TRUNEWS with Rick Wiles - EMP Practice Run? Why Didn’t Norad Protect USA?

Episode Date: February 3, 2023

A massive Chinese spy balloon has been floating over Alaska, Canada, and the continental USA for days. Apparently, the folks at NORAD didn’t see it. General Milley and Secretary Lloyd Austin were too busy indoctrinating American troops to accept homosexuality, transgenderism, and CRT ideology to watch the skies of the USA.

A massive Chinese spy balloon has been floating over Alaska, Canada, and the continental USA for days. Apparently, the folks at NORAD didn't see it. General Milley and Secretary Lloyd Alston were too busy indoctrinating American troops to accept homosexuality, transgenderism, and CRT ideology. Doc Burkhardt is here with me to discuss the stunning failure of the U.S. Department of Defense

to protect the American people. Doc, that's how I see it. Let's put up the Fox News headline. I think most people here in America today know about this story. Chinese spy balloon over central U.S. will be in U.S. airspace for a few days, says the Pentagon. Doc, to me, this is just a stunning failure of the U.S. Department of Defense. Okay, that's the best, best case scenario. It's a stunning failure to protect us. Worst case, the Chinese buy-off of America has gone into the Pentagon, and the top Pentagon officials are working with the Chinese.

That's the worst case. Which one do you want? Either one is tragic. I mean, it's hard to even comprehend. No matter what story they throw out there, whether it's a Chinese civilian balloon or whatever it is, the fact that it was able to come across U.S. airspace and will be in U.S. airspace for days.

I mean, to me, that was the most shocking side of this today because there were reports earlier from Axios that were saying that the balloon was under control. And then later on, the Defense Department spokesperson came out and said, well, it's going to be in U.S. airspace for a few days. So there's conflicting stories even around what this is. But now the Chinese have admitted it's their balloon, but it's a civilian balloon. But everything in China that's owned by the CCP, you know, everything, every civilian is owned by the CCP. Precisely. So we've got a couple projected maps, maps of projected direction of this balloon.

Now, this one shows a more southern route, even possibly coming down across Florida in the coming days, taking across the Mississippi Delta and into Florida by Sunday night. Another one shows it going in a more southeastward direction, going into North Carolina. Either way, Doc, a Chinese spy balloon is floating across America, and nobody's doing anything about it. But even more troubling is this thing came across Alaska, Canada, and the northern United States. And nobody at NORAD saw it. I mean, it's just puzzling. The whole story is puzzling, Rick.

Okay, so NORAD put out a press release. This is number five. Okay, so it doesn't say much. Press release today from, or actually yesterday from NORAD, the United States government has detected and is tracking a high-altitude surveillance balloon that is over the continental United States right now. The North American Aerospace Defense Command continues to track and monitor it closely. Well, they do the same thing for Santa Claus.

Yes. track and monitor it closely. Well, they do the same thing for Santa Claus. The NORAD commander, General Glenn Van Herk, assesses the balloon does not present a military or physical threat to people on the ground at this time. The balloon is currently traveling at an altitude well above commercial air traffic. That's all NORAD has to say? How about General Van Hurk, how about you resign? You should resign. Absolutely, walk out. You failed to defend the American people.

What is the purpose of NORAD? You can't spot a balloon. How are you going to spot an ICBM? And the story is that the balloon was spotted by civilian aircraft. Right. And they reported it. They alerted NORAD to it. But it had been drifting across the North American continent for days.

And no one was aware of this. The whole purpose of NORAD is to defend the skies over North America. Right. So, Doc, I don't know which is more shocking, that there's a Chinese spy balloon here or the fact that NORAD didn't see it and nobody has taken action against it. And this is a very troubling question about bringing down the balloon. Because at first, you know, I first read that President Biden wanted to shoot it down and the Pentagon talked him out of it. And I thought, what is that about? The Pentagon doesn't want to bring down a Chinese spy balloon.

Why would that be? But then you start thinking about it may be more than a spy balloon. So Donald Trump obviously was on the side of shooting down the balloon, but then he shoots from the hip anyhow. I don't think he would think it through. But he's one of the first people out there today saying shoot it down.

But look at this next headline, Rick, because it even generates more questions. Pentagon won't rule out shoot down of maneuverable China spy balloon. It's not just floating around, Rick. It's maneuverable. It has a steering mechanism. Right. So the Chinese spy balloon wreaking havoc over U.S. airspace this week has moved on from Montana, but could continue lingering over the country for days, the Pentagon said on Friday.

