Emmaus Road Productions

Welcome to another Emmaus road productions video. In this video series we are explaining the theological concept of the Rapture. This video series is inspired by a series my pastor is currently conducting and I have adapted it to video format. If you search for this topic on the internet or YouTube you will find a lot of various opinions and thoughts. In this series we will be looking at a lot of scripture and everything will be based first and foremost on scripture which is our ultimate authority. We encourage you to search the scriptures and verify for yourself everything we teach here at Emmaus Road Productions. If you have questions please feel free to leave them in the comments section below. In part 5 we will talk about how the rapture involves the main phase of the resurrection. In this video I talk about how urgent it is to get saved. If you don't know Christ as your Lord and savior I invite you to watch this video https://youtu.be/yRKx8FjjzMA 00:00 Intro 01:22 Recap What happens when your die. Illustration of before the cross and after the cross 21:19 The Harvest is a picture of the phases of the Resurrection 25:00 First Fruits 26:59 Main Harvest 39:44 Corners and Gleanings 52:05 Those that have died are eagerly are awaiting the rapture. 56:28 Closing

I saw this prophecy update from @rockharborchurchbakersfield In the full video to watch it you have to answer 2 disclaimers about graphic and sensitive material before the video can play because at the first part of the video Pastor Brandon Holthaus shows actual video footage of what Hamas is doing. I encourage you to watch this video while you can. On Wednesday I released a video saying that I anticipated that the media narrative would begin to shift and there would be calls for Israel to back down. I share a couple of clips showing the shifting media narrative. I haven't made as many videos this week because I am keeping an eye on this but this is one of the best and most concise updates I have seen this week and if you only take the time to watch one video this one is definitely worth the hour of your time. BTW I have turned comments off for this video because this type of content is getting a lot of anti-Semitic hate from "supposed" Christians. I don't normally say stuff like this but "anti-Semitic" and "Christian" DO NOT belong together. Show me an "Anti-Semetic Christian" and I will show you a person on the fast track to hell with a form of Godliness. WATCH THIS NOW WHILE IT IS AVAILABE! @rockharborchurchbakersfield video https://youtu.be/yINNKfnFYHo?si=wEmK_ETtBGFqT1sD

I may pull parts of this video out later and make it multi part but there are 2 main sections I am going to talk about these converging signs and give my understanding of them and why so many content creators are making errors Then I am going to go through some popular rapture scriptures and point out the erroneous assumptions I believe many are making. I will add time stamps later to make it easier to jump around through this video. Part 1 0:00 We see Converging Signs but where are they converging signs Part 2 Let's review some proper rapture scriptures 32:15 2 Peter 3:8-10 One Day as a 1,000 Years. Does this scripture prove that Christ is coming back in 6000 years after the the creation of the world 44:27 Matthew 24 : 36-44 No one "knows the day or the hour" "comes like a thief" Beware date setting and speculation 1:10:01 I make a side note are content creators the John the Baptist's of today 1:18:32 2 Thessalonians 2 : 1-12 Will the Great lie Help the world enter a new normal? 1:32:34 Matthew 24 : 45-51 What does watch, be ready mean? 1:37:30 1 Thessalonians 5 Does this tell us we should know the date because this was written after the Cross 1:43:48 Matthew 16 : 1-4 Why did Christ rebuke the Pharisees? 1:48:03 Daniel 9 : 24-27 What does the Prophecy actually say 1:52:41 Daniel 12 : 11-12 Revelation 11:3; 12:6 What do all these days tell us?

On this channel I have made a lot of videos talking about how close we are to the rapture of the church. Rather than making more videos about various signs pointing out the obvious that we are living in the last days I want to discuss where we are going when the Rapture does occur. How much do you know about heaven? If someone were to ask you to describe heaven could you? And would that answer be based on scripture or things that you have heard that you can't be 100% certain are in scripture? I think it is important that we are ready to answer this question because if we are witnessing to someone we need to be able to give a better answer than some type of vague well heaven is a much better place than this earth and you won't ever be sick.

In the Christian community we talk a lot about prayer but how many of us know the proper Biblical way to pray? In Matthew 6:5-15 Jesus clearly teaches us how to pray. I believe that if you follow the model that Christ gives us it will help you have a more productive and fruitful prayer life.

I have been working on several other projects for my channel and I don't want anyone to think I am oblivious to what is going on in Israel. I personally believe that this war MAY be a fulfillment of Psalm 83 with the countries that are involved. The truth is when you are in a prophecy it is harder to know for sure that is the prophecy you are in until you have gone through the prophetic event. I will not be using this platform to speculate and give a play by play run down of this war as it unfolds. I am not qualified to do so and I have access to the same information you do. I do not have inside contacts at the IDF to source information from and I am in the United states not Israel. If you are looking for more in-depth analysis from a Christian Worldview; I would recommend the following channels: @beholdisrael @pastorjameskaddis @thebalaganconnection7129

In this part on how to study the Bible I talk about what the Bible actually is and how it came to be and how it stacks up to other religious texts. These videos are ending up a lot longer than I intend but I think it is important to be as thorough as possible.

