    The cupTape #1170

    Passover 2005Pastor Murray

    The cup is really the cup of God's anger. That's why you must know that God has a fixed time. Whenhe is ready, he is going to drop the hammer and that is all there is to it. You might as well get set forit. In our father's word there is more that one time that he warns us that is going to be the fact, so as

    always let's pick up documentation from the Old Testament as to what truly is happening.Open your bibles if you would to psalms 75. A psalm of asaph., asaph means a collector of thepeople and the title of this psalm is written to the chief musician al-taschith which is to say, don'tdestroy, do not destroy, or destroy not. It has to do with god's judgment. It is a psalm pleading withhim not to totally destroy when judgment day comes. Of course anybody that knows our father, knowsthat is not going to happen. Why? Our father is always fair and merciful, but also he is a judge, andwhat he says, that is the way it is. So, psalms 75, let's pick it up and see what it says.Ps 75:1Chapter 751 unto thee, o god, do we give thanks, unto thee do we give thanks: for that thy name is near thy

    wondrous works declare.(kjv)And they do. God's works are wonderful. He gives everybody an opportunity. What you do with it,that's your business. What you do with it, that's what you live with.

    Ps 75:22 when I shall receive the congregation I will judge uprightly.(kjv)That is what our father says. Okay now you see unfortunately from the manuscripts, you lose quite alot. I want you to make a note and I don't want you to forget it, the word "congregation" as it is utilizedhere, is a Hebrew word,

    "mowed", and it means a fixed time. The congregation, when they gather for judgment at a fixed time.That is what God is talking about here, and he wants you to know that it is a fixed time. That he is notplaying games. He is saying that when that time comes, and when it is the fixed time that I call thecongregation together to judge them, I am going to do it right. You can count on it, he will. You mightsay, you are going to get everything you got coming to you all at one time. That wouldn't frighten youChristians would it? No, because you got rewards on judgment day. A lot of people though that don't,they are going to get everything they got coming to them all at one time, why? Because God said Iam going to do it right. I am going to judge it as it should be. But, beloved, take that wordcongregation, and check it out in your own strong's concordance so you see with your own eyes, andyou know really what the word means. A meeting place held at a fixed time to judge both the goodand the bad. That's important, because it is talking about the vials of God and that is what we are

    going to be talking about this evening.

    Ps 75:3-103 the earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I bear up the pillars of it. Selah.In other words, I am the one that keeps it going. I created it and I bear it up. I will judge it fairly. Selahin the psalms means stop the music, think for a moment. I am going to connect two things togetherand what he connects here is the set time of judgment. That's important to you. The set time of

    judgment both for the wicked and for the righteous. All at the same time. Our father is that judge.That's the congregation he is talking about gathering. It is a congregation that shall be judged at afixed time and we are coming up on that time. That is why I am stressing it in this Passover, that youhave it sealed in your mind, that you can break down both the seals, the trumps, and the vials to

  • 8/4/2019 The Cup Pm 1170 Passover 2005

    2/8

    chronologically know in your mind the fixed times, whereby when the seal that lets you foreknow,when it triggers then you are with the plan of the day. No problem.4 I said unto the fools, deal not foolishly: and to the wicked, lift not up the horn:The horn signifies power. In other words, don't talk against the God that created you. That is basicallywhat he is saying. Does that make sense to you? Why would somebody want to talk about God thatis going to judge every one? That doesn't leave you in very good standing. You want to be carefulhow you mention his name, because he keepsyou know man kinda forgets but God doesn't. Hehas got a book. It is called the book of life and if you are in it you are very lucky that you are in his

    book, especially in the good column. Otherwise, you are there and all your evil deeds are written rightby it. That's why everybody gets everything they got coming in one day. Some people it is reward.Some people it is not.

    5 lift not up your horn on high: speak not with a stiff neck.What he is talking about, speak not arrogantly about the rock, that is to say the foundation, that is tosay god. It is not wise and hey there is a day coming that he is going to even the score. Is hesensitive? Well in a sense he is. Do you blame him? He gave his only son that whosoever believedupon him could have eternal life. He is forgiving over and over and over again. He forgives, forgives,forgives. Then when you got somebody so stiff-necked, so foolish, so arrogant, that they continuetaking his name in vain, or calling him names, or not believing him. You are not expecting a medal if

    you do that are you.? You are not expecting a reward I would hope, because I can tell you what youare going to get, and it sure notit is going to be an award alright. If you are one of these that likes togo to a pity party, you will have a right to then because pity you okay. In other words, God isrighteous. He uses common sense. Common sense lets you know that when he says I am going to

    judge both the good and the bad, and they are going to get what they got coming to them. I have afixed time for it. I am stressing that beloved. It is important.6 for promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south.You know what that means? How it is written in Isaiah chap 13 that God always rules from the side ofthe north, from the temple, that is the way it is and that is why he does it. That is where the correctionis coming from, it's from god. Directly from God and they are going to get it.7 but God is the judge: ( you know something that is why you don't have anything to worry about.