And while we won't get into specifics in regards to the exact location, I can tell you that the balloon continues to move eastward and is currently over the center of the continental U.S., spokesman Air Force Brigadier General Patrick Ryder told reporters. That press conference is about noon today. Shortly after Ryder's briefing, Senator Roger Marshall of Kansas confirmed the balloon had been spotted over northeastern Kansas. Other sightings were reported over northwestern Missouri near the Kansas City area. Just for, since I grew

up in Missouri, I can tell you that Whiteman Air Force Base is about 45 minutes from Kansas City, where we have the B-2, all our B-2 bombers and everything. So now the balloon is at an altitude of about 60,000 feet. That's about 20,000 feet higher than commercial airspace, and is not believed to pose a potential risk to people while in the air, he said. Now, Ryder added the object is carrying a sizable payload of surveillance technology that could bring the potential for debris and the impact on civilians on the ground

or property damage if it were shot down. What is a sizable payload? That concerns me too, Rick. I mean, how big? Is it the size of a bread box or a truck? Well, I mean, how big are cameras? Well, cameras can be, you know, miniaturized and everything. Okay, so it's a sizable payload.

If it's a spy balloon and it has a sizable payload, then you're talking about massive cameras? Right. And for an object that you can see a balloon 60,000 feet up in the air and people have been spotting it, taking pictures of it and everything, the balloon itself is massive, carrying a sizable payload, and they don't seem to be bothered about this at all. It goes on to say that Reuters said

the Pentagon does not believe it is carrying weaponry. How would they know? Or concerning material, radioactive or otherwise. How do they know that, though? I'm going to go back again and say General Van Herc at NORAD should resign. Secretary of Defense Austin, at NORAD should resign. Secretary of Defense Austin, Lloyd Austin should resign. The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Mark Milley, should resign.

All three of you have failed to carry out your duties to protect the American people. We pay you to defend us. We pay you to protect us. We have no confidence right now. No confidence in the Department of Defense and the armed forces of the United States to protect the United States of America. You guys are so busy implementing your woke ideology, pushing homosexuality and transgenderism and having drag queen festivals on U.S. military bases and teaching CRT Marxist theology. You're so busy doing those things that you don't have time to watch for Chinese spy balloons. Of course, there's always the possibility that Marxist Milley is quite aware of the Chinese spy balloon. Maybe he allowed it to come into the country. We don't know. The other thing that the Pentagon is so busy doing is defending the border

of Ukraine. But they don't defend the borders of the United States of America. These men should resign. Yes, at the heart of it, Rick, the balloon violated our border. Where's the military? Well, they're as active in trying to control this situation as they are at the southern border.

They don't care anymore, Rick. and trying to control this situation. They are at the southern border. They don't care anymore, Rick. Well, Doc, I came across a quote. This is number 15. This is a paragraph inside a CNBC article. I mean, you had to read deep into the article to come to this paragraph. Let's read this one. It says,

instances of this activity have been observed over the past several years, including prior to this administration, said the senior administration official. We acted immediately

to protect against the collection of sensitive information. So keep that up there for just a moment. This means that there's been more than one Chinese spy balloon that's floated over the United States of America. It happened during the Trump administration. Maybe the Obama administration.

And how did we respond to those Chinese balloons then? We acted immediately to protect against the collection of sensitive information. In other words, they stopped it before it even violated U.S. airspace. Well, I don't know. No, I don't believe that, Doc. That's what I got from it. No, it said that we acted immediately to protect against the collection. In other words, they pulled the tarps over the missile silos. Okay, I can go with that.

In other words, they allowed the balloons to continue to float over the United States, but they took proactive steps on the ground to prevent the collection of data. That does not say that they stopped the balloons. It doesn't say that, does it? No. It says that they took actions to prevent the balloons from collecting important data. How long has this been going on, Rick? Apparently for years. And our Pentagon has allowed it to happen. Look, why did the Pentagon allow 9-11 to happen? You can have any theory you want about 9-11. I don't buy the official theory,

you know, a bunch of guys that couldn't fly planes came over here and hijacked. I don't buy that, okay? Let's not even go there. I don't buy it. But you're right. They didn't defend us. They didn't protect us. On 9-11 the hundreds of billions of dollars we gave

the Pentagon every year and they couldn't protect us. Why? Here we are again hundreds of billions of dollars to the Pentagon every year Why? Here we are again, hundreds of billions of dollars to the Pentagon every year, and they can't even spot a balloon. How are you going to spot a hypersonic missile?

How are you going to spot a tsunami torpedo? You guys are incompetent, or you're going to spot a tsunami torpedo. You guys are incompetent. Or you're bought off. Or you're so wrapped up into your left-wing ideology, you don't have time to defend the country. I'm sorry, I don't have anything good to say about these people right now. Milley, Lloyd Austin, and Van Herc need to resign. If they were Japanese,

the Asians would, the shame would be so great that they would resign because they've dishonored the country. And maybe even commit suicide over it. Well, how serious is it? Congressman James Comer,

I think this was a Fox interview, brought up the possibility that the balloon could be carrying biological warfare agents. Now he's asking the right questions. Representative James Comer of Kentucky, the chairman of the House Oversight Committee, blasted President Biden for a high-altitude balloon from China that is traveling over the continental U.S., not being shot down before it reached U.S. territory, speculating that it could have bioweapons.

