That souls will be saved and the Church will be given great ability to keep doing your
works. We are to overcome. This means that we have to receive your root into our souls,
into our spirits, and then we have to keep doing, keep doing your work to the end of
our lives. We must do that so that we can have the power over the nations. We have to
have the same faith as you did in order to do the works that you do to the end. Father,
we ask it in Jesus' name and everyone says amen. Amen.
Christ the Lord. So, verse 27 says, and He shall rule them with a rod of iron. It's like
if you're a sheep, or you can't let your sheep run into somebody else's pasture or go
down the hill, you have to herd them. You have to be a shepherd to them. You have to
move them into a group and keep them there. If there's a sick one, you have to isolate
them and spend a little more time with them. It's not a shoddy, slip-shod type situation.
The Lord instructs us on how to do these things to rule with the rod of iron. As the
vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers. If anyone gets out of orders, their
opinions or ideas and their methods, they all have to be broken like a potter's vessel.
Everybody has to be broken to the point where they receive what the Lord says because what
you think, what your opinions are, they don't mean scooby-doo. They don't mean anything. Okay,
because the Bible, the Word of God is supposed to be, it is predominant because it built everything
in the world, it created everything. And He says, this is the way I received it from my father,
and this is the way I want you to do it. Even as I received it from my father, I want you to
receive it from my father. And if you say, well, I see him kind of wishy wise, you're not going to
be received by the Lord if you have that kind of attitude. You have to be strong, powerful, and
you're not put the word of God is. So you need to use the word of God as the rule and show the
world that that's the rule you go by. And that's the rule they have to go by if they want to be a
member of the church. The body of Christ is a powerhouse. All right, you don't deviate from Him,
or here won't be in the kingdom of heaven. Now, verse 28, and I will give him the morning star.
Well, the morning star, when you see that in the sky, that's one of the most refreshing things in
the world. The morning star is easy to see, and this star will arise in your heart, and it's
unmovable. The word of God is unshakable. You're movable. You're shakeable. But the word of God
is not. And that's why you have to adopt the word of God into you so that you are unmovable,
that you're unshakable, that your firm 100% firm in all the things that the Lord says in your
belief. Then the day star has risen in, and I will give you the morning star. I'll give you
the ability to be able to be seen and heard throughout the world, because if you're 100% on my word,
then I will exalt you. But if you have any reservations, I will diminish you. You'll be diminished.
All right, now, verse 29. He that has an ear, an ear to hear what God says, and Jesus is the
Almighty. Let him hear what the word of God, the Spirit, the bread of life, says unto the churches.
Now we're going into chapter three. Take a little swag of copy here.
All right, now, and unto the angel of the church in Sardis. Right. These things say if he
that hath the seventh Spirit, well, who's the one that has the seventh Spirit? That's Jesus,
amen? It said so early in the first chapter, the seventh Spirit of God.
These things are said by him that has the seventh Spirit of God and the seventh stars.
Well, what are the seventh stars? They're the seventh angels, are they not?
Did the Lord make that clear? All right. So get that into your skull so that when you're
witnessing the people, you remember the things. You know, you can take some people in this church
and other churches that have been going to church for close to 40 years, and they can't remember
the things of God because obviously the things of God are not important to them.
And therefore they have to rot a by hand. They just toss to and fro by every wind of doctrine.
But we need to get the real doctrine into our hearts and souls, our spirits, and our minds.
So he has the seventh Spirit of God. And one of the Spirit is the Spirit of the fear of the Lord.
If you don't fear God, you're lacking the main Spirit. And because the whole duty of man is to
fear God, to have the Spirit of fear of the living God on you, to fear God and also to keep his commandments.
And so I know these states, these that have the seven angels of the seven churches and the seven
lamp stands. I know your works. I know everything. I know the way you think. I know what you've got
up your sleeve, what you're trying to do. When you go someplace, maybe you're trying to attract
some attention of the opposite sex. And you call yourself, but for sure I know what you're up to.
I know what's up to your sleeve. Remember this, write this in your heart. Get this into your mind
and your heart and your spirit and your soul and your entire being. I know what you're doing.
Some of you people, I know the good things that you're doing that I'll have say name.
Your name is a Christian. People think you're a Christian that they'll live us that you are
alive, you think, and you are dead. You think you're alive, but I know your works. I know what's up
your sleeve. You have a name. You know, I'm a Christian. You don't do the work. So that's how
people tell if you're a Christian, not just because you say words are cheap. Your words,
but the word God is powerful and sharp. It's a double age sword. Is it you have a name that you live
and you're dead. First to be watchful and strengthen the things which remain. That's what I'm saying.
Let's get that solid rock in you. Amen. Let's get the Holy Spirit. That's the rock of ages.