Welcome to a Emmaus road productions. Today study we’re going to take a look at part 3 on how to study the bible. 2 Timothy 2:15 Commands us 15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. With over 400 English translations of the Bible which version should I study? Are they all the same

Welcome to a Emmaus road productions. Today study we’re going to take a look at part 4 on how to study the bible. 2 Timothy 2:15 Commands us 15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. In today’s world it is not politically correct to believe in absolute truths. Today, I hear phrases like “my truth”, “your truth”, etc. Though this is not a popular opinion there is a such thing as absolute truth. 2+2=4, 1 cup is = 8 oz. If you are baking a cake following a recipe if you don’t follow the recipe you are going to end up with a bad cake. If your truth is gluten is bad and you substitute corn meal for flour, or you add extra butter, eggs etc. This episode will also answer the question of if there are multiple interpretations of the same scripture. Many Christians look at the Bible today like a piece of art and ignore many of the rules for rightly interpreting scripture. In part 1 I talked about worldviews if you want more detail. The recipe for life is the Word of God. Many of the problems in this world are where we have tried to make the cake of life without the recipe or we substituted different ingredients. This will allow you to skip to parts 0:00 intro 3:45 Interpretation of the Bible is not Subjective 7:17 7 rules of interpretation overview 8:36 Rule 1 Pray before you study 16:15 Rule 2 Always take scripture in context 31:27 Rule 3 Compare Scripture with Scripture 40:27 Rule 4 Don't study with pre-conceived ideas 42:38 Rule 5 Get the literal meaning first and then look for the spiritual application 51:05 Rule 6 Have an understanding of Dispensations 54:37 6a Dispensation of Innocence 56:21 6b Dispensation of Conscience 57:29 6c Dispensation of Human Government 58:21 6d Dispensation of Promise 59:05 6e Dispensation of the LAW 1:00:33 6f Dispensation of Grace 1:01:25 6g Dispensation of the Millennium 1:03:07 Rule 7 Make a distinction between things that seem similar 1:07:45 Closing please rumble and follow

In today’s episode we continue our Journey through the Bible with Genesis Chapter 4 00:00 Introduction 02:17 The Children Of Adam 04:00 The Wrong Way to Worship 10:02 The First Murder 16:24 Cain's Family 26:32 Lamech the Father of Inventors 34:38 A New Hope 36:34 Discussion Questions (I spent a long time on this. These are my thoughts but nothing I can be dogmatic on) 51:48 Closing Clarification In Genesis 4 verse 25 "she" is the correct pronoun. And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and called his name Seth: For God, said she, hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew. I read this wrong while recording but thought I had typed something wrong on the slide. What this verse is saying is that Eve had a son and her son Seth would take the place of Abel. Sorry for any confusion this caused.

One thing I have always struggled with is the timing of all the Various Judgements in Revelation. Most of the time when we discuss revelation we stack the Seals, Trumpets, Thunders and Bowls one after another. I have always believed that these judgements would overlap but I had never really heard this taught. Brother Lee Brainard over at @Soothkeep did an excellent video on this and I could not hope to make a better video. I give you a taste of what this video is about but you will have to check out the full version on his channel. https://youtu.be/TflRsNrXOKw?si=le-WfQCRyAvjIT7O

In part one of this series we looked at where heaven is and we saw in the third heaven there is a City. In todays video we take a closer look at that city. If you have ever had to move and are looking to buy a new house one of the first things you start with is you look at neighborhoods you are interested in living. In Revelation 21&22 John is giving us the Brochure for the New Jerusalem. Remember the Reason for doing this study is to stop being hyper-focused on WHEN the Rapture will take place, rather to encourage the Body of Christ WHERE we are going at the Rapture. If this is somewhere you would like to go one day but don't know how I implore you to check out this video. https://youtu.be/G6q4zmzhUKA

Part 1 we discussed where heaven is and saw that in the 3rd heaven there is a City Part 2 we Looked at this Celestial City and talked about its size and it’s construction In today’s video we are going to meet the inhabitants of the New Jerusalem and get a look at life in that City. Remember the Reason for doing this study is to stop being hyper-focused on WHEN the Rapture will take place, rather to encourage the Body of Christ WHERE we are going at the Rapture.

