Numbers 25:11 through13. Amen. And Phineas the Phineas. Phineas. You better get to know about Phineas. He was Aaron's grandson. Israel has committed sin and even the priesthood. Amen. So now Yahweh wittleles it down past Aaron. Now he calls up Phineas. Read. the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, the priest, hath turned my wrath away from the children of Israel. Phineas, one man turned my wrath away from the whole house of Israel. One preacher, one man, one priest did it. Read, while he was zalous for my sake among them, that I consumed not the children of Israel in my jealousy. Wherefore say, Behold, I give unto him my covenant, I give to him my covenant of peace. Amen. To Phineas, one man out of millions. I'm giving one man a covenant of peace. Read. And he shall have it and his seed after him, even the covenant of an everlasting priesthood. Uhoh. Uhoh. I'm fixing to show you where your priesthood comes from. Come on. Right there in that verse. Amen. Come on. You were the children of Phineas. Oh, hallelujah. Phineas was given a covenant that after him, God would raise up people like him. They were zealous. Amen. They were zealous to guard the covenant. Come on. Amen. Hallelujah. They were zealous to guard the Sabbath. They were zealous to guard the moade, the calendar. They were zealous. Amen. And he said, "I'm going to establish a new priesthood through Phineas's children." Hallelujah. Amen. Oh, it gets better. Now, the line of Phineas continues. Bring that first slide up. And in the days of King David, another priest rises out of Phineas's household in 1 Chronicles 6 3-8. 1 Chronicles 6, there's Aaron, Eleazar, and there's Phineas, but he had a grandson named Zadok. Come on. Hallelujah. Now, we're not going to read it. You can read it in sec 1 Chronicles 6 3-8. It lays out that bloodline. Watch the faithful line continue through Zadok. Now, for those of you that don't know much about Zadok, his name simply means righteous. Come on. Righteous. He does it right. His name is where we get the name Sadc. That's right. which means a righteous one. It's where we get MelchzdaC. Come on. Zadok is Melch Zadok. Amen. Kings and priests. That is MelchzDC. Now brothers and sisters, that is where Melchisad comes from. And the sons of Zadok were known as the righteous ones. And in a few minutes, we're going to pull out the Dead Sea Scrolls and we're going to show you what name they went by, the righteous ones out there in the Kuman caves. Now, Zadok stood with King David in everything. Amen. When Abselum rebelled against David and left Jerusalem and carried the ark outside the city, it was Zadok that stood with David. Amen. When Adonijah tried to steal the throne, who anointed Solomon, the rightful king in First Kings chapter 1? Zadok. When Solomon's temple was built, it was Zadok that ministered there. Zadok was faithful when others were not. David, a man after Yahweh's own heart. After Zadok, David takes the sons of Zadok. Yeah, that's right. And divides them up. Come on. Into 24 priestly courses. Yes, he did. Now, if you want to know why he did that, that's the 24 elders of the book of Revelation. Amen. Come on. Amen. He did everything after the pattern in heaven. He established 24 elders. Amen. Right here on earth. And these sons of Zadok were divided into somebody say shift work. Shift work. Where were they going to work at? They were the only ones allowed. Come on. To work at the temple. The second temple. No other. They had to come from Phineas. Come on. Zad comes from Phineas. Amen. And only Zadok's sons were divided into those 24 shifts. It took a lot of priests to barbecue animals from thousands of Jewish people every day. Come on. And so they would take a family and you would get one week and that whole course would work that week. Amen. That was called the courses of the priest of Zadok. Amen. Now, the reason that's important is because 1 Chronicles 24 and verse 10, I want you to notice something. 1 Chronicles 24 and 10. I'm only teaching. I'm sorry if you're getting bored. Come on. Amen. Amen. 1st Chronicles 24:10, the seventh to Hakaz, the eighth to Abijah. All right. Who was given the eighth course? Come on. People asleep on me. No, no, no. Let's start. If you don't get this, tell me who had the eighth course. Aba or Always remember that. Remember that eighth course, it went to the family of Aya. A beia. Why is that important? Because in when we get to the New Testament, 2,000 years later, there was a priest out of the course of Aia from that courseine. Okay? And that priest is standing, the Bible said, at the altar of incense right here. Amen. And it was there that an angel named Gabriel appears to the eighth course of a beh. Okay. And announces the prophet John the Baptist. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Now after David sets this up, you'll find the father of John the Baptist in that eighth course of a beia. Okay. Amen. Now Ezekiel was given a vision of the millennial reign. He was not given a vision of a millennium temple. Right? Go out there and get my book called the Ezekiel temple. But I want to read to you what Ezekiel said about the millennial reign. Ezekiel 44. Come on, wake up. Stay with me. 15 and 16. Amen. We don't have much further to go. But the priest, the Levites, the son of Zadok, that kept the charge of my sanctuary, when the children of Israel went astray from me, they shall come near to me to minister unto me, and they shall stand before me to offer me the fat and the blood, sayeth Yahweh. So in the millennial reign, the only people that will rule and reign with Christ as priests, come on, are these sons of Zad. Amen. Amen. No one else is allowed. Yes, sir. In the heavenly temple, except these sons of Zadok. He said only they can come near. Oh, hallelujah. Now, he didn't say nobody else would be saved. That's right. But only they will be allowed in the inner sanctum to understand holy things. Only these sons are allowed in forever. This will be an everlasting priesthood. Now, before we watch this priesthood that you're looking at get wiped out, and they do almost almost almost. I want to show you the weapon they carried. Amen. They had a weapon for 3,000. The single most overlooked key in the mystery. I'm about to show you why those 3,000 were at the right place, at the right time, at the right time. They were the only ones that had the correct day for Shabuote. They were the only ones. They were the only ones that knew what time it was. Hallelujah. Woo. Oh yeah. Come on. It's getting good. They had a calendar. That's right. Bring that second slide up. They were the keepers of a calendar. Yes, sir. And I want you to know today, there are very few of their descendants left that keep that same calendar. Number two, they were the keepers of a calendar. Oh, I'm one of them. Number two, quickly. These sons of Zadok kept this calendar. Slide number two that I sent. There it is. This calendar of 364 days with four tufas. This calendar alone is what was kept by the only sons that were authorized to keep up with what was holy. Amen. Come on. If the calendar you're on doesn't come from these sons of Satok, you're on illegitimate time. Come on. Come on. Amen. Apostle. That's right. And I've come to tell you, every messianic movement out there that's still chasing the sun, I'm sorry, the moon, like the witches do, I'm telling you something. You won't show up at the right time. Hallelujah. Amen. We're not moonchasers. No. We don't try to find a sliver. We stand on a solid rock. Time that never changes. time that is predictable. Hallelujah. I've never understood. I used to be on that calendar when I first came to the message. I'd send somebody out to try to see the moon and we said I used to call our church the neck breakers. We was always looking, chasing the moon. Wow. Amen. That's right. And and one day it hit me. Thank God. Is God this unorganized? Come on, say it. Is Yahweh this chaotic? Come on, Apostle. That I've got to hope I see a moon. What if there's a storm to know what time it is, right? Or is he mathematical? Is he strategic? Does his weekly Sabbath ever change his annual Sabbath? Hallelujah. Never. Woo. They're falling the same day every year. Now, there were Jews in Jerusalem there to keep Shabuote on a different calendar day. Oh, come on. Wow. Like 197 thou of 97,000. What you need to understand about the Jews of that day, we act like they were one big happy family. No, baby. The Jews don't get along over anything hardly. They were just like the Baptists, the Pentecostals, the Catholics, the they had the Sadducees, the Pharisees, the Essenes, and every other different opinion just like we do today. Yes, sir. So there were some Jews testing. I knocked my There were some Jews that were there to keep the feast, but not on the day that it had fully come. Come on. Amen. Come on. Hallelujah. Wow. Amen. Hallelujah. Not on the day that it was fully come. Hallelujah. Yeah, some of them were there by the moon and it may be the next day or a day before. Right. There's a reason they missed it. That's right. They was on the wrong calendar. Come on. Come on. Brothers and sisters, a calendar determines what day you show up. Yeah. And if there is only one right day for an appointment with Yahweh, then the people keeping the wrong calendar will show up on the wrong day and miss the appointment entirely. They were just as divided. Their calendars were all