Be watchful. Watch out. Now don't forget to be watchful because this is a command here.
He didn't say, well, you should be watchful. It says be watchful. When you're reading the Lord
word, let the commandments enter your spirit because that's the second half of the whole duty of man.
It is one. Fear him. And number two, keep his commandments. Well, his commandments is be watchful.
Be watchful. Wake up, dead one. You're dead to the word of God. Be watchful and strengthen
the things which remain. Well, what remains? Well, you know, put on the whole arm of God because
there's a lot of things that are involved with the arm of God. First you've got to know you're saved.
Not just think you're saved and then also that you're dead. You're dead to the world of the
resurrected ones. You have to remember these things. You have to penetrate these into your system.
Your entire system in order to be pleasing to the Lord because I know what's up here.
Sleeve. Okay, I know that you're bored and you're boring to me also. You know, the
Christian life is the most exciting life in the world. There isn't anything that could be more
excited because you never know what's going to happen. Every day God is if you're in the spirit,
if you're not in the spirit, then you're none of his. Ha ha ha ha ha. Are you in the spirit of the
Lord, the word of God, the blood of Jesus? So if you are, well, then you're going to keep this
commandment. Watch, be watchful and strengthen the things which remain. How do you strengthen
is to be watchful and look at yourself in the mirror, the word of God and see what's lacking
and strengthen everything that's lacking. Amen. It's plain that are ready to die. In other words,
I'm saying that a lot of you people out there that call yourself Christians are ready to become
anti-Christ. You're ready to throw in the town. Now watch it. Watch out because I'm saying this
not because I want to keep you busy. But I'm concerned about if you don't do what I'm telling
you, it keeps a commandment. One of these days you're going to be retching and screaming and
begging and pleading with God. Oh my God. I didn't realize. Don't say you didn't realize,
he said for you to be watchful and strengthen the things which remain that are ready to die.
You're dead. Much of you is already dead. So you have to start strengthening the things that
remain because you're in danger of losing your soul. Your soul will be screaming out for pain
throughout eternity. For I have not found thy works perfect before God. Well, you know,
Charles Stanley says no one's perfect. That means Charles Santa that no one's going to him because
it says that you must be perfect. For I have not found thy works perfect before God. And this is
Jesus saying that. Well, if you haven't found those works perfectly, do you think that the
Lord just is trying to figure out something to say to people so he can keep a conversation going?
Now this is the way it is. You must be perfect or mechanical. Be a spotter. Blimish on you.
There's not going to be any lethargic people, bored people. If you're bored with the Lord here,
you're going to be bored with him in heaven. That's why I won't let you in. He can't stand
people that are bored with him. Do you get it? All right. So for I have not Jesus, I and Jesus
have not found your works, especially on a daily basis, perfect before God. And you see, I don't
know what I know. Everything that's up your sleeve and in your heart and in your mind,
in your body, I know everything. You can't kid me. And I'm not kidding you. I'm telling you the truth.
I am the truth. Verse three. Remember there for how thou hast received and heard. Go back to the
pit that you were dug out of. Start remembering how you first heard the gospel and how excited
you were then and how you really were full of zeal. Remember how thou hast first received and
then heard and hold fast. I mean, this is a commitment. I want you to hold that white rock
to hold the solid rock Christ Jesus, the Word of God in you, because this is your life.
Is your life so important to you? You're each in life. You're immortal life that you would not
hold on to it. You know, people have diamonds and all kinds of silver and gold and man, they
guard it with their lives. But your soul is far more important than silver and gold and diamonds
and rubies and sapphires because this is the dressing room in this world for you to be able to go to
the heaven. And these are the instructions that I'm giving you and you need to hold on to your
salvation more than you would silver and gold, in precious metals and repent.
Look, you're dead, he said. Repent. Get back to me. I don't care what you've done or anything,
just at least try a champ to get into heaven or there's no chance for you. There's no so
repent if therefore thou shalt not watch. Watch is very important. I will come on the as a thief
and thou shalt not know what our eye will come upon thee. So a lot of people think, well, I'm
gonna live until the Lord comes back and everything. No, if you're not repenting, if you're not
having it in your heart and soul to repent, if you think this is something that you can take your
time to do, well, yeah, we'll eventually and all this, you're already dead. So what does that mean?
It means that he could come at any hour, not at the end of time. He could come in a minute,
five minutes, maybe two or three minutes and take you right out and cast you into hell.
So that I will come upon thee. I know what our eye and you're not gonna know, you shall not know
what hour I will come upon you. Then you say, oh God, no, here he comes and he says, oh God, no.