We are continuing our Review of the Book “Why I Believe” By Pastor Chip Ingram. I will not be recapping previous episodes, but I will add these episodes to a playlist that I will link at the end of this video along with a link to Pastor Ingram’s video for you to review. Of the major religions of the World ours is the only one I know of where our Savior died for our sins and was raised again on the third day. Buddha died and supposedly reached a higher plane Muhammed was carried off into heaven by a horse But Christ was crucified on an old Roman cross and after three day resurrected Himself back to life and after about 40 days following His resurrection ascended to heaven. Join me as we discover in part 2 if we have an answer to did Jesus really rise from the grave or is this a myth? Here is the link for that site I mention in my video from GotQuestions.org https://www.gotquestions.org/prophecies-of-Jesus.html

Today there is epidemic in the Church of believing in Jesus without any emphasis on repentance. In this video we look at Luke 13:1-5 and talk about why repentance is so important. Most of this video is a sermon clip from Pastor Rex Edwards of Cornerstone FWB Church my former pastor, friend and spiritual mentor. You can check out the full sermon here https://youtu.be/OXX8FeuIkss?si=1jJtOoeU4ye1wlEE I have also linked a video at the end of this video if you want to know more about how to be saved.

2023 Has been an exciting year in the Bible Prophecy world. Unfortunately, many content creators have allowed themselves to get so caught up in wild speculative theories that many in the body of Christ have become discouraged, dismayed, burnt out to the point that they are stressed out and panicked. Bible prophecy is meant to be a comfort to believers and not a burden. I read from 1 Thes 4 and 2 Thes 2 and offer some words of encouragement to those that feel discouraged, hurt and let down. Jesus is faithful and will return at the appointed time. It is not for us to be concerned with that time and all those feelings that may eventually turn to anger don't direct them toward Christ. He did not let you down or forsake you. All that's happened is people have speculated wrong. God's plan is still on track and nothing we can say or do will alter His plan that has been playing out since before the foundation of the World.

In the last 36 hours I have been hearing and seeing rumors on the internet about potential lockdowns returning in September 2023. As of August 23, 2023 these reports are unconfirmed by reliable sources. DISCLAIMER I am neither validating nor refuting these claims. I am using this story to ask a hypothetical question.

Whether it is through death or the rapture there is a clock on how much time you have to reach others for Christ. I have become more frequent in the videos I have created because I was watching Tyler @Generation2434 for the last couple of months. If you have not run across his channel it is worth examination. Tyler makes long form videos where he is bringing in current events and makes some compelling arguments for how close we are to the Rapture. If you believe the Rapture is near what are you waiting for. Today is the day to tell that friend or loved one about Christ. Here is a link to Tyler's Channel https://www.youtube.com/@UCy6mNaWh71ob7j70DzgrZeQ Here is his latest video https://www.youtube.com/live/fAdGMdo0C-M?feature=share Here is the Steven Curtis Chapman song I referenced https://youtu.be/S5ZhyDho6tE Video thumbnail was created using Bing Image Creator powered by Dall-E and text added with Microsoft PowerPoint.

In a few of my videos I have mentioned the Rapture would be A if not THE triggering event to push the world into the Tribulation. In these videos I have thrown out some numbers and in this video I show my work. This will be a very technical video and will have a lot of slides so you will probably want to watch this video rather than listen to it. You may also want to watch this on a computer so you can see all the data I am sharing and you may want to make sure to watch this is full screen. According to the US Census Bureau’s International Data base the world population is about 8 Billion. Several pieces of this dashboard for my calculations later. You can see the link on your screen and I will put this link in the description of this video if you want to do your own math. Source https://www.census.gov/data-tools/demo/idb/#/dashboard?menu=countryViz&COUNTRY_YEAR=2023&COUNTRY_YR_ANIM=2023 Most of my viewers are in the United States and I am in the US so I like this data source because you can choose which country to look at. In my previous videos I have mainly talked about global number but I will also calculate an estimate for the US. Not all countries are equal. Source https://www.census.gov/data-tools/demo/idb/#/dashboard?menu=countryViz&COUNTRY_YEAR=2023&COUNTRY_YR_ANIM=2023&CCODE_SINGLE=US&CCODE=US Believers – Something to keep in mind when I get to my calculations all the statistics, I have looked up estimate the Global Christian population between 2 and 2.6 Billion. I don’t like to source data from Wikipedia but if you know how to use Wikipedia you can look at all the references for the wiki article. I think these numbers are overly generous see Matthew 7:21-23 21 I am being very conservative in my estimations because throughout scripture believers are portrayed as the smaller group. See Matt 7:14, 9:35, 9:37, 22:14; Luke 10:2, Luke 12:32, Luke 13:22-24 Source https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christianity_by_country#cite_note-:0a-3 Though there is no specific passage that mentions an “age of Accountability” The Clearest example of this is 2 Samuel 12:21-23 Children – This is very individual to the child. Romans 1:20 tells us that “For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse.” so indirectly if a child does not have the capacity to recognize God they would have an excuse though they aren’t innocent. Also Consider Matthew 19:14 “but Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven.” Mentally Disabled Using the sources below I am going to assume 1-3% of global population Sources: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9805697/#:~:text=Globally%2C%2092.8%20million%20individuals%20or,107.6%20million%20individuals%20with%20ID https://ijpds.org/article/view/1342 https://www.inclusivecitymaker.com/disabled-people-in-the-world-in-2021-facts-and-figures/