different. The Essenes kept a different calendar than the Sadducees. The Jew, the the everybody's on different time just like today. Amen. Amen. There were plenty of Jews there. For example, typically when we celebrate Passover, all the other messianic groups are doing it the night before or two days later, right? Yes, sir. They were all in Jerusalem to keep the feast, but not on that. Wow. particular day. Come on. That's why they wasn't excited. Come on. That's right. Acts chapter 2 doesn't say when the day of Pentecost come. It said when it fully came fully. That's why the spirit fell on the true day because there was a group of people who had been taught by their pastor. Come on. Thank you. Amen. True time. Amen. And what was about to come on the world. Oh, hallelujah. They were well prepared. Yes, sir. To gladly receive the message of their day. Oh, hallelujah. Hallelujah. Now, I'm not going to tell the story. Many of you know it. how they the Greeks come in and slaughtered and destroyed the temple and bought the priesthood. The last legitimate Zedekite priest, what was his name? Onas the third. Now, see, some of y'all ain't no more interested in this. Come on. You know why? You looking for Pentecostal power and you going to be left behind in tabernacle maturity. Come on. Mature us. So there Onas III is murdered but his priest left the temple. Hallelujah. And they took with them the calendar. Come on. And they tried, the Greeks tried to erase this calendar. I want you to know there's a reason no one ever knew about this calendar. The Greeks thought they had gotten rid of it. Amen. They tried to erase the evidence of the Sakites. Come on. Their genealogies erased them. They tried to burn it, bury it, and rewrite the story so no one would remember there had ever been a true way. They threw out the calendar and they went to the lunar Babylonian calendar complete with pagan Babylonian names such as January, February, March, April, and May. That's right. But here's the problem. The wicked seized the temple, but they couldn't seize the covenant. Amen. That God made with Phineas. Come on. About a priesthood that would never die. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. So what happens when they seize the temple and murder the priest and burn the records and replace the calendar? What happens to an everlasting priesthood? Isn't that what it's called? An everlasting priesthood. Then what happens if you burn them all and you destroy them all? Then what happens to the covenant? It's got to be found 2,000 years later in a desert cave. That little shepherd boy throwing round. Hallelujah. They had destroyed the temple and the priesthood, but they did not destroy the records that were put in that cave. And for 2,000 years, the devil thought he had stolen that priesthood from the earth. Hallelujah. But we're back. Glory. Glory. We're back. Glory. Hallelujah. Cannot destroy the covenant with us. Oh, blessed day is holy name. Hallelujah. Glory. Glory. Hallelujah. Glory. Glory. Glory. Glory. Glory. Woo. Oh, don't you ever think we debating over calendars? We're debating over covenants and destinies and identities. Come on. Well, pastor, we don't want to debate over calendars. It ain't a calendar, honey. It's an identity. That's right. That's right. Somebody said, "Pastor Levon, how do you know that y'all on the right time today?" I said, "Here's how I know. " I have literally, and we're going to look at those records when we come to your place, Yes, sir. to the Museum of the Bible. We're going to see these dead seas. Yes, sir. Here's how I know I'm on the right day. Because I can prove to you that those sons of Zadok, this was the day that they kept Shàuote. I can prove it by their records. Because they left immaculate records. Go get my book out there and you'll see how we are on the exact same schedule that the sons of Sadok were on. It's unquestionable. It's undebatable. The mystery is solved. It's over. It's done. Hallelujah. Now, I can prove mine. Can you prove yours? Come on. Somebody said, "I know I'm on the right calendar cuz I'm on the crescent moon and I'm on the the cuckoo moon. I'm on all kind." Okay. Then I need you to go pull up some documents from 2,000 years of documented records of a priesthood that was ordained by God to protect time. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. The cover up failed. Amen. Amen. Shepherd boy 1947. That's right. When Israel becomes a nation, a little shepherd boy, brother, a better boy. That's right. Out of the millions of caves, in a Quran desert. Come on. Come on, Apostle. Amen. Little Andy on Mayor just flipping along, flipping rocks. Come on. And he hears a crash. Oh, time busted open. Oh, right on time. Hallelujah. He said, "What was that crash?" And they went in that cave and there preserved for the priesthood that would return in the end time was the records we needed to prove time. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. I'm trying to hurry. Hallelujah. Come on, Apostle. This is okay. Do you know why it was discovered in 194748? Come on. Because when they killed the last Sukite, Yes, sir. I could hear God promising them, Amen. It's an everlasting priesthood. Oh, hallelujah. Don't worry. You got it. They can kill priest, but not the hood. You understand? You understand? You can take it all the time. Fire. Fire. Just like a shepherd boy brought down David Goliath, another shepherd boy brought down Babylon in a cave. Hallelujah. Now, the people that kept the flame going in the wilderness, they were the heirs, Amen. of the everlasting priesthood. Amen. They were the righteous remnant that refused the calendar of Babylon. And I want to tell you today, those are the people who were standing in Jerusalem when the fire fell. They are the first 3,000, the first harvest, the first fruit. They were there. Hallelujah. How did they gladly receive the word? They knew one day it was. Amen. Amen. Amen. They had been out in them caves for generations telling one another there's going to come a certain shave. Come on. where God's going to pour out his spirit on all flesh. Oh, it wasn't that one. Yeah, that one comes in the millennial ring. Well, hallelujah. They had been preparing. 3,000. They had been preparing. The Bible said they gladly received what Peter was preaching because Peter was preaching what John the Baptist had been preaching. He was preaching what they had been preaching. Hallelujah. Now, history knows them by another name, the Essenes. Yes, sir. Now, when we found the Dead Sea Scrolls, there was a document in there called the Damascus document. Yes, sir. And it talks about these Zakites. Here's what it says about them. Listen. The sons, he called these Essins in that document, the sons of Zadok who kept the charge of the sanctuary. And they called themselves the sons of light. Come on. The sons of light. Hallelujah. And they called their movement the way. Amen. Hallelujah. Now, they have another document that we found called the Community Rule. It's one of the Dead Sea Scrolls. Amen. Y'all need to find these when we go look at all of these. The Community Rule, it says that their purpose, they wrote down their purpose. In 1 QS8:14, this is their purpose. To prepare the way of Yahweh in the wilderness. Amen. Amen. They were the righteous ones. They were the order of Melchzdc. They were the sons of Sadok. And they kept the charge in exile. Now they ate everything in common. They mikvet. They believed in water baptism. And they copied scrolls. They kept the calendar. And they kept waiting. And they was waiting for the three pillars of their belief. I'm going to go over those three pillars of what they were in those caves believing. I hope you're ready. Come on. Come on. Pillar number one, bring that screen up. in their book called the community rule in 1QS 420 through 21 they believed that very soon Yahweh would pour out the spirit of holiness and he would cleanse the people from all wicked actions so when they saw that Holy Spirit being poured out that was in their community rule There was nothing for them to do but gladly receive the word that they had always believed. Hallelujah. Prepared. This was the pillar number one. They believed the Holy Spirit was going to be poured out. Amen. So you got all these Jews in Jerusalem and you got a small 3enter. Come on. Come on. Hallelujah. These are the 3enters. 3,000 out of a 100. This is your 3%. Uh-huh. And these 3enters had been taught out there in that little ministry called First Harvest, the little apostolic assembly with their teacher John the Baptist wearing the Petalone. What was they being taught? It's in their scroll. You can go read it. The spirit of holiness is coming and it will cleanse us. Oh, hallelujah. So, they're walking by the temple and they hear Peter preaching and saying, "This is that." Oh. Oh. And they looked at their calendar and said, "Oh yes, and this is the day." See, they were already prepared for what Peter had to say. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. They were already prepared. Wow. Just like you're going to already be prepared on some Yam Terua very soon. Wow. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. When he splits that sky. Wow. You'll look at your calendar and say, "Oh yeah, John. I know what that is. I gladly receive the word. Hallelujah. We're trying to hurry now. Hallelujah. The Pharisees were too busy with their oral traditions. Nobody had taught the Pharisees pillar number one. Right. Come on. But they were there that day. Amen. But nobody had prepared their mind for an outpouring. Amen. Amen. Only the threeenters. Yes, sir. Only the threeenters had been taught in their scroll the spirit's coming on shallow. Oh, amen. Wow. Now, the Sadducees, they didn't believe in the outpouring of the spirit anyway. They don't believe in a resurrection, right? Right. They're the Baptist of the Jews, right? But the 3enters, they were expecting a divine outpouring on Chevrolet. Amen. Amen. Now, they had all read Joel's prophecy. I'm going to pour out my spirit, come on, on all flesh. So when they heard Peter say, "This is that which" which was prophesied by Joel, they remembered what Joel said because they had been zealous of the word, studying the word in their caves. That's right. Sometimes you may feel like you're studying the word in your caves. Uh that's the best place uh God ever put you was in that cave. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. But when you're dwelling in caves, God will send you a John the Baptist to your cave to teach you and prepare you for what's coming. Hallelujah. Now, they had a second pillar, and this one blew my mind. They were different. Here's where the Essenes were different from every other Jew of their day. Amen. They were the only ones out of the Jewish faith that believed not in one coming of Messiah. Come on. But two, come on. Come on. And that's why when he looked different than the Pharisees were expecting, right, they could accept him. Come on. Because they understood there would be two comingings of the Messiah. Come on. They had been prepared. Been prepared. Wow. Let me read it to you from their own documents. The sons of Zadok, when they studied their scrolls, they saw two offices, a priestly anointing and a kingly anointing. Now, where did the Zetites get that from? From Zachchariah that said, "There are two anointed ones that stand by Yahweh." Come on. Come on. to a priest. Come on. And a king. And a king. Hallelujah. Scroll back up. I want to show that second pillar. I want you to look at what the Zetakites believed that no other Jew believed. Two Messiah. They believed there would be one banquet table. Look at the table. They believed that the one on the left would bless the bread. Amen. Amen. Amen. And the one on the right would eat and drink the meal. Hallelujah. Hang tight. Hallelujah. Hopefully somebody just picked up. Hallelujah. Oh my God. Hallelujah. Here's what they believe. They believed that the priestly Messiah would bless the bread and the wine and would say these words. I will not. Come on. That's right. I will not drink this until I do it as king. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Glory. Hallelujah. Amen. I'm of the belief that the only Jews that accepted Christ as their savior were the Zanakites, the Essins. They were the only ones that understood a priest first and a king second. Come on. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. There's a scroll called one QSA and I want you to read it when you get a chance. Go down there. Scroll down to one QSA. Scroll down. I didn't put it in there. Did I didn't put it in there? I'll Here's what it says. It describes a banquet where the priest blesses the bread. Yeah. but the kingly Messiah would take the bread and the wine and that the priest and king would be at one banqueting table. Now, here's where they get it from. Oh my word. Here's where they get it from, pastor. Where how did they know that? Because they didn't have a corrupted Bible like you do. Come on. That's right. Yeah. Because in Malachi 3 and1, I'd like to show you something. Turn there in Malachi 3 and1. Your Bible is going to say something that their Bible didn't say. Okay. Amen. Read Pastor Morgan. Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me. Amen. And the Lord whom you seek shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant covenant whom you delight in. Behold, he shall come, sayeth the Lord of hosts. Here's the problem. In the original scripture, it didn't say he or him. Amen. It said they and them. They and them. Wow. Amen. Amen. Come on. The Zetakites were expecting a them Messiah. Wow. Two Messiahs. Come on. Wow. So therefore, when they meet Yeshua and he doesn't look like a king. Oh, I come on. They're okay. Come on. As long as he look like a priest. Right. Right. Hallelujah. Come on. Amen. The Pharisees, they couldn't accept Yesua because they didn't believe in a them and a them Messiah. They believed in a him. That's right. Amen. But the Zetites believed in a them. The Essenes believed in two Messiahs coming in two ways. Now, I'm not going to go