We have an interview clip from Fox News here with Representative Comer. Let's watch. Republican Congressman James Comer of Kentucky, chairman of the House Oversight Committee, is in focus now. What is your greatest concern as we track something that is the size of three buses now that China says was taken by wind, wind that we can't substantiate? Well, I have concern this is going to be another example of the Biden administration's weakness on the national scale. I mean, you look at what happened in Afghanistan. That hurt the reputation of America's military strength. That hurt the reputation of our commander in chief. And now we have China

clearly playing games with the United States. This balloon never should have been allowed to cross over into the past the Pacific coast under the continental United States. Never should have happened. My concern is that the federal government obviously doesn't know what's in that balloon. Is that bioweapons in that balloon? Did that balloon take off from Wuhan? We don't know anything about that balloon. But the fact that this balloon was slowly making its way to the United States for several days and this administration never alerted anyone about the possibility of this balloon coming over the United States is very concerning. It's very concerning they didn't shoot it out of the air before it even reached the

continental United States. Oh, Chairman, let me stop you there. What do you mean never alerted anyone? You mean people on Capitol Hill were not being briefed, national security briefings about this giant object in the sky? No one on the House Oversight Committee. Now, I don't know about the Intelligence Committee with the Senate or the House, but I can tell you the overwhelming majority of members of Congress that I've spoken to in the last 24 hours had no idea about this. So this administration, again, is the least transparent administration in the history of America. This is very concerning. Unless China's working with the Biden administration to help find some of those missing documents that are scattered all over the United States, then this is unacceptable and this should not be allowed. And again, another

sign of weakness on the international stage by our commander in chief. Look, it's the reason that the balloon was wafting well above commercial and military airlines. Jennifer Griffin said it's flying at 60,000 feet and they've been tracking it for several days. And for your committee that you chair, no notice of this. That's there's so many problems inherent in that. We'll continue to cover it. You know, the one question that nobody will ask. I guess they're afraid to ask because they don't want to know the answer. Does China own Joe Biden? Does China own Joe Biden? Have we been sold out?

Do they own U.S. generals? Do they own the FBI? How deep is the Chinese penetration of America? China has police stations inside America. Did you know that? They have police stations on American soil. They're buying up American farms and ranches. They're buying up food processing plants. Have we been bought off? Are we already owned by China? I believe the answer is yes to that. Absolutely. And we've let it go on for years.

Doc, who was the Chinese general, was it Hao-Tien? I'm trying to remember, he was about 20-some years ago. He retired, he was an older general. We reported his Ten? I'm trying to remember. He was about 20 some years ago. He retired. He was an older general. We reported his speech a couple of years ago during the height of the coronavirus pandemic. It was a Chinese general at his retirement. He gave a speech in China and he said, we don't need nuclear weapons to take out America. We have solved the American problem. We will use biological weapons on the Americans. We will exterminate them.

And then when all the Americans are dead, we will then move the Chinese people into America. When Congressman Comer said, could there be biological weapons in this balloon, in this payload of this balloon? He's asking a very serious question. Of course, he wanted to shoot it down. Is this the reason the Pentagon didn't shoot it down?

Because they don't know what's in it or they do know what's in it? Right. So when I came in this morning here to the church, Doc asked me a question. He said, do you remember the late Dr. Peter Vincent Pry saying something to you about balloons? Well, I had interviewed Dr. Pry many times over 20 some years. He passed away last year. He was an expert on EMP, electromagnetic pulse attacks. And I started interviewing him back in early 2000s.

I don't recall the particular interview. Doc remembered it. He said, he told you in an interview that one way to deliver an EMP attack over America would be a high-altitude balloon. So we're not the only one. Doc's not the only one who remembered that today because the Washington Examiner ran this article, Dry Run, Balloons Called Top Delivery Platform for Nuclear EMP Attack. And in this article, they mention the late Dr. Prye. High-altitude balloons such as the one China has floated over mountain state military bases this week

are considered a key delivery platform for secret nuclear strikes on America's electric grid, according to intelligence officials. Spy balloons used by Japan to drop bombs during World War II are now far more sophisticated, can fly at up to 200,000 feet, evade detection, and can carry a small nuclear bomb that, if exploded in the atmosphere, would shut down the grid and wipe out electronics in a many statewide area. The threat of balloon-launched electromagnetic pulse attacks was warned about by a congressional EMP commission and inside the military several years ago. There was a 2015 report for the American Leadership and Policy Foundation and Air Force Major David Stuckenberg, one of the nation's leading EMP experts, wrote extensively about the threat balloons carrying bombs posed to national security. Now, using a

