Everybody that didn't hear it, I hope they'll be able to get to hear that because it was... You did a great job at the conference. I thought your message on Second Thessalonians was fantastic.

Everybody that didn't hear it, I hope they'll be able to get to hear that because it was, Second Thessonelonies is such a phenomenal text. It is. Related to the end times, and you broke it down so beautifully. Well, thank you. Yeah, there's a lot of unique stuff there, you know, about the removal of the restrainer and the, about the rebuilt

temple and also and about the Antichrist. So, yeah, that's a very unique passage. So, yeah, that's what I do here at the church. I go through passages of the Bible every week. So I thought at a prophecy conference, it'd be a, you know, a good thing to do. Just take a text and go through it. So I enjoyed that. Well, you're a theologian, you know, and you've written over 30 books on The End Times, and you have such a mastery of the topic. And, you know, for everyone, you know, it's just good to hear it laid out so carefully so that we can understand it. So we're going to talk about some issues that are in the news.
