And we're down to the last two
meetings of this Camp Meeting.
00:00:47.92\00:00:51.20
And we have really been
having a wonderful time.
00:00:51.50\00:00:56.33
We have. And it's been a
privilege to be here with...
00:00:56.53\00:00:59.99
have Elder Bradford
here - yes - and Mark Finley,
00:01:00.19\00:01:02.54
Pastor Mark Finley. And
I don't know about you all
00:01:02.75\00:01:05.50
but I've been blessed.
And so we don't get to come
00:01:05.70\00:01:07.79
out here but we can
hear from the green room.
00:01:07.89\00:01:09.80
We've finally got
us a television up
00:01:09.90\00:01:12.22
a couple years ago so we can
sit and listen and enjoy too.
00:01:12.25\00:01:15.47
Right. But through the
running back and forth.
00:01:15.67\00:01:17.32
And the great thing is:
DVDs will be available -
00:01:17.52\00:01:20.03
they are - for the
programs and because I...
00:01:20.23\00:01:22.82
There's a special
anointing that they both have -
00:01:23.02\00:01:25.73
yes - and they both have
been incredible evangelists
00:01:25.93\00:01:28.50
in the Seventh-day
Adventist church for many years.
00:01:28.70\00:01:31.00
So it's been a privilege.
And then I've been especially
00:01:31.10\00:01:33.59
also impressed with some of
the music that we've had here
00:01:33.79\00:01:37.09
with Reggie and Ladye and
with the Lesters that were here
00:01:37.23\00:01:40.10
this afternoon and
some of the other folk.
00:01:40.20\00:01:41.87
So we're just thankful
for this whole Camp Meeting
00:01:42.07\00:01:44.99
and mostly we're thankful
for all of you that're here,
00:01:45.19\00:01:47.42
those of you at home
that continue to support 3ABN.
00:01:47.62\00:01:50.77
Yes, and it means so
much to us to hear from you
00:01:51.17\00:01:55.64
because, Danny, there's
nothing like getting a letter
00:01:55.78\00:02:00.34
that's
encouraging. And I got one once.
00:02:00.54\00:02:04.79
I want you to
know that. And uh...
00:02:04.99\00:02:06.85
And I still have it on my
desk and every once in a while
00:02:09.22\00:02:12.46
I read it. You get
the other kind, too,
00:02:12.56\00:02:15.28
where they tell you
that your tie wasn't right
00:02:15.48\00:02:17.95
or... or that you said something
they didn't approve of.
00:02:18.15\00:02:21.69
You don't get the
tie letters any more?
00:02:21.89\00:02:23.99
All right. I was
talking with a fellow out here.
00:02:24.19\00:02:28.00
He's a pharmacist.
Ray... he's sitting here.
00:02:28.20\00:02:30.16
And he and his wife -
she's a nurse/practitioner -
00:02:30.36\00:02:33.23
have watched us
for many many years.
00:02:33.33\00:02:34.72
This is their first
time. Came down from Michigan
00:02:34.83\00:02:36.89
to be with us. And said the same
thing we hear so many times.
00:02:36.99\00:02:41.27
"It's one thing
to see it on TV... "
00:02:41.47\00:02:43.50
yeah... "but it's
another thing to be in the house
00:02:43.70\00:02:46.12
and experience the power and
presence of the Holy Spirit. "
00:02:46.32\00:02:48.25
Amen. It's a
whole different world,
00:02:48.28\00:02:49.48
a whole different
ballgame. It is... it really is.
00:02:49.58\00:02:52.41
And even though, for those
of us that work through this...
00:02:52.62\00:02:56.23
this whole Camp Meeting time,
00:02:56.43\00:02:58.98
it is tiring. Some of you
here... I'm looking at you
00:02:59.18\00:03:02.33
and you're thinking those
of you that sit through it
00:03:02.53\00:03:04.11
it's tiring, too. But...
but I will tell you this:
00:03:04.31\00:03:07.68
that it is so inspiring.
We're all ready looking forward
00:03:07.88\00:03:10.97
to the next one. And
the next Spring Camp Meeting
00:03:11.07\00:03:15.08
will be May 30-31
00:03:15.18\00:03:19.36
and June 1-2. So put
that on your calendar
00:03:19.66\00:03:24.73
right now. May
30-31 and June 1-2,
00:03:25.03\00:03:30.94
2012.
00:03:31.14\00:03:33.81
Lord willing, we'll be right
here for another Camp Meeting
00:03:34.01\00:03:37.00
at that time. Well right now
we want to sing our theme song
00:03:37.20\00:03:41.43
that we've enjoyed singing: When
the roll is called up yonder
00:03:41.64\00:03:45.59
I'll be there.
00:03:45.69\00:03:47.62
Amen.
00:04:35.26\00:04:36.68
Shall we pray?
Father God, we thank you
00:04:36.98\00:04:39.84
for this blessed Sabbath
day which is now slipping
00:04:39.95\00:04:43.65
into eternity. We thank you for
Your presence and Your power.
00:04:43.85\00:04:47.96
For the word that has
been preached with power.
00:04:48.16\00:04:51.44
For the music that has
been sung under the anointing
00:04:51.64\00:04:54.43
of the Holy Spirit. We
thank you, Lord, that You
00:04:54.63\00:04:56.93
have allowed us to sit
even for a little while
00:04:57.03\00:05:00.19
in heavenly places and
get a brand new glimpse
00:05:00.39\00:05:05.05
of the King and His
soon-coming kingdom.
00:05:05.25\00:05:08.70
What we have
experienced heretofore
00:05:09.37\00:05:12.24
we ask that we may be
privileged to experience it
00:05:12.45\00:05:15.98
once again in this
particular meeting.
00:05:16.18\00:05:18.86
Be the honored guest.
Speak to us through the music.
00:05:19.16\00:05:23.25
Preach to us
through the spoken word.
00:05:23.55\00:05:26.30
Open our hearts and
fill our minds with Your love
00:05:26.60\00:05:30.60
and Your Word and
Your glory and Your grace.
00:05:30.90\00:05:35.10
Teach us those things
that You would have us to know
00:05:35.40\00:05:38.25
and help us to do them
00:05:38.45\00:05:40.55
because it is in the doing that
we are made like Christ Jesus.
00:05:40.75\00:05:44.32
Bless us again this
night we ask and pray
00:05:44.52\00:05:47.63
and thank you in
Jesus' name, Amen and Amen.
00:05:47.83\00:05:51.84
Praise the Lord!
00:05:52.04\00:05:53.07
Well listen, we...
we have looked forward
00:05:53.37\00:05:57.62
to this meeting all day
00:05:57.92\00:06:01.22
because this is the
time when we will hear
00:06:01.52\00:06:05.45
our two speakers one more time:
00:06:05.66\00:06:07.55
Elder Bradford at this service
00:06:07.75\00:06:10.27
and immediately
after our closing service
00:06:10.47\00:06:14.17
will be Elder Mark Finley.
00:06:14.38\00:06:16.26
And the messages
we've received already today
00:06:16.56\00:06:20.79
have been such a
blessing. Those messages that
00:06:20.99\00:06:23.76
were given this morning
and I have been excited about
00:06:23.97\00:06:28.07
every one of them that
I've heard. I've learned a lot.
00:06:28.27\00:06:32.21
You know, when you can
learn something from a message
00:06:32.51\00:06:34.97
that is new, that is exciting,
00:06:35.17\00:06:38.55
that is something
that just inspires you,
00:06:38.75\00:06:42.29
then you know that God
is really using that message
00:06:42.49\00:06:46.26
in a very special way.
00:06:46.46\00:06:47.70
Elder Bradford's subject
tonight is "Buy That Field. "
00:06:47.90\00:06:52.58
And before he
comes to speak to us
00:06:52.78\00:06:55.33
Tammy Chance is
going to come back.
00:06:55.63\00:06:58.02
She's going to sing a song that
we've already heard once today.
00:06:58.05\00:07:00.98
But we want to hear it
again. We want to hear her sing
00:07:01.18\00:07:04.18
He Didn't Throw The Clay Away.
00:07:04.38\00:07:07.92
Jim, I'm chicken.
After the Lester's doing it
00:07:08.12\00:07:10.39
I couldn't go after
them and do it again.
00:07:10.69\00:07:12.91
You're not going to do it? No.
00:07:13.21\00:07:15.69
Well thank you for
telling me. I appreciate...
00:07:15.89\00:07:18.39
That's the crew's job.
00:07:18.59\00:07:21.02
I chickened out. I
asked her... I said:
00:07:21.22\00:07:24.78
"Is she going to
do that song again? "
00:07:24.88\00:07:26.57
And they said: "Yes, she
is! " I sent them over there.
00:07:26.67\00:07:30.00
Sorry. You did chicken out, huh?
00:07:30.20\00:07:32.18
I did chicken... I
can't follow them. No.
00:07:32.28\00:07:33.92
She threw the clay away
and now she's going to...
00:07:34.12\00:07:37.45
she's going to sing
something else, all right?
00:07:37.65\00:07:41.08
What are you going to
sing? I'm going to sing
00:07:41.28\00:07:42.62
This World Is Not
My Home. All right.
00:07:42.72\00:07:45.88
I hope I don't get fired.
00:07:50.90\00:07:52.73
This world is not my home,
00:07:57.59\00:08:02.34
I'm just a'passin through.
00:08:02.75\00:08:06.86
My treasures are laid up
00:08:07.26\00:08:11.82
somewhere beyond the blue.