balloon as a WMD platform could provide adversaries with a palette of altitudes and payload options with which to maximize offensive effects against the U.S., he wrote. Now, he wrote in the report, Peter Pry, a former CIA analyst and member of the Congressional Commission to assess the threat to the U.S. from EMP attack, stated, Imagine the consequences of a balloon EMP attack that damages and destroys electronic systems at the speed of light within an EMP field with a radius of hundreds of kilometers. The eastern grid generates 75% of U.S. electricity and supports most of the population, Prye wrote. Virtually any nuke detonated anywhere over the eastern grid will collapse the entire eastern grid, not just the area within the EMP field because of cascading failures that will ripple outward.

So basically, if there's an EMP attack here in the U.S., it doesn't have to be over the entire continental U.S. A limited field EMP attack would have simply the same staggering results as a continent-wide one because there'll be a cascade across the grid. The entire grid will go down. And besides that, if you just take out, let's say the East Coast, you take out everything. That's right. Then tens of millions of people will be literally cast into the Stone Age overnight. What does that do to the rest of the country?

Well... You have mass chaos. That's right. Migration on foot of tens of millions of people trying to get out of that region. So we don't know right now if there is an EMP, a nuclear device in this balloon. What we know, the Pentagon says it has a massive payload. Okay. A payload of what?

You're telling me it's just a big giant camera? And that's why they're not going to shoot it down. The Pentagon is saying we're not going to shoot it down because this massive payload may fall down. The debris will fall on towns and cities below. Okay. You mean metallic debris? Or are you talking about nuclear radiation debris? Are you talking about biological warfare agents? What does the Pentagon know is in that balloon? And why didn't they stop it when it was over the Pacific? How long does it take a balloon to get from China to Alaska? Is anybody watching the skies? Or are they all watching porn at the Pentagon?

I would say they're watching more porn at NORAD than they are the skies. People need to get mad about this. We're really close to World War, well, World War III has already started. We're really close to the end of World War III. The end is when the nukes are used. We've already started World War III. It started last February. And here we are now today in recent days, this discovery of a Chinese spy balloon over America, and nobody has done anything about it. And nobody knew it was coming our way. That's the most shocking thing to me. This next one is a PDF from the American Leadership and Policy Foundation. That's the article that Stuckenberg and Pry are quoted in where they talk about this.

So when we had Dr. Pry on before Rick, he has decades of experience in this area and says, we are so susceptible to an EMP attack. I mean, it's probably our weakest point right now. That's right. I want to turn our attention, while we're on the topic of China, I want to go to another story. I saw this out of the South China Morning Post in Hong Kong. Chinese military announces YJ-21 missile abilities in social media posts

read as a warning to the United States amid tension in Taiwan Strait. And then another story based on the South China Morning Post. This is the Eurasian Times. China hails its YJ-21 hypersonic ship-launched missile

that can strike enemy ships without being intercepted. I ask the question again. If the U.S. Pentagon, if NORAD can't see a big stinking balloon in the sky. The size of three school buses. You can't see a balloon floating across the Pacific, across Alaska, Canada, and the United States. How are you going to see a hypersonic missile coming

at Mach 10? You can't see it. You're not able to defend this. You can't even defend this from a balloon. I'm mad about it. The Pentagon has so much stinking money. They always want more money. But you can't even protect this from a balloon.

We've got about two minutes here. Let's jump into this really quick, Doc. Well, in what is being seen as a subtle message to the U.S. amid rising tensions, the PLA has publicly endorsed its anti-ship hypersonic missile capabilities. It says the unmatchable capabilities of the YJ-21 missile were highlighted in an article published by the official Weibo account of the PLA, and they did that just a few days ago. The article that was widely read on Chinese social networking site said that China's YJ-21 has a terminal speed of Mach 10, cannot be intercepted by any anti-missile weapon systems in the world,

and can launch deadly strikes against enemy ships. And let's have categorized this development as a direct message for the U.S. Mach 10. Ten times the speed is down, and our military can't even spot a balloon. A slow-moving balloon. Yeah.

This is not good, folks. This is not good. Russia tasked news agency Russian frigate to launch a Serkan missile during international drills. These drills are with China. Yes, and this is their hypersonic missile. That's right. And I want to go on to the next one before we run out of time.

Defense News, U.S. pledges longer-range, small-diameter bombs for Ukraine. Oh, this is going to go over really well in Moscow. We're giving Zelensky bombs that will reach into Russian territory. And I'm going to tell you right now, we're pushing Putin to the edge. Putin is, you're pushing him against the, and he's going to strike. And he's doing joint drills with the Chinese, and the Chinese are getting ready for this attack also. While America just wallows around in its sin and iniquity and rebellion against God, they don't even see the armies forming to come against her.

