Your Soul Is Worth the Whole Universe to Him

Standing at the precipice of prophecy fulfilled, Evangelist Jeff Thomas delivers a soul-stirring message about the rapidly approaching end times and the critical choices facing every person alive today. With compelling urgency, he unveils how current world events—wars, natural disasters, technological advancements, and global governance structures—perfectly align with biblical prophecy written thousands of years ago.

The sobering reality of what Thomas calls "the death clock" frames this powerful episode. With 56 million souls stepping into eternity annually, he challenges listeners to consider their eternal destiny before time expires. Drawing from Hebrews 9:27, he emphasizes the two inescapable appointments awaiting humanity: death and judgment. For believers, this means the Judgment Seat of Christ; for those who reject salvation, the terrifying prospect of the Great White Throne Judgment where "whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire."

Thomas meticulously connects Jesus' prophecies in Matthew 24 about wars, famines, earthquakes and pestilences with current headlines, identifying these not as random disasters but as prophetic birth pains signaling Christ's imminent return. While these signs might terrify the world, believers are instructed to "look up" as redemption draws near (Luke 21:28). Meanwhile, emerging technologies like artificial intelligence and the push toward global economic systems reflect the one-world government and economy prophesied in Revelation.

The heart of this message centers on life's brevity—"a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away" (James 4:14)—and the urgency of response. Thomas extends Christ's invitation with passionate clarity: repentance and faith must happen now, today, while the opportunity remains. Like the closing door of Noah's ark, the window for salvation won't remain open indefinitely.

Whether you're a long-time believer needing renewed purpose or someone searching for truth in chaotic times, this episode will transform how you view current events and your place in God's prophetic timeline. Listen now and prepare your soul for eternity—because soon, as Thomas warns, "time will be no more."

John 14:6 "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."
If you haven't received Jesus Christ by Faith, as your personal Lord and Savior; I strongly encourage you to do so before it is eternally too late!!!

Speaker 1: 0:22

Hello, welcome to this another edition of Words from the Word of God. Thank you so much for joining us today. Beloved listeners, this is Evangelist Jeff Thomas, and today's episode, this message, carries a weight that cannot be ignored, a message straight from the edge of eternity. Picture with me, if you will, that there is an hourglass in heaven and the sand in the top of that hourglass are falling faster and faster and getting lower and lower. Because we must understand, the prophecies of the word of God are not unfolding, they're unraveling, just as this world around us is unraveling. Do you know? Everything that we see, everything that we hear in the headlines, was told, foretold so over 2,000 years ago and even before that. If you go back to Isaiah's near and far prophecies, ezekiel's near and far prophecies, ezekiel 38, 39, you begin to see these things take place. You see, not only is prophecy unraveling, but the world is unraveling. Yet still and I made reference to this in the last broadcast the death clock continues to tick and please understand and know that over 56 million souls will step out into eternity this year alone. 56 million souls Now for born-again believers. We need to be concerned with how many of that 56, because it is the prayer of my heart that every soul in this world that does not know Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior would come to the saving knowledge of his gospel before they do step out into eternity. And you know and be, and who's to say we will not be one of these 56 million souls this year that will step out into eternity. Are we prepared? You know that's more, that 56 million is more than just populations. That's more that 56 million is more than just populations. It's eternal destinies, the eternal destiny of every soul, of every soul. Jesus would say what does it profit a man to gain the whole world, the whole cosmos, the universe, and lose his own soul? Folks, that's what our souls are worth to him. Everything in the universe, the whole universe, is worth to Jesus Christ and the Lord, god Almighty, the Father in heaven. Our soul singular is worth the whole universe to him, as he was the lamb slain before the foundation of the world. There's two things that are a fact of life. The word of God tells us about this in James. Considering now we're considering. Still looking at the death clock ticking, you know, I think it's 2.8. I don't know how to get to 0.8, but it's 2.8. People will die every second, 2.8. 2.8, over 56 million souls a year stepping out into eternity, eternal destinies.