    Why? Your father is the judge, and you know, you can take that and say, if my father is the judge andI have loved him and treat him right I don't have anything to worry about. Bingo. That's right. Youdon't. You have everything to be joyous over, but if you have been wicked to your father you get all atone time what you got coming to you. )he putteth down one, and setteth up another.He is fair and as long as you got a fair shake you have no complaint. You are the captain of your ship.You drive your ship, and there may be people give you advice, and if you take it, hey that's still youthat did it. You have to hold responsible for your deeds. So when he judges you, it is by what youhave done. It is going to be done at that fixed time.8 for in the hand of the lord there is a cup, (this is why we came here) and the wine is red; it is full ofmixture; and he poureth out of the same: but the dregs thereof, all the wicked of the earth shall wringthem out, and drink them.

    Like it or lump it. They are going to drink from the cup of god. Do you know what it is really filled with?Not wine, god's wrath. Now if you get down to the dregs that is your part. You got trouble friendbecause God is coming back and he is not happy with some. He is not even a little bit happy withsome. I would hate to be in their boots.9 but I will declare for ever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.10 all the horns of the wicked (that is their power)also will I cut off; but the horns of the righteous shallbe exalted.(kjv)

    If you are righteous, if you are planting seeds, if you are doing your father's work, he said I am goingto enlarge your. That means your power, your ability, your blessings, that which you have to workwith. The more you do for god's work utilizing common sense in the place he has placed you, it may

    just be planting a seed once a week, once a month, or when God makes it known it is time to. Alwaysprotect your credibility but work for god. When that opportunity prevails plant that seed. He willexpand it. He will let it grow. It will increase and increase. Why? It is his promise. I will exalt those thatdo my work. Those that are pleasing to me. It is not difficult to please our father. The word as wecovered earlier here, where it said don't be foolish, it is kind of like arrogant. Don't be arrogant toward

    god. You know you would be a lot better off being arrogant to your mate then you would to god. Youknow your mate after they get over it might cook you a biscuit, when God pours out that cup there isnot going to be any biscuits in it. Don't be arrogant. If you are going to be arrogant with anybody,don't' let it be god. He is coming back and he is not happy with some. Make sure, make real sure thatyou are one of the ones he is happy with.I wanted to cover the old testament and I wanted to show you the witness for god's judgment in thecup. I wanted to show you even from the old testament, the word "congregation" means a fixed timefor a specific meeting, meaning judgment. Check it out for yourself. God does not waiver. He is true tohis word. He keeps his word. When you know his plan of the day you can't go too far wrong. It is realeasy to please him. Even if you fail at trying to please him he counts it as done when you make thateffort. When you try. He knows it. Why? He utilizes common sense and there is sure a lot in politics,

    religion, and other places in this world today that common sense is not utilized. It seems to havetaken a vacation. Don't let that happen to you and do not be a part of it.Okay let's go to revelations chap. 15. Having sealed that, from, we are going to go to the vials, togod's cup. When we go to this 15th chapter, we have just passed the 14th naturally, isn't that brilliant?But the 14th talks about their vine, put in that sickle and reap. Their vine is not our vine. It goesstraight to the song of Moses which tells you what the wicked will be doing.Chap 15 verse 1Rev 15:1Chapter 151 and I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvellous, seven angels having the seven last

    plagues; for in them is filled up the wrath of god.(kjv)Guess when these are given? Do you know what the chronological order is? I gave you the fixed timethis morning, it was the 6th trump, that was the second woe. That's when the four winds stopped.That's when God began to intercede. Up until then he had told Michael to do a few things. Kick oleSatan right on out of here, put him down on earth, but when you come to that second woe, Godhimself begins to intercede in the 6th and the 7th trump. All seven of these vials, all 7 of these cupswill be poured out during the 7th trump, basically the 6th and 7th trump. Mainly the 7th. Do youunderstand that is right at the end? Don't be fooled beloved. We are coming up into some prettytough times. Let's document that from his word.

