00:24 Welcome to 3ABN's Fall Camp Meeting
00:27 Homecoming 2009. Featuring inspired messages 00:33 from your 3ABN family, along with uplifting Christian music 00:41 all to prepare your heart for the coming of the Lord. 00:45 I'm so excited about, it's what we're gonna hear tonight 00:48 because we are going to be listening to our pastor, 00:51 Pastor John Lomacang, a name we get to hear 00:54 quite often who not only is pastor of the 00:57 Thompsonville Seventh-Day Adventist church 01:00 but he is worldwide ambassador for Three Angels 01:04 Broadcasting Network. He has been to such places 01:08 as the Philippines in the last year 01:10 and Australia and all over. I'll tell you it's just a 01:17 tremendous asset to have John and Angie 01:21 as a part of this ministry 01:22 we love them, and John not only is a 01:25 fantastic preacher, but he is a fantastic singer. 01:29 And I'll tell you that we're gonna enjoy 01:32 hearing him sing tonight as well at the close 01:35 of his sermon, but before John comes 01:38 and brings us this message, we are going to hear 01:41 from Emily Felts Jones and she is going to be 01:45 singing. He Cries. 01:48 You know we often only think of Jesus is a baby 01:51 at Christmas time, but his birth should be spoken 01:56 of and sung about all year. 02:00 For, he was our savior and redeemer even then, 02:04 and I've often thought that when the baby Jesus cried 02:08 he wasn't crying for his own needs as other 02:11 babies do. He was crying for a lost and dying world. 02:16 And his Heavenly Father watched in enjoy and 02:19 unspeakable sadness because he knew 02:22 his son was born to die. And as he lay cradled 02:27 in his mother's arms he thought of us, 02:31 each one of us And he cried. 02:49 Star light, star bright, star shining in the night. 02:56 Angels we, voices see and prays of baby he, 03:03 but that little baby just won't talk to see it, 03:10 'coz he can't start counting sheep, tonight. 03:18 He cries, for the children who will never know his name. 03:25 He cries for the dying soul who didn't know he came. 03:31 And he cries for his mother as she holds his 03:37 tiny hand and his Father understands and He cries. 03:51 Hohoooo... Hmmmm... 03:58 Divine, sweet son, loves them for the design, 04:05 sacred one that have called the baby of God is born. 04:13 But, that little baby just who won't close his eyes. 04:20 He can't hear those love of bytes tonight. 04:27 'Coz he cries for the children who will never know his name, 04:34 he cries for the dying soul who didn't know he came 04:42 and he cries for his mother while she holds his tiny hand, 04:49 and his Father understands and He cries. 04:59 Heavens heart is breaking with every falling tear 05:05 and the sun goes around the universe 05:09 and all creation he is for when he cries 05:14 for the children who will never know his name, 05:19 he cries for the dying soul who didn't know he came 05:26 and he cries for his mother while she holds his tiny hand 05:34 and his Father understands and He cries. 05:43 Yes, His father understands and He cries. Ohoo, Hmmm. 06:16 Can we say Amen again? Amen. I really, really appreciate 06:20 Emily Felts Jones style of singing different. 06:24 You can't find that everywhere. 06:27 Because she doesn't just sing, she interprets 06:29 whatever she sings. Thank you again for that 06:33 message. Tonight is a beautiful evening 06:37 it's the Sabbath. The Lord has promised that 06:41 whenever we get together for the Sabbath and 06:43 anytime we gather, where two or more are there, 06:47 the Lord is in our presence and tonight 06:51 as we go to the Lord before we open his word. 06:53 I always like to ask for divine direction and divine 06:58 guidance. For I've been around long enough to 07:01 know that I don't have anything to say 07:03 outside of Jesus. And so tonight 07:06 I would like to invite you to bow your heads 07:07 with me as I ask for the Lord to turn the power on. 07:13 Heavenly Father, thank you so much that you 07:16 are able to form clay into a living being. 07:23 You are able to breath life into a vessel 07:27 that knows no such thing. Lord, this evening as I 07:32 submit myself to you, I pray that your spirit 07:35 will speak to me and through me. 07:38 That you may be glorified, in Jesus name I pray. Amen. 07:44 The message is entitled By Night. 07:46 What did I say? By Night. Good message to preach at night. 07:52 But it has a far more reaching application than 07:57 just the hour of the day. More specifically the hour 08:00 of earth's history. We are living in one of the 08:02 darkest times in our earth's history, I believe that. 08:06 And so we are going to begin with one of my 08:08 favorite books. The Book of John, 08:12 I'd like you to open your Bibles 08:14 if you have it with you tonight, 08:15 if you don't then share with your neighbor. 08:20 Because really it's God's word. 08:22 John's book, I did some research on the book 08:25 of John. I always like to know something about 08:26 the Bible writers. If you look at the 08:30 writer John, John is not only the one 08:32 that the Bible says whom Jesus loved. 08:35 But John was one of those disciples that 08:38 wanted to make it abundantly clear 08:41 about the divinity of Jesus. John is like the second 08:46 book of Genesis, as a matter of fact John 08:49 goes farther back then Genesis. Genesis says 08:52 in the beginning God created the heavens 08:54 and the earth. But John says in the beginning 08:57 was the word. Long before the world was 09:00 created, John says the word was there, 09:03 can you say Amen to that? Amen. And if there is going to 09:06 be any life in our beginnings, we need 09:08 to find Jesus there. John is one of those 09:11 Gospel writers that focuses on the perfect side of 09:16 Jesus. Now that seems to be a oxymoron because 09:18 there is nothing about Jesus that's not perfect. 09:21 But, he only talks about 7 miracles of Jesus. 09:25 And only 7 I am statements about Jesus. 09:30 But, he also points out that if there is going to be any 09:32 power in following Jesus. We've got to begin by 09:36 concluding that Jesus is divine. 09:41 That's a message that's being lost even in the 09:43 churches today. Jesus' divinity is under question 09:46 whether or not he is God or whether or not he can 09:48 create, that message is the message being questioned 09:52 today even in our churches. 