And the preachers in America are blind and silent and they're not warning their flocks to get ready for world war to be fought on American soil. We're in a mess and we need Jesus Christ. He is our only hope. We have to cry out to almighty God, not to destroy Russia, not to destroy China. We need to save them.

But more than that, America needs saved. America has turned against God. We've turned against the Bible. We've turned against Jesus Christ. We've turned against his holy church. And we need help more than anybody on this planet right now. And Jesus Christ is our only hope. Doc and I are going to change hats and we're going to become Bible teachers for the next 30 minutes as we watch Morning Manor. Here we go.

Welcome to Morning Manor. Jesus Christ is the living bread that came down from heaven. Anybody who eats this bread will live forever. Nourish your soul each weekday with Morning Manor. Here are your Bible teachers, Rick Wiles and Doc Burkhart. Well, welcome to Morning Manna. I'm Rick Wiles. Jesus Christ is the living bread that came down from heaven, and we feed on Christ our Lord.

Jesus said, He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. Morning manna's mission is to make ready a people prepared for the Lord. An angel appeared to Zacharias, a devout and upright Jewish priest. He and his wife Elizabeth were elderly. They had no children because Elizabeth's womb was barren. One day, while Zacharias was in the temple ministering unto the God of Israel, an angel of the Lord appeared to him and said that his wife would give birth to a son. His child was to be named John.

Speaking of the future ministry of John the Baptist, the angel said, And many of the children of Israel shall he Baptist, the angel said, and many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God and he shall go before them in the spirit and power of Elijah to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children and the disobedient

to the wisdom of the just to make ready a people prepared for the Lord. God did not send John the Baptist to make everybody ready for the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. John the Baptist's mission was to make ready a people, not all people, not any people. He was anointed to make ready a people, a specific group of people, the elect. How would he make them ready for the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ? He was to prepare them. When the elect was prepared, they would be ready for the Lord. At the time of the first advent of Jesus Christ, God's people, the Jews at that time, were not ready for the Messiah. God sent John the Baptist in the spirit and power of Elijah

to make ready God's people so that they would be prepared for the arrival of Messiah Jesus Christ. Now we have the same situation today. Many of God's people, the Christians, are not ready for the second advent of Jesus Christ. They too must be made ready so that they will be prepared for the arrival of King Jesus on the day of the Lord. Now, I believe that in this hour that you and I are living, I believe God is unleashing a mighty wind to blow over across tens of thousands of churches around the world. I believe he's sending forth hundreds of thousands of new John the Baptist to make ready a people prepared for the Lord. Jesus teaches us in parables. In one parable, he answered a question asked by Peter. And Jesus said, and the Lord said, who then is that faithful and wise steward whom his Lord shall make ruler over his household to give them their portion of meat in due season? Blessed is that servant whom his Lord, when he cometh, shall find so doing. Jesus said that when he returns,

he expects to find his preachers and teachers serving the right spiritual food at the right time, meet in due season. What type of spiritual meal should be served in this season in 2023? What does the church need to hear? What nourishment does the church need to hear? What nourishment does the church need to accomplish in order to accomplish God's will in 2023? I believe God's preachers and teachers must make

ready a people prepared for the second coming of Jesus Christ. And that's my passion and my purpose to make you ready so that you are prepared for the second advent of King Jesus to Christ, the Savior of the world. We are making the remnant ready for the second coming of King Jesus. And I hope you will become part of this exciting work of God in 2023. Now for days, Doc. Burkhardt and I have been talking about the end time remnant church that can be seen in the book of Daniel. And there will be, I believe, a mighty army of believers who will remain true and loyal to Jesus Christ in the last days. They shall endure to the end and they shall be saved. This end time remnant church will resist the antichrist. He will make war with the saints and that war has

already started. It will intensify in the years ahead. The body of Christ must be strengthened to withstand the assaults from the antichrist and to press against his kingdom and squeeze him. And I also say unto thee that thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it. Now too often Christians think that Matthew 16, 18 means that hell will attack the church, but not when. Well, gates don't attack anything. Gates are meant to hold back invaders.

The gates of Hades will not be strong enough to prevail against the victorious church that's on the attack. Jesus did not say the gates of Gehenna, the place of eternal torment. Hades is the shadow world of the dead. In Isaiah 38 verse 10, the prophet said, I shall go to the gates of the grave. In Revelation 6, 8, death rides upon a pale horse and Hades rides behind him. In Revelation 20, verse 14, death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. What am I saying in this?

The true church of God will be in a war until the end. There will be casualties and collateral damage. It will be messy. Nevertheless, the true church of God will prevail against the gates of Hades. The true church of God will be victorious when King Jesus Christ arrives to crush the church's enemies. In the meantime, the church of God must get busy equipping the saints to fight today's battles and to prepare them to fight tomorrow's spiritual wars.