    Rev 15:22 and I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over thebeast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea ofglass, having the harps of god.(kjv)How much went to pass in that verse? Those that had gotten the victory over the beast and over theimage. How many trumps did you blow off there? Now I am only doing this to show you where we areat okay. You are in the 7th trump here. Basically in the 7th trump. The vials have not even began tobe poured out. Let me rephrase that to be, my opinion is in the 6th which is the second woe and the7th trump, the third. But here I mean you already got these people that have been deceived and thetrumps haven't started. I am sorry, the vials have not began.

    Rev 15:33 and they sing the song of Moses the servant of god, and the song of the lamb, saying, great andmarvellous are thy works, lord God almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou king of saints.(kjv)Or king of the ages is a better translation. Why? He is forever. He is eternal, and you are too if youare with him.

    Rev 15:44 who shall not fear thee, o lord, and glorify thy name? For thou only art holy: for all nations shallcome and worship before thee; for thy judgments are made manifest.(kjv)His judgments are going to happen. Why? There is a fixed time. Manifest means it is there. Ithappens. You better start counting the trumps dear one. We are closing in.

    Rev 15:55 and after that I looked, and, behold, the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven wasopened:(kjv)

    Rev 15:66 and the seven angels came out of the temple, having the seven plagues, clothed in pure and whitelinen, and having their breasts girded with golden girdles.(kjv)Rev 15:77 and one of the four beasts (zoon) gave unto the seven angels seven golden vials full of the wrath ofgod, who liveth for ever and ever.(kjv)In other words they weren't even poured out until the 6th and the 7th trump. What does that mean?

    God holds his cool up until then. But then he is tired of letting man handle it. He is going to take careof business himself.Verse 8. Here is another time line, don't miss it.Rev 15:88 and the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of god, and from his power; and no man (wontdo you any good to plant any more seals) was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues ofthe seven angels were fulfilled.(kjv)Now, this sealing let's talk about the seals for a moment, but first, you know the word "vial" , (thefollowing said in sarcasm) that's a little flask, you might as well sing the little song, I `m a little teapot

    strong and stout, here is my handle and there is my spout. We are going to take this little flask and weare going to run over here and put a few drops on something.Hey, you don't know what the word "vial" is in the Greek. It's5357 phiale (fee-al'-ay);You know what it is? It is a description of a cup. #1, it is shallow. It is broad. It is a cup. Why wouldGod use a cup to pour out his wrath that is shallow and broad, meaning it has got a big mouth. Notsome little teapot. It is shallow. I mean you can dump the whole thing all in one shot. He meansbusiness. We are not talking about sprinkling.The seals. Please do not ever forget this. The seals are simply to have the truth in your mind. How doyou acquire the seals? There is only one way you can, that is from the lamb of god. You get it fromhim now, when the holy spirit and the lamb speaks. Documentation for that, rev. 6:1. Only the lamb of

  • 8/4/2019 The Cup Pm 1170 Passover 2005

    5/8

    god. Not a bunch of angels. Why? Because God is the word of God and it is the word of God that youmust have in your mind that places the seal there where you overcome.Now, trumpets. A trumpet when you have an army sounds, gives messages. It is charge, retreat,wake up, go to sleep. The trumpet executes an order. A seal is when the stuff hits the fan. It is whenthe stuff hits the earth at the hand of god. He is tired of messing around at this time. (I am sure hemeant vial, not seal). That is why you can count on the vials being dumped, not until the 6th butprimarily the 7th trump, that is when it is going to happen okay.Again, seals are simply knowledge in your mind, placed there where you can not be deceived.

    Trumps is when God gives the order and he gives it from heaven like when does he tell Michael tokick Satan out of heaven? He gives that order in heaven, not earth. Why would he do that? Becausethat is where they are. He has not interfered with earth yet. Man kind of has a way of messing it uphimself. When the vials begin, shallow, broad, cup, I mean it empties fast. Splat!! That's when god'sword is no warning. That is when the action transpires. The trump, the warning has alreadysounded. I am going to do it. When you wait for the vial, it is too late. It is over. That is when Godhimself intercedes.So we see then the difference and why God would say, at that fixed time I have a plan and it is goingto transpire in that way.Now turn with me to chap. 16. This is something when you chronologically put it in order, falls in placeby itself. Listen to these words.

