00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:11.640
real life presents the Jack Kibs podcast with intention and boldness to proclaim

2
00:00:11.640 --> 00:00:16.800
truth equip the saints and impact our culture you put up an embryo of a monkey

3
00:00:16.800 --> 00:00:22.320
put up an embryo of a giraffe put up the embryo of a human you pick it guess

4
00:00:22.320 --> 00:00:27.000
what they all look the same you know why cuz it came from the same mind it came

5
00:00:27.000 --> 00:00:31.680
from the same designer it means that he's the creator it doesn't mean that he

6
00:00:31.680 --> 00:00:39.080
didn't do it it means that his fingerprints are universally on everything you

now open your hearts to what God's word has to say to you here is Jack Kibs

12
00:01:06.920 --> 00:01:12.520
in a recent poll 121 people were asked if you died would you go to heaven

13
00:01:12.520 --> 00:01:20.520
120 people said yes before one person said I think I'm going to hell so

14
00:01:20.520 --> 00:01:26.440
for every 120 people one of them had the honesty to say I don't think I'm

15
00:01:26.440 --> 00:01:32.560
gonna think I'm gonna make it by default the American interviewed on the

16
00:01:32.560 --> 00:01:37.760
street thinks he's going to heaven and we've we've taken heaven and we've made it

17
00:01:37.760 --> 00:01:42.720
almost something aboard them heaven oh yeah heaven yeah sure I'm going to

18
00:01:42.720 --> 00:01:48.320
heaven like it's nothing and yet from cover to cover of the Bible from

19
00:01:48.320 --> 00:01:54.280
Genesis to Revelation this book is a book of redemption you need to know that

20
00:01:54.280 --> 00:02:01.640
if you don't this book is all about getting you back into the presence of God now

21
00:02:01.640 --> 00:02:08.320
and forever God wrote this God provided it God made the way of salvation and it's

22
00:02:08.320 --> 00:02:14.800
God who extends the invitation come to heaven with me Jesus said come and follow me

23
00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:20.480
remarkable here's the funny thing you might feel better if I were to put up on

24
00:02:20.480 --> 00:02:25.440
the screens right now these are the 10 rules that you must obey to attend this

25
00:02:25.440 --> 00:02:29.960
church and eventually make it to heaven and people without faith will say right

26
00:02:29.960 --> 00:02:34.120
that down oh wait let me hold it let me take a picture of it let me copy that

27
00:02:34.120 --> 00:02:41.280
that's that's sick and dangerous but that's the human works mindedness of us

28
00:02:41.280 --> 00:02:47.280
trying to watch trying to get back to something that we know on the inside we've

29
00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:53.600
lost or we do not have listen doing good things people is a wonderful thing we

30
00:02:53.600 --> 00:02:59.480
need all of you you need me to do good things we want good citizens that's

31
00:02:59.480 --> 00:03:06.560
fantastic and you can't exactly fault the person holy who says I do good things

32
00:03:06.560 --> 00:03:11.640
so I can go to heaven their motives are wrong what they're trying to do though

33
00:03:11.640 --> 00:03:18.800
is a good thing and we appreciate that my argument is is not is that not a

34
00:03:18.800 --> 00:03:23.320
valid argument regarding heaven or not clearly it's not you can't go to heaven

35
00:03:23.320 --> 00:03:28.400
by being good but here's what I'm saying about the person that is driven to do

36
00:03:28.400 --> 00:03:34.680
good with hopefully be accepted by a God or God's to let them in is that they

37
00:03:34.680 --> 00:03:40.080
know down deep inside there's got to be some form of

38
00:03:40.080 --> 00:03:48.800
reformation some form of change in my life to do something that will maybe outweigh

39
00:03:48.800 --> 00:03:58.720
my bed so that I can win in the end and I'm just pointing that out as a virtue

40
00:03:58.720 --> 00:04:05.840
this way they are admitting by their actions that they have fallen out of

41
00:04:05.840 --> 00:04:10.240
friendship with heaven and they're trying to find their way back they will look

42
00:04:10.240 --> 00:04:14.600
to works they will look to effort they will look to good deeds because they know