Speaker 1: 4:20

We need to understand what scripture says about death and judgment. Hebrews the author of Hebrews, which I believe in my heart of hearts, is the Apostle Paul, and many have the different opinions there, say it's Peter and so on, but either way, the author was inspired by God and carried along by the Holy Spirit, as they wrote. And he tells us in Hebrews, chapter 9, verse 27, that two things are a fact of the word of God and a fact of our life, and that one is death and the other is judgment. Hebrews 9, 27 tells us and is it appointed unto men notice that word appointed unto men wants to die, but after this the judgment. It is appointed unto men, appointed unto us once, to die, but after this the judgment. This isn't a gentle message, it's eternal and it declares that the gospel of Jesus Christ demands a response, for death and judgment. Are sure, as I spoke of facts of life, but be assured that they are the truth of God's word. And God's word, just just as God, he cannot lie. His thoughts are above our thoughts, his ways are above our ways and his ways are above us finding out. But he has put a stamp upon each one of us and he knows the very moment we will take our last breath. But we're not assured of that. We must prepare our souls for that moment when we take our last breath so we don't step out into eternity, out into outer darkness, and suffer an eternity in hell and the lake of fire, which is the second death, eternally separated from God. His judgment poured out and we speak of judgment and we'll get to judgment here in a moment.

Speaker 1: 6:42

Right now we're dealing with death. You know sin and death go hand in hand, along with darkness. Sin, death, darkness, satan, all of it goes hand in hand. Jesus Christ defeated all of that. He died on the cross, redeemed our souls. All we have to do is accept him by faith and through repentance, and accept him by faith. He's redeemed us off the slave market of sin. But what we're saying here is we must understand that judgment will come and we'll get to that in a moment.

Speaker 1: 7:18

But let's look at some things here concerning prophecy. Consider prophecy Jesus would tell us as we move on from death. Let's move into prophecy before we get into the judgment part. He says in matthew, chapter 24, 6 through 8, we have a beautiful prophecy of the lord of the end times, jesus christ. He says and this is verse 6 through 8 of the gospel of Matthew, chapter 24, if you want to read along with me, he says and ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that ye be not troubled, notice this, for all these things must it's an emphatic they must come to pass, but the end is not yet, for nations shall rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom, and there shall be famines and pestilences and earthquakes in diverse, in various, in many different, different places. Is what that word diverse means? Diverse places. All these are the beginning of something sorrows. He says these things must come to pass. Don't miss the depth. Here.

Speaker 1: 8:45

Jesus is laying out the timeline for what is so well known in scripture as the birth pains, the pains that must come upon this world as the end and the day of his return to rapture out. The church draws closer and closer and then the tribulation period sits in. But the rapture of the church must come first. But these things are going to happen. I don't watch the news. I try not to watch it. I'm not a political person. If I want to know what's going to happen.

Speaker 1: 9:23

I trust God's word, because God's word tells us exactly what's going to happen. What's coming upon the human race? First the pre-tribulation rapture, then the revelation of the Antichrist, and then the tribulation period, and he'll be mingled in there and he will take over and all these things will happen. But these are the birth pains going into those things, and we are seeing as the stage set for redemption. Creation itself is just the stage for God's redemptive plan for mankind through the blood of his son, the lamb of God, which takes away the sin of the world. Creation was done for us that that redemptive plan might take place. Now, toward the end of the church age, we will start seeing these things and we're already seeing them come to pass.

Speaker 1: 10:27

How do we know that we can trust these scriptures and these prophecies concerning the birth pains? Consider, go back and listen to the first five chapters, almost five chapters we went through in the Gospel of Matthew, and all the prophecies that were fulfilled and the series of messages we were most of last year speaking about the fact of the pre-tribulation rapture in God's Word, the truth of it in God's word, and look at all the prophecies that have already come to pass. You know, jesus would say in his intercessory prayer Father, I have sanctified them with thy word. Thy word is truth. We can't trust what CNN says. I like like trump. He calls them the fake news. I'm not trying to bolster up trump here. Okay, but the fake news, the fake news, we hear that. But truly we don't trust. We, we're not supposed to trust in the arm of man, we're not supposed to trust in flesh and their words, we're not supposed to trust in the news because they are controlled by money. They're controlled by the money muggers of the world and they will report what makes them the most money and gives them the highest rating. So we can't always trust that, but we can trust what God's word says.