09:55 So, in the beginning was the word, 09:57 we can begin there and so the anxious bystander 10:01 with John says John, if you can see what's happening 10:03 tell us what the future holds? And all you got to do 10:08 is listen to the news. There are a lot of people 10:10 that live in Thompsonville, that don't have televisions, 10:13 well I'm not one of them. I like to know what's 10:16 happening in the world around me to get ready 10:18 for the things that are coming, what do you say? 10:20 Now not to get enamored by the two, but to know 10:23 that what Jesus has said is going to take place as 10:27 he said it is. News agencies are closing 10:31 their doors, for the first time some on, 10:33 more than a 100 years are publishing their last 10:36 newspapers or their last magazines. 10:40 Real estate is on the landslide, car manufacturers 10:43 on the brink of bankruptcy. Banks are on the verge of 10:47 either collapse or merging to sustain themselves. 10:51 Insurance companies are on the threshold of failure 10:54 and no wonder when you think of all the disasters 10:56 in our world. How could they possibly 10:59 sustain all the natural disasters taking 11:02 place around us. But, it's an indication 11:04 that Jesus is soon to come, can you say, Amen. 11:07 He said you will hear wars and rumors of wars. 11:11 You don't need wars to bankrupt our country, 11:14 all you need is one more disaster on the heels 11:17 of another and right now even in the state of 11:19 Georgia. They are trying find an answer to their flood 11:22 in the major cities. In California, when one 11:25 fire ends, another begins. The only problem we 11:29 have here in Southern Illinois is bugs. 11:33 That's somewhat of a natural disaster, if you live here. 11:38 We fight that all the hours of the day. 11:40 Can you say, Amen if you're from Southern Illinois? 11:43 But, the world is on the border of financial 11:46 meltdown and when you listen the Dow 11:49 ends up one day, down the other. 11:51 And the fact of the matter is not even the White 11:54 House has an answer for the crisis on the financial 11:57 front of our world. And the Pope does his best 12:03 to try to find an answer. But, I would suggest 12:06 even the Pope needs Jesus. What do you say? 12:08 Amen! The world is on the 12:11 verge of one of the darkest hours. 12:14 Lights are going out on the job market. 12:16 Hope is growing dim on the real estate 12:18 market, faith is growing dark on the 12:21 stock market and we are quickly being 12:23 polarized into two groups. Those who have and 12:27 those who don't have. Those who are employed 12:30 and those who are not employed. 12:32 That's why if you work here at 3ABN you've 12:34 got to know that God is down here. 12:38 You missed the chance to say, Amen. 12:41 We are not rich, but we are sustained by 12:44 the grace and provision of Jesus. What do you say? 12:47 I mean how else can you explain that no one 12:49 had to be laid off and fired to sustain this economic 12:52 hit, it is only by God's grace, our bread and our water 12:56 shall be sure and by the way when the time of 12:58 trouble comes that's all you're gonna need, Amen. 13:01 But, God is sustaining this ministry, 13:03 God is sustaining his people and we've 13:05 got to see as John saw that the only hope 13:07 we have is in the divine one and his name is Jesus. 13:13 By the way there are only two groups that really 13:14 matter, those who know Jesus and those who 13:17 do not know Jesus. And you've got to 13:20 decide, which group is going to be your group 13:23 because there are only two seats at the 13:24 end of this journey. You've heard me say 13:25 this before, one seat is smoking, 13:28 one seat is non-smoking. I'll plan on being in the 13:31 non-smoking seat. What do you say? 13:34 Amen. When it comes to eternal life everything 13:38 natural falls short of acquiring it. 13:42 And by the way if eternal life were acquired by 13:43 money, wealth would be the aim 13:45 or by education or by degrees. 13:50 We would see colleges, but we need to see 13:52 Jesus because our colleges need Jesus. 13:55 Amen! Whether they're Adventists or 13:57 not they need Jesus. Can you say, Amen. 14:00 We are living at an hour where wealth and possessions 14:03 are becoming feudal at their best. 14:05 On the passing of some of the greatest names 14:07 that we know in our secular society. 14:10 Michael Jackson, they put a crown 14:16 on his coffin, not to be insensitive, 14:19 but I am looking forward to the day and I hope 14:22 that when Jesus comes he can put a crown on 14:24 Michael Jackson's head. I'm praying for that one, 14:28 because it's hard to live a life, 14:31 that does not exalt Jesus, and be coined another 14:35 king. There are so many kings on the earth. 14:36 But, there is only king that really matters. 14:38 What do you say? Amen! That's King Jesus. 14:40 So, you cannot determine who is king outside of 14:43 Jesus. John makes it very, very clear that the only 14:47 two categories that really matter are those 14:50 who are locked in sin or those who are 14:52 locked in Jesus. For the wages of 14:54 sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life. Amen! 14:58 And, I was raised in a family by the way that 15:00 really enjoyed flashlights. My father would walk 15:02 around the house during the day with a flashlight. 15:07 And even to this very day when I travel I carry 15:09 flashlights, I lost one in England because 15:11 I carried three, couldn't keep track of them all. 15:15 But, he taught me never to get caught on 15:17 the dark without a flashlight. I have one 15:19 in my bag in the back, if it gets dark I'll go get 15:21 my flashlight. Brethren, what I have 15:24 also discovered is that light is best appreciated 15:29 when our circumstances are the darkest. 15:32 What we need in these last days is to do what 15:35 Nicodemus did at the darkest hour of his life. 15:40 Nicodemus found Jesus. John chapter 3 in verse 1 15:44 made it very clear, how feudal personal 15:46 achievements and position and fame and fortune are, 15:51 because the only goal is really Jesus. 15:54 The Bible says there was a man of the 15:56 Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. 16:01 And I could spend the rest of the night carrying 16:03 on taking about rulers. When you talk about 16:07 rulers you have a problem at the very beginning. 16:11 And so I won't even give any any attention to the rulers, 16:13 but Nicodemus was a Pharisee, a member of the Sanhedrin 16:16 National Council. He feared coming to 16:19 Jesus by day and so the Bible said that Nicodemus 16:22 came to Jesus by night. You may fault him 16:26 for that, but I say this it's better to come to 16:29 Jesus by night, then not come at all. 16:30 Can you say Amen? Amen! 16:34 Choose your hour of the day, but come to Jesus 16:37 whatever hour that maybe. Nicodemus came to Jesus 16:41 by night and I've also discovered that there are 16:43 certain things that we should not attempt 16:45 to do at night. Number of years ago 16:48 I was in North Carolina, driving around 16:50 one of the army bases I don't mention, 16:52 which one it is, but I turn my headlights off 16:54 just to experiment. In a matter of few seconds, 16:59 I was surrounded by MP police. 