    Daniel #9



    Let us continue from Daniel 3:29-30 (KJV) 29 Therefore I make a decree, That every people, nation, and language, which speak any thing amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made a dunghill: because there is no other God that can deliver after this sort. 30 Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, in the province of Babylon.



    Nebuchadnezzar was a king who served other gods, not the God of Israel. But if you speak against their god, you will be severely punished. This is because there is no other god who can save you from the fiery pit. In other words, the pagan gods they believe in cannot do that. But ironically they still believe in them. Nebuchadnezzar recognized that the God the Jews worship is the mightiest. Better than many religious people today. That is why God appointed Nebuchadnezzar in his generation as a king to rule over the entire world. God just used him as a servant. He chose Nebuchadnezzar to rule and chastise the Jews. God also uses the devil as a servant because the time has not yet come. Satan’s been judged, but he’s still serving God even today. However, while Nebuchadnezzar said this, he did not acknowledge the God of Israel was the true God and that the other gods were counterfeits. Obviously, Nebuchadnezzar praises the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, but he has no will to serve Him. Many people come to church and praise Jesus Christ and glorify the Heavenly Father, yet have no desire to serve Him. That is an unbeliever serving another God, another Jesus. If you truly believe that God manifested in flesh, Jesus Christ, is the One and only who can save you from death and deliver you from hell, then you can serve Him. Serving God means being able to go out with gratitude no matter what circumstances He allows. Unfortunately, people today worship other gods. Another Jesus conjured up from within their own hearts who only blesses them via another gospel. Pastors serve Jesus who only revives their churches. Nebuchadnezzar knelt down and bowed down to Daniel and gave him many gifts, a simple gesture which was better than today’s Christians. Nebuchadnezzar acknowledged God as another god, but not as THE absolute Almighty Creator. There is no other god who can rescue them like this. He did lay down a decree to never speak against God. This just shows that God of Israel is the greatest, does it not? And yet the king himself did not turn from serving his pagan gods. Korean ministers who did not worship at Shinto shrines during the Japanese colonial era truly believed in Jesus Christ. The faithful few who lived according to the words our Lord asked Martha even if it meant their death; John 11:25-26 (KJV) 25 Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: 26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?



    Do you really believe in these words Martha? When she acknowledged, he called and resurrected Lazarus. Why don’t Christians today experience God’s saving power in their lives? Why can’t we experience God who saves us not only from hell, but also from death and hardship in life? It’s because we don’t trust Him. God has led you to such a place and want you to experience how will lead you from there. But people just don’t want to. When there is trouble, it is just resentment and anger. Apostle Paul said: Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ’s sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong. (2 Corinthians 12:10 KJV)  When he was thankful, God saved him because Paul fully trusted in the Lord. Many typically fear over physical, carnal issues, not believing in the scripture though he were dead,

  • 348 - Cataclysmic Events in the World After the Rapture preceding the Millennium

    8-6-2023 Sunday Sermon Message



    Meditations of the Week: Psalm 91:1-16



    Text: Daniel 2:31-45



    Word title: Cataclysmic Events in the World After the Rapture preceding the Millennium



           God showed a frightening dream to King Nebuchadnezzar, who ruled over the entire world in the Babylonian Empire, and had him interpret it with the help of the prophet Daniel. God foretold the rise and fall of many kingdoms that would arise from the Babylonian empire, where the time of the Gentiles began.



         Not only that, but at the end of the Great Tribulation, Jesus will return and judge everyone in the world who has not believed in Him. After judging the Antichrist and the false prophet by throwing them into the lake of fire. After winning the Battle of Armageddon. By establishing His everlasting kingdom on earth according to the disciples’ prayer taught by the Lord Jesus Christ, Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. (Matthew 6:10 KJV)  to accomplish the full dispensation of God’s will, God is finally glorified through the prophecies spoken by Daniel and the vision given to the apostle John.