00:08:12.12\00:08:16.30
The angels beckon me
00:08:16.60\00:08:21.34
from heaven's open door
00:08:21.64\00:08:25.26
and I can't feel at home
00:08:25.98\00:08:29.65
in this world
00:08:29.95\00:08:32.23
any more.
00:08:32.64\00:08:37.31
Oh Lord, you know I
have no friend like You.
00:08:38.39\00:08:44.34
If heaven's not my home, Lord,
00:08:44.64\00:08:48.12
Lord, what will I do?
00:08:48.32\00:08:50.52
The angels beckon me
00:08:50.82\00:08:53.79
from heaven's open door
00:08:54.03\00:08:56.60
and I can't feel at home
00:08:56.90\00:08:59.70
in this world any more.
00:08:59.90\00:09:03.84
Just over in glory land we'll
00:09:07.87\00:09:11.50
live eternally.
00:09:11.70\00:09:14.03
The saints on every hand
00:09:14.33\00:09:17.33
are shouting victory!
00:09:17.53\00:09:20.22
Their songs of sweetest praise
drift back from heaven's shore
00:09:20.62\00:09:26.09
and I can't feel at home
00:09:26.39\00:09:29.28
in this world any more.
00:09:29.58\00:09:33.66
Oh Lord, You know,
00:09:34.16\00:09:37.59
I have no friend like You.
00:09:37.79\00:09:40.51
If heaven's not my home, Lord,
00:09:40.81\00:09:44.09
Lord what will I do?
00:09:44.29\00:09:46.71
The angels beckon me
00:09:47.11\00:09:49.89
from heaven's open door
00:09:50.09\00:09:52.64
and I can't feel at home
00:09:52.94\00:09:55.81
in this world any more.
00:09:56.11\00:10:00.16
They're all expecting me
00:10:01.11\00:10:03.67
and that's one thing I know.
00:10:03.87\00:10:06.91
My Savior pardoned me
00:10:07.22\00:10:10.22
and now I onward go.
00:10:10.52\00:10:13.44
I know He'll take me through
00:10:13.75\00:10:16.45
though I am weak and poor
00:10:16.65\00:10:19.31
and I can't feel at home
00:10:19.51\00:10:22.27
in this world any more.
00:10:22.47\00:10:25.86
The angels beckon me
00:10:26.16\00:10:28.92
from heaven's open door
00:10:29.12\00:10:31.69
and I can't feel at home
00:10:31.99\00:10:34.78
in this world
00:10:34.98\00:10:37.23
any more.
00:10:37.43\00:10:43.40
Amen.
00:10:45.61\00:10:47.40
Tell that young lady she
can sing anything she wants to.
00:10:56.32\00:10:59.27
Amen. And if these
brethren are not nice to her
00:10:59.48\00:11:02.52
she must call me up
and I'll let them know
00:11:02.55\00:11:04.72
what side I'm on, all
right? Thank you so much.
00:11:04.92\00:11:07.35
And your theme song grips
me. What's your theme song?
00:11:07.65\00:11:13.01
Come on... huh?
00:11:13.22\00:11:15.95
When the roll is
called up yonder.
00:11:16.85\00:11:18.96
It happened in
London they tell me.
00:11:19.06\00:11:21.05
Now many of these
stories about hymns
00:11:21.25\00:11:23.96
are different versions of them.
00:11:24.16\00:11:26.26
But my version of
this comes from London.
00:11:26.46\00:11:28.52
They began Sunday Schools,
you know, there in London.
00:11:28.83\00:11:32.68
They were really almost in
contradistinction of the church.
00:11:32.98\00:11:36.25
The church over here and
the Sunday School over here.
00:11:36.45\00:11:38.22
And Sunday School workers
took care of the children
00:11:38.42\00:11:41.01
down in the slums and they
gathered them in, you know.
00:11:41.21\00:11:44.79
They didn't have
busses they gathered them in.
00:11:44.99\00:11:46.75
And they had the little talks
and Bible plays and so forth.
00:11:46.95\00:11:50.87
And they missed
one little fellow.
00:11:51.08\00:11:53.19
They missed him. Couple
of times they missed him
00:11:53.49\00:11:55.72
and they went to his little
tenement house where he lived.
00:11:55.92\00:11:58.99
Very, very poor
section of London.
00:11:59.20\00:12:01.15
And when they walked into
his room, he was fading away.
00:12:01.35\00:12:05.22
And they said:
"Oh, we missed you.
00:12:05.42\00:12:07.26
We missed you. You know
we call roll every Sunday
00:12:07.46\00:12:10.09
and you weren't there. "
00:12:10.29\00:12:11.83
And the people told
them he was really dying.
00:12:12.03\00:12:14.72
And he said: "But I will be
there... When the roll is called
00:12:14.92\00:12:19.48
up yonder, I'll be there. "
00:12:19.58\00:12:21.97
Amen. That's a
little boy's testimony.
00:12:22.27\00:12:24.40
I hope that's the
right story about it.
00:12:24.60\00:12:26.74
But it's a good
one anyway, isn't it?
00:12:26.95\00:12:28.85
A good one... it's a good one.
00:12:29.25\00:12:30.56
Now tonight I want to
talk about that field.
00:12:31.28\00:12:34.38
Buy That Field.
00:12:35.63\00:12:37.96
Our foreparents came here
00:12:39.07\00:12:41.20
and they homesteaded,
some of them, didn't they?
00:12:41.30\00:12:43.43
And that property
meant something to them.
00:12:44.48\00:12:48.70
The property was precious.
00:12:49.00\00:12:51.79
Family treasure.
00:12:52.09\00:12:53.98
They kept it as
long as they could
00:12:54.28\00:12:56.51
in the family.
00:12:56.81\00:12:58.64
It was a disgrace for property
to get out of the family's hands
00:12:58.94\00:13:04.44
and control.
00:13:04.54\00:13:05.56
Now tonight I'm going
to talk about that field.
00:13:06.66\00:13:09.36
It was lost
00:13:09.66\00:13:11.45
and somebody who
owned it was angry.
00:13:11.76\00:13:16.59
And I'll read this
text before we pray.
00:13:17.77\00:13:20.21
Twenty-third
chapter of Jeremiah.
00:13:20.51\00:13:24.26
Jeremiah
chapter 23 and verse 20.
00:13:24.66\00:13:30.59
Hear the Word of the Lord:
00:13:30.89\00:13:33.10
"The anger of the
Lord shall not return
00:13:33.30\00:13:38.15
until He hath executed
00:13:38.45\00:13:41.85
until He have performed
00:13:42.15\00:13:45.96
the thoughts of His heart.
00:13:46.16\00:13:47.79
In the latter days
ye shall consider it" -
00:13:48.19\00:13:52.42
or understand it - "perfectly. "
00:13:52.63\00:13:55.16
Father God, help us to
talk tonight about the field.
00:13:55.36\00:14:00.27
It was Yours. You
created it, You made it.
00:14:00.57\00:14:03.92
You established it and
somehow it slipped away
00:14:04.12\00:14:08.62
from the family of God
00:14:08.72\00:14:10.51
and was in the
hands of an enemy:
00:14:10.91\00:14:13.67
a usurper, a pretender king.
00:14:13.87\00:14:17.76
Help us to
understand, Lord, of Your anger,
00:14:19.58\00:14:22.23
Your fury, and
Your determination
00:14:22.44\00:14:27.27
to buy it back... to
bring it back into the family.
00:14:27.48\00:14:31.12
Help us to
understand it I pray dear Lord.
00:14:31.42\00:14:35.13
In Jesus' dear name, Amen. Amen.
00:14:35.33\00:14:38.60
Old D. L. Moody... I used
to like to read about Moody.
00:14:38.80\00:14:44.00
Great evangelist.
Never had an education
00:14:44.20\00:14:48.28
in theological seminaries.
00:14:48.48\00:14:50.85
Was never ordained. He
was a layman all his life
00:14:51.16\00:14:54.34
but a great soul winner.
00:14:54.65\00:14:57.21
And sometimes Moody would say
00:14:57.41\00:15:00.73
"Sin leaped into
the world full grown. "
00:15:01.03\00:15:05.48
The first child was what?
The first child was a murderer.
00:15:06.72\00:15:11.66
So sin doesn't
take long to ripen
00:15:11.96\00:15:15.55
and bring death and destruction.
00:15:15.75\00:15:18.06
Poets call earth's history
this "vale of wrath and tears. "
00:15:20.56\00:15:26.36
And the Bible
records things in reality.
00:15:26.59\00:15:30.21
The Bible is not a
nice little romantic tale.
00:15:31.24\00:15:35.59
The Bible gets to
the root of the issue
00:15:35.89\00:15:39.12
and the Bible tells you
what sin is really all about.
00:15:39.32\00:15:43.60
Unvarnished truth they call it.
00:15:44.65\00:15:48.15
That's what it is
in the Word of God.
00:15:48.45\00:15:51.26
I'm going to read
you here a few texts
00:15:51.56\00:15:54.33
before we plunge into
the middle of our talk.
00:15:54.53\00:15:57.12
Let's go over to II Timothy.
00:15:57.42\00:15:59.93
And that's Paul's writing,
you know, to his son Timothy
00:16:01.17\00:16:04.04
in the gospel ministry.
And he almost begins that
00:16:04.24\00:16:07.91
II Timothy - it's
chapter 3 - with some terrible,
00:16:08.11\00:16:12.06
terrible
predictions and dire predictions
00:16:12.26\00:16:16.26
of what is happening when
somebody buys the property.
00:16:16.46\00:16:20.55
When the wrong man gets
in charge of the property.