17:03 And with their guns drawn they locked me in on both 17:06 ends just like that. And they said to me 17:10 what's wrong with you. And I said I'm just 17:12 experimenting. Brethren, it's not 17:16 good to turn your lights off at night to experiment. 17:19 What do you say? It's not safe to drive at 17:22 night with your headlights off. 17:24 Because the road that was safe with your lights on 17:27 is now impossible to follow. The landmarks are 17:31 no longer distinct. And the signs are not as 17:34 clear as they are when the lights are on. 17:37 And Ellen White tells us in Medical Ministry page 87 17:41 that scientific theories are coming in as a 17:45 thief in the night. Stealing away the landmarks 17:48 and undermining the pillars of our faith. 17:50 We've got to be careful what we allow to 17:53 come into our church. Can you say Amen? 17:55 Amen! We've got to be careful 17:56 what we allow to come in to our schools. 18:00 Because people are turning their lights off and 18:01 all they are saying is we're experimenting. 18:05 And you know somebody is driving with their 18:07 lights off when they think that the Sabbath is 18:08 no longer relevant to Jesus. Somebody is driving with 18:12 their lights off when they think that the 18:13 answer to lethargy is a change in our worship style. 18:16 The answer is only Jesus. What do you say? 18:18 Amen! Somebody's got their 18:21 headlights off when they think they are throwing out 18:22 the writings of Ellen White are necessary. 18:26 I could have said my favorite writer or the 18:28 prophetic inspiration, but I wanted to be clear. 18:32 Somebody say Amen. Amen! 18:34 We often put her on the side you know my 18:36 favorite writer. Who is that? 18:39 That could be Shakespeare. One of my favorite 18:43 writers outside of the Bible is Ellen White. 18:45 What do you say? Amen! If you wanted to know what's 18:47 gonna be in the newspaper tomorrow open up the 18:49 great controversy. Amen! People have thrown them in 18:53 the garbage you better find that where they are 18:55 throwing it and go get it to read it. Amen! 18:57 Because there is nobody who has been inspired 19:00 and filled by God's spirit like that third grade 19:05 educated lady by the name of Ellen White. 19:09 And some people say that she only had a third 19:11 grade education. She did not understand 19:13 Greek and Hebrew. God understands 19:15 Greek and Hebrew. That's all that matters. 19:17 Can you say Amen? Amen! 19:18 Somebody once came to me said well now I don't wanna 19:20 get you to so discouraged that you may leave the 19:23 church. I said there is nothing you can tell me to 19:25 get me to leave the church and so they sat me down 19:27 and gave me pages and pages of what they thought 19:32 were apparent contradictions by Ellen White. 19:35 And they hit me with one that I had known about 19:37 before, but I tell you what, whenever you need help 19:40 call on Jesus. Amen! And so being raised in 19:43 New York City, I was once a target of the shepherd's rod, 19:47 which drove me back to studying what Ellen White had 19:49 said and so when they came to me with that 19:52 I call it ecclesiastical foolishness. 19:57 They thought I was not prepared, so I said well 19:59 tell me what you have to say about Ellen White. 20:00 They said well, Ellen White did not like bicycles. 20:02 I said no she liked bicycles. 20:05 She just told a man who was wasting money on a bike. 20:08 That, that was not God's will. Amen. Amen! 20:10 Well, Ellen White did not, she contradicted the Bible. 20:13 The Bible says the fig tree, she says the sycamore tree. 20:16 Well the Greek word is Ficus Sycomorus they are 20:18 both right. Can you say, Amen? We got to get back to the 20:25 place where we treasure, what makes us a 20:27 distinct people. Amen! 20:30 Reading everybody else' books because it is 20:32 on the New York Times best sellers list. 20:35 Well if it's not on God's list it doesn't 20:37 belong in our list. Getting back to the 20:40 landmarks that God has given to us, but some 20:42 people say that, you know I'm riding on the road 20:45 and even though my headlights are off. 20:47 It feels like the same road. Well Brethren, whether 20:50 you know it or not. The feeling maybe the same 20:53 but the circumstances make your traveling deceptive, 20:55 because if you don't have any lights on you cannot 20:57 see and feeling is not reliable. 21:01 Because it feels better does not mean it's better. 21:03 Because it feels right does not mean it's right. 21:05 Because it feels good does not mean it's good. 21:08 Because it feels safe does not mean it's safe. 21:14 As a matter of fact it's neither the road nor the 21:17 vehicle, it's the driver that's why we need to say like 21:21 that song writer Jesus, take the wheel. 21:25 You didn't hear that song. That's alright, if you didn't 21:28 hear it that's okay. As long as you know Jesus. 21:32 There is a fourth thing that we ought not try to 21:34 do at night time. You see when you drive 21:37 with your lights off you may cross the line 21:40 and not know it. When preachers are and 21:45 leaders are turning off the light, they are crossing 21:48 the line and they don't even know it. 21:51 And I hate to say it, but some of our schools 21:53 are turning off the light, crossing the line and not 21:56 even knowing it. But, let me just say this 21:58 very clearly, if Motel 6 is committed 22:02 to keep the light on, we ought to be committed 22:04 to the same thing. What do you say? 22:05 Amen! They're just giving you a bed 22:08 for the night, Jesus is getting us a kingdom 22:10 for eternity, what do you say? Amen! 22:12 Keep the light on. So, Nicodemus had everything 22:17 except common sense. He came to Jesus, 22:20 he had wealth, he had position, 22:22 he had influence, he had power, 22:24 he had education. He was a man who was 22:27 influential and his voice had power in every circle, 22:30 but Nicodemus did not have courage because 22:33 he cared about what people thought rather than 22:36 what Jesus thought. Look at verse 2. 22:41 This is amazing insight to me and I prayed 22:43 about this verse. Nicodemus said to him Rabbi, we know 22:46 that you are a teacher come from God. 22:49 For no one can do these things that you do 22:51 unless God is with you. Now that may sound 22:56 like a complement, but Nicodemus actually 22:58 insulted Jesus. He called him a teacher 23:02 from God, he lowered Jesus from the son of God 23:05 to a teacher from God. Now, Brethren there is a 23:09 difference between a teacher from God and the Son of God. 23:11 Let me just say what the difference is, 23:14 when you begin to teach evolution you are lowering 23:17 Jesus to just a teacher from God. 23:21 When you teach that the literal seven day week 23:24 did not occur, then Jesus is no longer the creator. 