43
00:04:14.600 --> 00:04:19.920
that there's a vacancy inside of them God turns and says regarding the

44
00:04:19.920 --> 00:04:24.880
reality of heaven that we all need to take notice that he has given us enough

45
00:04:24.880 --> 00:04:29.600
evidence this is where we're at last time where the atheist can debate the

46
00:04:29.600 --> 00:04:35.640
existence of God in heaven but it's futile the evidence is overwhelming I'm

47
00:04:35.640 --> 00:04:39.400
pretty sick and tired of people saying without any knowledge whatsoever you

48
00:04:39.400 --> 00:04:43.560
can't prove the existence of God I believe you actually can prove the

49
00:04:43.560 --> 00:04:50.320
existence of God if you just apply reason and logic what I mean by that is this

50
00:04:50.320 --> 00:04:56.440
that there's a natural witness that we learned about that God has created what

51
00:04:56.440 --> 00:05:04.000
has been created brilliant in its obvious somebody and you can listen you can

52
00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:09.200
use this in books of evolution and argumentation like that of a creation

53
00:05:09.200 --> 00:05:13.760
without God they will say oh you have to do to believe in evolution is to look

54
00:05:13.760 --> 00:05:19.520
at an embryo and they will put up an embryo of a monkey and I challenge here

55
00:05:19.520 --> 00:05:23.280
now don't do it normally I need to pay attention but do it later you put up an

56
00:05:23.280 --> 00:05:28.280
embryo of a monkey put up an embryo of a giraffe put up the embryo of a human put

57
00:05:28.280 --> 00:05:34.040
up the embryo of a rhinoceros you pick it you have to guess what they all

58
00:05:34.040 --> 00:05:39.920
look the same have you seen them and the evolutionals will say that's proof

59
00:05:39.920 --> 00:05:43.880
that evolution is true and they walk away like the one the argument oh the exact

60
00:05:43.880 --> 00:05:49.840
opposite is true the exact opposite is true so how do you how do you figure

61
00:05:49.840 --> 00:05:57.800
because the same God who claims in the Bible to be the creator of all life when

62
00:05:57.800 --> 00:06:02.400
you look at the embryo of a monkey or of a giraffe or a human it does look

63
00:06:02.400 --> 00:06:08.760
exactly the same you know why because it came from the same mind it came from

64
00:06:08.760 --> 00:06:13.200
the same designer why mess with a good thing apparently it works if God wants

65
00:06:13.200 --> 00:06:17.920
to make a giraffe this is how it goes it means that he's the creator it doesn't

66
00:06:17.920 --> 00:06:22.680
mean that he didn't do it it means that his fingerprints are universally on

67
00:06:22.680 --> 00:06:29.760
everything and when those things go and move and develop out of the stage of

68
00:06:29.760 --> 00:06:34.800
looking the same are they quite different or what thankfully so

69
00:06:34.800 --> 00:06:41.440
remarkable creation creation screams so I believe in science right on then you

70
00:06:41.440 --> 00:06:45.680
should bow your knee to Jesus if you do the evidence is overwhelming we looked

71
00:06:45.680 --> 00:06:49.480
at that last time secondly we saw last time that there's the personal witness

72
00:06:49.480 --> 00:06:53.360
of consciousness we had some fun with that because we talked about how you and I

73
00:06:53.360 --> 00:06:58.880
as humans we have obviously we have a consciousness we dream we wonder we write

74
00:06:58.880 --> 00:07:10.720
poems we we do you know whatever music and and letters and expression that comes

75
00:07:10.720 --> 00:07:15.200
from your consciousness from the spiritual side of who you are and we made

76
00:07:15.200 --> 00:07:19.600
mention of the fact that there's no bodily part of your physical existence that

77
00:07:19.600 --> 00:07:24.280
has the conscience department it's not by your right ear it's not over on the

78
00:07:24.280 --> 00:07:28.200
right side the middle the deep part of your brain it's not down around your

79
00:07:28.200 --> 00:07:36.600
thyroid it's nowhere near your pancreas it doesn't exist because you are

80
00:07:36.600 --> 00:07:45.560
functioning a bio machine for this world it's called your body and we focus on it