in to the two birds of Leviticus. I wished I had time, but I don't. Now, let's talk about pillar number three. They expected a renewed covenant. Come on. And they believed, listen to this carefully, that Yahweh would cut a renewed covenant with a restored priesthood like he did at Mount Si. Amen. And they believed that that new covenant would only be with that 3enter, if you will, of the sons of Sadok. Now, brothers and sisters, this is where it gets good. Come on. Come on. They had a community rule and we're fixing to implement that rule right here. Amen. It was called the rule of discipline. A man could not just walk in and join the ministry. Amen. Among the sons of light, there was a process. Two years, a period of testing. Come on. That ran two to three years. Amen. And once you had survived that two to three years, then they would bring you fully into their covenant community. And you will never guess the day that they decided for all covenant initiations. Come on, to take place, hallelujah. Shalom. Come on. Here we are. Here we are. Hallelujah. So going forward, all new partners in ministry will be given the right hand of fellowship and they'll stand before us on Shàuote every year. That's when they will be accepted into our covenant. Hallelujah. At Shàuote, that means they got time. They got time all year to show who they are. And listen brothers and sisters of all the feast of the year after in other words you know how a school schedules a graduation on a certain date their graduation date for all new partners shabuote hallelujah was shabuote hallelujah these men had been in the wilderness they had been interns well they knew that their day of initiation was coming due. Hallelujah. Amen. And as they're walking by that upper room and the spirit is being poured out, they knew that that was the day that they were to be initiated into the covenant of the renewed covenant of God with the house of Israel. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Woo! They knew today's the day. Oh, I don't know if I can go look. I hope my question I started off with if not is why 97,000 godfearing your family's filled with God-fearing people. Amen. Filled with Godfearing people. Amen. But you see, until you open a book from FHMI, your mind is not prepared for what God is doing in this hour. You cannot know until your mind is prepared. Hallelujah. They've been getting ready their whole lives to be initiated. All right, let's run through this these 24 more pages. I don't have time to get to tomorrow. Now, don't stop. I told you to remember the eighth course of Ailia, right? Well, we know that's John the Baptist, the voice of Elijah. Amen. That's getting ready to introduce the Messiah. Let me tell you what happened. He was born. If you go to read the story, I don't have time. It's in Luke. His mother was of the sons of Aaron. Meaning Zedite. Amen. John the Baptist was born as the voice of Elijah through a very special birth. The Bible said he was filled with the Holy Ghost while he was in the womb. That's right. Amen. Born in the spirit, the power of Elijah. Amen. Amen. And there he stood. He had been in the wilderness. He left the Jews at the temple and he moved out. He decided to become a partner in that little bitty ministry out there. Hallelujah. And he decided that he would go and wait. Yes, sir. And be trained by the state of God. Matured, learned the word. When he got out there, he came back out. Amen. He brought water baptism. He looked up to Yesua. Notice what he did not say. He was a Zetekite. Notice what he didn't say. He didn't say, "Behold the king." Yeah. That's right. Come on. Behold the lamb. Behold the lamb. He understood the lamb would become the priest. Amen. He understood who that was. Amen. That didn't look like a king. Why? His mind was ready. Hallelujah. Amen. Wow. His mind was ready. John never proclaimed a king. I want to show you something if I might. I know we're all tired. Matthew 1:14. No one's more tired than me. Hang out. Come on. Matthew 1:14. Amen. I want to show you a little something interesting about the genealogy of Yesua. Matthew 1:14. Read that for me. And Azor begat Sadok. Ho ho. Who do I see in the lineage of Messiah? Sadok. That's what it says. Amen. Yes priest. Hallelujah. Amen. That's his lineage. Zad. Amen. And therefore, John the Baptist could not introduce the Zedekite priest unless he had been trained by the priest of Zad. He had to baptize him as a Zakite. Hallelujah. Wow. Hallelujah. Yes took the bread, blessed it. Amen. Broke it and said, "Take it. Eat it." This is the blood. Amen. But I will not drink it from the vine until that day in my father's. What day? Look up on your screen. Tabernacles. You see those