23:29 He is just a teacher from God, we've got 23:31 to pray that we get back to the creation message. 23:34 What do you say? Amen! 23:35 Without the creation message, we have no Sabbath. 23:38 That's why Satan is experimenting in our schools 23:40 to try to get people to. Say, well it was not really 23:42 seven days. Some people say it was 7000 years. 23:45 Brethren, a thousand years I'm so glad that 24 hours 23:49 is not a seven thousand year period. 23:50 Can you say Amen? Amen! 23:52 The word is and the evening and the morning were 23:55 the first day, not just the day. 23:58 I would like to see a plant that could last for 23:59 3500 years with no life. That's the reason why 24:06 our churches are dying. And people losing their way 24:10 instead of holding Jesus up we are keeping Jesus down. 24:14 Notice what John says in John 12 in verse 32. 24:17 Jesus says if I be lifted up, I will draw all 24:22 men unto myself. People are bringing Jesus 24:25 down instead of lifting him up. 24:26 We've got to lift Jesus up. What do you say? 24:29 Amen! Because it doesn't matter 24:30 what you believe because Nicodemus had all the 24:32 right habits. We would otherwise says about him 24:35 Nicodemus studied the prophecies 24:37 about the Messiah. Nicodemus was in the crowd 24:42 when John the Baptist introduced Jesus. 24:44 Being in the crowd is not enough, understanding 24:49 the prophecies are not enough. 24:51 Nicodemus kept track of Jesus for three years. 24:55 Nicodemus was impressed by the teachings and the 24:57 authority of Jesus. Nicodemus heard the 25:01 people discussing the divinity of Jesus. 25:05 But, let me say this having the facts about Jesus 25:07 is not conversion. We got lot of facts about 25:12 Jesus, but some of us still need to be converted 25:14 come on and say Amen? Amen! 25:16 When you come to church on Sabbath morning and 25:18 one beat each other up, you need to be converted. 25:21 You think that down hill, we don't have our wars. 25:23 We have our wars. The devil camps out in 25:27 Southern Illinois and why not? Because the world 25:31 is effected by what happens down here. 25:33 Wouldn't you camp down here if you were the devil? 25:36 Don't say Amen!. Nicodemus had all the 25:42 facts about Jesus and by the way a good Bible 25:45 study habit is not conversion. 25:47 Hanging out with religious people is not conversion. 25:49 Keeping track of Jesus in not conversion, being 25:52 impressed by Jesus is not conversion. 25:54 Knowing that Jesus is divine is not even conversion. 25:59 The new birth experience calls us to abandon 26:02 who we are and accept who Jesus is. Amen! 26:05 I remember when I was in the New York City. 26:06 I tried to find a church that will allow me to be 26:08 a disc jockey and still be saved. 26:12 Pastor Seay could tell you about that. 26:14 I'd wake up when he preached on Sabbath 26:16 mornings in our youth church their in Brooklyn, New York. 26:19 Came to church and almost broke my neck nodding 26:22 through the sermon. Now I get on peoples 26:24 case for nodding during my sermons. 26:27 I need to give you a break because I don't know 26:29 where you are with Jesus. 26:33 But, I would say that I would rather you nod in 26:35 church then stay awake out of church. 26:37 Amen! Because one day through the 26:39 preaching of Elder E. T. Mims the Lord broke through. 26:42 I could have said Pastor Seay there but it was through Elder 26:45 E. T. Mims when he discontinued our 26:47 youth church, remember that? Made us all come down 26:50 stairs in the church together, large 1200 member 26:53 church coming there Sabbath after Sabbath 26:55 because my girlfriend, who is now my wife 26:57 and by the way, who is still my girlfriend. 26:59 Can you say Amen? Amen! 27:01 Kept bringing me to church every Sabbath 27:04 I just got home from partying. 27:08 And she would come and throw pebbles at my window 27:10 to wake me up and go get my clothes ready as my 27:13 dad made me go take a shower and she sure 27:15 I was in church every Sabbath because I was 27:17 living by night and she was trying to lead me 27:19 back to the day, would to God that we had the same 27:22 passion to reach people for Jesus. 27:24 Amen! Some of the young people 27:25 say there is nobody in the church to marry 27:27 Well you are not looking long enough. 27:30 You got to look a little more, if not in your church, go 27:32 to another Adventist church, exhaust all the 27:36 Adventist churches before you got on the world. 27:37 Amen somebody? Amen! 27:39 You know, we look at some people in church look like 27:42 you know some of the young girls say, Well he 27:43 don't look like marrying material. 27:46 Give him sometime, I didn't look like marrying 27:48 material either. My wife tells me now, she 27:51 says when we were dating you used to wear same 27:53 thing for three days. I say, well I have changed now 27:57 can you say Amen. I don't wear the same thing 28:01 and I look at, I've looked back at some of those 28:03 pictures in the 70s, you know what I am 28:04 talking about. When we did not know a thing 28:06 about matching clothes, we were plaid with stripes 28:11 and I remember one day driving to somebody's house 28:14 in Southern California I had on stripe, 28:16 I had on plaid shorts and stripe socks and they 28:20 looked at me says, what's your problem. 28:23 It's amazing what the Lord can do when he comes 28:25 into your life. Amen. You can even look different. 28:30 What a change can be made in our lives. 28:32 Knowing all the facts about Jesus is not all that 28:35 it takes to become a Christian. 28:38 When we are born again we've got to 28:40 accept the truth about ourselves. 28:41 Let's look at the truth about ourselves. 28:42 Go with me to Jeremiah chapter 17, let's see the 28:45 truth about ourselves tonight. 28:47 I like God's word, it's very clear, but I tell you what? 28:50 When the doctor gives you a diagnosis it better be 28:53 clear, so that the medicine really makes a difference. 28:58 Jesus gives us a spiritual diagnosis, in this text 29:02 sometimes it is difficult for us, when I first saw 29:05 the text I didn't think it was true about me. 29:06 Because you know sometimes we look at what Jesus 29:09 says about us and we look at people around us 29:11 rather than look at ourselves. 29:13 But, notice what the Bible says about the true 29:15 condition of those who are not yet born 29:19 again and I must say that this is sometimes 29:22 still true even after you are born again because 29:25 you still don't know your heart. 