Introduction:
Once we become “Saved” this means that we have heard and believed the Gospel, which is the good news that God has given Jesus His Son to pay in full for all our sins and has also defeated death for us by His resurrection.
When this amazing event happens, you are placed in a group known in the Scriptures as “The Remnant”, which is a set of people who have been equipped to see that the Bible is the complete and authoritative Word of God, containing everything accurately and constantly being revealed from day to day.

Transforming Power Statements:
1) The prophecies of the Psalmist in number 110, offers us messianic projections from Psalms 2, about the great war between Jesus the Messiah against the kings of the earth who have usurped and misused their granted authorities against God, which Jesus will win and take back the actual authority God His Father intended for Messiah and His followers to rule the Earth!
2) Jesus The Messiah, after speaking the hard truth about the Scribes and Pharisees in the public, stating that they were Hypocrites” began to teach His disciples the character of the world at the time when His second coming would be fulfilled, and He gave details about the way things would be at that time.
3) We are living in an age where there is just a remnant of actual believers who trust the things that are specifically described in gross detail to allow the remnant to monitor the times we are living in and to be aware of when the end is near.