two kings sitting together, the priest and king sitting at the Passover marriage supper of the lamb. Hallelujah. Amen. The Passover is the marriage supper. Amen. Of the lamb. And what kills me, every Christian I know wants to go to the marriage supper while never going to it every April. Amen. That's right. That's right. Come on. Wow. The priest's job is not the feast at the table. That's the king's job. Yes, sir. The priest's job is to serve the bread. Amen. Amen. Oh, help us, Lord. Brothers and sisters, so many I'm just skipping through here. I'll upload these into searchthes.com and you can read the whole thing. There was more than just the Kuman caves. Bring that next slide. I want to show you the Zetakites did not just live in Jerusalem. They had a network. Their headquarters was actually Damascus. And the thing about the Essen network, I want you to look at that screen. The Essene network, they had, watch this, little small KTC's. Hallelujah. They were not many, but they had them in Parthion, Syria, Chambersburg, Teleico planes. They had a handful of hideouts, for these Zetakites. And it was called the Damascus Network. Hallelujah. And they would send letters to train each camp. Now I I I would like to prove to you what happened with those little networks. The Bible said there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men out of every nation of the heavens. These Zedites, I'm not going to have time to prove to this today. You can read it. They were not passing through Jerusalem when the Holy Ghost fell. That word dwelling at Jerusalem is the word uh ketoko which means literally settled. That's right. And permanent residence. They had all moved to headquarters. Wow. Wow. Yes. Hallelujah. Oh my. Why? The day was approaching. Come on. They were getting ready. Can I prove it to you? Would you like me to prove it? I will. Oh, hallelujah. What immediately happened after the day after the day of Pentecost? What immediately happened? The Bible said they started communal living. There was only one group of people that was communal living. They sold everything and they all moved in together. That was Zetakites that lived like that. They these were the Zetite. They were literally why they knew that he had come as priest the first time it was time for him to return as king. So they all sold everything, moved to River and waited for the next outpouring of what God was going to do in the land. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Amen. They were not in town for the holiday. They lived there. Right. Amen. They had relocated. I'd like to prove it to you. There is a historian in the Damascus document says this. The men I love this. The men that lived in the camps, the KTC's, come on. They walk in the way. Hallelujah. Right. And then it says they come from the land of Damascus. Josephus, which was a historian, wrote these words about these Adakites. There seems to be one or two of them in every city. Come on. Hallelujah. My goodness. Two to a city. Hallelujah. You can't make this. Come on. That's who we are. I'm reading it from Josephus. They are in every city where few of them dwell. That's in wars 2.8.4. And then Felo of Alexandria, another historian, he described them this way. They are mystic people that live outside of Alexandria, which was a big city. And they all live the same pattern. Listen to this. They love to commune together. Hallelujah. I'm one of them. I'm one of them. He said, "And they love to share meals." Come on. Y, he said, he said they love scriptural meditation. Oh, I'm one of them. And this last one, and the expectation of the outpouring of the spirit. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. This was a nationwide movement of two by two. Amen. Two to a city. Two to a city. They were devout. They were dwelling in Jerusale. And the Bible tells us that when that day came, they had been watching Daniel's clock. And when a hund,000 good people, amen, heard the message of that day, they were so in love with the message of their day. Oh wow. My because no one had prepared them. No one had prepared them for what was going to happen. They didn't have a team. They shouted three,000. Hallelujah. Just like Gideon's army. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Woo. Hallelujah. I'm glad I know who I am. Oh yes. I'm glad I know. Amen. I'm glad I know what time it is. Thank you, Father. I'm glad on the day of Pentecost. I stopped by to remember Pentecost. Oh, hallelujah. For a moment, hallelujah. But to say, what's coming in my day, and what is here, Amen. far outshines, the day of Pentecost, hallelujah. Would you give God a clap of for his word? You're dismissed. God bless you. Hallelujah. Thank you, Father.