Speaker 1: 12:05

And when Jesus tells us toward the end, toward the approaching rapture of the church, the pre-tribulation rapture, they will begin to. We will hear of wars and rumors of wars, and these things must come to pass and nations shall rise against nations. We already see in the natural, many, many natural disasters in many, many places not just earthquakes but hurricanes, you know, great flooding, as we've never seen lives being taken. Texas is the last one here recently that I can bring up as a natural disaster, the disaster of Helene in North Carolina, and I believe it was Hurricane Milton in Florida last year. So many souls, so many people killed, so many lives disrupted. So many families lost all of their generations, of their family. They lost everything they ever owned.

Speaker 1: 13:08

But we already told about these things in scripture. Now we know that all the prophecies of the old testament, most have already come to pass, even the crucifixion of jesus christ, isaiah 53, the virgin birth from Isaiah 7 and Isaiah, chapter 9, and you go on through there, emmanuel, god with us, all of that prophecy, jesus lineage that proves out that he would come through the line of the tribe of Judah and he was the son of the seed of Abraham and the seed of David, and so on and so forth. All those prophecies have come to pass. So when we see and we know those have come to pass and all that was the truth, we have no doubt in believing, in believing these prophecies now. And we know that, as Jesus said, these things must come to pass.

Speaker 1: 14:06

But he also says something here interesting these are the beginning of sorrows, but he also says yet the end is not here. It's not here, but the end is not yet. These are birth pains. These are the troubles that must come upon the world. They aren't the climax, they are the contractions. Think of a woman in great travail as she is going through the birth pain. She's not at the point of birth, but I've heard of women saying they go 36 hours and however many hours of labor and the pains that they go through and the contractions that they experience. I haven't experienced that personally, but many of you have had children, husbands and wives. You know what exactly what we're talking about when we talk about birth pains, and many women who have had children know exactly what the Lord is talking about when he talks about birth pains.

Speaker 1: 15:13

But he said these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. The end is not yet, but one thing is true and it's faithful. Another thing Jesus tells us, you know, and what might I say, is he's not giving here permission for chaos, divine permission for chaos. No, he's revealing divine necessity. These are prophetic prerequisites, not panic points, because we, as true born again believers, those that are sealed by the Holy Spirit, truly born again from above through repentance and faith in Christ, we need not worry, because Jesus also tells us in a related scripture in the synoptic gospel of the gospel of Luke, chapter 21, verse 28. He says and when these things begin to come to pass, notice that come to pass.

Speaker 1: 16:11

He says these things must come to pass. When these things begin to come to pass, then look up and lift up your heads, for your redemption draweth nigh. That means the return of Jesus Christ is right on the threshold. I believe it with all my heart. I believe it with all my heart. I've never been one to put a time frame on it. I've never been one to put a date stamp on it.

Speaker 1: 16:38

I believe that's wrong. It's not for us to know the times or the seasons. It's for us to know the times of the season, just for us to be ready. Hence he's telling us to lift up our heads and look up. Look up, be watching, be on that wall watching. Have our hearts sanctified and, you know, uh, reconcile back into a right relationship with him, getting rid of all the sin and the desires of the flesh in our life and living holy and righteous before him. You know, as the psalmist says, may the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in thy sight. May we live that way, knowing that the return of Christ is just on the threshold, that he's getting ready to call his body out of here and then the tribulation period would fall. But it also behooves us because we know that death, we know that judgment are sure facts and they're truth of scripture, and we know that we have the hope to look up when we start seeing these things happen. But we also know that death and the hell on earth is coming for those that will be left behind after the rapture of the church in the pre-tribulation or, excuse me, the tribulation period.