00:16:21.59\00:16:25.39
II Timothy 3 and verse 1.
00:16:26.51\00:16:29.20
"This know also
that in the last days
00:16:29.50\00:16:33.68
perilous times shall come. "
00:16:33.88\00:16:36.14
We've got to
believe that, haven't we?
00:16:37.40\00:16:39.32
"In the last days. "
00:16:39.52\00:16:41.20
I call my little
topics that I'm giving to you
00:16:41.40\00:16:44.71
God's End-Time People.
00:16:44.91\00:16:47.46
We're seeing it all.
00:16:47.76\00:16:49.49
Moses, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob,
00:16:49.79\00:16:52.71
all the rest of the apostles:
they looked forward to it.
00:16:52.91\00:16:56.18
But we are surrounded by it.
00:16:57.38\00:17:00.34
Somehow the Lord in
His mercy planned this day
00:17:00.64\00:17:04.93
and put us right in the
center of it: the end of time.
00:17:05.13\00:17:09.00
This "vale of wrath and tears. "
00:17:10.51\00:17:13.51
So Paul says - he's
looking forward to it also...
00:17:13.81\00:17:16.83
One of the passages of
scripture has Jesus saying
00:17:17.03\00:17:21.51
Abraham looked for
that day. Didn't see it.
00:17:21.71\00:17:23.75
A whole chapter:
Hebrews 11, you know.
00:17:23.96\00:17:26.72
Hebrews 11...
that entire chapter.
00:17:26.92\00:17:28.60
I once heard Elder
M. L. Andreasen preach
00:17:28.80\00:17:32.22
on this, the
great Bible scholar.
00:17:32.32\00:17:34.56
Down in Dallas, Texas, he
preached on the 11th chapter
00:17:34.76\00:17:38.27
of Hebrews. All of these
died without seeing the promise.
00:17:38.47\00:17:42.41
And so in these
last days where we are
00:17:43.72\00:17:47.58
"Men shall be lovers
of their own selves. "
00:17:47.78\00:17:51.43
You agree with Paul?
00:17:51.73\00:17:53.33
Amen. "Covetous, boasters,
00:17:53.63\00:17:58.39
proud, blasphemers,
00:17:58.69\00:18:02.28
disobedient to parents,
00:18:02.59\00:18:04.40
unthankful, unholy... "
00:18:04.60\00:18:06.98
It goes on. What a list!
00:18:07.18\00:18:09.26
This is more than a
little laundry list.
00:18:09.56\00:18:12.26
"without natural affection,
00:18:12.56\00:18:14.78
truce breakers, false accusers,
00:18:14.98\00:18:18.26
incontinent, fierce,
00:18:18.46\00:18:20.98
despisers of
those that are good... "
00:18:21.18\00:18:23.76
I'd almost tell Paul
"Hurry up and get through
00:18:24.06\00:18:26.70
with this list. "
00:18:26.80\00:18:27.86
"traitors, heady, highminded,
00:18:27.89\00:18:31.14
lovers of pleasure
more than lovers of God... "
00:18:31.17\00:18:34.30
And then, this is the
frightening part of it...
00:18:34.50\00:18:36.47
"having a form of godliness... "
00:18:36.77\00:18:39.24
You see the picture?
00:18:40.64\00:18:42.35
"but denying the power thereof.
00:18:42.65\00:18:45.93
From such turn away. "
00:18:46.13\00:18:49.85
What a catalog.
00:18:50.15\00:18:51.20
And what a surprise when
we find that these people
00:18:51.41\00:18:56.81
who have these traits
claim to be religious.
00:18:57.01\00:19:00.11
They have a form of godliness.
00:19:01.06\00:19:03.85
I don't know who they are
and I am not to be a judge
00:19:04.15\00:19:07.38
or I am not to make
decisions on you or you or you,
00:19:07.58\00:19:10.92
but the Bible
said they would exist.
00:19:11.12\00:19:13.76
And the Word of God
said: "From such turn away. "
00:19:13.96\00:19:16.67
Yes, we preach the law of God.
00:19:18.75\00:19:20.98
We preach the
second coming of Christ.
00:19:21.18\00:19:23.54
Amen.
00:19:23.74\00:19:24.80
We preach that we should
live soberly, righteously,
00:19:25.00\00:19:27.99
and godly in this present world.
00:19:28.19\00:19:29.95
Amen. The grace
of God that we preach
00:19:30.25\00:19:32.22
is not a grace that
gives license... cheap grace.
00:19:32.42\00:19:36.17
The grace of God that we preach
tells us that we must live
00:19:36.47\00:19:40.70
in this world under the aegis,
the guidance of the law of God.
00:19:40.90\00:19:46.67
Amen.
00:19:46.87\00:19:48.05
The law tells us what sin is.
00:19:48.25\00:19:50.37
We're not going to fight the law
because it tells us who we are.
00:19:50.67\00:19:54.71
They tell the story of a woman
who was the queen of the tribe.
00:19:56.36\00:20:00.05
They had no mirrors there
in those days in that place.
00:20:01.71\00:20:05.69
And along came a tinkerer...
00:20:05.99\00:20:08.47
that is the guy that comes
and sells stuff, you know...
00:20:08.67\00:20:11.09
and had a mirror.
00:20:11.39\00:20:13.57
And she said: "That's
the only one you have? "
00:20:13.87\00:20:15.12
"Yes. " "I am the queen
and I must take the mirror. "
00:20:15.22\00:20:17.90
So she took the mirror.
00:20:19.00\00:20:20.23
Ran into her little hut and
looked at herself in the mirror.
00:20:20.53\00:20:24.74
She was shocked!
00:20:25.04\00:20:26.40
She threw the mirror
down and stomped on it.
00:20:26.70\00:20:28.96
She said: "Now I still
am the most beautiful woman
00:20:29.07\00:20:32.19
in this tribe. "
00:20:32.39\00:20:34.69
But we are not of those why
deny what the mirror reflects.
00:20:35.37\00:20:40.97
When I see myself in
that mirror I run to Jesus.
00:20:41.28\00:20:45.85
Amen. Elder Finley has
a way he teases me about
00:20:46.15\00:20:50.87
saying "the old preachers. "
00:20:50.90\00:20:52.06
Well the old
preachers used to preach that...
00:20:52.26\00:20:54.28
that when you break the mirror
00:20:54.48\00:20:56.78
it hasn't changed a
thing, has it? Amen.
00:20:56.98\00:20:59.59
Now let me tell
you about that mirror.
00:20:59.69\00:21:01.19
That mirror can't clean you.
00:21:01.50\00:21:03.64
Huh? No. But it's still
necessary, isn't it? Yes.
00:21:03.94\00:21:07.52
And already when we
got ready to come out here
00:21:07.72\00:21:10.23
they examined me back there.
00:21:10.43\00:21:11.96
Your tie, huh?
00:21:14.27\00:21:16.13
Your face is shiny. You
need a little something here.
00:21:16.43\00:21:19.21
We'll wipe you off. Do I
fight them because of that?
00:21:19.41\00:21:22.39
No. What do I do? Change.
00:21:22.59\00:21:24.28
Now when I see the mirror...
myself in the mirror...
00:21:24.48\00:21:28.03
I don't take the mirror and
wipe myself up with the mirror.
00:21:28.24\00:21:31.33
I go get some soap and
water, huh? Come on now.
00:21:31.53\00:21:34.03
And the mirror
sends us to the cross.
00:21:34.23\00:21:36.30
Come on tell me
friends it's right. Amen!
00:21:36.50\00:21:38.52
It is right. The mirror...
the mirror of God's law.
00:21:38.73\00:21:41.92
"Oh how I love Thy law.
00:21:42.12\00:21:44.36
It is my meditation
both day and night. "
00:21:44.56\00:21:47.63
And then Paul comes back
and he brings up the question
00:21:47.93\00:21:50.87
again in verse 13. He says:
00:21:51.08\00:21:53.10
"But evil men and seducers
00:21:53.30\00:21:56.54
shall wax worse and worse
00:21:56.85\00:21:59.54
deceiving and being deceived. "
00:21:59.84\00:22:02.64
We've got to be
clear headed here.
00:22:02.94\00:22:05.02
We can't be murky
and walking as blind men
00:22:05.32\00:22:10.25
that cannot see,
groping in the darkness.
00:22:10.45\00:22:13.57
We've got to have
a searchlight here
00:22:13.87\00:22:15.67
because there are
in the land men, women
00:22:15.87\00:22:19.74
who are giving out their catalog
of what they say is right.
00:22:19.94\00:22:24.65
But it's on the other side.
00:22:24.85\00:22:27.54
And they are skillful...
they're well-trained.
00:22:27.84\00:22:32.22
They have beautiful voices.
00:22:32.53\00:22:35.91
They sing well.
00:22:36.21\00:22:38.50
They are
well-trained and well-groomed.
00:22:38.80\00:22:42.59
And you sit there
and you look at them
00:22:42.89\00:22:46.07
and continuing... by
beholding we become changed
00:22:46.27\00:22:51.70
and we move our position.
And let me tell you friends,
00:22:51.90\00:22:55.21
please don't misunderstand.
00:22:55.24\00:22:58.02
But the more we look at things
00:22:58.23\00:22:59.92
the more we
become what we look at.
00:23:00.02\00:23:02.58
Amen.
00:23:02.88\00:23:03.95
It overwhelms us and
then we begin to make excuses.
00:23:04.15\00:23:07.20
"Well how can they be so bad
when they're so nice looking? "
00:23:07.40\00:23:11.20
Well I don't
need to dwell on that.