Well, Lord, I didn't know. If you didn't know, don't you remember when Tony was telling you to watch
and he was reading from my word? Well, I didn't like the way Tony combs his hair. And so that's
the reason I didn't listen. Listen, even if a donkey tells you what the word of God says,
you better listen to the donkey. Amen. Well, the news media said that Tony was called.
The news media, you listen to them more than me. He was preaching my word. He was teaching my word.
Okay. And you're not gonna know what I am. Here I am now. You say, well, but Lord, I mean, give me
another chance. No, it's appointed unto man once to die, Jesus will say. And after this adjustment,
you're finished. La commandeo finito. The comedy is over. It's a finish. She's a fan. It's over.
And you just want to scream. Scream all you want. I don't want to hear I'm throwing you into hell.
And then the lake of fire, because you didn't watch. You didn't listen. You had an excuse
of why you didn't listen to how come you didn't watch how come you didn't do these things. And
now you're pleading ignorance and using Tony or the news media or somebody else as an excuse
why you didn't listen to me. You had a bother yourself. You could have picked that up and read
it for yourself, but you didn't. But Lord, you know, I was tired. I did all the housework and
there's so many things distractions in the world. I told you to put my entire word into you so that
you would be able to be like a rod of iron and that you would be able to rule the world with a rod
of iron. Well, anyway, folks, I'm going to leave you with that thought. It's time to read some letters.
But you know, you really need to repent now because you never know if the Lord's going to come on
you in the next minute or two. He may allow you to listen to the rest of the message. Okay, so go
ahead. Where's the first letter from from Chino, California? Where? Chino, California. Chino. All
right. That's where the big prison is out there. And that's where Jack Chick, you know, had been over
there to his publishing term years ago. We met and with Alberto Rivera. All right, let me hear
what they say in Chino. Dear Tony, praise God that even though I find myself incarcerated in California's
prison system so far from home in New York City, where I first read your newsletter, I thank God
that I found two newsletters in the cell that I was given. I loved them both. I felt as God was
trying to talk to me through the newsletters. I was really impressed with the footnotes because
during my Bible research in the 90s, when I wanted to know the truth, I had read the books in your
footnotes. But your footnotes had other books that I would really love to read like the Black
Pope by M. Francis Cusack. I always heard and read about the Black Pope. So you can imagine how excited
I got to read that I'm not the only one that knows about these things. I used to be Catholic but have
been a Christian since May of 1984. Even though I'm incarcerated, I feel more free than I've ever
been. Please send me your newsletters every month. They come out and your book The Messiah.
I'll always keep your ministry in my prayers. God bless you. Tony and your ministry in Christ
Jorge from Chino, California. Well, Jorge, praise the Lord. I would keep you in my prayers too. Now
do you have a short wind? Yes. Texarkana, Texas. Okay. Pastor Tony, regarding your magnificent
mincey, no words, masterpieces, your new songs. They are powerful, awesome, none the like, so
spirit filled. You lifted immediately to the throne with prayers, singing and tears of rejoicing to
hear and feel the power of God. It's absolutely beautiful. I only wish there was more and I could
be singing in the choir that backed you up. But I know I'll be singing with you eternally in heaven's
choir. Thank you, Tony. I'm so thankful I can be under you, my pastor, all our love in Christ Jesus
are soon coming King Sue Davis from Texarkana, Texas. The Lord, HP Barnum, who was telling me the
other day, I can't wait. He says, I would love when he was here in the playbacks. He says, I love,
I can't wait to have like three million angels and for them to be in a choir singing. He says,
that would really thrill me. All right. Well, our time is up for reading letters. And I just
thank and praise the Lord for HB and the choir and symphony orchestra and things that are done
that the Lord puts in my path, that people's hearts and spirits can be touched by the doors
that he opens for us and the knowledge of the Word of God. But right now, he says, watch now,
watch out for your soul. You have to start out right now. It's an absolute commandment to be saved.
Jesus said, it's not a thing that you should. But he said, you must be born again of the Spirit.
So say this prayer, and you will be immediately born again of the Spirit. Say to the Lord,
my Lord and my God, have mercy upon my soul center. I believe that Jesus Christ is the son of the
living God. And I believe that he died on the cross and shed his precious blood for the forgiveness
of all my former filthy sins. And I believe that you Father God raised Jesus from the dead by the
power of the Holy Spirit. I open the door of my heart and I invite you into my heart, Lord Jesus,
Holy Father, Holy Spirit, wash all my former filthy sins away, Lord Jesus, and the blood that you shed
for me on the cross is Calvary. You will not turn me away, Lord Jesus. You will save my soul. I know
because your word says that all who call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Therefore,
I know that you have heard me and I know that you have answered me and I know that I'm saved and I
thank you and praise you with all my heart, Lord God, for saving my soul. Now just raise your hands
and thank the Lord. Now share until our listening audience, they may receive a copy of this
