(115) Zion's Call International Telecast with Shane Vaughn 1/11/2014 - YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7lmlck8gtgI Transcript: (00:03) [Music] [Applause] welcome to another edition of Zion's call I'm Shane Von and it's a pleasure to again join with you the saints of God around the world as we discover the word of God I received a phone call a few days ago or rather a message on my Facebook account and it was from a lady named Donna and she said brother V I have a question and I I don't understand why the good people seem to Die Young while Wicked evil people you can't seem to kill them and she was speaking about her beloved husband that had passed away way (00:54) too young have you ever heard the expression the Good Die Young well they really do a lot of times in my own family my grandmother had 10 children and uh there's a vast assortment of children in that group of people 10 all with different personalities and Lifestyles but there was one of those 10 Uncle Roy that uh was probably the best of the group bar nun lived his life for God from a child never sought the ways of the world drugs alcohol just a good man a minister of the Gospel died way too young of all my grandmother's children he died and then (01:39) the question comes up why today we're going to deal with why we're going to deal with some wonderful subjects today that you need to get tuned in get your Bible in a few moments I'll be singing and playing the piano and then we're going to dive into the word of God I want to explain one thing to you there's not one question in your mind that this Bible does not answer you see there's a lot of books in the world there's science books biology books history books poetry books and many of those books can tell you many things there's (02:17) much knowledge in those books the science book can tell you or try to tell you where man came from the history book can tell you about how man has progressed the Biology book can tell you about the the how of man and how he operates but none of those books can tell you why man exists except for this book the mistake that people make people say brother Von this is a confusing book it's because they try to read it as a science book they try to dig back into Genesis and try to see how old the Earth is and and things of that nature and (03:02) they try to get scientific information the historian looks for historical information and all of that is in this book but this is not a science book it's not a history book it's not a Biology book it's a religious book what it deals with is the origin of sin the solution of sin and the final disposition of sin and when you read the Bible looking for the why of man's existence you will find your answer today we're going to be studying out of the Book of Revelation and we're going to be studying out of the 10th chapter in a (03:44) few moments and there's a verse there that I want you to begin pondering on before I start teaching and it says these words and it says in verse 7 but in the days of the voice of the seventh angel when he he shall begin to sound the mystery of God will be finished or complete what does that mean what is the mystery of God and what is John telling us the mystery of God shall be complete do you have any idea what the mystery of God is before this program ends today you'll know full well what this great mystery is it's going to change your (04:28) life for the better it's going to help you to understand God's plan for the ages I'll be right back to bring you into the word of God stay tuned for some gospel singing and some Ministry of in music and I look forward to seeing you just a moment [Music] [Applause] I was going down for the last time no one heard my cry my voice was swiftly fading drifting with the (05:32) tide until I had from out of nowhere gently slipped into mine and I thank God that he found me he found me just in time just before the wav of Slumber rocked my soul to sleep just be for the angry pillow roll me out to the Deep the Lord knows how long I drifted before I saw the old life Al and I thank God that he found me he found me just in time oh I thank God that he found me he found me just in time oh I remember when Jesus found me I (06:39) was four years old and I went down to an oldfashioned altar and gave my heart to Jesus and I've been in love with him from that moment to right now and he's never left me he's never forsaken me if you're watching me today and you're drifted away from the Lord you cannot drift any further than he can reach you cannot fall any faster than God Can Fly he'll catch you wherever you are whatever you've been going through in your life God can turn it around he can make everything in your life right again he's just God like (07:20) [Music] that there is a [Music] river that flows from deep [Music] within there is a [Music] fountain that cleanses the soul from [Music] sin Oh Come to these water there is there's a (08:25) v Supply [Music] there is a [Music] river that never shall run your oh come come to these Waters [Music] there is a last supp there is a [Music] river that never never shall run Dr (09:30) oh if you don't know the Lord today there's a river that flows from about [Music] Calvary and it still saves the soul it still cleanses the cner it still sets the captive free there's a river that still flows from the Throne of God the blood of Jesus Christ and whatever you're going through if it's sickness if it's disease if it's drug addiction that blood can still set you free he's a God that can do anything oh we worship you we give you glory I worship you because of who you are he at your [Music] (10:36) feet at your [Music] feet there's just no place I'd rather be than right here down at your feet oh your feet Lord oh and your [Music] feet there's just no place I'd rather be than at your feet [Music] I wanted to take a moment and speak to (11:44) all of my friends and supporters across the world that watch Zion's call first of all I wanted to say thank you for all of your support I wanted to thank you for your help for the words of encouragement that you send me every day either on the internet or by phone or by mail and I wanted to stop and just let you know what God