00:23:12.26\00:23:14.22
The Holy Ghost has put
that in your mind already.
00:23:14.42\00:23:17.12
But I'm going to talk tonight
about the field that was lost.
00:23:17.42\00:23:21.14
This is Jeremiah's talk.
00:23:22.12\00:23:24.95
Jeremiah
dominates my thinking now.
00:23:25.25\00:23:28.40
Look at Jeremiah chapter 20
00:23:28.70\00:23:31.38
and we're going to talk a
little bit about Jeremiah.
00:23:32.39\00:23:35.91
Jeremiah is called by
some the "weeping prophet. "
00:23:36.21\00:23:41.02
He's always crying, isn't he?
00:23:41.25\00:23:43.47
He said "Oh, I wish my
head were a fountain of tears. "
00:23:43.78\00:23:47.05
You know, if we could see
sin in all of its enormity
00:23:47.55\00:23:53.45
as God can see it, we'd cry too!
00:23:53.55\00:23:56.28
But the devil has
sugar-coated it, hasn't he?
00:23:56.58\00:24:00.62
"Come on, just take a
little sip. That's all. "
00:24:00.93\00:24:03.63
And a little another sip... huh?
00:24:03.83\00:24:06.60
And far and far sipped, and
you're sipped out of your mind.
00:24:06.90\00:24:09.40
You don't know what's
going on; you're confused.
00:24:09.70\00:24:11.36
And you go to the brethren, your
neighbors, your preacher and say
00:24:11.56\00:24:14.71
"You think that man is OK? "
00:24:14.91\00:24:17.15
Now friends, you don't need
to come and see your brethren.
00:24:17.45\00:24:20.69
You don't need to come and
see me; you know what it is.
00:24:20.89\00:24:22.84
"To the law and the testimony.
00:24:23.05\00:24:26.41
If they speak not
according to this Word,
00:24:26.61\00:24:29.71
there is no light in them. "
00:24:29.91\00:24:31.70
Do not equivocate.
00:24:32.00\00:24:34.24
Do not get too
close and tiptoe around.
00:24:34.54\00:24:38.64
Take your position and
say: "If they speak not
00:24:40.09\00:24:43.55
according to this Word... " I
don't care how well they sing.
00:24:43.85\00:24:47.84
I don't care how beautifully
programmed their message is
00:24:48.24\00:24:52.91
and packaged. I don't
care anything about that.
00:24:53.11\00:24:55.63
I care about what
it carries. What is it?
00:24:55.93\00:24:58.06
What's the kernel
there? And look at the kernel
00:24:58.26\00:25:00.73
and the kernel is not
truth, and if they have no light
00:25:00.93\00:25:04.55
in them, get away from them.
00:25:04.65\00:25:06.70
Amen.
00:25:06.90\00:25:08.06
That just came out like
that. I didn't plan it to.
00:25:08.26\00:25:10.50
If they... I'm
going to say it again now.
00:25:10.70\00:25:12.74
If there is no light in
them get away from them.
00:25:12.94\00:25:16.68
And don't ask me if
it's OK to look at them.
00:25:16.88\00:25:19.46
Let the Holy Ghost tell
you. He's already told you
00:25:19.66\00:25:22.58
"According to the
law and the testimony. "
00:25:22.78\00:25:26.20
If they don't speak according
to this you get away from them.
00:25:26.34\00:25:29.59
There is no light in them.
00:25:29.79\00:25:31.93
So Jeremiah is here
00:25:32.13\00:25:35.36
and Pashhur, the
son of Immer, the priest
00:25:35.76\00:25:38.91
who was also chief governor
in the house of the Lord,
00:25:39.11\00:25:41.18
heard that Jeremiah
prophesied these things.
00:25:41.28\00:25:43.75
Jeremiah didn't have
nice music or anything.
00:25:46.91\00:25:49.25
He didn't have an
organ. He didn't have...
00:25:49.45\00:25:51.05
All he had was the
Word of God and his harp.
00:25:51.35\00:25:54.48
And then Pashhur
smote Jeremiah the prophet.
00:25:54.68\00:25:57.79
Put him in the stocks
00:25:58.09\00:26:00.65
that were in the
high gate of Benjamin
00:26:02.04\00:26:03.86
and which was by
the house of the Lord.
00:26:04.06\00:26:07.61
Put poor old Jeremiah in jail.
00:26:08.02\00:26:11.45
In jail. In stocks.
00:26:12.74\00:26:16.47
Just for telling the truth.
00:26:16.77\00:26:19.41
Verse 3: "And it
came to pass on the morrow
00:26:19.71\00:26:22.35
that Pashhur brought forth
Jeremiah out of the stocks. "
00:26:22.65\00:26:26.94
Took him out. "Then
said Jeremiah unto him:
00:26:27.14\00:26:30.25
'The Lord hath not
called thy name Pashhur
00:26:30.45\00:26:33.22
but Magor-Missabib. '
00:26:33.42\00:26:35.58
Can hardly pronounce that.
00:26:35.78\00:26:38.04
All I know it's a terrible name.
00:26:39.43\00:26:41.88
An awful name.
00:26:42.28\00:26:44.50
In my early experience I
pastored very humble people.
00:26:45.84\00:26:49.79
I had evang... My wife and
I had evangelistic campaigns
00:26:50.00\00:26:54.10
many many very poor places.
00:26:54.30\00:26:57.93
And people came to Jesus, and
I want to tell you one thing:
00:26:58.13\00:27:01.68
I don't care whether they came
out of those bayous of Louisiana
00:27:01.88\00:27:05.98
or the
penthouses in New York City,
00:27:06.18\00:27:08.75
they're all precious in
God's sight, aren't they?
00:27:08.95\00:27:11.13
Amen. And so in those
days we used to really have
00:27:11.34\00:27:14.27
the Week of
Prayer as a solemn time.
00:27:14.37\00:27:16.84
And the brethren at the
General Conference sent it down,
00:27:17.04\00:27:19.54
the offices of the
General Conference.
00:27:19.74\00:27:21.42
We'd read it to the people.
00:27:21.52\00:27:22.66
You know, in those days
when we read those scriptures
00:27:22.86\00:27:27.55
that the brethren sent
us from Washington, DC,
00:27:27.75\00:27:30.38
to come part, we
took them as from the Lord
00:27:30.48\00:27:33.53
and we read it just like
people would read Paul's letter
00:27:33.73\00:27:36.20
in Ephesus. You'd
sit there quietly.
00:27:36.41\00:27:39.98
Every now and
then a little "Amen. "
00:27:40.28\00:27:43.21
Was the word from the Lord.
00:27:44.25\00:27:46.11
And they gave us, of
course, in the Review...
00:27:46.31\00:27:50.51
I got my Review the
other day. It's there.
00:27:50.61\00:27:52.51
I don't hear much
about it in the churches,
00:27:52.71\00:27:55.09
but they used to
send it out and we read it
00:27:55.29\00:27:57.32
and we were
carefully looking at it.
00:27:57.52\00:27:58.98
And I would take
these dear brethren.
00:27:59.18\00:28:01.51
We wanted them to be
elders in the church...
00:28:01.71\00:28:03.47
brand new members...
00:28:03.67\00:28:05.34
and they would take those
Reviews and they'd read it
00:28:05.54\00:28:09.31
and they'd read it. And
one of my dear brethren -
00:28:09.51\00:28:12.37
wonderful man, godly
man, but very humble -
00:28:12.57\00:28:16.24
not schooled in
colleges. He was reading it...
00:28:17.40\00:28:21.41
I had them to do it,
you know, practice it.
00:28:21.65\00:28:23.78
He was reading it and
he came to a word like this
00:28:23.98\00:28:26.13
Magor-Missabib and he
just said: "hard word. "
00:28:26.33\00:28:30.12
But I treasure that
memory... I treasure it.
00:28:33.31\00:28:35.50
I look back on it.
00:28:35.70\00:28:36.99
A few years later I
passed through that little town
00:28:37.39\00:28:40.22
and that brother who
couldn't repeat that word
00:28:40.42\00:28:42.89
any better than I do,
he said: "hard word, "
00:28:43.10\00:28:45.22
but now he's teaching
the Sabbath School lesson.
00:28:45.42\00:28:47.81
Amen! I'm telling you what
God can do for poor people,
00:28:48.01\00:28:51.17
humble people.
00:28:51.27\00:28:53.16
Put yourself in the hand
of God and He will teach you!
00:28:53.46\00:28:57.25
He will guide you.
00:28:57.55\00:28:59.42
You will not be just
ignorant all your life.
00:28:59.72\00:29:02.85
I'm sorry I said that.
That's not the right way to go.
00:29:03.15\00:29:07.40
I'm too... I'm not
careful enough in my speech.
00:29:07.70\00:29:11.46
But the Lord does
lead you and guide you.
00:29:11.76\00:29:14.42
You come to Him just as you are.
00:29:14.62\00:29:16.20
And I heard a preacher here
in this meeting say already:
00:29:16.40\00:29:19.41
"but you don't stay like
you were when you came to Him. "
00:29:19.61\00:29:22.87
Amen. You begin growth in grace
00:29:23.07\00:29:26.61
and in the knowledge of our
Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
00:29:26.91\00:29:30.08
Now it says something here.
In Jeremiah 26 it says something
00:29:30.38\00:29:35.17
here in verse 8
I want to read you.