29:26 Notice what the Bible says Jeremiah 17 verse 9, 29:29 the Bible says the heart is what brethren, 29:32 deceitful above all things and desperately wicked 29:36 who can know it? We had a church member one 29:39 Sabbath came to church with a baseball bat. 29:44 New convert that needed to be converted. 29:49 Came to church with a baseball bat to beat 29:51 up one of the Deacons. Big Deacon. 29:56 I want to make the picture really clear, it was a, well 29:59 let me just be very kind, it was a deacon 30:02 and a lady, now let me to say this, women may not 30:06 say whole a lot, but they mean what they say. 30:09 And she came to church and I am glad that 30:11 she had the decency to notify the pastor 30:14 before she attacked the deacon. 30:16 Showed me her small Louisville slugger 30:18 and she said pastor I'm gonna beat up the deacon 30:20 and we got and surrounded that deacon 30:23 that deacon was about 240 pounds, but he needed 30:25 protection, some people come to church 30:28 on Sabbath morning, they maybe in the right building, 30:31 but they are not in the right frame of mind. 30:33 And the reason is because the heart is deceitful above 30:36 all things and desperately wicked. 30:39 And sometimes even in church while you're praying 30:41 your mind is somewhere else. Amen. 30:44 Notice the difference when Jesus comes into your life, 30:46 Ezekiel chapter 36, go there with me, 30:48 verse 26 and verse 27. Lord makes it very clear 30:53 and I do believe that when you have Jesus in your life 30:57 there should be a difference between who you were 30:59 and who you are? 31:06 and I do believe that Jesus can give you victory over 31:09 anything. Even cigarettes. 31:14 Can I say Amen! Even cigarettes. 31:18 My mother when she got converted 31:20 you some of you read the story. 31:21 My mother was a three pack a day cigarette smoker. 31:27 When I met her, she was about 94 pounds dripping wet, 31:30 out of her mind, did not know which way was up. 31:38 you could see confusion in her face. I kept writing 31:42 to her to say, mom you need to give your life to Jesus. 31:44 Mom you need to turn your life over to Lord. 31:45 Mom, go to a church and have somebody pray for you 31:48 to you be delivered and one day she took me seriously and 31:50 found a pastor down there in the Virgin Islands 31:53 and went to ask him to pray for her to be delivered 31:55 and I do believe that when you reach out in faith 31:57 God honors true faith. Amen! 32:00 They got together that afternoon 32:02 and by the way I want to say this, it doesn't 32:04 have to be an Adventist pastor if they know Jesus 32:06 they can pray for deliverance too. Amen! 32:10 This pastor got together with her 32:11 wasn't an Adventist pastor and he prayed for her to be 32:15 delivered and I got a call from my mother one day 32:17 her voice sounded light. I said Mom, 32:22 are you okay? She said well I just got 32:24 some good news to tell you. I haven't smoked in the last 32:25 three months. Amen! The Lord delivered her from alcohol 32:30 and cigarettes at the same moment 32:32 and for the rest of her life, didn't need a patch, 32:39 didn't need to wean her way off her alcohol and 32:41 cigarettes. Jesus still has the power to deliver. Amen! 32:44 He says in Ezekiel, I will give you a new heart 32:49 chapter 36 in verse 26. I will give you what kind 32:52 of a heart? A new heart and put a what 32:55 new spirit within you. I will take the heart 32:58 of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. 33:03 I will put my spirit within you and cause you 33:07 to walk in my statutes, and you will keep my judgments 33:12 and do them. And by the way 33:14 you can't even keep the commandments of God 33:16 without the Holy Spirit. 33:19 And you know you can even eat right without the Holy Spirit. 33:21 Now, get what I'm saying you may eat right, 33:25 but ain't right while you're eating. 33:29 You didn't get that. 33:31 Nicodemus had a pig free diet. He wouldn't even 33:37 catch the swine flu, he stayed so far from pigs. 33:41 But his heart wasn't right and the Lord is concerned 33:43 about our diet. Praise God for the health message. 33:46 Widely important message, you got to be healthy 33:48 to carry the Gospel, but if that's all you have 33:51 you need somebody else in that equation. 33:54 You need Jesus. 33:56 The Lord says, I will put, I will give you the strength 33:59 to walk in my statues. When I met my mother 34:02 she called me one day and she says, Oh! By the way 34:04 I am not only not smoking, but I found a new love. 34:07 I like to eat. 34:11 She was 55 or 57 years old and she said now, 34:15 I hope you don't mind when you met me 34:16 I was a size zero, I am a size 10 now, 34:18 is that okay. If the Lord has to add some weight to you 34:22 to save you, that's okay. Amen! 34:26 And don't get so enamored by your shape. 34:28 You're gonna look different when you get to heaven 34:30 anyway. Can you say Amen. Amen! 34:31 Somebody trying to beat health, 34:33 so beat the way you look. 34:35 I told you, I gave up the battle 34:37 I get tempted every now and then 34:38 to get me some just for men. 34:43 And every now and then, my wife will put her hand through 34:45 my hair after I wash it because you know right now 34:47 it's hard as a helmet. 34:49 And she say honey, I just like the way your hair 34:52 looks, that's silver gray, and I thought you know what. 34:54 The Bible says the honor of an old man is his gray hair. 34:58 Amen! Come on you gray hair people say Amen! 35:00 So, I said you know what my church members gave me 35:03 gray hair, I need to let them know that, 35:06 but it also says that as you get older, 35:08 you get wiser and that wisdom 35:10 is what we don't have naturally. 35:15 It's what God allows us to acquire through 35:18 our experiences. 35:21 But you know what you can even have 35:22 gray hair, if you don't have Jesus that's not enough. 35:26 And some people are getting nipped here and tucked there 35:28 and augmented here and lifted there. 35:30 Brethren, we all on the way to the grave, no matter 35:32 what you look like. 35:35 You can have a complete make over, 35:37 but your DNA will remind you how you really looked. 35:41 Some people have kids, that look completely different 35:43 from them. 35:44 Because they been so plasticized that when their 35:46 kids come out they remember what they used to look like? 35:50 Leave it to Jesus. Can you say Amen! 35:52 Let the Lord give you the real birth, the new birth, 35:55 that's why he looked at Nicodemus 35:56 and said you must be born again. 36:01 You know, you need more sermons like that. Sometimes, 36:04 we go to the Pope and we would like to philosophize 36:06 and try to intellectually stimulate individuals. 