    Rev 16:1-81 and I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, go your ways, and pour outthe vials of the wrath of God upon the earth.Where is this going? Not heaven. Earth. What is it? It is god's wrath and God means business.2 and the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievoussore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his image.That is the first vial my friends. The first vial. When did they have an opportunity to worship the imageof the beast? Why am I saying that? I want you to see how far along in the trumps we are here. It isover practically. When the vials begin the people have already messed up. Already worshipped the

    antichrist and it is time for a little correction. That shallow, broadmouthed cup full of god's wrath isgoing to be dumped out. Not on those he loves. They are immune. You could be standing right besidesomeone that needed correction and you would be loved. Whereas the other would feel the wrath ofgod. I mean directly from a shallow broad cup, boiling with god's wrath.Hey, he is not going to put up with it forever. Do you understand? That doesn't make even commonsense does it that he would just take it over and over. Of course not. Then are we going to call him aliar that he has made these promises that there is a day of correction coming without a fixed time?No. There is a fixed time and that time is coming. So this is simply, and perhaps I am, I don't want thisto sound like I am talking down to you, I am not. I am pleading with you to see how the proof is in thepudding, in the word. Where the first vial is poured out people have already worshipped the image ofthe beast from rev. 13 okay.

    3 and the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became as the blood of a dead man:and every living soul died in the sea.Do you understand that this is the same thing that the two witnesses do in rev 11:6. A little warningwill come from the witnesses but this is not just a warning. Waterdon't turn there but you shouldalready be on that page now, chap. 17:15 of rev. What are all these rivers, and waters, and seas, andlakes?

    Rev 17:1515 and he saith unto me, the waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, andmultitudes, and nations, and tongues.

    (kjv)That is who the sea is. The sea of people that are whoring after the antichrist are going to have thecup emptied on them. They are going to have the "joy" of partaking of the dregs of the wrath of god.That is why you don't want any part of it. You don't have to be frightened away from that, but yourlove of your father draws you far away from anything that could penetrate you or your family in thatregard.4 and the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of waters; and they becameblood.

    People. The very people themselves. You know something? I could even say that there are some thatwill be sweating blood at this time.5 and I heard the angel of the waters say, thou art righteous, o lord, which art, and wast, and shalt be,because thou hast judged thus.You always judge fair. You know how to get those that are wicked. You know how to pour the vial onthose deserve it and you know how to bless your children. Remember what he said back in the 75thpsalm? I will give the dregs to the wicked but I will strengthen the horn of the righteous. That is whyyou can rest assured when your blessings come it is because you are doing something right. You arefollowing the righteousness of the living god.6 for they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; forthey are worthy.

    They deserve it. They are going to get it and you can't help having your mind go back to the 23rdchap of matt. Where the kenites sit in the seat of Moses and have been guilty for the blood of manyprophets.7 and I heard another out of the altar say, even so, lord God almighty, true and righteous are thy

    judgments.8 and the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch menwith fire.(kjv)You know that from chap. 11 verse 5, the two witnesses give a small taste of this way back when.

    Letting people know. You know we are living in some very precarious times but precious times. Manyof the prophets wanted to live today when these events are transpiring. When they areconsummating. Again, seals all at one time, trumps almost through and then we have this, where thestuff hits the fan. God's will . There will be no bargaining with him at that time.

    Rev 16:99 and men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of god, which hath power overthese plagues: and they repented not to give him glory.(kjv)Talk about deception. Boy when Satan does it, he does the job right. The world is deceived in a largepart. If your name is in the book you are very fortunate. You care. You don't mind reading for yourself.

    Rev 16:1010 and the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full ofdarkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain,(kjv)That is to say, the very seat of antichrist and you that are familiar with 2 thess. Chap 2: 4-7 knowwhere Satan plants his seat through this particular time, it is on mt Zion itself. Claiming to be god.Sitting their claiming to be Christ. It is obvious from the vials that many will believe him.

    Rev 16:11-19

  • 8/4/2019 The Cup Pm 1170 Passover 2005

    7/8

    11 and blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not oftheir deeds.You are not going to change Satans lieutenants or those that are so deceived that they really trulybelieve they are following Christ. They truly do. Churches have been formed on some lies. I don'twant someone to think I am down on churches. I am not. I love churches. Where would we be withoutthem praise god. It is bad enough the way it is. Here comes the 6th which must align with the 6thtrump.12 and the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was

    dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared.You know who the kings of the east are, that is the oriental. The middle east and so forth.13 and I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, (where? Dragon,Satan) and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.The triune godhead of Satan. A bunch of lies.14 for they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth (notthe kings of heaven. Not the kings that Satan boots out, but the actual world rulers, earth rulers aretaken in by it) and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God almighty.It is coming friend. It is called Armageddon remember?