00:29:35.27\00:29:38.12
"And now it came to pass
when Jeremiah had made an end of
00:29:38.32\00:29:43.50
speaking all that the
Lord had commanded him to speak
00:29:43.60\00:29:46.78
unto the people, that
the priests and the prophets
00:29:46.88\00:29:49.58
and all the
people took him saying:
00:29:49.78\00:29:51.91
"thou shalt surely die! "
00:29:52.11\00:29:53.58
This is serious.
00:29:53.88\00:29:56.08
Now I have almost at
times been run out of town.
00:29:56.28\00:30:00.85
That's right.
00:30:01.15\00:30:03.18
But I've never been
threatened to be killed.
00:30:03.38\00:30:05.55
Some of my dear
brethren in other communions
00:30:06.57\00:30:09.51
did say "he ought
to get out of here. "
00:30:09.72\00:30:11.83
But they never put anybody
on me. The only thing that
00:30:12.03\00:30:14.73
I've had... One
little old town where we went
00:30:14.93\00:30:17.13
and the sheriff came
and he said: "Preacher,
00:30:17.34\00:30:20.56
don't put your loud
speaker up too loud.
00:30:20.97\00:30:24.30
We don't like that down here. "
00:30:24.50\00:30:25.97
And you know, I was compliant.
00:30:26.17\00:30:28.44
I turned it
down a decibel or two
00:30:28.64\00:30:30.97
and let the church roll on.
00:30:31.37\00:30:34.13
We just went on. But I
never had death threats.
00:30:34.33\00:30:36.85
Look in the 37th
chapter. Just reading so you can
00:30:37.05\00:30:39.88
catch a little bit of
the spirit and the situation
00:30:40.08\00:30:43.15
that Jeremiah had to face.
00:30:43.35\00:30:45.47
It's back over here in
37 verse 16 where he says:
00:30:45.67\00:30:50.65
"When Jeremiah was
entered into the dungeon
00:30:50.85\00:30:54.57
and into the caverns,
and Jeremiah had remained
00:30:54.77\00:30:59.75
there many days. " This
wasn't just an in and out
00:30:59.95\00:31:04.15
where they arrest you and
take you down and you pay a fine
00:31:04.35\00:31:07.43
and go home. This
was incarceration.
00:31:07.63\00:31:10.68
Jeremiah was there
in jail for many days.
00:31:10.88\00:31:14.19
Now let's get some hope in here.
00:31:14.49\00:31:16.37
The 32nd chapter of Jeremiah.
00:31:16.67\00:31:19.83
And we're going to look
here at... what verse are we
00:31:20.23\00:31:22.67
going to look at now?
Jeremiah 32 and verse 17.
00:31:22.87\00:31:28.06
And it says: "Ah, Lord God,
00:31:28.36\00:31:30.63
behold Thou hast made
the heaven and the earth
00:31:30.83\00:31:33.20
by Thy great power
and stretched out arm... "
00:31:33.50\00:31:37.55
Now here's my favorite:
00:31:37.65\00:31:38.76
"and there is
nothing too hard for Thee. "
00:31:38.96\00:31:44.20
There's nothing,
Lord, too hard for Thee.
00:31:44.50\00:31:47.92
And we look in the 32nd chapter
00:31:48.22\00:31:50.48
and we go a little bit
here. And there is hope,
00:31:50.68\00:31:53.03
there is always hope. The
32nd chapter brings us some hope
00:31:53.23\00:31:56.91
where he says "the word came
to Jeremiah... " and so forth.
00:31:57.12\00:31:59.92
The king said -
Zedekiah - saying, that's third:
00:32:00.12\00:32:03.05
"Wherefore dost thou prophesy
and say: 'thus saith the Lord:
00:32:03.25\00:32:06.50
behold I will give this
city into the hand of the king
00:32:06.70\00:32:09.32
of Babylon. He
shall take it. ' "
00:32:09.52\00:32:11.20
You know, Jeremiah had to
preach some hard messages.
00:32:11.34\00:32:14.48
He had to tell the people of
Judah that you're going to be
00:32:15.43\00:32:19.94
taken into captivity.
00:32:20.04\00:32:21.67
And when the brethren said:
"Well, we'll get some guns... "
00:32:21.97\00:32:25.92
not guns back
then... "some bows and arrows
00:32:26.12\00:32:29.01
and some spears and some
shields and we'll fight. "
00:32:29.21\00:32:33.28
Jeremiah said:
"No, when they come
00:32:33.48\00:32:36.42
just go quietly with them. "
00:32:36.52\00:32:38.73
They were proud
people... they didn't like that.
00:32:39.86\00:32:42.35
Why do you preach
that kind of a message?
00:32:42.65\00:32:45.06
It's a terrible thing
for you to say these things.
00:32:45.26\00:32:48.08
Why don't you, Bro.
Jeremiah, can't you sometimes
00:32:48.28\00:32:52.42
preach something
that makes us feel good?
00:32:52.62\00:32:54.60
Ah-ah... a feel-good sermon.
00:32:54.81\00:32:57.35
Hmmm? That's what I want.
00:32:57.65\00:32:59.99
And Paul says in the last days
they shall heap unto themselves
00:33:00.30\00:33:04.28
teachers "having itching ears. "
00:33:04.38\00:33:06.85
People who tell us:
"Well, you're doing fine.
00:33:08.00\00:33:10.46
Don't worry about it.
Everything is all right.
00:33:10.66\00:33:15.19
Just go and enjoy yourself
00:33:15.49\00:33:17.53
and the Lord will breathe
down upon you in a nice way. "
00:33:17.83\00:33:21.93
Yes He will
breathe upon you, too.
00:33:22.03\00:33:24.36
Jeremiah had to tell the
whole... nothing but the truth.
00:33:24.56\00:33:27.59
The whole truth...
nothing but the truth.
00:33:28.77\00:33:31.86
And by the way, when we
tell the truth they say we are
00:33:32.26\00:33:35.31
preaching doom and gloom.
00:33:35.51\00:33:37.18
"You Adventists...
that's all you preach:
00:33:38.50\00:33:40.58
end of the world. Why don't
you preach something good? "
00:33:40.89\00:33:44.88
Well, I can preach
something good and I do!
00:33:44.98\00:33:48.72
Jesus is coming soon. Amen!
00:33:48.92\00:33:51.82
And by the way,
He's my friend. Amen.
00:33:52.12\00:33:55.15
And I want to see
my friend in peace.
00:33:55.28\00:33:58.02
I want to see Him with my own
eyes. "Then shall I behold Him
00:33:58.23\00:34:01.65
with mine own eyes. " If
that doesn't make you feel good
00:34:01.85\00:34:05.18
I don't know what will.
Because I've been praying to Him
00:34:05.38\00:34:08.20
since a little child
saying my little prayer at night
00:34:08.40\00:34:11.36
"God be with me when I sleep.
" Now I'm going to see Him
00:34:11.56\00:34:15.33
about whom I have
talked and whom I have imagined
00:34:15.53\00:34:20.01
in my mind what He looks like.
Now I'm going to get to really
00:34:20.11\00:34:23.32
see Him. Amen!
00:34:23.52\00:34:26.29
Look at Him. Touch
His hands and His feet.
00:34:27.58\00:34:32.49
Look at the hole in His side.
00:34:33.90\00:34:36.37
Fall on my knees as
the apostles did and say:
00:34:36.57\00:34:41.32
"Oh Lord, my
Savior and my God! "
00:34:41.42\00:34:44.07
There's a popular TV evangelist.
00:34:44.27\00:34:46.58
Now I'm not
negative but I'm realistic.
00:34:46.78\00:34:48.76
There's a popular
TV evangelist who said:
00:34:49.06\00:34:54.81
"Seventh-day Adventists
have nothing good to say.
00:34:55.02\00:34:57.50
They're so depressing.
00:34:57.80\00:35:01.23
Such gloom and doom. "
00:35:01.43\00:35:03.97
Listen up, listen up. That's
what they say in my world.
00:35:04.27\00:35:08.06
Listen up! Listen up!
00:35:08.26\00:35:09.89
We are preaching
Revelation 14:6-7
00:35:10.09\00:35:13.37
and it tells me God is
still on the throne. Amen.
00:35:13.57\00:35:18.79
Now the outlook...
dear old H.M.S. Richards,
00:35:18.89\00:35:22.10
my... one of my mentors
00:35:22.23\00:35:23.56
Elder H.M.S.
Richards used to preach
00:35:23.76\00:35:25.97
"The outlook may be drear... "
00:35:26.27\00:35:29.50
We've got to preach that
list of terrible things that
00:35:29.70\00:35:34.52
Paul said to Timothy...
we've got to preach that.
00:35:34.72\00:35:38.06
Don't give people sugar-coated
sermons. They don't need them.
00:35:38.36\00:35:43.69
And they tell me we don't
need to eat any sugar anyway!
00:35:43.99\00:35:46.75
Huh? Amen! It's
not the best for you.
00:35:47.05\00:35:50.93
No, no, we've got
to give them that.
00:35:51.33\00:35:54.28
But you know,
friends, we do have a message
00:35:54.48\00:35:57.87
that shows that
God is in control.
00:35:58.07\00:36:02.29
He hasn't lost it.
00:36:03.02\00:36:04.61
Now He did have a
piece of land called earth.
00:36:05.46\00:36:10.72
He made it.
00:36:11.12\00:36:13.11
And that's why we've got to
again come back to this creation
00:36:14.48\00:36:17.55
business: He made it.
00:36:17.65\00:36:20.25
Ah, you know...
Evolution, evolution, evolution.