              God began the time of the Gentiles by raising up the Babylonian Empire to discipline and restore the Israelites by refining them, and successively raised up the Medo-Persia, Greece, and the Roman Empire. Also, the Roman Empire was further divided into East and West Rome, and in the end, the whole world was divided into ten kingdoms, where the ten kings give all their power and authority to the Antichrist, thereby showing the end of the whole world ruled by Satan.



           The prophet Daniel prophesied to Nebuchadnezzar when he saw the fall of the last world empires and the fulfillment of the Millennial Kingdom, which is the  Kingdom of Heaven preached by John the Baptist and Jesus, taking place on earth with the Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ:



    And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever. Forasmuch as thou sawest that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it brake in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God hath made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter: and the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure. (Daniel 2:44-45 KJV)



             Suddenly a stone appeared. The stone struck the image on its feet and on its ten toes, smashing it to pieces. But the stone was not hewn out by human hands. The Apostle Peter testified of this stone:



    ¶ To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious, Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ. (1 Peter 2:4-5 KJV)



             The Lord Jesus Christ is a living stone. As a living stone, He becomes the Head of the Church, and the members of the Church become lively stones, reborn by the Holy Spirit and united with the Lord to become holy priests.



             Concerning the stone, the apostle Peter continues with his testimony:



    Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect,

    Daniel #8



     (Daniel 3:16-25 KJV) Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter. If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king. But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up. ¶ Then was Nebuchadnezzar full of fury, and the form of his visage was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego: therefore he spake, and commanded that they should heat the furnace one seven times more than it was wont to be heated. And he commanded the most mighty men that were in his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, and to cast them into the burning fiery furnace. Then these men were bound in their coats, their hosen, and their hats, and their other garments, and were cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace. Therefore because the king’s commandment was urgent, and the furnace exceeding hot, the flame of the fire slew those men that took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego. And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, fell down bound into the midst of the burning fiery furnace. Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonied, and rose up in haste, and spake, and said unto his counsellers, Did not we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered and said unto the king, True, O king. He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.



    This is the image of the born-again children of God. The born-again children of God do not fear death. This is a great testimony. They spoke with an authoritative voice, confident, unexcited, calm, yet fearless. This is because God is with them. Christians must bear this witness. Not a testimony of “I worked hard and God gave me a lot of money,” but rather a testimony of God’s power before people. When Nebuchadnezzar asked, “Who is the God that will save you?” These guys were bold before the king! Nebuchadnezzar was a mighty king of his time. How dare they speak like this in front of him? God allowed the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, but he was too proud and arrogant, which later caused his great downfall. They didn’t hesitate but responded immediately but boldly proclaimed, “Even if you throws us in the furnace, God can save us. Regardless O king, we will not serve your gods.” We Christians, whether you live or die, just have to obey the word of God. Even when we pray for the sick, we just have to pray and leave it to God to heal them. There’s nothing to be disappointed because of God did not heal them, and there’s nothing to be proud of God’s healing powers. It is all up to God. People tend to believe God doesn’t have the ability when their prayers aren’t answered immediately. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego did not doubt God’s ability, whether God could deliver them or not. This is the attitude of those who rejoice in God. That is why people lose their faith and become afraid when something doesn’t go the way thought of after the prayer. It may seem the world is ridiculing them. But it doesn’t matter. God will take care of everything if you simply obey His words. If we pray according to God’s will, it doesn’t matter whether it comes true or not. It doesn’t matter if it happens right away, a month, or 10 years later. Pastor Song has been trying to lead people with the Word of God during his ministry, and some words took 20 years to be fulfilled. Therefore, if you hold on to the Word and pray, it will surely come true. Likewise, praying for salvation of our non-believing family members will definitely come true. It’s not because God doesn’t have the abili...