Speaker 1: 18:02

But what a powerful pivot here. While the world bows in fear over all these disasters and wars and rumors of wars and nation rising against nation, we as believers are commanded to lift up our gaze to heaven, to look to heaven. This isn't about ignoring the signs, it's about interpreting them correctly. It's about being prepared in our hearts. This isn't about ignoring the signs, it's about interpreting them correctly. The wars are real, the famines are tragic, the earthquakes shake the ground, but Jesus says don't be troubled, look up. Look up. But also to the sinner he says come, come unto me, all you that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. I will give you rest. He says I stand at the door and knock, he that opens unto me. I shall go into him and sup with him and he with me. He is seeking, he is searching for that lost lamb. He is searching for that lost. So he's calling out saying I'm knocking on the door of your hearts, I am knocking on the doors of your hearts, but we are to look up. Born again, believers. That's the spiritual posture of this message.

Speaker 1: 19:38

Redemption is a retreat, it's approaching and the Lord is drawing near. The Lord is drawing near Now as we go back to death and judgment. We've talked about the prophecy. Now let's go back to after death or after the tribulation period. In the end, end of all ends, there's judgment, as it's pointed unto men, once to die, and then the judgment. We can't avoid those two things. We can't. Even believers will stand before the judgment seat of Christ, which is the Bema seat, and though we may lose rewards that we could have gotten and we let sin creep in and we didn't do the things that we were supposed to do, and those rewards are burned up like wood and stubble, but our soul shall be saved. It's not a judgment of sins, for our sins have already been redeemed, but the unbelievers and we'll get into this here in just a few moments. We'll stand before the great white throne. We'll get into this here in just a few moments. We'll stand before the great white throne. We'll get into that.

Speaker 1: 20:46

But let's look at james, chapter 4, verse 14, where he says death is sure, whereas you know not what shall be on the morrow, on tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away. Folks, let that settle into your soul for a few moments. Sinner friend, a vapor. Think about a vapor. How fragile that is. You can't even see it before it's gone. Your life is not a monument, it's a mist. It's not a fortress, it's a flicker in time. James is not being poetic here, he's being prophetic, telling you that death is sure. We are not guaranteed another breath. This vapor-like existence that we have, this fragile existence that we have, demands urgency. We don't have time to waste. You have time to choose. And let me give you a reason, because if you go out into eternity without Christ, one day, after all is sin done, and all this earth and heaven that we know of and all this we hold tight to is burnt up and it's nothing but ash and it's gone completely.

Speaker 1: 22:27

John gives us a picture of the great white throne, judgment, where every sinner will stand one day, every Christ-rejecting soul will stand one day. He says in Revelation, chapter 20, verse 11 through 15, let me turn there for a moment, if you will turn there with me, I'll try to hurry. And I saw a great white throne and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and heaven fled away. And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God and the books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the book of life, also known in scripture as the book of the land's book of life, if I may say it's known as the land's book of life. Then he moves on to say and the dead? He says I saw the, the, the dead, small and great, stand before this throne and the books were opened. And and another book was opened, which is the book of life, and the dead were judged.

Speaker 1: 23:37

Notice the word dead, the spiritually dead. Yes, you will be resurrected and you will be given a body suitable for hell, suitable for the lake of fire, suitable to burn in the unquenchable fire of hell and fire and brimstone, in outer darkness, completely separated from God, where his judgments poured out without mixture no grace, no mercy, no love, no God whatsoever, no God whatsoever. And the dead were judged out of those things which are written in the books according to their works. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. Whosoever you know, just as the gospel is a whosoever, you know just as the gospel is a whosoever, doesn't we all that whosoever, for God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believed in him should not perish but have everlasting life.

Speaker 1: 24:49

But if you're one of the whosoevers that rejects so great a salvation, you will be the whosoever whose name is absent from the book of life, and your absence of your name there will dismiss any excuse that you have. Well, lord, lord, didn't I do this, lord, lord, didn't I do that? And go? Your name's absent. Depart from me, you, worker of iniquity, for I never knew you, and you will be cast into the lake of fire, the saddest words probably, that will ever come from the mouth of our Savior. Depart from me, you, worker of iniquity, for I never knew you. This is not a metaphor, my friends, it's not a figment of the imagination, it is a finality.