At this time, I want to bring into the program Dr. Raymond Burkhart, and he and I will talk about Daniel's vision. And we're going to start with Daniel 7-7. Doc? If you've been following along with us, this is a review first. After this, I saw in the night visions and behold a fourth beast, terrible and powerful and strong exceedingly. And it had great iron teeth. It devoured and break in pieces and stamped the residue with its feet. And it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it and it had 10 horns. So this is the description of this incredible,

I mean, the imagery that's there. It's fearsome. It seems overwhelming. It seems like nothing can defeat this. Nothing can conquer this. There's a world empire that will grip the world before Christ returns. And that's what

the fourth beast is. That's what it is. The only way it can be described is as a monster. Right. It has no redeeming values. It has no goodness in it.

It is a monster. It is a world, it's not just a government. This beast, this monstrous creature that shall take control of the world. It's more than just a government. It's an economic system. It's a religious system.

It's a social system. It's a scientific system. It's an educational system. It's a healthcare system. It's all of civilization conformed to the image of the beast. It will drive human beings to change the way they think, the way they speak, the way they act, the way they interact with others, so that every human will conform to the image of this monster, this world system that will take control of the world.

And if you refuse to conform, it's coming after you with teeth of iron. It will be vicious and cruel, and it will devour many. This thing is going to be Satan personified. The Antichrist, this son of perdition, this man that rules the world at the top of this food chain. These people in this system will have a burning hatred for Jesus Christ, for his saints, and for his church, and for righteousness. It won't be that they just make jokes and ridicule Christians. They will hunt them down. There will be a day that they literally will have a hunting season for Christians. It will become that bad. Jesus

said, if the days were not shortened by God the Father, no flesh would survive. This beast is going to make war against the church. What this ministry is doing, we are blowing the bugle. We're saying, wake up. Come on, church, wake up. Snap out of it. The end is near. Christ is coming. Get your head out of the videos. Get your head out of social media.

Wake up. Get into the word of God. Get into prayer. Pay attention to what's going on around you. Christ is coming. Get ready. Get your children ready. Get your family ready. It's going to come quickly. It's going to come suddenly and unexpectedly.

That is our calling. That is our purpose. I tell people, I'm your spiritual no-dos. I'm not going to let you go to sleep. Obviously, if you've figured this out, I'm not like other preachers on TV. I got a different type of personality. I'm here to wake you up. I'm here to shake you, get you out of bed and say, the time is late. Get up, get up, get up. Christ is coming. Get ready. Get your uniform on. He's coming. We've got work to do. So we just looked at what this beast is going to be, how it's going to appear, teeth of iron to devour. But Doc, there's also more to this story. That's right. Continuing in that particular vision of Daniel, starting in verse number nine, just a couple of verses later, he says,

I beheld till thrones were placed, and one that was ancient of days did sit. His raiment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like pure wool. His throne was fiery flames, and the wheels there of burning fire. A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him. Thousands of thousands ministered unto him, and 10,000 times 10,000 from before him. Thousands of thousands ministered unto him and 10,000 times 10,000 stood before him. The judgment was set and the books were opened. This is the final day that we're talking about here.

I beheld at that time because of the voice of the great words which the horn spake. I beheld even till the beast was slain, talking about that fourth beast, and its body destroyed and it was given to be burned with fire. And as for the rest of the beast, their dominion was taken away,

yet their lives were prolonged for a season and a time. So when we're in Daniel chapter seven here, we're looking at several different visions, night visions that Daniel's having. They're not necessarily in chronological order. They're just, he's sharing what he's seeing. This is one vision I saw here. I'm going to share another vision here with you.

The vision that he just described here is that, yes, there's going to be kingdoms that are going to rise up through the period of time. And then at the end of time, there's going to be a global kingdom, a beast kingdom, that fourth beast kingdom that'll rule with teeth of iron and break to pieces and trample underfoot everything but around the whole world. There hasn't been a global kingdom yet. And so that's yet to be. But on that final day, God himself, God himself will crush that fourth beast system and it will be judged that very day. Amen. Amen. That's the good part. That's the good part. That's the shouting part. You know, the angel later in the book of Daniel, the angel of the Lord told Daniel,

write this stuff down in a book and then seal up the book. The book will be sealed. And its meaning will not be understood until the appointed time, the time of the end. If you and I are, if we're living at that appointed time, the time of the end, then the things in Daniel's prophecies are going to start making sense.

There's been a lot of teaching about it over centuries. But if it was not the appointed time, then it was just the opinions of men. But there will be a day that it will be the revelation of God. And the revelation of God will supersede the opinions of men. Great scholars of the Bible, great preachers of the Bible who have talked about Daniel, but all their opinions will be pushed aside when the revelation of God comes to the church about the meanings of these prophecies. But I'll tell you, Doc, I know what I get excited about. Reading Daniel 7 with verse 9.