81
00:07:45.560 --> 00:07:53.520
we draw attention to it we put the odor on it and older you get the more deodorant

82
00:07:53.520 --> 00:08:00.320
you put on it the more the cologne why because you're dying you got to cover up

83
00:08:00.320 --> 00:08:05.640
the stink why because this body is dying but then notice the consciousness stays

84
00:08:05.640 --> 00:08:10.960
and the Bible tells us and by the way science tells us that at the moment of

85
00:08:10.960 --> 00:08:17.320
death it's interesting life the world will say that life ends the Bible says

86
00:08:17.320 --> 00:08:28.880
life left and when you die will heaven be your home will you be going there is

87
00:08:28.880 --> 00:08:33.320
the question there's a natural witness that says I'm God believing me I've

88
00:08:33.320 --> 00:08:39.840
made all of this there's the personal witness of consciousness where you

89
00:08:39.840 --> 00:08:47.560
think God thoughts and you wonder about God remarkable you and I talked about

90
00:08:47.560 --> 00:08:53.840
the joys and the hopes and the expressions but being human we're also able to

91
00:08:53.840 --> 00:09:03.920
confess the conviction and the guilt and the shame that's in us the personal

92
00:09:03.920 --> 00:09:08.800
witness of consciousness and this is where we left off last time here we go we're

93
00:09:08.800 --> 00:09:14.360
diving into this now the third one is the divine witness of revelation so what do

94
00:09:14.400 --> 00:09:24.480
mean divine witness of revelation God's divine testimony witness revelation of his

95
00:09:24.480 --> 00:09:31.760
revealed will which is called the Bible the word of God so God has given

96
00:09:31.760 --> 00:09:36.200
us and he's given you three witnesses I love this because the Bible says before

97
00:09:36.200 --> 00:09:41.600
two or three witnesses the truth shall be established doesn't it say that

98
00:09:41.600 --> 00:09:49.760
there's the natural witness of God's existence there is your conscience the

99
00:09:49.760 --> 00:09:53.280
fact that you are a body soul and spirit and thirdly there's the revelation of

100
00:09:53.280 --> 00:09:56.200
God's word and you might say well pastor that's where I have our time I don't

101
00:09:56.200 --> 00:10:00.440
believe I think the Bible's a bunch of fairy tales that's what you believe that's

102
00:10:00.440 --> 00:10:05.760
what you think but on what basis have you come to that conclusion who told you

103
00:10:05.760 --> 00:10:11.440
that a professor at school a neighbor where did you read that how do you know

104
00:10:11.440 --> 00:10:16.520
this on what authority so we just asked these questions and why is this

105
00:10:16.520 --> 00:10:19.200
important because we're talking about the topic of heaven and hell ladies and

106
00:10:19.200 --> 00:10:23.920
gentlemen we need a bit we need to build a foundation as to why you should

107
00:10:23.920 --> 00:10:28.320
depart from your life that is taking you on the path of hell in destruction and

108
00:10:28.320 --> 00:10:33.120
you need to understand why you should get on the road and get the straight and

109
00:10:33.120 --> 00:10:38.640
narrow way Jesus said by the way that's not the that's not the boring and in

110
00:10:38.640 --> 00:10:43.920
tedious way the straight and narrow is the way that is what he calls it to be I

111
00:10:43.920 --> 00:10:49.880
got to argue with you it's the most exciting fulfilling way of all but you need

112
00:10:49.880 --> 00:10:54.640
to know and I understand this you have to understand me when I tell you this

113
00:10:54.640 --> 00:10:58.720
that the message you hear today you may not ever come back to this church again

114
00:10:58.720 --> 00:11:02.480
and I want you to know I'm doing this intentionally not to drive you away

115
00:11:02.880 --> 00:11:08.360
but to have this last opportunity to make sure that you know the truth okay that's

116
00:11:08.360 --> 00:11:14.760
some that's the great if I if I am called to show you love I'm loving you right

117
00:11:14.760 --> 00:11:19.480
now because I'm giving you the truth that you'll have to talk to God about even

118
00:11:19.480 --> 00:11:26.600
though you may hate me forever that's fine with me if you know the truth the