is doing a few days ago when I received a phone call from the president of this network about starting a television broadcast I had to pray long and hard about that decision because there's a million preachers on (12:19) TV and I just wanted to make sure that I wasn't going on television just to be on television and then I realized that there is a message that this ministry preaches to the world a message about going from Mount Calvary to Mount Zion a message about enduring to the end a message about overcoming addictions and sins in your life and how to do that and I didn't hear that message being preached very much and so I knew that we had a message but of course we really didn't have the means the cost is astronomical for the airwaves but God is (12:58) opening so many doors right now I received a call just yesterday from the foothills of Tennessee seven stations that want to add this program to 30 million viewers by dish and Direct TV and then we want to do more time on this station and in Mississippi we received a phone call from the cable networks there they want to air our program and what we need is God through you to help us do that we are asking you today if you've been blessed by this broadcast there's going to be an address at the bottom of this screen I have no holy water to sell (13:37) no prayer cloths to sell no gimmicks at all just a plea for those that would like to help this ministry go to the next level and meet the need that the people have we invite you to support us today God bless you for anything you send or anything you do and I pray that you will be part of Zion's call again God bless you in advance for what the Lord lays on your heart to help us go across the world with the message of Zion God bless you as my prayer I've had several pastors that have called for Revival from this (14:16) program and we are scheduling for this year if you would like to have us come to your assembly your church we would love to come and be a blessing any way that the Lord would have us to be a blessing today I want to talk to you about the mystery of God and when time shall be no more the Bible said in Revelation chap 10 that the mystery of God is going to be finished when the seventh trumpet or the seventh angel begins to sound their message what does that mean let me explain a few things to you there is one thing that God even God (14:56) Almighty Yahweh cannot create he's a Creator but there's one thing he's powerless to create and that is righteous character in a person God can create a body he can create a mind he can create anything but he cannot create a good character in a person the evidence of that is found in Lucifer now when God created Lucifer in the beginning of Eternity if there is such a thing he created Lucifer an eternal creature now Lucifer can never die he was created with eternal life but eternal life without eternally righteous character (15:45) leads to drastic and climactic results the evidence is found in Lucifer's fall God gave him eternal life before God proved his character and so now God has a desire to create a family of people called the sons of God it is his desire for all eternity for there to be a family of sons that are just like him but before he can give those Sons eternal life there must be a creation of Godly character in their minds and so God came up with a plan and that plan is called time how is character created in the process of what time God created (16:45) time for one purpose to create within people A Renewed mind to watch them through their Earthly journey to see how that they would grow and mature into the mind of God you see I want to explain it like this if you're a dog I can give you a man's brain or a man's mind but a body of a dog will not work with the mind of a man they don't join together they don't mesh before God is going to give you an eternal body before he's going to give you eternal life what must be worked on first is the mind because God cannot give you an eternal (17:36) glorified body or body with a carnal mind the Mind must match up with the body so before the body comes he said let this mind that was in Christ Jesus dwell in you so the purpose of living is to be changed changed from what change Chang from that animal nature that outof control animal that you were born into the Human family as that one that can't control their addictions the one that can't overcome anything Walks Like a dog talks like a dog acts like a dog that mind that rebellious mind is going to be broken in the process of time and in (18:25) this journey called life God is preparing your mind to match up with your Eternal Body you understand at the resurrection of the church there's not going to be a changing of your mind if you're talking about people now you'll be talking about them in your new body if you're hating people now nothing's going to change in the resurrection so you must be preparing the mind bringing it into subjection at this moment with the word of God so that you can line up with the new body now many people in this life they submit to God at a young (19:08) age many people become obedient to the word of God very young they they do so at an early time in their life and therefore the purpose of leaving them on the Earth has been accomplished they have learned the lessons that God would teach them they have matured in to obedience to God and therefore the purpose of living has been completed I'll give you an example before Genesis chapter 5 men lived a thousand years and God said I'm going to tell you something I'm tired of fighting with man's mind I'm tired of fighting against his (19:50) rebellious nature for a thousand years I'm not going to continue struggling or striving with man I'm I'm going to give him 120 years to get it right to convert to be changed to submit and then there are those that never submit they're disobedient to God they're rebellious and therefore God in his Mercy grants them a length of years I know many people you can't kill them if you tried they're evil they're horrible and you think they just cannot die why God is giving them more time time to be changed and now we go into the mystery of God (20:35) what is the mystery of God well let's go read about