    15 behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk

    naked, and they see his shame.How embarrassing it would be to claim to be a Christian and end up in the sack with Satan. Boy, howembarrassing. This is why Jesus would say, "woe to those that are with child when I return". He wasspeaking spiritually and it meant those that are spiritually impregnated with these lies.16 and he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.(Armageddon, hill or city, and the gathering place of the crowd)17 and the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of thetemple of heaven, from the throne, saying, it is done.And so it is. It is done what? God's wrath is poured out. There is going to be a lot of pain and a lot ofsuffering because of that. Don't worry, the war goes on just a little bit further. We are going to stop

    there for this time.I want to, again it is going to sound like I am talking down to you, but you must be able to simplify thisand keep it in your mind whereby you can understand the seven seals, the seven trumps, and theseven vials. You have heard me say when 6, 6, 6, comes together. 6th seal, 6th trump, and 6th vial.That's 666, that's Satan. That is when the Euphrates is dried up. That is when the wicked spirits areturned loose on earth, not heaven, not in the air, but on earth. That is when Satan rules and reigns asthe false messiah, and boy is he going to make hay it would seem like. Do you understand that iswhat angers our father? That is why our father pours the shallow, broad cup. Do you understand howcarefullyyou know if you have a real shallow cup, and it is real broad and you fill it all the way full,how careful do you have to be carrying that thing? It will empty out quick and that is what God wantsyou to draw from that. He is not happy. He is angry and he wants to pour that out. So, you do have

    the three sixes coming together. It means doom right on the seat of Satan and his false teachings.You have the seals as your protection. It is your knowledge from the word of god, hearing the word ofgod. Remember we covered in Ezekiel this morning, prophesy to those dry bones, prophesy to thosespiritually dead people. And what do you begin to see? This person begins to hear, that personbeings to hear, another person begins to hear, and they come together as an army of God becausethey received the seals which are the word of god. His truth. Then we have the trumps. That is timefor action. Give the command to go forth. That takes time. Then, when you work your way down tothe 6th trump, as it is written in rev. Chap. 9, then the river Euphrates again is hit and the devils areturned loose on earth and that is when god's wrath begins to dump, dump, and dump. There is nowarning for that. I mean the first thing you will see, is not a command to go forth, but you will see

  • 8/4/2019 The Cup Pm 1170 Passover 2005

    8/8

    god's people being blessed and Satans people being burned. I don't mean literally but I mean inanything they attempt to do. It is going to go sour for them because God is unhappy with them.So, chronologically, keep it in your mind straight, that the seals happen before the first trump sounds.Why? Because our people have to know what to expect. The truth. Then the trumps begin to sound,and they have begun. When you get to the 6th trump then the vials are loaded. You are getting realclose then, and those vials empty out quick and complete and thorough because God will judge.That's his job. That is what he is supposed to do. His children have been abused by Satan for eons.He is fed up with it. He is not going to take it any more. How proud he is of his loved ones when they

    help him make that stand.Again, it is so ever important, you all know I didn't bring a watch this time? I have no idea how long Ihave been teaching. You know usually we try to keep this where it fits an hour's television.(brief story here about you know when you are through when you have nothing else to say)This is the point I wanted to make this weekend beloved. It is so important. I insist that you not takemy word for the word "congregation" and its definition and translation in psalms 75. I want you toknow that God has a fixed time. He loves his children. He means what he says, and he says what hemeans. It is not difficult to understand and follow him. So many people say, I have to have aninterpreter for that. If God is speaking in a parable, yes you need to interpret it. If God is not speakingin a parable then you are silly if you think you need an interpreter. Like this morning, Christ said inLuke chap 10 verses 18 and 19, I beheld Satan fall from heaven. Duh. That needs an explanation? I

    don't think so. Do you think Christ doesn't know what he is saying? Well maybe it means a tub of lardis going to hit long beach. You can really get into some silly, silly things. God knows what he says,means what he says and it is going to happen the way he says it. He has a fixed plan. Well, don'tforget. Chronologically keep those things in order when you study the book of rev.I suppose I am accused of over simplifying at times but to me I do not take it as being anoversimplification, I don't, I can't see it. Why? Because it is simple. It is just very simple to keep itstraight. You know what, if you don't, it is so simple keeping it straight that if you don't keep it straightyou are going to mess your little ole mind up. Get all confused. Let it be simple. Let the truth flow. Beblessed of Almighty God .