119
00:11:26.600 --> 00:11:29.720
number one thing out of the four I'm gonna give you four things right now the

120
00:11:29.720 --> 00:11:36.040
historicity of the Bible can you trust the Bible the historicity or the

121
00:11:36.040 --> 00:11:40.880
historical record of the Bible should I put my faith in what God has said in

122
00:11:40.880 --> 00:11:44.680
the Bible well let's look at the history and I'll give you a few because time

123
00:11:44.680 --> 00:11:48.640
doesn't allow me to go through much history history the Bible says let's talk

124
00:11:48.640 --> 00:11:54.320
about history the Bible says for example there was a king by the name of

125
00:11:54.320 --> 00:12:03.160
Nibbiannazer well forget about the Bible do museums and other forms of

126
00:12:03.160 --> 00:12:10.520
literature and evidence say that there was a king named Nibbiannazer yeah what

127
00:12:10.520 --> 00:12:13.920
about the Persian Empire the Bible says there's a Persian Empire is there

128
00:12:13.920 --> 00:12:18.480
evidence to substantiate the historicity of the Bible of course museums are

129
00:12:18.480 --> 00:12:24.080
filled with Persian artifacts from its governing Empire what about King David

130
00:12:24.080 --> 00:12:28.240
you ever heard about heard that guy before King David there used to be a

131
00:12:28.240 --> 00:12:33.680
program some years ago called the naked archaeologist he claimed to tell you

132
00:12:33.680 --> 00:12:37.600
the naked truth about all things that he wouldn't lie to you and he didn't lie

133
00:12:37.600 --> 00:12:43.200
but he had an atheistic background he's Jewish you some of you know

134
00:12:43.200 --> 00:12:46.920
whom I'm talking about and he does he's not fond of the Bible when he did a show

135
00:12:46.920 --> 00:12:51.640
on it he would make fun of the Bible and that's fine until when one time he

136
00:12:51.680 --> 00:12:57.400
did a program and he said there was no David if there was a David he was a little

137
00:12:57.400 --> 00:13:03.040
boy guys who created a myth and then he became a legend it's all trumped up

138
00:13:03.040 --> 00:13:10.840
stuff until archaeology which will touch on in a moment brought forth evidence

139
00:13:10.840 --> 00:13:18.340
that revealed not only David and met in writings of David but you can get on

140
00:13:18.340 --> 00:13:23.260
airplane right now fly 15 hours L.A. to Tel Aviv get out and we could drive to

141
00:13:23.260 --> 00:13:29.980
Jerusalem's about 45 minute drive up the mountain and before we get to the main

142
00:13:29.980 --> 00:13:36.140
city we'll stop at the old city of David it's been completely unearthed and you

143
00:13:36.140 --> 00:13:45.580
can walk through his rooms so then why are you not a believer there's also the

144
00:13:45.580 --> 00:13:54.940
archaeological evidence of God's revelation archaeology is a science you

145
00:13:54.940 --> 00:14:03.580
know and so you read an area in the Bible this is kind of fun all of us have

146
00:14:03.580 --> 00:14:07.780
heard of the Valley of Armageddon but you may not be aware of how incredibly

147
00:14:07.780 --> 00:14:14.900
beautiful it is it looks so much like almost identical to a giant version of

148
00:14:14.900 --> 00:14:19.780
you know where Monterey is Monterey here California Monterey you know

149
00:14:19.780 --> 00:14:24.020
Salinas you know where the grapes of wrath John Steinbeck remember that you

150
00:14:24.020 --> 00:14:27.940
don't talk about up there isn't it beautiful there's artichokes there's

151
00:14:27.940 --> 00:14:31.260
lettuce this side of the street this side of the street tomato that side of the

152
00:14:31.260 --> 00:14:35.080
street broccoli this side of the street asparagus it's amazing

153
00:14:35.120 --> 00:14:42.000
Miguel Armageddon where the last battle will be on earth beautiful did you know

154
00:14:42.000 --> 00:14:47.880
that there are archaeological places where we go to on our trips hits are for one

155
00:14:47.880 --> 00:14:55.440
or Miguel why because there's massive stables that have been on earth that are