00:36:22.12\00:36:26.09
If evolution can
produce you or you and you,
00:36:26.39\00:36:31.04
a person with this
system that we have,
00:36:31.34\00:36:34.86
this blood circulation,
this neurological system,
00:36:35.06\00:36:39.10
this cranium that
holds a brain that can...
00:36:39.30\00:36:42.01
better than any
computer in the world, huh?
00:36:42.21\00:36:44.41
If evolution can do all that,
well I'm going to kneel down
00:36:44.61\00:36:47.77
and worship evolution.
00:36:47.87\00:36:49.63
Come on now. If
evolution can do all of that
00:36:50.66\00:36:53.57
I say: "My goodness,
evolution is wonderful. "
00:36:53.77\00:36:57.43
But no, He told
me and He said this:
00:36:59.48\00:37:03.08
"I made it. It belongs to Me.
00:37:03.28\00:37:08.09
And even if it
slips out of the family
00:37:08.39\00:37:11.90
into the hands of an enemy
00:37:12.10\00:37:14.19
I haven't forgotten
it... I still own it! "
00:37:14.39\00:37:17.26
Amen.
00:37:17.56\00:37:18.64
"And those who have stolen
it may act as if it's there's.
00:37:18.94\00:37:23.99
But the day will come when
it will be snatched out of their
00:37:24.19\00:37:27.62
hands and they will perish. "
00:37:27.72\00:37:30.31
So always remember that
God has never abdicated.
00:37:31.79\00:37:37.61
God has not... And you
can't catch God by surprise.
00:37:38.01\00:37:42.79
Some people act as if something
happened and God is surprised.
00:37:43.09\00:37:46.14
God saw it already.
00:37:46.34\00:37:47.91
Hmmm? Do you believe that?
00:37:48.01\00:37:49.89
Amen. He saw it already.
00:37:50.09\00:37:51.57
So if God saw it and understands
it and is still on the throne
00:37:51.77\00:37:55.53
why am I worrying
about it and losing sleep?
00:37:55.73\00:37:58.43
Amen! Huh?
00:37:58.63\00:38:00.11
God saw it; He
made it; it's His.
00:38:00.41\00:38:03.00
He didn't change the title.
00:38:03.20\00:38:04.65
A title to that
land... it belongs to Him!
00:38:04.86\00:38:08.82
Now I'll tell you a little
story. It came to me out of
00:38:09.12\00:38:11.95
Las Vegas I guess and
somebody told me this story.
00:38:12.05\00:38:15.13
I read it in the
paper or somewhere
00:38:15.33\00:38:16.30
where one of these fellows
that worked on the... on the
00:38:16.33\00:38:20.29
what do you call those
boards that they use over there
00:38:20.49\00:38:23.57
to gamble and
so forth and so on?
00:38:23.77\00:38:25.29
I've been in Las Vegas a
couple of times for meetings.
00:38:25.49\00:38:28.01
I went there... The brethren
said go for a meeting there.
00:38:28.21\00:38:30.49
And don't you get me
wrong. Don't you come talking
00:38:30.80\00:38:32.82
this foolishness now. I saw...
We went to bed one night...
00:38:32.92\00:38:36.92
It was the
Educator's Convention.
00:38:37.12\00:38:38.48
We went to bed and I saw a
man there just going at it.
00:38:38.69\00:38:42.23
We had a good night's
rest. Got up back for a devotion
00:38:42.44\00:38:44.97
early in the
morning... he was still there.
00:38:45.07\00:38:46.62
Same man... same place.
00:38:46.92\00:38:49.55
Well one of those fellows
stumbled into a big revival
00:38:49.75\00:38:54.03
meeting. The preacher
was preaching about creation.
00:38:54.13\00:38:56.62
Preaching about God;
preaching about the Word of God.
00:38:56.82\00:38:59.09
And he enjoyed it so much
he was almost carried away.
00:38:59.39\00:39:03.55
He went back to the table
and his buddies were there.
00:39:03.75\00:39:06.14
Said: "Where
were you last night? "
00:39:06.24\00:39:07.68
"Oh man, I went down
and I heard an evangelist. "
00:39:07.78\00:39:09.87
"What? You went to an
evangelistic meeting? "
00:39:10.07\00:39:12.26
"Yes I did! " "Well
what did he preach about? "
00:39:12.46\00:39:15.12
He said: "Well I
didn't understand all of it
00:39:15.32\00:39:17.20
but I understood
him to say God gave Adam
00:39:17.40\00:39:21.48
a bundle and he blew it.
00:39:21.68\00:39:25.51
God gave Adam the whole
thing, didn't He? Come on now.
00:39:30.49\00:39:34.86
Amen. He gave him everything.
00:39:35.06\00:39:36.69
He said: "You've
got... you are My manager.
00:39:36.89\00:39:39.46
I put you in charge
of this whole planet.
00:39:39.76\00:39:42.48
It's under your stewardship. "
00:39:42.78\00:39:45.15
I believe it. He
gave him birds of the air,
00:39:45.45\00:39:48.60
beasts of the field.
00:39:48.90\00:39:50.46
He gave him all things.
He gave him a wonderful wife
00:39:50.66\00:39:54.09
and the
prospects of eternal life.
00:39:54.29\00:39:57.71
You've got a tree... eat it.
00:39:58.01\00:40:00.25
Eat that fruit. You will
never die as long as you keep
00:40:00.45\00:40:04.85
My commandments.
00:40:05.05\00:40:07.90
And he blew it.
00:40:08.00\00:40:10.26
This is not nice
language but he blew it.
00:40:10.56\00:40:13.78
It went into the hands of
somebody who had been planning
00:40:14.77\00:40:19.87
how he would steal it.
00:40:20.07\00:40:21.89
He went to himself and
said: "Ha, ha, I've got it now!
00:40:24.69\00:40:28.73
It belongs to me. "
00:40:30.26\00:40:32.51
And so that list of sins
and trials and tribulations
00:40:32.81\00:40:37.77
and terrible blood
and wrath and tears -
00:40:37.97\00:40:41.34
the history of it all -
happened after he stole it!
00:40:41.54\00:40:45.36
He messed it up... he ruined it.
00:40:45.76\00:40:48.94
I can't be strong
enough in my opposition to him.
00:40:50.63\00:40:53.72
He sent tornadoes,
hurricanes, earthquakes,
00:40:55.15\00:40:59.96
all the rest of it. He
sent... he sent terrible blights
00:41:00.06\00:41:03.38
and your crops failed. And
ain't he a terrible fellow?
00:41:03.58\00:41:06.89
He's a terrible fellow.
He took this beautiful planet
00:41:07.09\00:41:11.80
and he blasted it.
00:41:12.11\00:41:14.61
He tried his best to destroy it.
00:41:15.76\00:41:18.08
It's mine. You see? Anything...
00:41:18.18\00:41:20.63
We have heard of
Midas' touch, you know.
00:41:20.93\00:41:23.18
Midas... the man Midas.
Everything he touch turned
00:41:23.28\00:41:26.14
to gold. But this man
has a reverse Midas' touch:
00:41:26.24\00:41:31.00
anything he
touches burns and dies.
00:41:31.21\00:41:35.93
He touched it and it's dying.
00:41:36.23\00:41:39.25
We've been dying ever since!
00:41:39.55\00:41:41.51
In our time it
waxes old... this earth...
00:41:41.82\00:41:45.56
like a garment. But now...
00:41:45.86\00:41:49.78
God is angry. Yes He is.
00:41:49.98\00:41:52.96
But God knows what
to do with His anger.
00:41:53.26\00:41:55.78
He understands all about it.
00:41:56.08\00:41:57.66
He has sworn - now this
is what I read in Jeremiah 23
00:41:57.96\00:42:02.54
and verse 20... And
that's a great text, you know.
00:42:02.74\00:42:05.74
I've been looking at that
more than I have in the past.
00:42:05.85\00:42:07.79
Lately it's come to me
with a little fresher impact.
00:42:07.99\00:42:11.26
"The anger of the Lord...
" See? Anger of the Lord.
00:42:11.46\00:42:15.30
Jeremiah 23 verse 20.
00:42:15.60\00:42:17.61
I've been meditating on
it now for the last few years
00:42:18.01\00:42:21.34
or months. "The anger of
the Lord shall not return. "
00:42:21.54\00:42:25.50
He won't get over this.
00:42:25.83\00:42:28.01
God is not going to say...
Now I have three children.
00:42:28.21\00:42:31.81
I have a
daughter... I have two boys.
00:42:31.92\00:42:34.16
And you know who's in My heart.
00:42:34.46\00:42:36.98
My daughter is first. In
fact, she's the firstborn.
00:42:36.99\00:42:40.45
And people say every
man wants a man child.
00:42:40.65\00:42:44.53
I'd never say that. I
said: "Lord, whatever you send
00:42:44.63\00:42:46.27
that's OK with
me, I'll be happy. "
00:42:46.37\00:42:48.01
And it came out a daughter.
00:42:48.21\00:42:49.33
And now she's
almost... she's turning...
00:42:49.63\00:42:52.09
I won't tell you
how old she really is
00:42:52.29\00:42:54.31
because I'm on the
public, you know...
00:42:54.51\00:42:57.54
And so... But now
when she was a little tyke
00:42:57.74\00:43:00.55
she would do things.
Never did anything real bad.
00:43:00.75\00:43:03.30
I didn't have any
trouble out of the girl.
00:43:03.50\00:43:05.08
I don't say the same
thing about boys, but...