Speaker 1: 25:41

The great white throne judgment is not a parable, it is a courtroom and, according to John, chapter five, jesus will be the judge, for judgment has been given from the Father to the Son, will be the judge for judgment has been given from the father to the son. The judge is not your pastor, it will not be your parent, it will not be a politician, it will not be the supreme court, it will not be the court of general sessions or the court of appeals. There'll be no appeals, there'll be no more excuses, but but you will stand before Jesus, the beginning and the end, the first and the last, the almighty. The almighty, every deed not paid for by the lamb, the precious blood of the lamb of God, every lost soul summoned, every name searched. Every lost soul summon, every name, search, every deed answered for and then cast into the lake of fire. And, my friends, if your name is not recorded in the Lamb's book of life, you will be cast into the lake of fire, which is called the second death.

Speaker 1: 26:53

They go hand in hand, synonymous in scripture, according to the King James Bible, which is called the second death. They go hand in hand. It's anonymous in scripture. According to the King James Bible, it is Not because God is cruel, but because you rejected the cure. You rejected the way. Jesus says I am the way, the truth and the life. No man cometh to the Father but by me. Folks, as we sit here today, we must consider these things, because even as we sit here together today and meet together sharing these words from the word of God, artificial intelligence is now mimicking human thought, is now mimicking human thought. Nations are gathering together to form a one world government under a one world digital currency. The book of Revelation's one world economy is rising. The Babylon of Revelation is rising and mass deception is now even taking place. Even the very elect are being led astray. We're not watching history. We're watching prophecy being fulfilled.

Speaker 1: 28:09

And Jesus didn't say the end was immediate. He said the end would arrive in sequence. But when this sequence starts, believers, lift up your heads and look up for your redemption. Draw us now. Sinner friend, what he's saying to you is I stand at the door, knock today. I stand at the heart, your heart's door, and I knock. He's calling out to you by the convicting voice of the Holy Spirit, and if you're hearing that voice today, don't ignore it. Today is the day of salvation. Today is the day of salvation. Now is the time, because redemption is no longer on the way. It's at the door for believers, but redemption is at your heart's door now. Knocking in his name is Jesus Christ. No more delay. God is patient, but patience runs out, as scripture tells us.

Speaker 1: 29:13

If you look back in Genesis, chapter 6, the ark's door closed and the midnight cry is going to come, just as the parable of the wise and foolish virgins. The wise had all, but the foolish had only excuses. Jesus says in John 3, 36, he that believeth on the son hath everlasting life. I believe this is John the Baptist, not Jesus. Don't get me wrong there. I'm sorry. I said that John the Baptist. He said he that believeth on the son hath everlasting life and he, he that believeth not. The wrath of God abideth on him. If you think you have time to wait, you're trusting a calendar more than the cross of Calvary. Right now, wherever you're listening, eternity is pressing in.

Speaker 1: 30:15

Pray with me if you will right now and repent of your sins now. Repent and mean this in your heart and call out unto the Lord now and pray something like this from your heart today. Sinner friend, lord Jesus, I'm a sinner. Please forgive me of my sins. I believe you are the son of God. I repent of my sins. I believe you are risen from the dead. I accept your blood, your mercy, your grace. I surrender all to you right now. Take my life, take my heart, take my mind, take my body, make me new and make me whole and wash away all my sins. Save my soul today If you've prayed that prayer from your heart, truly repenting repentance means to turn from the world, turn from the sin that you're in and turn to Jesus.

Speaker 1: 31:10

Today, if you prayed that prayer truly from your heart, I want you to do me a favor Find you a solid Bible preaching church and be baptized. Baptism will not save you. You've just been saved if you prayed that prayer. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. It comes through repentance and faith. But baptism is an outward show of an inward change Shows you've died to sin, you've been buried and you're resurrected anew in Christ. As you come by the water, begin your walk with the Lord, because this hour is passing and soon the final call will sound Believers, preach like time is ending.

Speaker 1: 31:59

If you're a preacher, preach like the sky is about to split. If you're a believer, share like your neighbor's soul hangs in the balance. Your friend is a family. If you're a prodigal, come home before the lights go out. The hourglass is almost empty. The gospel still saves and Jesus still calls. This is Evangelist Jeff Thomas proclaiming that eternity is not theory, it's reality. Prepare your soul today, because soon time will be no more. Thank you for joining us today. I look forward to the next time we can share words from the word of God. God bless.