156
00:14:55.440 --> 00:15:02.040
3,000 years old tons of them to hold hundreds and hundreds of horses and

157
00:15:02.040 --> 00:15:07.080
garages this is all underground garages that held hundreds and hundreds of

158
00:15:07.080 --> 00:15:14.600
chariots you know who own them good Solomon own them what did God say to

wisest man that's ever lived and yet God told him I'm gonna bless your life as

164
00:15:43.880 --> 00:15:48.400
long as you don't add to yourself horses because you're gonna trust in those

169
00:16:14.400 --> 00:16:27.000
wife one don't add to yourself women so what do you do when you go to

170
00:16:27.000 --> 00:16:35.220
McGuetto or our hits or and you dig you find stables and you find out that the

171
00:16:35.220 --> 00:16:43.360
Bible warned us that so how many I'm lost count how many wives did he have 700 was

172
00:16:43.360 --> 00:16:48.160
it over 700 and then that's not to mention two or three hundred concubines you

173
00:16:48.160 --> 00:16:55.720
have 700 women that are designated to be your wife and then you have 300 sex

174
00:16:55.720 --> 00:17:02.800
toys women that's all they're for you realize you do the math I don't know you

175
00:17:02.800 --> 00:17:05.560
can do the math I can't but you figure out man if you're gonna go in a date with

176
00:17:05.560 --> 00:17:08.880
Solomon if you're in that harem you might go out with him like once every eight

177
00:17:08.880 --> 00:17:20.480
years is that weird God said don't do that what did he do he did it he did it and

178
00:17:20.480 --> 00:17:28.760
when you dig archaeological evidence shows you so why aren't you not a believer

179
00:17:28.760 --> 00:17:33.440
eschatological arguments not gonna be labor this God writes the future down in

180
00:17:33.440 --> 00:17:39.120
advance it's called Bible prophecy and today one of the greatest growing

181
00:17:39.120 --> 00:17:48.000
superpowers in the world is Israel since 1948 a nation born twice exactly as

182
00:17:48.000 --> 00:17:53.360
the Bible said fourthly is what's known as the ontological argument this is

183
00:17:53.360 --> 00:17:57.320
the it's a big word but it means a reasonable things that are reasonably

184
00:17:57.320 --> 00:18:03.800
obvious things that are reasonably obvious an ontological argument is that

185
00:18:03.800 --> 00:18:09.600
it's reasonably obvious that these chairs were built for you to sit in you see

186
00:18:09.600 --> 00:18:14.320
this ridiculous why is it ridiculous it's so simple and obvious that it's

187
00:18:14.320 --> 00:18:22.280
ridiculous right so I'm gonna go I'm gonna go to Sacramento how are you gonna go

188
00:18:22.280 --> 00:18:27.440
there I'm gonna walk why would you walk when you can take a plane because you

189
00:18:27.440 --> 00:18:32.760
get there faster if you take a plane that's an obvious reality you'll get

190
00:18:32.760 --> 00:18:36.800
there faster if you take a plane there are things that are so obvious that

191
00:18:36.800 --> 00:18:41.560
they're there in front of you and it's crystal clear I shared this with you

192
00:18:41.560 --> 00:18:45.160
guys last week I think I get so confused because I teach differently it

193
00:18:45.160 --> 00:18:50.960
almost each service it depends on how much food I haven't have and by third

194
00:18:50.960 --> 00:18:57.080
service I start to lose my mind but this is obvious to me this is obvious that

195
00:18:57.080 --> 00:19:03.320
there's a god god the father god the son god the Holy Spirit we don't worship

196
00:19:03.320 --> 00:19:07.760
three gods we worship one god who reveals himself in three personalities three

197
00:19:07.760 --> 00:19:13.960
persons he's one god so don't get it yes you do yes you do because when I man

198
00:19:13.960 --> 00:19:20.400
is this what I said last week yeah remember when a man connects with a

199
00:19:20.400 --> 00:19:26.380
female in there's I saw some young faces some do my best I can right now when

three pregnancy you have three and one you have three and one you've got one

203
00:19:55.840 --> 00:20:04.360
inside the other inside the other it's amazing to me that's crystal clear it's

204
00:20:04.360 --> 00:20:10.200
