As we're taking a break, we're taking a break from our Roman study and as I'm very

aware that we're approaching Passion Week coming up next week with Palm Sunday, but for this Sunday and next Sunday and

we will definitely do justice trust me to next Sunday's prophetic significance of

Palm Sunday but it is necessary that we pause right now.

The issues in the world around us have been percolating to the point where things are almost the lid is almost coming off the pot as it's

boiling you can see it just dancing as it were on top of of the things that are taking place in the world around us on what might be,

I say that cautiously, what might be on a prophetic scale.

So we're going to stop today and tomorrow or next week I should say and really

the study is going to be titled epicenter but today's epicenter is real and why it's important that we deal with this and I

understand that today we're going to go along and it's going to seem to you to be an unfinished study.

That's because it is.

I'm going to hope that you can come back next week or stay tuned next week to finish this

off. But we're living at a very peculiar time. I was very tempted

to bring you a message titled things that I wouldn't want to say because then that gives you the license to be able to say whatever you really feel about it

But that's for some other time epicenter

Luke chapter 21 I'll start in verse 28 if you guys would read in our

response of reading together you guys picking it up in

verse 29. Jesus is speaking here mind you. Now when these things

begin to happen look up and lift up your heads because your redemption draws near.

And you spoke to them a parable.

Look at the fig tree on all the trees.

When they are already budding, you see and know for yourselves that summer is now near.