36:09 People say I like intellectual stimulation. 36:11 Jesus doesn't mind that, but remember there is nobody 36:14 more intellectual than Jesus. Amen! 36:17 And Jesus says you must be born again, 36:19 anybody in the fifth grade could understand that. 36:21 You must be born again and the new birth experience there's 36:25 something else for us. It gives us the eyes of Jesus. 36:28 You know why because Paul says the natural man 36:30 does not receive the things of the spirit of God 36:32 for they are foolishness to him. 36:34 He can't see them, he cannot know them 36:36 for they are spiritually discerned. 36:39 So, to be born again means to understand, to detect 36:42 to tell the difference. Brethren, when people say 36:44 I don't see anything wrong with, 36:48 that's an indication that they are not born again. Now, 36:50 could I be plain, because I may not get the preacher on 36:53 Friday for another 10 years. Can I be plain. 36:56 Can you give me an Amen. Amen! 36:58 Brethren when you say that you can't see anything wrong 37:01 with putting on the world, whether it is in the way 37:05 you dress or the way you ornament yourself. 37:08 You are not born again. Amen! 37:09 Now, that's not a personal attack 37:12 that's the word of Jesus. Because Jesus, 37:16 the only thing we put on when we put on Jesus, 37:19 is we put on the Lord Jesus Christ. 37:21 That's not a very popular message by the way, 37:24 but you know what, when I get to heaven, I rather walk 37:29 on gold than wear gold. Amen! And if your a threat to 37:33 heaven, you ain't gonna be going to heaven, breaking up 37:35 the streets. 37:37 Can you imagine somebody trying to snatch 37:39 your gate of pearl to wear it. 37:41 You got to have an awfully large head to do that, 37:45 so get that issue squared away down here. 37:47 Somebody ought to say Amen to that. Amen! 37:49 So, you got to see when you look at God's word 37:52 it opens your eyes. I always say to people 37:54 if something that God's word offends you 37:56 then you need to get on your knees and pray. 37:58 Because if I open my map and it gets me upset 38:01 I don't need to be on the road, am I clear. 38:07 Is that a little bit of apostasy 38:09 ecclesiastical, a bit of dictum, is that what call it. 38:13 If your map upsets you then you need 38:15 to know the one who wrote that map. 38:17 And by the way the map, God's word is reliable. 38:19 I've had to do a whole lot of things 38:21 differently when I open up the map. 38:24 And every now and then those things 38:26 try to creep back into your life, you know what I am 38:27 talking about. 38:29 Oh! Yeah, you put that music down many years ago and 38:31 all of a sudden you hear it on the radio 38:32 and you just, that rhythm comes back. 38:35 Depends on what era you're from, if it is the 40s, 38:38 you know what I am talking about. 38:40 Now, all of a sudden they tell you that 38:42 well you know the golden collection 38:44 all of Elvis favorite hits and look at your wife 38:47 and says honey we don't have that, 38:49 we need to keep that even though we are not gonna play. 38:50 Let's get the notes for posterity and before you know 38:54 it, it ain't posterity you have the problem. 38:56 Well I know what I'm talking about sometimes 38:58 you know XM satellite radio we got all these new frankel 39:00 motions, but I am thinking what I am learning 39:02 is, the devil is trying to find new ways to get in. 39:06 He got us so electronically connected 39:09 that we are really, we are really 39:11 in the, what do they call it, the world wide web. 39:17 Spinning it all around us, getting at us all 39:20 webbed in there. 39:21 Filling our minds with things that don't matter and 39:24 every now and then you know I, I must confess. 39:30 You ought to say you confess too. 39:33 Don't look at me like you don't know 39:34 what I am talking about. 39:36 Some of you forgot to change the station, go on that car 39:38 and now turn on, you see what I am talking about. 39:41 Every now and then that old stuff comes back 39:44 and you begin to reminist, 39:46 what you used to be when you heard it. 39:47 You know, what I am talking about. 39:48 Remember that, remember that honey 39:50 we were are, you know you go back 25, 40 years 39:52 and all of sudden the Lord taps on you 39:55 when somebody beeps their car horn when 39:57 you almost run off the road, 39:58 listen to that stuff, you shouldn't listen to. 40:03 That's why Nicodemus needed to be born again. 40:06 He came to Jesus in an awful condition 40:09 and by the way because we look good 40:11 does not say a whole lot about our spiritual condition 40:14 because God is not impressed by the outside. 40:16 God looks on the heart. Can you say, Amen! 40:19 And let me add something to those people 40:21 that still be struggling in some areas. 40:22 You may not have worn a stitched Jewelry, 40:25 but that does not mean you don't need to be converted. 40:33 Oh! That's a real quite subject. 40:37 When Nicodemus met Jesus he asked the most ridiculous 40:41 question. How can a man be born when he is old. 40:45 I am glad that we can be born again at any age. Amen. 40:49 On Sabbath, two older people came 40:50 here and they're now members of our church. 40:52 They're not here tonight, I'm not gonna mention their 40:54 names, but I remember they were well in their 70's. 40:57 I don't know if they are in their 80's, but I would 40:59 just give them the 70s, but he said, he said to me 41:01 how old is too old to be baptized, and I said 41:03 you can ask me the question you are not too old. 41:07 And they're baptized members here now, 41:09 Amen. If you need Jesus, it's never too late. 41:12 If you can move and think you can be baptized. 41:16 Nicodemus asked a ridiculous question 41:19 and you notice that Nicodemus must have failed 41:21 biology because he says can a man enter a second time. 41:26 Not only was he ridiculous, but 41:28 Jesus didn't fall for that bay, 41:31 which was a lesson to me. You know sometimes, 41:32 we get caught up in those conversations 41:34 that don't amount to a hell beans, 41:36 and I have discovered truly there are 41:38 some foolish questions. 41:40 You know what we always say there is no stupid question, 41:42 there are some ridiculous questions because 41:43 this was ridiculous and Jesus did not get drawn 41:46 in by it Jesus didn't answer it. 41:49 Can a man be born again when he is old, can he enter 41:52 a second time, Jesus ignored 41:55 the question and by the way there are some people 41:56 that have some ridiculous questions on house calls. 41:58 John and I know that, we get some crazy questions 42:01 like for example. 42:03 What was the color of Adam, I say multicolor, Amen! 42:10 No matter what color you are. I mean look at all of us, 42:12 we got the same dad. Come on say Amen family. 