things that ... the carvings that
they've actually carved a
façade of buildings out in the
front of one building, right in
the mountainside in the rock;
but it is not a pleasant place,
believe me.
Now if that's where we're to
go, you are not going to like it.
And yet a lot of our people
want to get to Petra. "Oh, can
we go to Petra?” Well now, get
that right out of your mind
because it is not a pleasant
place.
I will just say this: If the Bible
tells us WHERE we're to go on
the
"two wings of a great
eagle"
(and the Bible does say
that we will do that,
[Revelation 12:14]),
that is
where we would go. But I am
not sure the Bible tells us
where we are going to go. So
you still can't be sure of it. But,
if that is not it, then the Bible
does not tell us; but God will
show us in His due time. We
are getting near that time, and
I do want to go back into those
things again.
The Book of Hebrews
So now I just had a little talk
with you for quite a while now,
and it's alright because as I
start in this book of Hebrews I
can stop at any verse I want to.
So let's begin now in the first
chapter of Hebrews, chapter
one.
Hebrews 1:1
God [now
that's the Father], who at
sundry times and in divers
[or different]
manners
spake in time past unto
the fathers by the proph-
ets.
(2)
Hath in these last
days spoken unto us by his
Son whom he hath
appointed heir of all
things ...
Now I want to stop right there
and comment on that a while,
and we may have to go to a few
other Scriptures. You can't
understand the Bible if you
just go right on without know-
ing what is in other Scriptures
that have something to do with
it and say the same thing.
{6} Anyway, the prophets that
spoke unto the fathers. Now
the fathers go back prior to the
time of Christ, don't they?
Well now, in the days of Israel
and of Judah and prior to the
time when Judah was taken
captive and became a slave
people and no longer a nation,
the prophets who wrote were
Moses, and Samuel, Isaiah,
Jeremiah, (I'm not quoting
them in order.
I just jotted some of these
down.), Hosea, Amos, Micah,
David in the Psalms, and
Solomon in the Proverbs, and
Hosea, and Joel, and Zepha-
niah. Now that is all before the
fall of Judah. Some of those
wrote in the days after Israel
had been taken captive and
taken away, but Judah was
still there with its capital in
Jerusslem.
PROPHECIES FOR
THE CHURCH TODAY
Now second, there are two
very important prophecies that
were written IN the captivity
when they were slaves; and
that message DID NOT go to
the fathers back then, but were
only retained to the Church
today -- Ezekiel and Daniel.
They wrote during ... They