00:43:05.28\00:43:07.44
the girls... And so
she'd do little things
00:43:08.62\00:43:11.13
and I would try to
warn her and I'd say:
00:43:11.23\00:43:13.94
"Don't do that, don't do that. "
00:43:14.14\00:43:15.60
And I overheard her
talking to a little friend
00:43:15.80\00:43:17.64
in the back yard
one day and she said:
00:43:17.74\00:43:19.69
"Well Daddy's not going to do
anything. He's just going to say
00:43:19.89\00:43:21.92
'you're not going to do
that no more' and that's all. "
00:43:22.12\00:43:23.90
That's my daughter
who is grown up now and is
00:43:27.46\00:43:29.50
a grandma herself just about.
00:43:29.60\00:43:31.37
And she thinks
she's my mother now.
00:43:31.57\00:43:36.02
But God knows how to
get His property back!
00:43:44.84\00:43:48.33
There is a... an
account in the Old Testament
00:43:49.70\00:43:53.13
of a person known as the Goel.
00:43:53.33\00:43:57.22
The Goel.
00:43:57.52\00:43:59.79
You notice in the Old
Testament the Levitical system
00:44:00.19\00:44:04.78
property meant something.
00:44:05.28\00:44:07.07
You know, they didn't let
property get out of the family.
00:44:07.27\00:44:09.36
They said: "It's yours forever;
you just take care of it. "
00:44:09.66\00:44:12.65
And so when somebody -
you know, the children -
00:44:13.05\00:44:17.54
sometimes the children get a
little, you know, free-spirited.
00:44:17.74\00:44:21.62
Want to do what they want to do.
They don't want to work hard.
00:44:21.82\00:44:24.69
They don't want to make
those crops grow and all that.
00:44:24.99\00:44:27.54
And so they fool
around, get in debt,
00:44:27.75\00:44:30.36
and lose the property.
00:44:30.56\00:44:32.55
That's a shame,
isn't it? A disgrace.
00:44:32.86\00:44:35.15
They lose the property.
00:44:35.35\00:44:37.83
But the system here in
the Old Testament among the
00:44:38.03\00:44:40.77
Israelites was that if
you had left a family member
00:44:40.87\00:44:46.84
a member of the
family who would be under
00:44:47.18\00:44:52.48
the laws of the time responsible
to get that property back.
00:44:52.58\00:44:56.26
And that Goel would
have to say: "Look, I'm
00:44:57.88\00:45:02.17
going to take over here now
and I'm going to raise enough
00:45:02.27\00:45:05.36
money to buy this property back
00:45:05.46\00:45:07.50
so it can be in the family
00:45:07.80\00:45:09.97
and we can have
honor restored once again.
00:45:10.07\00:45:12.90
Tired of looking
at that property said
00:45:13.30\00:45:15.55
"Used to be owned by Mr. Joel
00:45:15.69\00:45:17.96
and now, uh-uh,
those children lost it. "
00:45:18.26\00:45:21.02
A man did come to me one
time and said: "Bro. Pastor,
00:45:21.26\00:45:24.15
I want to put all my
property in your name. "
00:45:24.35\00:45:26.76
I said: "Oh, no sir. "
00:45:27.06\00:45:29.06
He wept. I said: "No
sir, I can't do that. "
00:45:29.26\00:45:32.88
He had children.
00:45:33.11\00:45:34.88
I couldn't put myself
ahead of his children.
00:45:35.18\00:45:37.77
He had to work
himself out with them.
00:45:38.07\00:45:39.84
But the Goel would say:
"I am willing to buy this
00:45:40.05\00:45:43.75
property back. It's a
duty, a heavy responsibility. "
00:45:43.85\00:45:48.34
And so he would
go and buy it back.
00:45:48.54\00:45:50.91
First thing he had to
have was the price, didn't he?
00:45:51.21\00:45:54.40
He couldn't just say:
"This used to be my family
00:45:54.80\00:45:57.77
property; give it back to
me. " No, the people in there
00:45:57.87\00:45:59.82
own it now. And so
he had to buy it back.
00:46:00.02\00:46:03.21
And if the people didn't want
to move, he had to have power
00:46:03.54\00:46:06.29
to get them out of
there. He had to buy it back.
00:46:06.39\00:46:09.10
He had to get the
usurpers off the property.
00:46:09.20\00:46:12.07
He had to be a
strong man - this Goel -
00:46:12.37\00:46:14.18
to get the property back.
00:46:14.38\00:46:15.97
He had to move any impediment
that kept him, the family, from
00:46:16.18\00:46:20.78
owning their rightful property.
00:46:20.98\00:46:22.94
So he had to be
a real strong man.
00:46:23.14\00:46:25.75
Now here is Jeremiah.
00:46:25.95\00:46:27.73
Jeremiah is talking and
somebody comes in and says:
00:46:29.25\00:46:31.93
"Wait a minute Jeremiah.
00:46:32.03\00:46:33.33
You've got a relative over
there and a piece of property
00:46:34.96\00:46:37.22
in your home town. They took it.
00:46:37.32\00:46:38.95
What you gonna do about it? "
00:46:39.15\00:46:41.46
And then another one
came in and said: "Jeremiah,
00:46:41.76\00:46:44.37
will you please
buy that field? "
00:46:44.57\00:46:46.84
That's my talk
tonight: Buy That Field!
00:46:47.14\00:46:50.96
Jeremiah had been saying...
Listen to what the situation,
00:46:51.26\00:46:54.65
let's paint it.
The situation is dire.
00:46:54.85\00:46:57.43
The people are going to go
into captivity for 70 years.
00:46:57.73\00:47:01.66
Why worry about
buying back property
00:47:02.90\00:47:05.82
when you can't use it?
00:47:06.12\00:47:08.40
But the Word of the
Lord was upon Jeremiah
00:47:08.70\00:47:11.32
and the hand of God was
on him and Jeremiah said:
00:47:11.52\00:47:14.23
"Buy it. I'll pay for it. "
00:47:14.43\00:47:16.54
He said: "Get it notarized. "
00:47:16.84\00:47:19.77
Get a piece of paper to show
that it has been transferred
00:47:19.97\00:47:25.73
legally from
this family to mine.
00:47:25.93\00:47:29.84
And the family
will be happy once again
00:47:30.15\00:47:35.16
together when the
family property is recovered.
00:47:35.46\00:47:39.50
So think about my God in glory.
00:47:40.81\00:47:43.85
He's looking down and He sees
what happens to Adam and Eve.
00:47:44.15\00:47:49.35
He is not going to take
away their power of choice.
00:47:49.58\00:47:55.55
He's not going to
make them a robot.
00:47:55.85\00:47:59.58
He is going to give them the
ability: "choose ye this day. "
00:47:59.88\00:48:04.31
Come on now. "Choose ye
this day whom you will serve. "
00:48:04.61\00:48:10.01
He gives us a... What
a great God He is! Amen.
00:48:10.31\00:48:14.96
He doesn't have to
fool around with me.
00:48:15.10\00:48:17.80
He doesn't. He doesn't need me.
00:48:18.10\00:48:20.92
But He owns me, hmmm?
00:48:21.22\00:48:24.02
I'm going to get to that
a little later. So Jeremiah
00:48:24.42\00:48:27.61
buys this property.
00:48:27.81\00:48:29.44
What a marvelous
example of faith in God.
00:48:29.64\00:48:33.56
He buys it.
Somebody said: "Jeremiah,
00:48:33.86\00:48:36.45
you're a little
touched in the head.
00:48:36.65\00:48:39.39
You're buying a property.
You're an old man already. "
00:48:39.69\00:48:42.94
That's like telling me
to buy a piece of property
00:48:43.14\00:48:46.22
to live in way some years later.
00:48:46.42\00:48:49.41
I'm not going to
spend my money on that.
00:48:49.61\00:48:50.70
I'd rather give
it to 3ABN, you see.
00:48:50.80\00:48:53.56
You young people can understand
it and believe it and enjoy it.
00:48:55.18\00:48:59.18
But here Jeremiah
goes through with it.
00:48:59.48\00:49:02.22
Now he'd been in jail.
The people are against him.
00:49:02.42\00:49:07.05
He got so upset
one time Jeremiah said:
00:49:07.35\00:49:10.67
"I'm not going to
preach any more. "
00:49:10.87\00:49:12.41
When you preach the truth
sometimes you feel like that,
00:49:15.22\00:49:17.34
don't you?
00:49:17.44\00:49:18.74
It's serious, friends.
00:49:19.04\00:49:20.98
The poor little man gets
up. He's a sinner just like you
00:49:21.28\00:49:23.50
but he has a
message to give you.
00:49:23.70\00:49:26.32
And he tells you what the
message is and he preaches
00:49:26.52\00:49:29.58
to you what God will do
and what the cost will be
00:49:29.78\00:49:32.18
if you go on your
own unrequited way.
00:49:32.38\00:49:34.08
He has that mission to preach.
00:49:34.28\00:49:38.00
And the people rise
up against Jeremiah.
00:49:38.20\00:49:41.22
And Jeremiah said: "Oh,
I'm through preaching! "
00:49:41.52\00:49:44.75
He said that,
didn't he? He said:
00:49:45.05\00:49:46.89
"I'm not going to
preach any more. "
00:49:46.99\00:49:49.06
But he was called of God and the
Lord won't let you go either.
00:49:49.36\00:49:52.98
I know a lot of
preachers had to run.
00:49:53.18\00:49:55.15
But one got
swallowed by a fish. Come on.
00:49:55.35\00:49:57.64
And when he came back out
he said: "Lord I'll go any... "
00:49:57.84\00:50:00.18
"I'll go where
You want me to go.