Man, I get excited about my papa. Yes. I just get excited. He's my papa. He's Almighty God. What does your daddy look like, Rick? Yeah. Well, I'll tell you.

His hair is white as snow. The hair of his head was like pure wool. He sits on a throne of flames with wheels. He's got fiery wheels on his throne, man. He's got a hot rod for a throne. Tell me a boy that doesn't want to have a dad that has wheels on his chair. That are on fire. Yeah.

Fiery wheels. I mean, this is your father. He's awesome. He's absolutely awesome. Our heavenly father. And just to get a picture of him. Right. And do people sell themselves short on understanding how great their Heavenly Father is?

I don't think they meditate on it. I mean, talk. A fiery stream issues and came out before him. Like, he's just walking down the hallway and there's fire coming out. I mean, it's just wherever he goes. There's stuff happening wherever he goes. Imagine, just picture your heavenly father

and he's walking down main street of heaven and there's fire coming out from in front of him there's there's all kind people angels bowing down holy holy he's just walking from one end of town to the other and all this activity is going on around him that's a normal day with god right that's your heavenly father and and we get in situations here on earth and we think, does God know about me? Does he know I'm in this trouble? Does he care? Listen, get those thoughts out of your mind. Get this into your mind. This is who your Papa is. That's right. If he's this great, if he's this tremendous, I guarantee you, he knows about your trouble. And I guarantee you, he knows how to get you out of that trouble. Just start praising him, start glorifying him, start lifting him up. And

the next thing you know, you will be caught up. Your spirit will just be caught up in the glory of God and your problems will just start melting away. Get your eyes fixed on God. He's your father. And just glorify him. But this is who's coming. When he stands up, everybody else falls down. Well, everyone except one. It says later on there in verse 12 that one, you know, this little horn,

the fourth beast, the man of sin, even right up, so you've got the God of fire, the God with fiery wheels, and yet this man of sin is still speaking great words of pride and arrogance before the great God of heaven. So what happens to him? Well, you don't talk that way in Father's house. No, no, no.

Verse 11, then I watched because of the sound of the boastful words which the horn was speaking Then I watched because of the sound of the boastful words, which the horn was speaking. I watched even until the beast was slain and his body destroyed and given to the burning flame. And for the rest of the beast, they had their dominion taken away. Yet their lives were prolonged for a season and a time. Goes on in verse 13. I saw in the night visions. And this is a separate vision now. And behold, there came with the clouds of heaven one like unto a son of man. And he came even to the ancient of days

and they brought him near before him. Doc, let's go back to that. Let's go back to that. Daniel saw in this vision someone that looked like the Son of Man. Right. And he came to the Ancient of Days. Who are we seeing here, Doc?

Well, obviously, the New Testament identifies him as Jesus. This is Jesus that we're talking about here. Jesus identified himself as the Son of Man numerous times in the Gospels and throughout the New Testament when we talk about the return of Jesus Christ. How do they identify him?

They identify him as coming with the clouds of heaven. Jesus obviously was reinforcing the idea that he is the Son of Man that we're reading in Daniel chapter seven, verse 13. And the apostles reinforced this idea, Rick, by saying, whoever is coming on the clouds of heaven in Daniel chapter seven, that is the Lord Jesus Christ coming back.

That's him in Daniel chapter seven, verse 13. And it goes on to say in verse 14, there was given him dominion and glory and a kingdom that all peoples, nations and languages should serve him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion which shall not pass away and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.

Well, Jesus Christ has already been given a kingdom. That's right. I believe this was jesus's arrival uh after the ascension he's coming back to heaven yes and how's he coming he came back to heaven and the clouds of glory he's coming back out of heaven uh on clouds of glory that's right and he has a kingdom and we're in the kingdom of God now. You don't enter the kingdom of God when you die or after the Lord comes back. I think a lot of Christians think that.

Right. Well, I won't get into the kingdom of heaven until I die. No. Or, you know, after the second coming. No, you're in the kingdom of God now. Right.