  • 346 - What Happens on Earth During the Great Tribulation Following the Rapture

    7-30-2023 Sunday Sermon Message



    Meditations of the Week: Psalm 91:1-16



    Text: Revelation 6:1-17



    Word title: What Happens on Earth During the Great Tribulation Following the Rapture



             The Holy Spirit prophesied through the apostle Paul about the times and seasons of the coming day of Christ, when Jesus Christ would appear in the air:



    ¶ Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; (2 Thessalonians 2:3 KJV)



            The Holy Spirit said He would take John to the future day of Christ and show him what would happen then and thereafter:



    ¶ After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter. (Revelation 4:1 KJV)



            The apostle John witnessed the appearance of the Antichrist when Jesus Christ the Lamb opened one of the seven seals:



    And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer. (Revelation 6:2 KJV)



           After the appearance of the Antichrist, the apostle John witnessed what will follow as Christ continues to open the second through the fourth seals, as peace is removed from the earth by war, then severe famine on a global scale, followed by death and hell killing many.



    ¶ And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see. And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword. And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand. And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine. And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see. And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth. (Revelation 6:3-8 KJV)



              Then, when the Lamb opened the fifth seal, he saw the souls of the slain: ¶ And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held: And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth? And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled. (Revelation 6:9-11 KJV)



             This scene foreshadows what will happen in the last three and a half years of the Great Tribulation. At this time, the Antichrist, the beast rising out of the sea, and the false prophet coming up out of the earth kill all the saints because of the Word of Go...

    Daniel #7



                (Daniel 3:4-12 KJV) Then an herald cried aloud, To you it is commanded, O people, nations, and languages, That at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, ye fall down and worship the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath set up: And whoso falleth not down and worshippeth shall the same hour be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace. Therefore at that time, when all the people heard the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and all kinds of musick, all the people, the nations, and the languages, fell down and worshipped the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up. ¶ Wherefore at that time certain Chaldeans came near, and accused the Jews. They spake and said to the king Nebuchadnezzar, O king, live for ever. Thou, O king, hast made a decree, that every man that shall hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, shall fall down and worship the golden image: And whoso falleth not down and worshippeth, that he should be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace. There are certain Jews whom thou hast set over the affairs of the province of Babylon, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego; these men, O king, have not regarded thee: they serve not thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.



                All the people, the nations, and the languages. We know that King Nebuchadnezzar ruled over all the earth at that time. What a mighty king he must have been. This is foreshadowing of the coming Antichrist who is to rule the whole world and cause the everyone to worship his idol creation. Therefore, we must know that the Old Testament is not only a shadow of what is to come, but also a prophecy at the same time. During the Great Tribulation, everyone who does not worship the image of the Antichrist will be beheaded. No one is exempt. Here we see the instruments playing. Music. Music has been used as a universal language since ancient times. Especially in the last days, it says here that music will be the language of all nations. Look at how people around the world are going crazy even with the Korean language based music these days, which they don’t even understand. This is because Satan is working behind the music. It’s okay even if you don’t understand the lyrics because it stimulates emotions. That is why worship and praise can mislead to praising the devil instead of God even in the church today. Instead of singing hymns, modern apostate churches tend to just show more music videos. People watch the video more than they praise the Lord. They believe to receive grace from such videos. Satan was once the choirmaster of the angels in heaven, he was cast down to earth and is currently residing in the air, but in the future, when such a great orchestra plays, the Antichrist might tell the remaining people of the world to worship his image. Remember: that modern music has practically become a tool for worshiping the devil. We can know that in modern music it is used as a means of communication and as a medium of delivery. For how many years has K-pop taken control of the world? It makes no sense. It’s the work of Satan. We realize this, but most people don’t. Satan uses many music genres to deceive all sorts of people. Just about anywhere especially here in the States, you’ll hear loud beats with earth-shattering bass coming from cars and trucks. Satan works a lot behind the sound of beating drums. Many shamans beat the drums. African natives also dancer to the drum beats. The sound of drums stimulates people’s emotions and prevents them from seeing the glory of God. That’s why people today not only like to listen to music,