42:17 Then they asked did Abel marry his sister? Maybe, 42:20 but he better not marry yours. 42:23 He said, what color was Jesus? Divine. 42:26 So, we got steps to cry for the black Jesus 42:29 and a white Jesus and they got a Filipino Jesus 42:32 in the Philippines and a German Jesus in Germany. 42:35 Brothers, this is the same Jesus. Amen. 42:38 Stressing about all that 42:39 race relation stuff, get off your high horse. 42:42 Jesus loves you no matter what country you're from, 42:45 because you are not going back to that country. 42:46 You are going to a heavenly country. Amen! 42:49 And somebody else asked, how many wise men were there? 42:52 I would say enough. 42:55 And was Jesus in the tomb 72 hours? Now all that matters 42:59 is he is not there now. Can you say, Amen! 43:01 All that stuff don't make a difference. 43:03 See human diversion is the enemy of divine 43:07 conversion, intellectual satisfaction is 43:10 DNA of heart sanctification. 43:12 God wants to get to the heart, he wants to convert 43:14 us, but we want to spend all that time 43:16 asking questions that don't mean anything. 43:20 That's why Jesus told a religious man, 43:22 he told the law keeping clean meat eating Pharisee 43:26 that he couldn't see. How insulting? 43:30 And by the way, Jesus has the right to insult us. 43:36 That's why he said Nicodemus again do not marvel, 43:39 he didn't say it once, he said it twice, 43:41 don't be surprised, you got to be born again. 43:44 Some folks are trying to make it to the kingdom 43:46 by just church membership, no it is not church membership. 43:48 You got to be born again. 43:52 I never forget one of my ministerial directors, 43:54 I won't tell you which one, but he said to me 43:55 when he was doing a evangelistic series 43:57 after being a pastor for seven years, 43:58 he got converted. 44:02 So, because you are in church don't necessarily 44:04 mean you've converted. 44:05 You can know the message inside out, 44:07 you are still need to be converted. Amen. 44:09 That's just intellectual knowledge. 44:11 And that's what when Nicodemus got to Jesus 44:13 as intellectual as he was he met somebody 44:16 who was more than his match. 44:18 Isaiah said my thoughts are not your thoughts, 44:20 my ways are not your ways, as high as the heavens 44:23 are above the earth, so are my ways 44:26 above your ways and my thoughts 44:27 above your thoughts. Don't try to match wits with Jesus 44:30 and by the way don't try to make 44:32 deals with Jesus either. 44:34 Some people say Lord, if you do then 44:35 I will. You got to own something to negotiate 44:39 with Jesus, you know what I'm saying, what do you own? 44:42 If you want to see what you own, see 44:43 what do you brought into the world when you came into it. 44:46 See what you take out when you leave. 44:48 You may get married or buried with your bank book, 44:51 but you are not gonna spend any money anywhere. 44:53 I just heard of a man who went to funeral 44:56 one day and he passed by the coffin 44:58 and there was a guy in their very, very wealthy, 45:00 all of this money was around him and he paused 45:03 at the coffin longer than anybody else. 45:07 He looked down, he took out his checkbook 45:09 and wrote a check and put the check 45:11 and then took the cash. 45:14 He said when you get to where you're 45:16 going. My check is good. 45:19 You got to use it now for Jesus. 45:21 You are not taking it with you. Can you say, Amen. 45:23 Amen! You know, that's why you have to try 45:26 to get this thing clear. You see researchers are 45:29 still trying to figure out how the world was made. 45:32 I got the answer, Jesus. Can you say, Amen. 45:35 Doctors are still trying to understand how 45:37 disease can disappear, the answer is simple Jesus. 45:41 Some are still trying to figure out how nine tens 45:44 can go further then ten tens, Jesus. 45:48 You got to buy into the plan by the way 45:50 and some people don't know how 45:52 red people, yellow people, black people, 45:54 and white people can work together down here 45:56 in Southern Illinois and not kill each other. Jesus. 46:00 Amen! If we can get along down here, 46:02 we can get along everywhere, by the way 46:04 can we all just get alone. Amen! 46:08 Some are trying to understand how a ministry 46:10 with almost no money in the bank 46:13 could wrap the globe in more than 11 satellites 46:16 and survive for 25 years. I got the answer 46:18 Jesus. What you say, Amen! 46:20 And no offense to any, but some 46:21 people are still trying to figure out 46:23 how a man who can only be a carpenter has 46:25 one blind eye could do all this. 46:28 Jesus. What do you say. Amen. 46:31 When God has people that are walking by 46:33 faith and not by sight he can do anything. 46:38 Don't look at yourself as incapable, that's 46:40 what Nicodemus thought, he had it all, 46:42 but by the way he found that he didn't have 46:44 what Jesus wanted to give to him. 46:46 That's why sometimes we got to 46:48 be pruned before we can grow. 46:50 We got to be cut down before we can stand up. 46:53 God has to cleanse the stream before the water is pure. 46:56 He has got to close our mouths 46:57 sometimes to teach us what to say Amen! 47:00 Amen! When he finally got through to Nicodemus 47:02 by the way, I would have loved to 47:04 have been Nicodemus because the Lord revealed 47:07 to Nicodemus all of our favorite Bible verse. 47:11 It was Nicodemus that God, the God of the Universe 47:15 burst that verse, for God so loved the world. 47:18 It was Nicodemus who had that privilege of hearing 47:20 that verse for the first time. 47:23 That God so loved the world. Nicodemus is in all our lives. 47:26 We just did not know it was him. 47:28 That God so loved the world, he said to Nicodemus 47:30 that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever 47:32 and even you Nicodemus, you Pharisee. 47:35 Even you can saved if you love the Lord. 47:38 Whosoever, I am a whosoever what about you. 47:41 Amen! That whosoever believeth in 47:43 him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 47:48 That's why salvation is not even doing the right thing, 47:52 but doing the right thing can only happen if 47:54 you're in a saving relationship with Jesus. 47:58 Tonight, Brethren don't get caught off guard by what's 48:01 happening in the world. 48:03 Don't get discouraged about the terrorist 48:05 scares and all that stuff. 48:06 You know what Jesus is not going to allow us 48:09 to destroy ourselves with nuclear weapons. 48:11 Can you say Amen. Amen! The Gospel is going to go 48:15 to the entire world, you know, why? Jesus said that. 48:19 Amen! One day Nicodemus along with us is going 48:22 to meet the Jesus that he didn't believe could 48:24 do anything, but I want to say tonight 48:26 with Jesus all things are possible. 