You're in the kingdom of heaven. The kingdom of heaven is the kingdom of God on earth. That's right. The kingdom of heaven will be no more once Christ comes back because we'll be fully in the kingdom of God. Right. The Bible says that we have been transported from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of light. You're in

the kingdom now. It's not some future place. It's not a thousand year millennial kingdom that you have to wait for. You have been transported into the kingdom. You know what a kingdom is? First of all, it's the king's domain, kingdom, king's domain. You have to have a king. You have to have a domain, territory. You have to have a population. You have to have laws. You have to have language. You have to have customs. All these things come together to form a kingdom. When you are born again,

when you renounce the works of the devil, when you tell Satan to get out of your life and not come back, that you are now believing on the Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior, and you're born again, and you are immersed in water and baptized in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. You are born again, and you're brought into

the holy church of God, and you are sealed by the Holy Spirit, and there ain't no devil that can get you away from God. No. You're sealed by the Holy Spirit. And there ain't no devil that can get you away from God. No. You're sealed by the Holy Spirit. And your salvation is secure when you are in Christ. If you are in Christ, your salvation is secure. Once you are in the kingdom of God,

it's now your obligation to live according to the laws of the kingdom of God. Where do we find the laws of the kingdom of God? The Sermon on the Mount. Jesus gave the laws of the kingdom in the Sermon on the Mount. Are you keeping the laws? Are you obeying the laws? Obedience is proof of submission. If you are submitted to Christ the King, then you are obeying him. And your obedience is the proof of your submission. If you don't obey the King, if you don't keep the Sermon on the Mount, then you're a lawbreaker in the kingdom. And what happens to lawbreakers? Well, they send the law out for you. That's right. You don't want God sending the law out for you because you're a lawbreaker. Look, what this ministry is doing, we're teaching people, obey the king, obey the

Christ, resist the antichrist. Obey the Christ, resist the Antichrist. It's real simple. Two things, obey the Christ, resist the Antichrist. That's really all you got to get down until the end. Do those two things. Obey the Christ, resist the Antichrist. Doc, let's keep going because I get excited about this because this is the kingdom. Now, I believe this passage that we just looked at was the coronation day in heaven where Jesus arrived after his ascension. This is it. He's coming before the Father. The kingdom is being handed to Jesus Christ.

That's the beginning of the kingdom right there. Now, notice something else supreme occurs in verse 18. Daniel 7, verse 18. Daniel chapter 7, verse 18. But the saints of the Most High shall take the kingdom and possess the kingdom forever, even forever and ever. Wait a minute here. I thought Jesus was the forever king. Isn't that what we're all taught?

Yes, and he is. He is the king. He is the king. He is the king. And yet, somehow, saints are given the kingdom. They possess the kingdom forever and ever. Jesus Christ, the Son of God, he returned from earth victorious. Yes.

He defeated death, hell, and a grave. He had the keys in his hand. He whipped the devil. He returned to heaven, his home base, and presented the kingdom to his father. Yes. When Christ comes back and he gathers his church, the father is going to give the kingdom to the saints. It's mind-boggling. It is.

And then it gets even gooder. This old earth disappears. They burn it up. They burn up the whole cosmos, the whole universe, every planet, everything, the whole, all the solar systems, the comets, the asteroids, the black holes, everything get burned up. God makes a new heaven and a new earth.

He leaves the old heaven. You want to know why he leaves the old heaven? Because it reminds him of Lucifer's sin. Because it was in heaven where the first sin occurred. Lucifer sinned in heaven. He doesn't even want to remember old heaven. Behold, I make all things new. He's going to do a new work, a new creation.

He's still the creator. He's going to create again a new heaven and a new earth and a new Jerusalem. Why do you people want to live in that old Jerusalem for a thousand years? Why? He's going to give you a new Jerusalem. I don't care about old Jerusalem, other than I want the people that are there to be saved. But I don't want to live in that old place. I want to live in new Jerusalem. He's going to give us a new earth and a new heaven and a new Jerusalem. He's going to give us a new earth and a new heaven and a new Jerusalem. And then this was the greatest part of all. Almighty God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,

they pack up everything in heaven and they move to the new earth. He redirects his mail. He starts getting his mail in new Jerusalem. Heaven's not his home anymore. He moves. He moves in with the kids. This is awesome. It's awesome. God the Father moves in with the kids. Which is what he desired in the very beginning. In the garden. It's what he wanted in the garden. He wanted to live in the garden with Adam and Eve, but they sinned against him. He's going to get it. He's going to win. All these years he's been plotting and planning and moving and maneuvering. He's going to get his children back in the garden and he's going to move in with them so he can fellowship with them and laugh and have fun and just enjoy his sons and daughters forever and ever.

It's not a thousand year kingdom. It's forever. It's a kingdom that shall have no end. And folks, it's so close. It is coming. It's coming soon. And I feel it. I've got an excitement in me about the arrival of Jesus Christ and the kingdom

of God in its full manifestation. And I want the church to come alive and start telling everybody, you need to repent of your sins and believe on Jesus and get baptized and get ready. The Lord Jesus Christ is coming and all of this whole world is going to disappear and we're going to stand before the judgment seat of Christ and everyone's going to be given their rewards for what they did in their bodies on this earth. It is time to preach an old-fashioned gospel. Repent, believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, be baptized, and you shall be saved. My friend, Doc and I love you. We care about you and we hope you come back every day and watch Morning Manor.
