1. I Review Of Assertions 1.“He is a descendant of Aaron” “It is improbable that the genealogy of any Jewish family today can be demonstrated authentically beyond the late Middle Ages” (The Standard Jewish Encyclopedia) “Even those who claim to be of priestly family, it must in many cases remain a matter of presumption” (ZPDB)

2. Tribal Identity Means Nothing Ga.3:28; Ga.6:15; Col.3:11 All are on the same level There is no distinction of nation in the church All are entitled to the same privileges There is no favoritism on account of birth, beauty, or blood

3. 2. Three steps of salvation 1.Repent 2.Be baptized in Jesus’ name 3.Be filled w. H.S. and speak w. tongues 3.Be filled w. H.S. and speak w. tongues (Pentecostal plan)

4. Pentecostal Three-Step Plan * Ac.10:44-48, wrong order * Why were Peter and others amazed? * 1 Co.15:2, saved, but 12:30, not all spoke in tongues! one * Ep.4:5, there is one baptism two Pentecostals believe in two

5. 3. Lunar eclipse…just like in Joel Ac.2:16, if this is that, then what is a lunar eclipse? Not that! Joel doesn’t say that his prophecy is fulfilled every time a lunar eclipse turns the moon turns red! miracles Ac.2 proves Joel 2: miracles A lunar eclipse is not a miracle

6. 4. 12,000 from each of the 12 tribes… Rv.7, 14? 1.Exactly 12,000 from each tribe 2.Two tribes are omitted: Dan and Ephraim virgins 3.In 14:3-4, the 144,000 are virgins firstfruits 4.In 14:4 calls them firstfruits Implies that more would follow What does this do to 12,000?

8. Ron Wyatt “When Christ died, the earth quaked. The rock was split right below His cross and this crevice extended right down into the hidden chamber which contained the undefiled ‘earthly’ Throne of God – the Ark with its Mercy Seat” “After He was dead, when the centurion stuck his spear into Christ's side and pierced His spleen, the blood and water came out, falling down through that crack and was sprinkled on the Mercy Seat”

9. Ron Wyatt (d. 1999) The world has lost one of the most colorful charlatans of all time “The world has lost one of the most colorful charlatans of all time” Wyatt also claimed to have found anchor stones used by Noah on the ark, Noah’s house, and the graves of Mr and Mrs Noah, millions worth of her jewelry (allegedly then stolen from Wyatt) An actual sample of Christ’s blood, with chromosomes allegedly still visible under the microscope, showing that there was no human father. Placed in growth medium, the cells began dividing

10. The Council of the Garden Tomb Association Letter to visitors that “totally refute the claim of Mr Wyatt to have discovered the original Ark of the Covenant or any other biblical artefacts within the boundaries of the area known as the Garden Tomb Jerusalem” If Jews had hidden it, the Ark would surely have been used in the Second Temple.