00:50:00.39\00:50:01.94
I'll be what You want me to be.
00:50:02.14\00:50:04.05
I'll preach what
You want me to preach. "
00:50:04.25\00:50:06.77
That's what he said.
00:50:07.07\00:50:08.49
And so Jeremiah said:
"I'm not going to preach. "
00:50:08.79\00:50:11.94
But he said: "You know,
there's a fire in my bones.
00:50:12.14\00:50:16.15
I can't rest.
00:50:16.55\00:50:19.11
I've got a lot to
eat but I can't eat.
00:50:19.41\00:50:21.90
I've got a wonderful place
to sleep but I can't sleep.
00:50:22.20\00:50:25.87
It's in my bones; it's
like a roaring, raging fire. "
00:50:26.17\00:50:29.96
And he said: "I'll
come back and I'll preach. "
00:50:30.16\00:50:32.48
Well he even said... I
had a young preacher named
00:50:32.78\00:50:36.01
Malcolm Phipps. What a
great evangelist he was.
00:50:36.21\00:50:40.03
A little bitty
fellow. I used to tell him:
00:50:40.23\00:50:42.25
"You're a little piece
of leather but you're well
00:50:42.35\00:50:44.27
put together. " And he preached.
That man preached and...
00:50:44.37\00:50:48.31
And I heard him preach one time.
He got a little beside himself.
00:50:48.51\00:50:51.76
He said that Jeremiah
said: "I'm going into the
00:50:51.96\00:50:55.21
motel business. "
Well now the Bible did say
00:50:55.31\00:50:59.10
he was like that
wayfarer, you know?
00:50:59.30\00:51:01.72
He'd have a house where
the people could come in.
00:51:01.92\00:51:02.89
He wouldn't preach no
more... just have a nice house.
00:51:02.92\00:51:05.50
People'd come in,
rest, he'd take care of them.
00:51:05.70\00:51:07.28
But he still couldn't do that.
00:51:07.48\00:51:09.10
He had to go back
and preach that message
00:51:09.30\00:51:12.32
that God had
placed upon his heart.
00:51:12.42\00:51:15.61
And God's strategy is
this... God has a strategy:
00:51:15.91\00:51:18.87
God sent His Son.
They called Him Jesus.
00:51:19.07\00:51:23.19
On a mission from on high
He came to rescue the property.
00:51:23.30\00:51:28.78
All that was lost.
Luke 19:10: "The Son of Man
00:51:28.98\00:51:33.02
is come to seek and
save that which was lost. "
00:51:33.12\00:51:36.50
And not one square inch of
land is going to be left in the
00:51:36.80\00:51:41.13
devil's control. Amen! It's
all going to be brought back
00:51:41.23\00:51:45.95
into the family of God.
00:51:46.25\00:51:48.42
He pays the price! You
know He paid the price.
00:51:48.72\00:51:52.26
You are not
redeemed with silver and gold
00:51:52.56\00:51:55.68
but with the
precious blood of Jesus.
00:51:55.98\00:51:58.68
The blood of a spotless Lamb.
00:51:58.98\00:52:01.96
And power to
evict the trespassers...
00:52:02.27\00:52:05.47
My God is a mighty man of war.
00:52:05.77\00:52:09.23
When He paid for it on Calvary
it was notarized in glory.
00:52:09.53\00:52:14.05
He said: "Now devil,
step out of the way! "
00:52:14.25\00:52:17.91
As the preacher told us already
every time He met that enemy
00:52:18.51\00:52:23.37
He had the
power to cast him out.
00:52:23.57\00:52:26.00
He said: "I saw him
fall like lightning. "
00:52:26.30\00:52:28.11
Didn't he say that?
00:52:28.41\00:52:29.65
"I saw him fall like
lightning from heaven. "
00:52:29.85\00:52:33.97
Now what is
expected of you and me?
00:52:34.27\00:52:36.76
What is my
response to all of this?
00:52:36.96\00:52:38.94
Well, He wants me to invest
00:52:39.44\00:52:45.23
in the payment also of the plan
00:52:45.43\00:52:50.47
to buy back the earth.
00:52:50.67\00:52:53.18
He expects me to invest my life.
00:52:53.48\00:52:57.29
This is a life and a death
matter: it's life and death.
00:52:57.49\00:53:01.77
We are not in a
little tiddlywinks game.
00:53:02.17\00:53:07.20
No we're not.
00:53:07.50\00:53:09.36
This is serious business.
00:53:09.56\00:53:11.43
This whole earth
hung in the balance.
00:53:11.73\00:53:14.30
If our Savior
hadn't paid the full price,
00:53:14.60\00:53:17.24
the enemy would still be ruling.
00:53:17.44\00:53:19.90
Now what the enemy does
is act as if he owned it.
00:53:20.20\00:53:24.50
But I see the title,
and the title does not say
00:53:24.80\00:53:29.35
the arch enemy: Satan.
00:53:29.55\00:53:31.87
The devil. Whatever he is
called. He has 40-some names.
00:53:32.17\00:53:35.38
That's right. But
Jesus has 43 names, huh?
00:53:35.58\00:53:40.22
"Greater is He that is in you
than he that is in the world. "
00:53:40.25\00:53:43.51
He is a liar.
00:53:43.82\00:53:47.37
He is a liar; he doesn't own it.
00:53:47.67\00:53:50.68
Now why in the world would
I let him have charge of me
00:53:50.88\00:53:53.54
and lead me and guide me
when he doesn't even own me?
00:53:53.75\00:53:58.13
He doesn't own me.
00:53:58.63\00:54:01.32
I thank God I'm the
property of someone who paid
00:54:01.62\00:54:04.93
the full price. Amen.
00:54:05.03\00:54:07.17
He paid it all.
Jesus, come on, paid it all.
00:54:07.37\00:54:10.25
All to Him I owe.
00:54:10.55\00:54:13.50
Sin had left a crimson stain
00:54:13.80\00:54:16.99
but He washed it white as snow.
00:54:17.09\00:54:20.80
What a mighty God He is!
00:54:21.10\00:54:23.07
Ah, I like to think
about How Great Thou Art.
00:54:24.64\00:54:27.54
Oh Lord, my God,
00:54:27.74\00:54:29.67
when I in awesome wonder...
00:54:29.98\00:54:32.06
How great Thou art!
00:54:32.36\00:54:34.53
Coming into this
world as a little baby!
00:54:34.83\00:54:38.50
Mary's baby... born in a stable.
00:54:38.80\00:54:42.47
Put in a little manger...
the feed box for the animals.
00:54:42.77\00:54:45.95
But He was God in the flesh,
00:54:46.25\00:54:48.43
and the enemy
couldn't conquer Him.
00:54:48.73\00:54:52.40
You would have... And He did not
come with armies and trumpets
00:54:52.70\00:54:55.70
and all the rest of that.
00:54:55.90\00:54:57.15
But He came just like you
came. You ever think about that?
00:54:57.35\00:55:02.23
Just like you came He came.
00:55:02.53\00:55:06.32
This is expected of us.
00:55:06.62\00:55:08.72
Do not let that
trouble your heart.
00:55:08.92\00:55:11.93
Stop talking about
the power of the devil.
00:55:12.23\00:55:16.17
Stop talking about how
the enemy can do great things.
00:55:16.47\00:55:21.25
Dear Sr. White said:
"Some people talk more about
00:55:21.55\00:55:25.10
the devil than
they talk about God. "
00:55:25.31\00:55:27.52
Don't quiver; don't shake
00:55:27.72\00:55:32.92
when he comes near you.
00:55:33.12\00:55:34.95
We humans are part
of that lost property
00:55:35.15\00:55:37.59
and the Son of Man came to seek
and save that which was lost.
00:55:37.79\00:55:42.60
And one day I met Him.
00:55:42.90\00:55:45.68
One day I fell at His feet.
00:55:45.98\00:55:48.94
One day I said: "Lord, I
want to serve you all the days
00:55:49.24\00:55:53.20
of my life. " We
made a transaction.
00:55:53.30\00:55:57.33
He said: "Now my
son, you belong to Me
00:55:57.64\00:56:01.52
but I also
belong to you. " Amen.
00:56:01.82\00:56:05.10
And so we made a pact there.
00:56:05.20\00:56:07.86
We made a covenant there.
00:56:08.06\00:56:10.25
And He said: "You walk
in My path and keep My laws
00:56:10.45\00:56:13.72
and I will protect you and guide
you all the days of your life. "
00:56:13.93\00:56:18.85
I don't just have
a personal trainer...
00:56:19.15\00:56:21.34
I have a
personal governor. Amen.
00:56:21.54\00:56:24.43
And He'll cover me;
He takes care of me.
00:56:24.56\00:56:27.84
And every day I must
put myself in His hands.
00:56:28.04\00:56:31.55
I must get up and say:
"Lord, today is in Your hands.
00:56:31.75\00:56:35.93
What will You
have me to do today?
00:56:36.23\00:56:37.99
I'll go where You want me to go.
00:56:38.09\00:56:41.28
I'll be what You want me to be.
00:56:41.48\00:56:43.73
I'm in Your hands, dear Lord. "
00:56:43.93\00:56:45.98
And who here today
will say? Who says now
00:56:46.18\00:56:48.92
in response to my little
talk "I'm in Your hands, Lord? "
00:56:49.22\00:56:52.13
"I'm in Your
hands. " Come on now.
00:56:52.33\00:56:53.54
"I'm in Your hands;
I'm in Your hands. "
00:56:53.84\00:56:55.88
God bless you.
00:56:56.38\00:56:58.76