it in 1 Corinthians chapter 15 and verse 52 we'll begin with verse 51 Paul says I show you a mystery now in the Book of Revelation when this seventh trumpet or this seventh angel the last trumpet begins to sound s Paul said here's what's going to happen we shall not all sleep but we shall be changed in a moment in the twinkling of an eye at the last Trump now brother and sister the last trumpet is the seventh trumpet so at the last trumpet at the same trumpet in (21:20) Revelation 10 all of this is going to happen the trumpet shall sound and the dead shall be raised in C eruptible and we shall be changed let me explain something to you Satan is only aware of God's plan a Satan is clueless about God's plan B plan A is for the nation of Israel every promise in the Bible is made to the nation of Israel so Lucifer in his wisdom devised a plan if you will notice with Cain and Abel he started trying to kill the natural seed line then we see in Moses's day all the Hebrew women having babies and Pharaoh said kill them (22:05) all then in Jesus's day kill them all and then we come on up to the Holocaust Satan is only aware of God's plan for Israel God's plan for the church has been hidden since the world began and this is the mystery the word mystery there is the Greek word musterion which means the secret God has had a secret from the beginning of the world and that secret was Jesus Christ that secret was the Church of the Living God the mystery of God I'll read to you what the mystery of God is in 1 Timothy chapter 3 and verse 16 let's read what (22:53) the mystery of God is 1 Timothy 3 and verse 16 and without controversy great is the mystery of God now we just read in Revelation 10 at the last trumpet at the Resurrection The Mystery of God would be finished and over with and that you want to believe those preachers that tell you the church cannot be found after the fourth chapter of Revelation I'm reading to you about the church the mystery of God in Revelation chap 10 it didn't go away in some secret Rapture it's here heing the sounding of the seventh trumpet which is (23:31) the Great Tribulation great is the mystery of God listen exactly what he says in verse 16 God was manifest In the Flesh see Justified of the spirit seen of angels and called up into heaven now let's go to Ephesians chapter 3 and verse two and we're going to read more about what this mystery of God is Ephesians chap 3 and verse 2 let's read it you're going to love this how that by Revelation he has made known unto me the mystery here again Paul knew what the mystery of God was it was God in Christ and then Christ in you the Church of the (24:20) Living God Satan never knew about this secret Satan never knew about this plan the church matter of fact Paul said that if Satan had known about God's secret he would have never killed Jesus Christ oh brother listen to me one son of God was never the father's plan Jesus Christ was the tithe that God planted into the Earth Jesus was the first among many Brethren God's plan from the beginning was a family many Brethren that would make up the family of God but to get many he had to give up one he had to put the first fruit into practice God (25:01) planted Jesus into the womb of the earth and one day the great mystery will be revealed you the saint of the Living God is God's secret Lucifer has no idea that you a gentile born of the flesh is going to come up out of the ground he knows Jesus did but he is clueless that's why he still fights God he still thinks he can win he still thinks if he destroys Israel he destroys the plan of God but God's got a mystery and he said when the seventh angel begins to preach his message when that message begins to perfect the church that the church will (25:38) come into maturity and the church will be finished the Church of the Living God will be complete and God's body will come up from the ground I'll continue reading now he said I'm going to show you the mystery verse 5 which in other Ages was not made known under the son of men and here is that mystery in verse number six that the Gentiles should be fellow hes and of the same body and partakers of the Gospel when the trumpet of God sounds the seventh trumpet the last trumpet which it's about to occur very soon the mystery of God the church (26:24) will have matured into a place of the full stature of Jesus Christ she will have come Beyond her arguments and her bickering and she will understand who she is what she is and her purpose throughout the Millennium and throughout eternity and God says at the last Trump at the Resurrection The Mystery of God is finished what is that mystery that God was in a man called Jesus and now God is manifested in you the many Brethren that will make up the remnant of God I want you to know that's why sometimes the Good Die Young because (27:04) they matured they came into a place with God where he was pleased with their obedience and the purpose of their living had come to an end and they were taken Beyond the Veil of time I want to tell you all around the world the seventh trumpet is about to sound The Trumpet Of God is about to blow throughout the world the mystery will be finished the church will be Resurrected never to struggle in this life anymore never to cry the tears of a broken heart never to endure the pain of this world that we live in the mystery is almost (27:40) complete the church is almost perfected and Jesus Christ is about to return to shut up the mystery and call this home and let Satan watch as this secret is revealed to the whole world get ready for the last Trumpet Of God is my prayer [Applause] [Music]

Summary

Shane Vaughn teaches that the central purpose of human life is the development of godly character in preparation for immortality. The "Mystery of God" is identified as God's hidden plan to reproduce His life in a family of mature sons through Christ. The sermon links Revelation 10:7, Ephesians 3, and 1 Corinthians 15 to argue that the mystery reaches completion at the seventh trumpet when the Church is perfected, resurrected, and revealed as God's completed family. The message also explains premature death among the righteous as evidence that their earthly purpose has been fulfilled.