48:28 When Nicodemus get in front of Jesus 48:30 one day he is gonna finally see that 48:31 Jesus can deliver like he said, 48:33 he could and by the way 48:34 this is what's gonna happen on that day. 48:36 Sin is going to be eradicated, death, 48:38 will be terminated, Satan will be annihilated. 48:41 Politics will be eliminated, world will be assassinated, 48:44 hate will be obliterated, sorrow will be terminated, 48:47 sinners will be extricated 48:49 and Jesus will be vindicated. Can you say, Amen! 48:52 Amen! On that day, the Lord is gonna show 48:54 Nicodemus really whose incharge 48:57 because some of us think that we are just like 48:59 that young man. 49:00 I have come to the place where 49:01 I'm getting older and getting smarter, that's a good thing. 49:05 What you say. Amen. 49:06 It'd be sad to get older and get more foolish, 49:10 but I am getting older and I am getting wiser 49:12 and I have discovered that it's no longer 49:14 about me it's about Jesus. Amen! 49:16 And so, when you get to that place 49:18 when you discover somebody who can do all that he 49:20 says he can do for you even trials don't make a 49:23 whole lot of difference to me any longer 49:24 and by the way you know what 49:26 if you're in a trail make sure that Jesus 49:29 is in that trial with you. Amen! 49:31 Because we have one of the darkest hours 49:33 of our earth's history and it's only going to get darker 49:36 by the moment. So, is there a Nicodemus 49:41 here tonight, need to born again. 49:44 You don't even know that. 49:46 Unless the Holy Spirit convicts your heart 49:48 of that, but I want to give you the answer 49:50 to the question, you know, all over the world its night. 49:53 This is hour that we need to continue 49:56 proclaiming that Jesus is coming again. 50:01 Don't get distracted by the conference, 50:03 by the union, by the schools, by the churches, 50:06 by the pastor, keep your eyes fixed on Jesus. 50:09 Amen. The author and finisher of your faith. 50:12 Fix it there and when you fix it there 50:15 what happens around you really 50:17 wouldn't make a difference. 50:19 I heard the story of a man who 50:20 was one day going to be sentenced to death. 50:22 He only had one chance to have himself 50:25 vindicated and released and so the king said to him. 50:28 If you can walk from here to the gallows 50:30 without spilling a drop of milk from that cup 50:33 you will be set free. And so he began his journey, 50:37 a two mile journey from the castle to the gallows. 50:42 If he drop one drop of milk he would have been condemned. 50:48 I want you to know for the first time in his life 50:50 he took his eyes off of the people around him. 50:56 We need to have our eyes fixed on Jesus like 50:59 that man had his eyes fixed on that milk. 51:03 When he made it all the way to that gallows 51:06 he looked up and realized 51:08 that because he didn't drop a single drop 51:11 he was going to be vindicated. Well, tonight 51:14 friends our salvation is not on a drop of milk, 51:16 it's in a drop of blood. What do you say, Amen! 51:19 I believe tonight as I sing the song 51:21 I believe that the difference is all because 51:23 what happened on the cross. I want to encourage you 51:26 that Jesus is soon to come, I want to encourage you 51:29 to keep your eyes fixed on Jesus 51:30 because what he did on that cross 51:33 made all the difference to the end of our story. 51:37 Listen to this song. 51:50 I believe in a hill called Mount Calvary, Amen, and 52:01 I believe whatever the cost And when time has surrendered 52:19 And this all earth is no more 52:23 I'll still cling to that old rugged, yet, cross 52:36 I believe that this life with its great mysteries 52:47 Surely someday will come to an end 52:56 oh, but faith will conquer all the darkness and death 53:09 And will lead at last to my friend 53:20 yes, I believe that the Christ Who was slain on that cross 53:33 Has the power to change the lives today 53:42 For He changed me completely and a new life is mine 53:55 And that is why by the cross I will stay 54:05 and yes I believe in that hill called Mount Calvary 54:16 can you say that my brothers, and I believe in whatever 54:24 the cost and time has surrendered 54:35 And this whole earth is no more, I'll still cling to that 54:45 old rugged-end of Cross. Amen. 55:09 Tonight, I want to pray that the message 55:14 of the cross is not lost on us. 55:19 It was until not Nicodemus stood at the cross 55:22 that he realized what Jesus was saying that 55:24 night, you must be born again. 55:28 He was born again at the foot of the cross. 55:31 He was the man that the Lord 55:33 used to finance most of the evangelistic 55:36 outreach for the new testament church. 55:39 Did God have a plan for his life? 55:41 God has a plan for our lives tonight. 55:45 We are not wasted on the message of the cross. 55:47 Jesus did not waste his blood and when he comes again 55:50 we are going to see the efficacy of the blood 55:52 that Jesus shed, but tonight I want to pray 55:55 that if there is a Nicodemus in us. 55:58 We can find the new birth before Jesus comes 56:00 again. Would you bow your heads with me. 56:02 Our Heavenly Father, we thank you so much, 56:04 that tonight the blood that was available 56:09 to Nicodemus on that lonely evening there 56:13 in the audience of the divine one. 56:16 Father, if he had only known that he was speaking 56:20 to the one who spoke him into existence. 56:22 If he had only known the power resident in 56:26 that conversation, he would not have asked what he did. 56:29 So, Father tonight we pray 56:32 for those of us who may be religious and may be 56:34 even convicted and have a set of beliefs that are all 56:39 together correct. We pray that we can find 56:43 Jesus more than we can know what we 56:45 believe. We pray Father at this dark hour 56:49 of earth's history that you will find your people 56:53 again where they are and get them ready 56:55 for where you are preparing for us. 56:58 That this message of conversion and Holy Spirit's 57:02 power can grip as never before. 57:06 So, speak to our hearts, find us where we are 57:08 and when the moment of decision comes 57:12 may we choose to follow the savior 57:14 the one who is waiting to fellowship with us. 57:17 Thank you for the promise and thank you for the 57:19 power that you make available to us. 57:22 In Jesus name we pray. Amen. 57:26 May the Lord continue to bless you 57:29 and direct you and be with you 57:33 until we meet you again. May the Lord guide you 57:36 and direct you that we can meet you on that eternal day. 57:39 God bless you until we see you again. |