Sorry for the longer video but I covered a lot. (Look at this this way it would take you 9,912 hours to watch every episode of Ancient Aliens plus all the other shows like cosmos, the unexplained. This video is 45 minutes. I obviously have wasted a lot of my life :) ) Have you noticed say in the last five years there is more and more talk about UFOs (Now called UAPs “Unidentified Arial Phenomenon”) and aliens? What was once a taboo topic that only crazy people and conspiracy theorist talked about on AM talks radio shows like coast-to-coast AM and was the subject matter discussed in weird message boards and chat rooms of the internet and obscure documentaries streaming on independent platforms ; is now a legitimate main stream media topic. Now we have people and governments claiming to have contact UAP’s and Aliens. Does the Bible say anything about Aliens? If we as Christians believe the Bible is true then surely it must have something to say about aliens.

The Mark of the Beast is a system that will be required for anyone to have any ability to live in the Tribulation. Would you accept the Mark of the Beast? Or are you full of such spiritual truth that you would never receive the Mark of the Beast. People who think those of us looking for a Pre-Tribulation Rapture of the Church are weak and will be the first to fall. I propose in this video we have already been tested and you can use events in the past to see our resolve. This Video was made for YouTube so I was careful with my language. Most of the comments I have gotten here on Rumble are from people who disagree with the pre-trib rapture. Most of the comments imply that my faith is somehow weaker for this belief. The Covid Vaccine WAS NOT THE MARK OF THE BEAST. But this was a good test of how people would respond when pressured.

This video was recorded 9/20/2023. Last week I warned not to get swept up in all the excitement and hype around the feast of trumpets. Now that the feast of trumpets have come and gone a lot of people may be feeling disappointed and discouraged. This is not an "I told you so" video. In this video I am encouraging my fellow content creators not to double down and set and speculate on more dates and instead focus on sticking to scripture and confine any speculation to the scripture and sound doctrine. Folks being wrong about the feast of trumpets doesn't mean the Lord is not coming back or prove the pre-tribulation position is in error. I also play clips from 2 videos. one @GodAMinuteGoJesusGo and one from @Soothkeep

Because I have been doing a lot of Bible Prophecy videos lately my feed is full of suggested videos where people are saying that “God revealed _____ to me in a dream” or “God showed me a vision of ______ “ Please watch this video and tell me what you think.

I give my review of the Sound of Freedom released by @Angelstudiosinc This movie is a wake up call to how dark and evil our world really is. This is not a "cheesy" Christian film. I have no stake or financial interest in this film. If you would like to see this movie and do not have the financial means to buy a ticket, or if you are skeptical this movie is for you; you can get your free tickets here https://www.angel.com/tickets/sound-of-freedom?promo=sof-claim-free If you have seen this movie and would like to "pay it forward" you can do so here https://www.angel.com/pay-it-forward/sound-of-freedom?utm_campaign=sound-of-freedom-theatrical&utm_medium=web&utm_source=tickets-footer-ad# By the way all my videos I have to select that they are not appropriate for kids because in the YouTube world kid content is highly restricted. This movie is rated PG-13. You should not take your kids to this movie. This is for you parents to realize what is going on and warn your kids.

One of the biggest misconceptions on Salvation is that you have to speak in tongues to prove that you have the Holy Spirit. The Bible clearly teaches that you receive the Holy Spirit when you accept Christ as your Savior. Tongues is just one of many spiritual gifts and to elevate this gift to the level of an evidence of the filling of the Holy Spirit is wrong. These teachings can drive people from the Faith thinking they are not good enough and they give up and is used to scare others that they will not be raptured. This is a more informal video. Do your own research. Scriptures to read 1 Corinthians 12-15 Romans 8:9 Ephesians 1 :13-14 Here are some examples of tongues: https://www.youtube.com/live/ZxB_zc0US4I?si=BQEnevcwwe0GlYEE https://youtu.be/gvzSDCYA33I?si=BPIn1h52mZoMBciq https://youtu.be/GQfofUCBypk?si=SDuEV_kc6IPUGrzA https://youtube.com/shorts/P5tiQw8ohxE?si=yYAnuXGjxr-537JN
